  Falling In love with you     It is no surprise that people have begun to idealize unrealistic beauty standards. Slowly wanting to conform into what majority deem as perfect.

Additionally, the first magazines in the United States that included illustrations consisted of Leslie's Weekly and Harper's Weekly in 1855-1922.
