It strikes me as someone that needs to be validated all of the time.

Validation can always be a sore point for a lot of people, in different contexts. You have to remember that there’s always a face behind the make-up (for-example) and that can drive some of the insecurity, if their face alone doesn’t seem beautiful enough to them. Some people just have body-dysmorphia and see themselves as ugly even if they’re drop-dead gorgeous by all realistic accounts.
