Hey! Just found this website and watched a few videos. Ithink what you guys are doing is a great idea and I can’t wait to start participating. Keep going ladies!!
Today was my first day of participating in Operation Beautiful. I taped anonymous notes to mirrors in the bathrooms and stuck some in other people’s textbooks and I have to say, it made me feel really good inside. I think Operation Beautiful is an amazing mission and I am going to do this everyday!
You want to know whats funny. My name is Josephine too!!! But a lot of people call me Josie for short. Whats your nickname. And keep posting. isn’t it fun.
i have this really huge idea.. we could make shirts that say positive messages on them .. at my school and stores around here I will leave positive messages every Where i go
Hey guys! first off, im only 13, but a friend told me about this and i thought it was such an inspiring movement. I have myself have felt and witnessed this horrible self-negativity and i want to stop it. Me and my best friend have started putting sticky notes everywhere. I have now talked to my principal and the school guidance couseler and i am going to put on a presentation for the whole school. there are so many issues with this in my school..and maybe some people will get a different view! thanks so much..we all together can stop self-negativity(:
I found this website only recently thru Linda Wagner blog. I am 34 yrs old and I think this is absolutely amazing and I need to applaud you all for your hard work and determination for passing this message around the world for young girls. Its so important at young age to feel good about yourself and get message that you are beautiful the way you are cause trust me from my experience it just gets worse as the years go by and I can say at my age I still cant look in mirror and truly accept myself unconditionally on regular basis. I have gotten better now that I entered my 30s vs the way I was teenage years but still havent fully grasped concept of Loving myself. Always thinking not wearing certain size jeans or having best body, hair, smile makes you less of a person. I wish this website was around back when i was entering teen years & these amazing people that use Post It Notes to make powerful messages around the world was available to me back then. You truly have done something wonderful here and you should be acknowledged for that so I had write & comment. Continue your mission spread positive energy to young girls everywhere that doesnt matter what size jeans you wear or color of your skin or what hairstyle you have dont ever compare yourself to magazines & celebrities or your neighbor n friends you are your own person! Own it. Love It. Live it! You Rock!!
I just found out about operation beautiful today because I found a sticky note in a book and I reallythink this is going to be life changing for so many girls!!!!! I also just found out about this and want the book RITE NOW!!!!!
I love this site, I love this Operation! It gives me hope for humanity case I must admit I often feel like its disappearing, Humanity that is.
I’ve never felt beautiful. I was overweight when younger and I bullied terribly for it. I started self-defence and then the bullying dwindled down cause its not fun for boys to be dragged around the stadium by a little girl. But the damage was already done. I’m constantly on diets, I have lost a lot weight since I started selfdefence but its never enough for me. At some point..I was 2kg from being underweight. I’m 6-7kg above the weight I want = 50kg. Just above the mark of underweight.
I hate that Im not very tall, I hate that I am small-chested, I hate Im bit broad-shouldered. The only thing I like about my body is that I have small feet, my eyes and my lips. Nothing else.
But I found this site and from now on, Ill bring about a pad of StickyNotes and a pen, post these notes everywhere and let the world know how fucked up our view of beauty is
I just found out about Operation Beatiful too and i can sorta relate with your post. The only thing I like about myself is my back, legs, arms, and hair. Everything else I can’t stand. I also look younger than my age which is 15 and i can’t stand that. BUT…Im soo gonna start putting post it notes on the mirrors at school because so many girls look in them at school and i want to share this with them. I think this website is a fantastic idea!! LOL know the post it notes we got for school are actullay USEFULL!
As i was in the library yesterday i came across the operation beautiful book and i thought i should read it. I’v been going through har thing and to find a book like this has helped me alot. I find it very inspiring and i love it. Im 18 yrs old and since i can remeber i have always been the odd girl. made fun of and always left out. iv been sexualy abused and blamed it on myself and i felt ugly, gross and fat but after reading the book and seeing this website i feel better. happier. im going to start posting notes from now on hoping girls will see it and feel as pretty as i felt when reading the book. Thank you so much!
I just stumbled upon your website and find great inspiring stuff! Your ‘sticky note’ idea is very impressive, simple and powerful! You introduced a great way to transformation! Yes, I’m gonna start it!
I learned about Operation Beautiful a few days ago when I found a sticky note on a makeup mirror in a store. At school we have to do a presentation on a “me to we orginization” and I thought this was perfect. Thanks Operation Beautiful!
I found this website when I looked up the word ‘beautiful’ on google. The first thing I found was an article titled, “How To Make Yourself Beautiful”. When I saw the article, I suddenly felt incecure, and completely utterly ugly from the inside to out. When I looked to the next article, it was “Operation Beautiful” I clicked on this website, and now I don’t regret it. This website had influenced me to put a post-it note on one of the bathroom mirrors, saying, “You are beautiful. Don’t deny it.” The next day I saw another post-it on the mirror, saying something along those lines. Every day after that, there was a new post-it note. I just wanted to say, this has influenced my school a million times, and Caitlin, I absolutely love the way you’ve influenced so many.
At the end of last school year i walked into the girl’s bathroom to find the entire wall of mirrors covered in operation beautiful notes, i took one, and by the end of the day all of them were gone. Today i found mine taped to the front of a binder “Someone is (or will be) lucky to have a girl like you!” This made me smile, and made me want to make other girls smile!
Omg the newest video is Acapella that’s awesome! For those of you who don’t know what Acapella is it is music with out using instruments but to get the sound of instruments you use different sounds mad by your voice its really cool when done professionally
The mission of Operation Beautiful is to post anonymous notes in public places for other people to find. The point is that WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL. You are enough... just the way you are!

I really think this is great. Operation Beautiful helped me realize that I AM beautiful. That’s why I have decided to post post-its everywhere.
I KNOW YOU ARE ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL.
This really has helped my best friend through a lot of things!
I did this at my school when I was at my GIRLS ON THE TRACK, and it is fun putting fun thangs on the bathroom at kirksey middle school.
YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL I EVER SEEN!
LOVE ALWAYS
HAYLEY
