I have been reading threads where they put Leo as a superficial sign in this regard.

It should be emphasized that superficial beauty is related to Venus. That is, Libra. Libra is obsessed with superficial beauty, his own, and that of her partners.

Libra is the sign associated with superficial beauty, not Leo.

The Leo thing is a little different. Leo, in fact, in general, is a very natural sign. Similar to Taurus.
The difference is that Leo is in the spotlight.

Leo cannot be allowed according to what basic things, because it would attract attention.
Therefore, Leo's defense to protect himself is to always look good, and happy. Although Leo is not.

On the subject of couples, it is the same. Leo falls in love with the heart, and does not care about the physical aspect of him.

I will give examples:

LEO

Jason Momoa (there is nothing superficial here. Along with his partner. He is more in love than she)

Charlize Theron (maybe she does seem more superficial, maybe because of her perfectionist Virgo rising? But certainly not superficial in love. Here she is seen totally in love with Sean Penn, And he not so much)

Jennifer López (totally in love with Álex Rodríguez, where is the superficiality?)

Ben Affleck (here I see superficiality on the part of her (Taurus). But not on the part of Ben Affleck who radiates love. Where is the superficiality?)

LIBRA

Libra if it is a sign associated with superficiality in every way.

Zac Efron (here if you breathe superficiality. Very Libra everything. From the superficial air of Zac Efron, and the insipid relationship with a partner. Totally superficial)

https://e00-telva.uecdn.es/imagenes/2015/08/13/moda/1439467124_10_625.jpg

Gwyneth Paltrow (pure superficiality. All heartless, soulless. It makes me retch. A very typical Libra relationship).

https://s03.s3c.es/imag/_v0/770x420/a/d/9/gwyneth-paltrow-marido770.jpg

Matt Damon (all extremely Libra. Horribly shallow and without substance)

https://images.clarin.com/2020/05/13/matt-damon-y-luciana-barroso___uA_cQWC_z_340x340__1.jpg

Well, there have been a few images to compare the true superficiality (Libra), and the supposed superficiality of Leo.

Leo may be a basic sign, but not superficial. If Leo needs to look good it is because they are always in the center of attention, and it is their way of protecting themselves.
Something that you can see Leo with his partners. He gives them absolutely the same image, unlike Libra, the true superficial sign.

I mean I have venus conjunct mars in leo in the 8th trine AC and love wearing make up and love eye make up! and I feel my make up can be more in the dramatic side although I dont over do it, but I like vibrant colors and love wearing eye shadow with vibrant colors and glitter and making my eyes pop with eye make up. I also tend to wear vibrant colors when I get my nails done like hot pink, electric blue or teal.

I am not neutral or soft, I may use earth tones too at times bc it fits my brown eyes and brown curly hair but I like colors that are daring and pop.

I feel this is venus in the 8th conjunct mars trine my AC.

Also with clothing, red, hot pink, turquoise, yes earth tones too bc they look nice on me, make me look lovely and down to earth and I wear black too at times.

A leo in touch with their creative side likes to be original and funky and wants to pop.

I suppose my chart ruler conjunct Uranus also plays into this.

Yes. I feel like this is Venus. Venus is superficial, and in the sign that falls it will show the superficial tendencies of that sign.
I, for example, have Venus in Taurus, and instead of liking the art and depth of the Earth, I notice that Venus gives me Taurus superficial tendencies.
I just like comfort.

But following the theme of the thread, Leo, as the essence of a sign, is not superficial.

I have a probable Leo Ascendant, and I have never been superficial. If, in fact, I try to look good, it is because everyone insists on this in my person.
Seriously, it's amazing.
First my adoptive mother, obsessed with dressing up and making me look good to everyone.
Then my adoptive father, obsessed with me looking good to everyone.
Then every friend I have, obsessed with making me look good.

In the end, I came to the conclusion that you cannot be in the limelight and dress however you want, you have to look normal and one more (Opposite Aquarius, the masses).
And as for the boys I have loved, the same.
There has never been a boy who met the standard of beauty, but for me they were the guys most beautiful ❤️
Except for a Libra boy in my life. And with that boy I was blinded because we met when we were little, and we met again.
Then I realized that I never liked that boy.

So I don't know where the stereotype that Leo is superficial comes from.

Personally, Leo, as the center of attention, is very exposed and very little protected from anyone with bad intentions. And, as a fixed sign, he is obliged to show his face. He does not have the facility to flee as a mutable sign, nor does he have the facility to control the situation, as a cardinal sign.
Countless Leos have suffered all kinds of persecution, abuse, and mob.
I still think that looking good for Leo is not something superficial, but simple survival.

i have a libra venus conjunct my ascendant and i never wear make up 🤷‍♀️ i just don't really care about things like that and when it comes to who i'm attracted to i really love introverted nerdy guys with glasses who are funny (i have to think they're cute but still...)

i have other aspects to both (leo mercury sextile, sag uranus sextile, ketu conjunct, aries moon opposite, cap mars square) but still they're both leo

i groom myself and whatnot but that's just a given or should be

Sun in cancer women often are very natural, don't like to wear make up and when they do they keep it very natural. In fact cancer sun women are often tomboys early on in their life and then when they start dating start to care a little more about being attractive and feminine.

I think bc I am a sun virgo with venus in leo I love make up, I don't think that makes me superficial, is how I express my artistic side, this and dancing and singing, and making love. Leo has a strong need to express themselves and virgos tend to take pride in their appearance and that is were it comes from more than my venus in leo, my venus in leo tells you more about my style and taste and my need to express myself through my sense of style since it trines my AC.
