It's like an anorexic looking into the mirror and thinking she's fat, when in reality she's too thin. No matter what you say it probably won't help, because she thinks you love her no matter what she looks like. I know it's aggravating to you, but she probably needs some counseling in order to get over this. Try to be patient, and DON'T agree with her, as this will only make the situation worse. Emphasize that even though you do think she's beautiful, outer beauty is only a small part of what makes a person attractive. Inner beauty, personality, morals, values and how you treat others is so much more important than how a person looks.

You grab a hold of her, I'm talking like grab a hold. Bring her so close that you are almost kissing. Look her dead straight in the eyes and tell her how beautiful you think she is and that your opinion is the only one that matters
