10 Naked Women Standing in the Woods, Fundraising

"When we first started this project, we had no idea it would be what it is today," says Sara (or Holli, I'm not sure which), co-founder of The Goddess Project. The project seeks to promote positive, realistic representations of women in the media.

Their first step was to release a video of 10 nude women breathing deeply in the woods back in June, but they have now broadened the mission with a Kickstarter campaign and a passionate video interview with Sara and Holli:

With the funds, they hope to produce a "grassroots documentary that will inspire women everywhere to overcome their fears and live the life of their dreams," "a film that showcases multifaceted women being open, honest, and real."

"Movies play a huge role in shaping culture and we need more films that educate and empower women rather than perpetuating negative stereotypes and limiting beliefs," Sara and Holli write on their Kickstarter page.

The women are more than halfway to their $50,000 goal. (Which they are not spending on gas! They drive a vegetable-oil-powered van. Although vegetable oil ain't free.) They're now touring the country, interviewing hundreds of women of all ages, races, shapes, and sizes about their life stories on camera, in hopes that women everywhere will get to see that they are not alone.

Evan Rachel Wood's Gucci Black Guilty Shoot

Meet the Beauty Bloggers

Carly Cardellino: I'm the beauty and fashion editor here at Cosmopolitan.com. I'll try just about anything once (I have the crop cut—my hair used to be super-long—and body wave to prove it) and then report back. I'm obsessed with hair products, like volumizers and salt sprays, as well as mascara, nail polish, a good foundation (right now I'm using Tom Ford Beauty Traceless Foundation SPF 15), and blush (it literally changes the way you look in seconds)—hopefully you can see why I'm in this business. I also love picking out head-to-toe outfits for friends whether they're going on a date with their guy or a black-tie wedding—so feel free to click on that "contact" link below and send me a question.

Leah Wyar: Ladies, I’m the DIY beauty guru. My specialties? Spray-tanning and mastering the at-home manicure. I’ve tried dozens of spray-tanning formulas and have mastered the art of the self-tan (don’t worry, I’ll share!). Plus, I paint on the hottest nail trends every week (currently I’m obsessed with the glitter and dark polish trend). Follow me as I branch out and perfect my DIY skills (up next: waxing!).

Marta Topran: I’m obsessed with making my skin as glowy as possible. That means trying out every anti-aging potion out there and never leaving the house without some sort of shimmery highlighter on my cheekbones. I’m also the resident brow and lash addict. Right now, I’m rocking super long lash extensions that I can’t believe I ever lived without.
