I find it crazy how we all have eyes, nose, mouths in the same place but we all look so different. Even identical twins look completely different if you know them.
Life is strange! The more you know, the more strange it gets... it’s like Alice in wonderland... we are all Alice falling down the rabbit hill, which is the human intellect... Falling into more and more knowledge...
it would be very interesting if you could do a video on why Kylie Jenner for example (and Bella Hadid, etc) look so much older than they are (22/23). Since youth is an indicator of beauty, why do they keep getting procedures done that make them look so much older? it would be interesting to see why these faces are perceived as attractive regardless.
QOVES Studio Yes! You did explain in that video how the effects of fillers only look pleasing when in a relaxed face and how when smiling the fillers stay lifted thus making them look unnatural. (Paraphrased)
@@TheSmiaf i myself have low body fat but look very much like a child (especially without make up); I'm turning 24 this year and people think im max 20, typically 18/19. Now, I don't even have full lips or a tiny nose that would mirror child like features, but looking at Bella and Kylie for example, they have all these features I don't! but there is still something in the face that makes you think they are fucking 32!
Merita Hrustanovic I get what you mean I’m like 91 lbs so I’m considered skinny? but people always think I’m 12-14 lol I think Bella looks older because she got work done so young
People are so weird. When they’re young they want to look older and when old want to look younger. I have a baby face and I love it. I am grateful for it as well!
I know right. Older people wanna look younger, Yonger people wanna look older. Fair people tan themselves, brown people go under the skin lightening treatment. Silky haired people want rolls & curls, curly haired people straighten their hair. Conclusion : Humans are miserable and never satisfied with what they have. Always insecure, always frustrated.
The celebs which are chosen to show that “age well” you are forgetting the fact that they have a lot of money to support that aging to be better than the average people.
There's also something called genes. My grandma is near 80 y'old, has never used any sort of skincare and mask or whatever. She has saggy skin but doesn't have obvious wrinkles and deep lines. Me on the other hand, 18 y'old have fine line on forehead 😭. I think it's due to the difference in lifestyle.
Helen Iv well of course plastic surgery, filler and treat meant a help BUT you’d be surprised how far everyday sun screen and a basic skin care go. A good sun screen is everything!
That's doesn't detract from his point at all. Neotenous and more attractive faces will age better than others. If you take Chanel Iman and compare her to Elizabeth Moss, Iman will age better than Moss. Moss could have all the procedures under the sun but it wouldn't change the outcome.
There are plenty of people that are not rich and age very well. Just because they have money doesn’t mean that they will age well. plastic surgery/expensive creams doesn’t do much for people. There is a limit to how young it can make you look. Some of these 40 yo celebs with plastic surgery look like 80 yo grandmas with duck lips. It may shave off 5/10 years at most before it starts looking scary.
@@nafisa1014 if you mean a strong jawline and prominent cheek bones along with "baby" central features (big eyes/lips/button nose) i have that too. have fun with it :D
@subhuman africancel So when you know a woman that doesn't look like a model you tell her "You're average looking!"? Lmao, maybe the average woman is pretty, whatever, beauty is subjective after all.
You can make a video about facial features harmony? And explain why some People with defined jaw, forward maxilla, straight nose, high cheekbones etc are "ugly" (more say, of course) than others?
They don't have symmetrical faces so when you see photos of them they are not as photogenic and don't have facial harmony like other photogenic people with symmetrical faces
@@arrows2323 you should probably stop thinking so highly of your opinion "if i tell him the rest of my explaination, then he would be destroyed and probably kill himself because he literally cuts himself" wtf is wrong with you
A women did everything in her power to get me onto a flight after I'd been bumped off, because she thought I was a young teenager travelling alone. Cute privilege is definitely a thing. On the other hand, it can lead to a level of incompetence and self doubt
@@user-re8tq7du8c Hmm, this one is complicated. Cute privilege brings on the urge to protect and defend. Men...can get the benefits of cute privilege, but it won't feel like a benefit to them because it comes at the cost of their masculinity. Cuteness=femininity. Example: A 5'0 girl enters a store late at night. She is small, so no one is intimidated. When she asks questions in a quiet voice, people are forced to listen more closely and tend to be more responsive. Her lack of intimidation also leads to more helpfulness from the staff. This is 'cute privilege.' This happens often with East Asian men. A 5'4 East Asian man enters a space and is immediately seen as less intimidating, and thus people are more likely to speak to him and help him. He's wearing glasses and still looks like he's in high school, but he's actually a mid-20s dude. I see this all the time, at banks especially the old women are so helpful when they see a little EA guy comes in, but they switch up completely when a gruff black guy comes in. This is also 'cute privilege.' because his features helped him get better service.
So when babies keep looking at you continuously and constantly, that means you're conventionally atractive ? Now I like babies, you, and them, just busted my nonexistent confidence haha.
most people start looking bad by the time they get into their 40s.poor diet ,sun damage, alcohol ,drugs ,smoking ,white sugar ,sodas ,fried food and ageing itself ,your hormone levels start dropping off as you get older ,they say you lose half of your skins collegen by 40 ,as you had at 20, the actual aging process starts around 27, but ,it takes awhile for all of the damage you have done to show up by your 40s .
Chelsea Mcbride because this guy’s been doing the same thing to me across multiple videos, he just started bullying me and calling me ugly for no reason... i just wanted to get back at him
if you don’t believe me go see it for yourself, it started on the video “how jaw alignment affects social perceptions of you”. i replied to a comment on someone saying something like “i wish my friends would tell me the truth when i ask them to rate me or what’s wrong with my appearance” and i replied saying that i wish the same thing, then this guy came out of nowhere and started attacking me and calling me “ugli” and he even found my other comments and replies that were completely irrelevant to the former situation and just kept insulting me. take a look in the comments. he replies to almost everyone to put in his two cents and brag about his appearance. he’s mentally unwell.
@@drmosaddegh ike the soccer dude is so annoying, all he does is talk about how attractive he is, like it's fine a couple times but on every single comment? Nahhhh dude
as an artist this stuff is really nice to watch bc now I've got a scientific explanation as to why i like some of my drawings more and some less. Overall tho I find in art distinctive faces rather than attractive ones are the most interesting ones. But I think you covered that already, explaining that that is a trait people want in models. But yeah, great series, thanks for sharing it!
@@golovinpress6492 if I have a drawing or painting done I definitely do not lose interest, why would I? it's a face I have studied and spent an hour or many more to work on. I've drawn old grandpas with all their wrinkles and mustaches and harsh eyes, I've drawn women with crooked noses and gaps in their teeth. People are fascinating, no matter what. Those faces, no matter how unconventional they are, are worth painting and drawing. And besides I am talking about art, not about preferences regarding a partner??
Ze Jh i feel that. I absolutely love drawing people with facial imperfections, wrinkles, sagging skin etc. cause I find drawing conventional pretty or young people kind of boring. I think also find myself staring at certain people because just really want to draw them lol.
@@SamG-tw2iz oh absolutely. I had a friend with perfect hands for referencing and I would catch myself staring at them bc they had such sharp angles and it made sketching hands much easier. It's a compliment she hadn't heard before.
Please do one about noses! I can definitely vouch for cute privilege being a thing. People are waayy more willing to help you out if they think you're 17 when you're mid 20s (speaking from experience). It's s definitely different to "pretty privilege" though.
well if you are 25 you should need less help and generaly "to have your shit together" lol. If you need help at 17 - its just inexperience, but if you need help at 25 its incompetence. (its simular to how people are more willing to help and forgiving towards women than men, coz most men dont have "cute and adorable" factor working for them)
@@angelhellokitti You have a lot of learning to do. Look up studies on the effect of beauty in crime, on grades, on job resumes. Let alone the benefit they get in romantic relationships. Beauty is subjective but this whole series is about what people generally find attractive and which features are considered almost universally attractive
I’ve always been super baby faced and resented it bc people respected me less and when I tell them my real age, I almost feel like it would be a shady put down, “omg look young” with an “eww” attitude. One day, I had a patient go through this same conversation with me and he said that being youthful is sought after in his country and it often means that youthful looks comes from a happy, joyful personality. A serious “old” face comes from mean people and nobody wants that. I felt my looks be appreciated for once. For the record- he was a Russian so maybe it’s a cool culture belief
Very interesting!! I do have a baby face and as a teen it pissed me off because everything I did was “cute”, and I felt like no one was taking me seriously. They would just chuckle and talk condescendingly to me. At the time, I started wearing heavy make up and tighter clothes, heels, to look more mature but it ended up getting the wrooooonnng attention. Surprisingly older men who could be my father and I was still a minor!!! Wtf? I’m 25 now and I still look 16... still get talked down... But I will be very thankful when I’m 60 hopefully!
When I was growing up, I noticed that people were much kinder and more helpful to girls who had big eyes and little rosebud mouths coupled with heart shaped faces. I never had these qualities, so I got disliked quite a bit by peers and adults alike.
With celebrities it has more to do with you are so used to seeing their faces and other people like them. Popularity and likeability amongst a large group of people definitely changes how attractive someone can be to people.
Elizabeth Olsen is not weird looking lol. She is pretty standart beautuful. Cumberbatch on the other hand - I think big part of his attractiveness is that he is tall and coz he become famous for role (Sherlock) that is very dominant and powerfull and independant. + his non reactive face. He looks very calm and comfortable in his own skin - all that are traits of masciline strong man comabined with the body of a clasical english gentelman. Tall but not too tall, lean but not skinny, dominant but not threatening. Other example of that is the guy who played doctor House. Im sure a lot of women find him very attractive after they watched the show. (if they have never seen him being silly in the comedies he acted before)
You should also do a video on how eyebrows can either make you look extremely useful, or extremely age, for example eyebrows being too light versus dark her eyebrows, then plucked eyebrows versus heavy bushy eyebrows, I Brows that are too high arched can actually age the face and eyebrows that don’t have a good shape can drop the face and make it look aged as well
Brows depend so much on bone structure. If you have huge bones in your face then thin, plucked eyebrows wont compliment you. If you have delicate small bones bushy brows wont fit you.
I love how nina dobrev is a perfect example of eyebrows. The eyebrows she has now (thick and natural) age her so much its unbelievable. She is still attractive and they are surely easier to maintain. Nonetheless I honestly think that now she is pretty with thin eyebrows she is striking! Power of brows
@@TheRikkuShak That's probably because her eye features are strong and deep-seated, I find that deep seated eyes makes a person older somehow and they are better paired with decent thin ones to balance it out
snake on drugs I agree, but it also it depends on how full your face is. I have delicate bone structure myself but my face is wide and soft so I can’t make my eyebrows too thin otherwise it’ll make me look puffy.
I have a baby face genetically. Both my parents are baby faced. It’s so horrible in your teenage to have baby face cz when your friends are enjoying their teenage period,you look like a 12/13/14 years old baby. But when the age of hair whitening comes, it’s a blessing to have baby face. You look like a teenager in that time.
@@golovinpress6492 ew what? Bitch Too bad you can't go to a surgeon to fix that attitude. You can have a slightly forehead which still suits the face if everything else is in harmony. Meanwhile you are sitting here thinking that you have some magnetic looks which makes everyone cream their pants. Get a mirror and take a good look at your miserable self.
Hmm a flat nose bridge is a sign of neoteny which could be seen as attractive? Filipinos need to hear this because we’re always bashing ourselves for having flat nose bridges lol.
What?? This is so cute why would you hate it? It is so unfair how people always 'belittle' their own beautiful features. I love how all eastern asians look I just cant when I hear you don't like your features haha But I am the same, women from the Balkans often have strong features (for me it's my jaw and it's not even that masculine) and I HATE it. Although I have seen so many models with strong jaws in recent years 🙏
I once read a little excerpt about how masculine male + feminine female pairings, make for unattractive daughters. So I suppose its implying feminine male + feminine female = attractive daughters (on average)? Id be curious if you could expand more upon this, I swear there was a research paper but I don't remember where I read this tbh. I should say that I'm curious if its the same for sons as well, depending on the pairing. Also this might be steering into more genetics territory but Id be curious to know you can find any info about which features are more heritable. I've heard certain features from the father are more likely to be passed on, and certain features of the mother. (cheekbones, eye area/shape, lip size, etc)
It's probably feminist BS, because they're trying to make men as pussified and simpified as possible. They want to breed as many feminine men as they can. Masculine men make beautiful daughters as much as pretty boys do and it also just depends on what you consider beautiful. I personally like women with strong square jawlines and consider them the most beautiful if everything else is on point, but some men don't.
@@Longlostpuss what's feminists got to do with this? They can interpret it wrong but I still can't understand why they would prefer more feminine looking males over masculine looking. If I wanted to fuck a girl - I'd choose a girl, not a pretty boy.
@@Longlostpuss I reassure you it wasn't feminist BS lmao. I don't browse those type of sites whatsoever. It was a research paper which had no affiliation to that sort of thing. If I manage to come across it I'll link it here. The hard part is finding the right key words to search for it (Google is ass)
@@XY-dc4ypNot true, there are a lot of celebrities who don't date only 20 years old and they still have money and fame. Also this happens with women too sometimes, Madonna is famous and she looks for young partners
Lol I actually have a baby face which literally is very similar to my childhood face....but I always thought it's a disadvantage from attractiveness point of view coz most of the guys around me like more mature and supposedly "hot" faces. I kinda always felt weird coz by body has become an adult's but my face still looks same as before
I used to hate when people assumed I was in middle school *after* I graduated college. But now that I’m officially in my mid-twenties I take it as a compliment 😊
Would be helpful.I mean,a large forehead can mean youthfullness and in any case can be covered by bangs but what happens when you have a really small forehead and a tendency to a pearshaped face shape?
Michael vsauce made a video about it it's called what make things cute and while analyzing stuff he said that bigger foreheads are attractive on females and cute since its what babies look like And it's true I find girls with bigger foreheads more attractive
Bit late to comment this lol But as someone who looks more androgynous face-wise, I would say it's just a mix of masculine and feminine features, as well as hair. I'm East-Asian so that probably helps since the lines between feminine and masculine blur a bit more for my race. My more feminine features would be: a softer jawline, full lips, and smaller but still prominent nose Masculine features: eyes (narrow flat monolids), thicker brows, short hair
these are so interesting, I have always had a baby face (I guess now I can start regarding it as neotenus) and noticed people always rushing to help me out in situations where I never asked for help. I once asked someone why they are doing this after noticing it time and time again and they responded "You looked like you were struggling" which I found highly reflective on what people must assume when they look at my face. Even a beard doesn't help. Anyway this whole channel is really great and I applaud all the research you are putting into this!
Yay, one that I finally win! At almost 32 most people think I am in my early twenties. I don’t have a large forehead, but it is round and my eyes are large and nose is “button” shaped with a very flat bridge. I look almost the same as I did in kindergarten. It’s a bit odd though that the first page of the study on Japanese people you posted just refers to skin color. I thought you were going to talk about it and how it relates to neoteny, but you never mention it.
I think it's good to delve into what women find attractive for other women. I think women prefer masculine features on other women, which is why female beauty standards lean more masculine (such as stronger jawlines, longer faces, smaller foreheads, slimmer body frames devoid of most curves, etc) when women are comparing themselves to each other while female beauty standards for men lean more feminine (everything you've explained in these videos) which could explain why most women are unhappy with themselves since they are trying to fit into more masculine ideal? It's food for thought.
What I’ve seen is that men tend to be open minded towards women’s appearances for the most part whether they know it or not they end up finding thin and curvy, short and tall women attractive. As long as a woman fits basic beauty standards men will find her good looking lol. I think women are unhappy bc society convinces us that we wouldn’t be enough eitherways. Im thin and tall and feel insecure about my body but my short and curvy friends feel insecure about their body types too, and of course social media has made us compare ourselves to fake unattainable standards.
@@tanishapandey400 It's not "Society" that's made you feel the way that you do: other women have made you feel that way. Women start all of the beauty trends, not men, so you should direct your attention towards the people starting, and perpetuating, these ridiculous standards. Women are also just more likely to feel insecure because women naturally compare themselves to other women, so they will pick up on which woman gets the most attention and compare themselves to her.
I remember reading that it was the opposite at least for straight women. Straight Women tends to prefer more feminine features on women because of projection. Those feminine traits can effect what makes somewhere pass as a women or not, so it's just assumed the more feminine traits the more 'womanly' a woman is if that makes sense. I can't remember where I read it though
@@amandasmith4089 But if that were the case then why do Instagram models and models in general, who look more masculine, have such a large female following and admiration? Most of these instagram models are famous because of other women, and where most of the beauty trends come from, while men tend to go for the more feminine-looking instagram models.
I has an older looking face. Like when i entered college, they thought i was a senior and ready to graduate. But now, my face just stays the same or is even younger looking than my peers. And i find much older guys find me attractive
I’m 16 and have always had a much more mature face. People think I’m 19. And it sucks. This video shows why lmao. Hopefully my face stops friggin aging so much jeez
Hà Vương Yup I know several young girl that have a mature face by age 11, with a strong bones structure that makes them often unappealing to boys their age. But very appealing to older dudes. When this young girls, grows into lady, they never again age, like they look 25 forever. When your sharp jaws and chin hold your skin well tucked and tight, it no longer moves. Me I have rounder traits, and I used to look super puffy when I was younger. Now that Im 25, ive lost some of my cheeks and my face is elongated cuz im 6ft tall, and if i was white, no doubt I’d have a droopy face. But because Im black and when I look at my parents and grandma, I can see our skin itself stays very thick and firm and don’t collapse. Thank god, cause I don’t have any sharp bones in my face to hold it all together
Reverse here lol as a senior in highschool, I was mistaken for a middleschool kid, and as a senior student I was mistaken for a junior highschooler haha even now people are surprised when they learn I'm 27, because they think I'm like, 18/20.
Hope you do one on lips and talk about the effects of both genders, and how modern lips trends sometimes breaks the golden mask ratio but we still consider it attractive.
My neoteny switch got flipped too far! Every time I leave the house without makeup people think I'm in middle school but I'm 24. I'm actually really insecure about it, I'm also thin and not very curvy so that doesn't help either. Thank god for dramatic eye makeup!
I have never been this excited about learning something so props to you! I'm always impatient for what you're doing next. Keep up the good work :) stay healthy all of you!
3 года назад+15
is this why old men seem to be more attracted to me then my male classmates 😐
Hello , I’m from China. English is not my first language, sorry if I had any grammar problems. The black and white Chinese girl profile picture you used in this video, she was a famous internet catfish back in 2012 (I guess)Loll to me she should be Inst VS reality video too.
I think having youthful features is good for men too, because it doesn't matter how longer their fertility lasts, i don't think a 60 years old has the same attractiveness as a 20 years old. In our youth we are stronger, healthier and more beautiful, and these are important things for both men and women
depends on the eyebags, some babies are born with eyebags called tear troughs and i don't think they make you look older personally. But then again big saggy eye pouches under the eye will def make you look older.
It depends, Koreans are super into having a puffy undereye area because it makes them look youthful, you can look into "aegyo-sal" and see how eyebags can make you look younger
@@golovinpress6492 And what makes you think that? Ever read an empirical research paper? They can be about any topic. And if it's well structured, why not? Someone will find it interesting.
Which is strange .. I am white, coming from the middle of Europe. I love how middle eastern women look, I love eastern asian women, i LOVE especially east african women (I am in awe with Ethiopian women) The women I personally like the least are white blondes. I don't mean to be rude at all to anyone. Scandinavian women can be freaking beautiful holy hell, but it's just what I personally like the least :)
I grew up in Europe and I always heard darker skin being praised. As someone who looks like a corpse color-wise (and has been told so, repeatedly, to my face), I can definitely attest that beauty standards vary a lot even if they tend to relate strongly to the upper class. That is to say, when rich people stayed inside and pale, versus now, when they go tan all-year round. Anyways, sorry for the saga I just wrote, but basically, you can't just say that the beauty stendard is white because of colonisation, there are other factors to it.
Thaïs Wei Just because you hear darker skin is praised doesn’t mean white is not the standard of beauty. Look at the advertisements around you, look at the media and what they promote, just type “beautiful woman” on google images and you can see that they push the narrative that white is the only kind of beauty. And no, one model of color in a sea of white models is not diversity and still means the white standard of beauty is alive and well. Also when a white woman is tanned it is praised, when a woman of color has a natural tan they are still looked as less beautiful by society. Also, having “dark skin” is not the only issue, it is also having features like your nose, or hair that deviates from white features (like having extremely curly hair and bigger noses). Yes, some societies do have a culture where the rich people would sit at home and therefore have lighter skin, but again skin tone is not the only issue, it is also our features that deviate from the white norm. Colonization had a lot to do with it because beauty=power and in order to exert yourself as most powerful you would exert yourself as most beautiful.
Attractive people transfer superior material genetic to their offspring. Which make them a little more immune to disease, and pre-dispositions. It is completely reasonable from a biological standpoint for humans to select attractive people. Or attractiveness have a huge impact in such selection. Unfortunately we are subject to lifestyles which go further from what could produce great offspring. Some examples are: -having kids late; -not breastfeeding long enough or at all; -not having hard nor nutrient dense foods; -consuming too many/much drugs and sugar; -breathing through mouth; -not exercising enough or at all; -not sleeping enough; Believe me. Over time, this will have a huge impact not only in your appearance, but in your genetics as well.
Yes! Breastfeeding really does have an effect because the babies have to use more jaw muscles. ALSO Breastfeeding in general is so much better for EVERYONE. Immune system, intelligence, dietary, and the list goes on for ever.
Hey, LIPS! I feel like you never talk about lips. For me it's something very important at making a face attractive or not and I feel like I'm not the only one that thinks this way. I would even go as far as saying that lips can "make or break" a face. Any plans on featuring lips as one of the future videos topics?
I won't speak of bella as people say she got heavy plastic surgery but about Kylie, she has great makeup artists that make her look older. Sans makeup Kylie looks her real age.
As a lesbian I appreciate that you didnt just take the "because we want to breed!!!!" direction. I've never been able to relate to that but I can definitely understand and relate to being attracted to partners that look like they will be alive and healthy with you for a long time.
i've always been attracted to baby faced women and I didnt know why. Even as a teen, I like baby faced girls. My first girlfriend had a baby face with chubby cheeks lol. Now as an adult, I still prefer neotenous looking women.
Yes! this!! A person's voice give such an insight to their personality, it's incredible how voices represent a person's character but it's such a underrated topic.
What about mental neoteny? The hypothesis that our brains are becoming more neotenous to maintain their plasticity and adapt better to new environments translating into our physical features?
Jolie has basically all features you so far discussed as beautiful. Lucky she. I think even her lips are the least important, yet she started this trend to put filler into lips, even though she has natural ones. Women want to have her lips hoping to become symbols of beauty and attractiveness, while they could not be more wrong. Usually they destroy face proportions putting fillers and that makes them less attractive.
Exactly. I have a face structure like her, don't like that much, intimidates men, but I don't have her eyes, that is really what makes people attracted to her, with all the features we discuss here. I am glad that I go slim, and my lips also go slim, I didn't like them that puffy, to be honest.
Miss Ellaneous yes, but... you cannot deny that this boom to pump lips to extra size started when Angelina became the hottest name in Hollywood. even surgeons claimed women are asking particulary for Angelina's lips, yet her beauty in my opinion comes from completely different features than her famous lips.
One does not negate the other. 20 years ago big lips were popularized to a great extend by Angelina’s meteoric rise to fame. Over the last decade, Kim K has popularized big lips and body parts due to her obsession with African women’s features. To this day we continue to have women idolize both Angie’s beauty and wish to emulate it, just like we have women trying to achieve Asian or African features through surgery or fillers.
Daria Dari That’s because people like some features on white women, but not on other races. Let’s be honest most White women would feel weird going to a surgeon and ask for black women like lips. So of course they’d choose a white woman with similar lips instead. Most of these trends are adaptations of black beauty standards which are now seen as more acceptable. Because it’s not just black people doing it anymore.
I read a lot about neotony faces it's really interesting. Many research papers are available on internet. You guys should look it up 😊. Some research papers call this "babyfaceness" too. It's interesting to see people with these facial features are also perceived as more innocent, nicer and thrust worthy than other people. That's why cartoon characters usually have those features too (but very emphasize). If someone has a round face and childlike features, I highly suggest you to read these articles. I have almost all these facial features and it has helped me like my face more. (It has also explained why people treat me as if I was a teen even though I'm 24 lol or why people always call me cute or sweet (I hate it haha).)
Hey! I just found your channel. It is clear you know a lot about anatomy and what you say is very interesting. However, I would strongly suggest you improve the ways in which you transmit the info. Verbally, try to define all the technical terms so that the audience doesen't get stuck with every new word. It would be great if you added captions (the autogenerated do not catch very well what you say). Improving the size of the font (there are texts I could barely read). Also, you could really go up a notch with the anatomy drawings. It is evident that to you the differences in the images you show are clear, but to us they are not and it is hard to try to figure them out while you are also providing other info verbally. The words under the graphics are barely visible. I took the time to write this because I see a lot of potential and I had never seen content like this. Keep up the great work!
It is important to acknowledge that beauty standards are often tied to systemic racism and colorism, which can have a greater impact on women of color. Instead of simply telling women to have more confidence, we should work towards dismantling these harmful beauty standards and creating a more inclusive and diverse definition of beauty.
I'm always confused about my face, do i have a baby face or not. I'm 21 now but literally only couple of people that i met throughout my life could guess my age. A lot of them were shocked with my age because they thought i was younger and the other half of people thought that i was older. I literally have no idea wtf i look like
I’ve also had a similar experience. It’s possible you may have like an equal mix of “mature” features with more neotenous ones. Like for example: my face looks baby faced because it’s short and wide plus I have a small mouth, but if you were to focus on my eyes they’re more “mature” because they’re hooded and my eyebrows sit very low. I also have a longer mid face despite having a short face.
I have a baby face because of my big eyes, v faced shape and idk I look very naive lol. I would like to have a little sharper face I find them way more attractive
I know that beauty, dealt with in such a theoretical and scientific manner, has no place for a subjective perception but being a neoteny person myself, I find that Angelina Jolie is far from that. I think she's aged okay but not that youthfully well. My subjective self cannot give arguments for that, it's just my gut feeling.
raj agre I disagree. She was WAY more beautiful when she had all that “baby fat” still on her face to tone down that bone structure. Now that it’s gone and her bone structure is more front and center she’s starting to look like skelator. I feel like her bone structure is what’s working against her and her other youthful features that remained (big eyes, plump lips, etc) is what’s keeping her somewhat attractive.
She aged well but is extremely thin, to the point she seems to have cachexia (is skeletal). She did go through a lot ops (mastectomy, oophorectomy) to reduce cancer risk. Apart from that, she’s beautiful.
well, thank you all for your respectful and eloquent phrasing of your thoughts and counterarguments. I appreciate what kind of people this channel is drawing into the comment section (except for that humble brag right above who seems to not reason properly but rather childishly)
My Mum who is 72 and my older sister and I all have rounded button type noses. I do get told often enough that I don't look 46 despite no botox/fillers. I've always speculate that more softer features tend to age less harshly though this was just my own opinion/observation.
I have “babyface” even tho (I consider it normal)and a high voice so people always make jokes about my age and treat me like a baby when I’m almost 20.
Idk if you guys noticed, but all of Angie’s features are “full”, including her lips, cheek, and nose. Pre surgery, her nose was round and “bulbous”. I think she got her first rhinoplasty around 2000, and kept refining it. Because her nose is so narrow and defined now, consequently, her lips and cheeks stand out. I’m sure her jaw is natural. She is beautiful!
Yes Gene Tierney!! She was beautiful. One of my favourite faces ever. The British TV presenter Emma Willis resembles her. And so does Rihanna in my opinion.
This will sound strange, but does anyone else look at female celebrities who are universally considered beautiful and think they just look more grown-up and older, but not in a bad way, just think they look like grown women? I'm 28 but I still feel like I don't look like a 'real' woman yet, like I look like a teenager. I don't know if it's my less defined nose or that I don't have super full lips, I just don't know. But like, I AM a woman. Why do I feel like I look like a kid? Does anyone else feel this way about how they look?

Please QQVES studio.... please do video and BTS jimin and V and why people find them so attractive?
I find it crazy how we all have eyes, nose, mouths in the same place but we all look so different. Even identical twins look completely different if you know them.
Life is strange! The more you know, the more strange it gets... it’s like Alice in wonderland... we are all Alice falling down the rabbit hill, which is the human intellect... Falling into more and more knowledge...

@@drmosaddegh go off sis, YAAAAAAAS
it would be very interesting if you could do a video on why Kylie Jenner for example (and Bella Hadid, etc) look so much older than they are (22/23). Since youth is an indicator of beauty, why do they keep getting procedures done that make them look so much older? it would be interesting to see why these faces are perceived as attractive regardless.
It's something social. When we are younger, we want to look older, and vice-versa.
QOVES Studio Yes! You did explain in that video how the effects of fillers only look pleasing when in a relaxed face and how when smiling the fillers stay lifted thus making them look unnatural. (Paraphrased)
Where I’m from , Bella Hadid wouldn’t really be considered attractive . Someone like young Monica Bellucci would fill in the criteria .
@@TheSmiaf i myself have low body fat but look very much like a child (especially without make up); I'm turning 24 this year and people think im max 20, typically 18/19. Now, I don't even have full lips or a tiny nose that would mirror child like features, but looking at Bella and Kylie for example, they have all these features I don't! but there is still something in the face that makes you think they are fucking 32!
Merita Hrustanovic I get what you mean I’m like 91 lbs so I’m considered skinny? but people always think I’m 12-14 lol I think Bella looks older because she got work done so young
People are so weird. When they’re young they want to look older and when old want to look younger.
I have a baby face and I love it. I am grateful for it as well!
I know right. Older people wanna look younger, Yonger people wanna look older.
Fair people tan themselves, brown people go under the skin lightening treatment.
Silky haired people want rolls & curls, curly haired people straighten their hair.

The celebs which are chosen to show that “age well” you are forgetting the fact that they have a lot of money to support that aging to be better than the average people.
There's also something called genes. My grandma is near 80 y'old, has never used any sort of skincare and mask or whatever. She has saggy skin but doesn't have obvious wrinkles and deep lines. Me on the other hand, 18 y'old have fine line on forehead 😭. I think it's due to the difference in lifestyle.
Helen Iv well of course plastic surgery, filler and treat meant a help BUT you’d be surprised how far everyday sun screen and a basic skin care go. A good sun screen is everything!
But this has nothing to do with anything, his point is just that people who age well are more attractive.
That's doesn't detract from his point at all. Neotenous and more attractive faces will age better than others. If you take Chanel Iman and compare her to Elizabeth Moss, Iman will age better than Moss. Moss could have all the procedures under the sun but it wouldn't change the outcome.
There are plenty of people that are not rich and age very well. Just because they have money doesn’t mean that they will age well.
plastic surgery/expensive creams doesn’t do much for people. There is a limit to how young it can make you look. Some of these 40 yo celebs with plastic surgery look like 80 yo grandmas with duck lips.
It may shave off 5/10 years at most before it starts looking scary.

A women did everything in her power to get me onto a flight after I'd been bumped off, because she thought I was a young teenager travelling alone. Cute privilege is definitely a thing. On the other hand, it can lead to a level of incompetence and self doubt
how old are you?
"cute privilege" Bro,what?
But not for men i guess
@@Ashley-km4qi 21 and she thought I was under 16 (unaccompanied)
@@user-re8tq7du8c Hmm, this one is complicated. Cute privilege brings on the urge to protect and defend. Men...can get the benefits of cute privilege, but it won't feel like a benefit to them because it comes at the cost of their masculinity. Cuteness=femininity.
Example:
A 5'0 girl enters a store late at night. She is small, so no one is intimidated. When she asks questions in a quiet voice, people are forced to listen more closely and tend to be more responsive. Her lack of intimidation also leads to more helpfulness from the staff. This is 'cute privilege.'
This happens often with East Asian men. A 5'4 East Asian man enters a space and is immediately seen as less intimidating, and thus people are more likely to speak to him and help him. He's wearing glasses and still looks like he's in high school, but he's actually a mid-20s dude. I see this all the time, at banks especially the old women are so helpful when they see a little EA guy comes in, but they switch up completely when a gruff black guy comes in. This is also 'cute privilege.' because his features helped him get better service.
So when babies keep looking at you continuously and constantly, that means you're conventionally atractive ? Now I like babies, you, and them, just busted my nonexistent confidence haha.
Same lmao
Omg babies always stare at me and im scared they think im ugly (im not very attractive,, i dont have a very symmetrical face lol)
most people start looking bad by the time they get into their 40s.poor diet ,sun damage, alcohol ,drugs ,smoking ,white sugar ,sodas ,fried food and ageing itself ,your hormone levels start dropping off as you get older ,they say you lose half of your skins collegen by 40 ,as you had at 20, the actual aging process starts around 27, but ,it takes awhile for all of the damage you have done to show up by your 40s .

as an artist this stuff is really nice to watch bc now I've got a scientific explanation as to why i like some of my drawings more and some less.

@@golovinpress6492 if I have a drawing or painting done I definitely do not lose interest, why would I? it's a face I have studied and spent an hour or many more to work on. I've drawn old grandpas with all their wrinkles and mustaches and harsh eyes, I've drawn women with crooked noses and gaps in their teeth. People are fascinating, no matter what. Those faces, no matter how unconventional they are, are worth painting and drawing.
And besides I am talking about art, not about preferences regarding a partner??
Ze Jh i feel that. I absolutely love drawing people with facial imperfections, wrinkles, sagging skin etc. cause I find drawing conventional pretty or young people kind of boring. I think also find myself staring at certain people because just really want to draw them lol.

Please do one about noses! I can definitely vouch for cute privilege being a thing. People are waayy more willing to help you out if they think you're 17 when you're mid 20s (speaking from experience). It's s definitely different to "pretty privilege" though.
He already did one about noses
well if you are 25 you should need less help and generaly "to have your shit together" lol. If you need help at 17 - its just inexperience, but if you need help at 25 its incompetence. (its simular to how people are more willing to help and forgiving towards women than men, coz most men dont have "cute and adorable" factor working for them)
Pretty privilege does exist yet you have some people denying it all the way
MyNamed Name no it’s not a thing.. people that are considered more attractive do not have more privilege.. and “pretty” is subjective anyway..
@@angelhellokitti You have a lot of learning to do. Look up studies on the effect of beauty in crime, on grades, on job resumes. Let alone the benefit they get in romantic relationships. Beauty is subjective but this whole series is about what people generally find attractive and which features are considered almost universally attractive
I’ve always been super baby faced and resented it bc people respected me less and when I tell them my real age, I almost feel like it would be a shady put down, “omg look young” with an “eww” attitude. One day, I had a patient go through this same conversation with me and he said that being youthful is sought after in his country and it often means that youthful looks comes from a happy, joyful personality. A serious “old” face comes from mean people and nobody wants that. I felt my looks be appreciated for once. For the record- he was a Russian so maybe it’s a cool culture belief
Very interesting!! I do have a baby face and as a teen it pissed me off because everything I did was “cute”, and I felt like no one was taking me seriously. They would just chuckle and talk condescendingly to me.
At the time, I started wearing heavy make up and tighter clothes, heels, to look more mature but it ended up getting the wrooooonnng attention. Surprisingly older men who could be my father and I was still a minor!!! Wtf?
I’m 25 now and I still look 16... still get talked down... But I will be very thankful when I’m 60 hopefully!
When I was growing up, I noticed that people were much kinder and more helpful to girls who had big eyes and little rosebud mouths coupled with heart shaped faces. I never had these qualities, so I got disliked quite a bit by peers and adults alike.
Can you tell me a celebrity who fits this description?
@@anikatasnimsaba Miranda kerr
Do Elizabeth olsen and Benedict cumberbatch they both are weird looking but I find them attractive I can't tell you why
esrat al ishika they ooze charisma, I have such a huge crush on Benedict Cumberbatch!
I would love to know why Cumberbatch is such a polarizing face! Everyone either seems to think him stunning or really ugly.
With celebrities it has more to do with you are so used to seeing their faces and other people like them. Popularity and likeability amongst a large group of people definitely changes how attractive someone can be to people.
Elizabeth Olsen is not weird looking lol. She is pretty standart beautuful. Cumberbatch on the other hand - I think big part of his attractiveness is that he is tall and coz he become famous for role (Sherlock) that is very dominant and powerfull and independant. + his non reactive face. He looks very calm and comfortable in his own skin - all that are traits of masciline strong man comabined with the body of a clasical english gentelman. Tall but not too tall, lean but not skinny, dominant but not threatening. Other example of that is the guy who played doctor House. Im sure a lot of women find him very attractive after they watched the show. (if they have never seen him being silly in the comedies he acted before)
@@alexforce9 you mean doctor strange lol
You should also do a video on how eyebrows can either make you look extremely useful, or extremely age, for example eyebrows being too light versus dark her eyebrows, then plucked eyebrows versus heavy bushy eyebrows, I Brows that are too high arched can actually age the face and eyebrows that don’t have a good shape can drop the face and make it look aged as well
Mine are too light :')
Brows depend so much on bone structure. If you have huge bones in your face then thin, plucked eyebrows wont compliment you. If you have delicate small bones bushy brows wont fit you.
I love how nina dobrev is a perfect example of eyebrows. The eyebrows she has now (thick and natural) age her so much its unbelievable. She is still attractive and they are surely easier to maintain.
Nonetheless I honestly think that now she is pretty with thin eyebrows she is striking! Power of brows
@@TheRikkuShak That's probably because her eye features are strong and deep-seated, I find that deep seated eyes makes a person older somehow and they are better paired with decent thin ones to balance it out
snake on drugs I agree, but it also it depends on how full your face is. I have delicate bone structure myself but my face is wide and soft so I can’t make my eyebrows too thin otherwise it’ll make me look puffy.
I have a baby face genetically. Both my parents are baby faced. It’s so horrible in your teenage to have baby face cz when your friends are enjoying their teenage period,you look like a 12/13/14 years old baby. But when the age of hair whitening comes, it’s a blessing to have baby face. You look like a teenager in that time.

I just love this channel. I don’t know why but looking at beauty and attractiveness from a science perspective is fascinating and refreshing to me.
I once read a little excerpt about how masculine male + feminine female pairings, make for unattractive daughters. So I suppose its implying feminine male + feminine female = attractive daughters (on average)? Id be curious if you could expand more upon this, I swear there was a research paper but I don't remember where I read this tbh. I should say that I'm curious if its the same for sons as well, depending on the pairing. Also this might be steering into more genetics territory but Id be curious to know you can find any info about which features are more heritable. I've heard certain features from the father are more likely to be passed on, and certain features of the mother. (cheekbones, eye area/shape, lip size, etc)
Wow great question actually
It's probably feminist BS, because they're trying to make men as pussified and simpified as possible. They want to breed as many feminine men as they can.
Masculine men make beautiful daughters as much as pretty boys do and it also just depends on what you consider beautiful.
I personally like women with strong square jawlines and consider them the most beautiful if everything else is on point, but some men don't.
@@Longlostpuss what's feminists got to do with this? They can interpret it wrong but I still can't understand why they would prefer more feminine looking males over masculine looking. If I wanted to fuck a girl - I'd choose a girl, not a pretty boy.

Can you do a video about androgynous models? I've always wondered about the features that can kind of shift our ideas if the gender of a face.
Bit late to comment this lol
But as someone who looks more androgynous face-wise, I would say it's just a mix of masculine and feminine features, as well as hair. I'm East-Asian so that probably helps since the lines between feminine and masculine blur a bit more for my race.
My more feminine features would be: a softer jawline, full lips, and smaller but still prominent nose
Masculine features: eyes (narrow flat monolids), thicker brows, short hair
Would you consider doing a video about "Kibbe" body types? It would be very interesting.
That's a great idea!
these are so interesting, I have always had a baby face (I guess now I can start regarding it as neotenus) and noticed people always rushing to help me out in situations where I never asked for help. I once asked someone why they are doing this after noticing it time and time again and they responded "You looked like you were struggling" which I found highly reflective on what people must assume when they look at my face. Even a beard doesn't help.
Anyway this whole channel is really great and I applaud all the research you are putting into this!
Yay, one that I finally win! At almost 32 most people think I am in my early twenties. I don’t have a large forehead, but it is round and my eyes are large and nose is “button” shaped with a very flat bridge. I look almost the same as I did in kindergarten.
It’s a bit odd though that the first page of the study on Japanese people you posted just refers to skin color. I thought you were going to talk about it and how it relates to neoteny, but you never mention it.

I think it's good to delve into what women find attractive for other women. I think women prefer masculine features on other women, which is why female beauty standards lean more masculine (such as stronger jawlines, longer faces, smaller foreheads, slimmer body frames devoid of most curves, etc) when women are comparing themselves to each other while female beauty standards for men lean more feminine (everything you've explained in these videos) which could explain why most women are unhappy with themselves since they are trying to fit into more masculine ideal? It's food for thought.
What I’ve seen is that men tend to be open minded towards women’s appearances for the most part whether they know it or not they end up finding thin and curvy, short and tall women attractive. As long as a woman fits basic beauty standards men will find her good looking lol. I think women are unhappy bc society convinces us that we wouldn’t be enough eitherways. Im thin and tall and feel insecure about my body but my short and curvy friends feel insecure about their body types too, and of course social media has made us compare ourselves to fake unattainable standards.
@@tanishapandey400 It's not "Society" that's made you feel the way that you do: other women have made you feel that way. Women start all of the beauty trends, not men, so you should direct your attention towards the people starting, and perpetuating, these ridiculous standards. Women are also just more likely to feel insecure because women naturally compare themselves to other women, so they will pick up on which woman gets the most attention and compare themselves to her.
I remember reading that it was the opposite at least for straight women. Straight Women tends to prefer more feminine features on women because of projection. Those feminine traits can effect what makes somewhere pass as a women or not, so it's just assumed the more feminine traits the more 'womanly' a woman is if that makes sense. I can't remember where I read it though
@@amandasmith4089 But if that were the case then why do Instagram models and models in general, who look more masculine, have such a large female following and admiration?

When this young girls, grows into lady, they never again age, like they look 25 forever. When your sharp jaws and chin hold your skin well tucked and tight, it no longer moves.
Me I have rounder traits, and I used to look super puffy when I was younger. Now that Im 25, ive lost some of my cheeks and my face is elongated cuz im 6ft tall, and if i was white, no doubt I’d have a droopy face.

This is probably why the selfie angle from above works so well for most girls - it distorts the face to make it more top heavy
Honestly at least I can find out why I’m unattractive. I love closure! I love this series!
Hello , I’m from China. English is not my first language, sorry if I had any grammar problems. The black and white Chinese girl profile picture you used in this video, she was a famous internet catfish back in 2012 (I guess)Loll to me she should be Inst VS reality video too.
what's the chinese girl's name?
Yeah her eyes look artificially big lol
This is so interesting. It is crazy how much I learn from your videos. Thank you for all the research you put behind your videos.
I think having youthful features is good for men too, because it doesn't matter how longer their fertility lasts, i don't think a 60 years old has the same attractiveness as a 20 years old. In our youth we are stronger, healthier and more beautiful, and these are important things for both men and women
I love your series so much, I've binged them all. NOW, THIS IS A VIDEO ESSAY. The editing on your videos are insane, just howwwww.
I saw Angelina, i clicked
Under eye bags makes one like 10x older looking
Damn, i gotta pack up and leave then ahhahaah
depends on the eyebags, some babies are born with eyebags called tear troughs and i don't think they make you look older personally. But then again big saggy eye pouches under the eye will def make you look older.
My parents have no eyebags.I worked night shift some times without sleep but I never got any bags under my eyes I only get dark circles
@@merita2359 keep 2 spoons in the fridge, and every morning hold cold spoons on your eyes for a few minutes. It helped me.
It depends, Koreans are super into having a puffy undereye area because it makes them look youthful, you can look into "aegyo-sal" and see how eyebags can make you look younger
This is so well made! Please write all this down and publish it as empirical research papers! Many universities would benefit from your work.
@@golovinpress6492 And what makes you think that? Ever read an empirical research paper? They can be about any topic. And if it's well structured, why not? Someone will find it interesting.
Your videos are so asthetically pleasing!!!
Society also pushes the idea that the closer to white that you are, the more attractive you are. Society has a lot to do with beauty standards.
OneAndOnly Fiqri Most cultures have a white standard of beauty because of colonization.
Which is strange .. I am white, coming from the middle of Europe. I love how middle eastern women look, I love eastern asian women, i LOVE especially east african women (I am in awe with Ethiopian women)
The women I personally like the least are white blondes. I don't mean to be rude at all to anyone. Scandinavian women can be freaking beautiful holy hell, but it's just what I personally like the least :)
I grew up in Europe and I always heard darker skin being praised. As someone who looks like a corpse color-wise (and has been told so, repeatedly, to my face), I can definitely attest that beauty standards vary a lot even if they tend to relate strongly to the upper class.
That is to say, when rich people stayed inside and pale, versus now, when they go tan all-year round.
Anyways, sorry for the saga I just wrote, but basically, you can't just say that the beauty stendard is white because of colonisation, there are other factors to it.
Although the colonizers made themselves be the upper class in the countries they conquered, so, by my own logic, they became the ideal to emulate...
Thaïs Wei Just because you hear darker skin is praised doesn’t mean white is not the standard of beauty. Look at the advertisements around you, look at the media and what they promote, just type “beautiful woman” on google images and you can see that they push the narrative that white is the only kind of beauty. And no, one model of color in a sea of white models is not diversity and still means the white standard of beauty is alive and well. Also when a white woman is tanned it is praised, when a woman of color has a natural tan they are still looked as less beautiful by society. Also, having “dark skin” is not the only issue, it is also having features like your nose, or hair that deviates from white features (like having extremely curly hair and bigger noses). Yes, some societies do have a culture where the rich people would sit at home and therefore have lighter skin, but again skin tone is not the only issue, it is also our features that deviate from the white norm. Colonization had a lot to do with it because beauty=power and in order to exert yourself as most powerful you would exert yourself as most beautiful.
Attractive people transfer superior material genetic to their offspring.
Which make them a little more immune to disease, and pre-dispositions.
It is completely reasonable from a biological standpoint for humans to select attractive people. Or attractiveness have a huge impact in such selection.
Unfortunately we are subject to lifestyles which go further from what could produce great offspring. Some examples are:
-having kids late;
-not breastfeeding long enough or at all;
-not having hard nor nutrient dense foods;
-consuming too many/much drugs and sugar;
-breathing through mouth;
-not exercising enough or at all;
-not sleeping enough;
Believe me. Over time, this will have a huge impact not only in your appearance, but in your genetics as well.
Perfect.
You have a point.
Yes! Breastfeeding really does have an effect because the babies have to use more jaw muscles. ALSO Breastfeeding in general is so much better for EVERYONE. Immune system, intelligence, dietary, and the list goes on for ever.
Never clicked a notification faster than this one !!!.. love this channel!❤🤩
Hey, LIPS! I feel like you never talk about lips. For me it's something very important at making a face attractive or not and I feel like I'm not the only one that thinks this way. I would even go as far as saying that lips can "make or break" a face. Any plans on featuring lips as one of the future videos topics?
Love how this chanel used to teach me about instagram
do a vid on why kylie and bella look older! (i’m assuming cus they have so much angle to their face and high cheekbones and sunken in places)
I won't speak of bella as people say she got heavy plastic surgery but about Kylie, she has great makeup artists that make her look older. Sans makeup Kylie looks her real age.
Kyle don't look older when she doesn't have any makeup on
buccial fat removal in Bella's case for Kylie, it's genuely hard to tell
As a lesbian I appreciate that you didnt just take the "because we want to breed!!!!" direction. I've never been able to relate to that but I can definitely understand and relate to being attracted to partners that look like they will be alive and healthy with you for a long time.
Lol
i've always been attracted to baby faced women and I didnt know why. Even as a teen, I like baby faced girls. My first girlfriend had a baby face with chubby cheeks lol. Now as an adult, I still prefer neotenous looking women.
yeah, Because they are more beautiful, in both genders. A baby face looks full of life
Your videos are the only thing that keeps me going through this quarantine.
Please do this on Chris Evans,Chris Pratt & Henry Cavill
I think Emilia Clarke as a side profile or just overall would be a good study. I find her face very harmonized and extremely beautiful.
could you do a video about voices and how they're related to attractiveness
Yes! this!! A person's voice give such an insight to their personality, it's incredible how voices represent a person's character but it's such a underrated topic.
@@nolimitarmani how does that make you look stupid
@@nolimitarmani not many people I know think a black person sounding "white" is stupid
What about mental neoteny? The hypothesis that our brains are becoming more neotenous to maintain their plasticity and adapt better to new environments translating into our physical features?
These videos are so interesting!!😍 Binging your videos this quarantine!
Ever since I’ve watched your videos I’ve been able to breakdown people’s facial features using the scientific terms...it’s interesting
Jolie has basically all features you so far discussed as beautiful. Lucky she. I think even her lips are the least important, yet she started this trend to put filler into lips, even though she has natural ones. Women want to have her lips hoping to become symbols of beauty and attractiveness, while they could not be more wrong. Usually they destroy face proportions putting fillers and that makes them less attractive.
Exactly. I have a face structure like her, don't like that much, intimidates men, but I don't have her eyes, that is really what makes people attracted to her, with all the features we discuss here. I am glad that I go slim, and my lips also go slim, I didn't like them that puffy, to be honest.
Black women and their fuller lips influenced lip fillera
Miss Ellaneous yes, but... you cannot deny that this boom to pump lips to extra size started when Angelina became the hottest name in Hollywood. even surgeons claimed women are asking particulary for Angelina's lips, yet her beauty in my opinion comes from completely different features than her famous lips.
One does not negate the other. 20 years ago big lips were popularized to a great extend by Angelina’s meteoric rise to fame. Over the last decade, Kim K has popularized big lips and body parts due to her obsession with African women’s features. To this day we continue to have women idolize both Angie’s beauty and wish to emulate it, just like we have women trying to achieve Asian or African features through surgery or fillers.

That’s because people like some features on white women, but not on other races.
Let’s be honest most White women would feel weird going to a surgeon and ask for black women like lips. So of course they’d choose a white woman with similar lips instead.
Most of these trends are adaptations of black beauty standards which are now seen as more acceptable. Because it’s not just black people doing it anymore.
I read a lot about neotony faces it's really interesting. Many research papers are available on internet. You guys should look it up 😊. Some research papers call this "babyfaceness" too. It's interesting to see people with these facial features are also perceived as more innocent, nicer and thrust worthy than other people. That's why cartoon characters usually have those features too (but very emphasize).
If someone has a round face and childlike features, I highly suggest you to read these articles. I have almost all these facial features and it has helped me like my face more. (It has also explained why people treat me as if I was a teen even though I'm 24 lol or why people always call me cute or sweet (I hate it haha).)
Hey! I just found your channel. It is clear you know a lot about anatomy and what you say is very interesting. However, I would strongly suggest you improve the ways in which you transmit the info.
Verbally, try to define all the technical terms so that the audience doesen't get stuck with every new word.
It would be great if you added captions (the autogenerated do not catch very well what you say).
Improving the size of the font (there are texts I could barely read).
Also, you could really go up a notch with the anatomy drawings. It is evident that to you the differences in the images you show are clear, but to us they are not and it is hard to try to figure them out while you are also providing other info verbally. The words under the graphics are barely visible.
I took the time to write this because I see a lot of potential and I had never seen content like this.
Keep up the great work!
Excellent video. Your analysis is like nothing else on RUclips. Please continue to do a lot more of these !
*Nairobi is the capital city of Kenya, the way the statement was phrased (8:33) made it seem like Nairobi and Kenya were two different places
It is important to acknowledge that beauty standards are often tied to systemic racism and colorism, which can have a greater impact on women of color. Instead of simply telling women to have more confidence, we should work towards dismantling these harmful beauty standards and creating a more inclusive and diverse definition of beauty.
I'm always confused about my face, do i have a baby face or not. I'm 21 now but literally only couple of people that i met throughout my life could guess my age. A lot of them were shocked with my age because they thought i was younger and the other half of people thought that i was older. I literally have no idea wtf i look like
I’ve also had a similar experience. It’s possible you may have like an equal mix of “mature” features with more neotenous ones. Like for example: my face looks baby faced because it’s short and wide plus I have a small mouth, but if you were to focus on my eyes they’re more “mature” because they’re hooded and my eyebrows sit very low. I also have a longer mid face despite having a short face.
@@vl2663Small mouth is not a baby face trait
Full lips are
I have a baby face because of my big eyes, v faced shape and idk I look very naive lol. I would like to have a little sharper face I find them way more attractive
Woah I did not know ppl find a little bit rounder foreheads attractive I always thought that made me ugly, I always wanted that flat tiny forehead
I hve shrper face i prefer rounder ones dt look more feminine😆
@@sunlight5106 I guess we all want what we don't have 😂😂😂
Very interesting information.
This was so interesting and well supported/cited!!
Our food intake is also a part in features
I know that beauty, dealt with in such a theoretical and scientific manner, has no place for a subjective perception but being a neoteny person myself, I find that Angelina Jolie is far from that. I think she's aged okay but not that youthfully well. My subjective self cannot give arguments for that, it's just my gut feeling.
She is very skinny, if she get back her "baby fat" on her cheeks and under her jawline she will go back to almost her prime.
raj agre I disagree. She was WAY more beautiful when she had all that “baby fat” still on her face to tone down that bone structure. Now that it’s gone and her bone structure is more front and center she’s starting to look like skelator. I feel like her bone structure is what’s working against her and her other youthful features that remained (big eyes, plump lips, etc) is what’s keeping her somewhat attractive.
She aged well but is extremely thin, to the point she seems to have cachexia (is skeletal). She did go through a lot ops (mastectomy, oophorectomy) to reduce cancer risk. Apart from that, she’s beautiful.
well, thank you all for your respectful and eloquent phrasing of your thoughts and counterarguments. I appreciate what kind of people this channel is drawing into the comment section (except for that humble brag right above who seems to not reason properly but rather childishly)
@raj agre
But Brad looks younger than her, evon tho he is 10+ years older
My Mum who is 72 and my older sister and I all have rounded button type noses. I do get told often enough that I don't look 46 despite no botox/fillers. I've always speculate that more softer features tend to age less harshly though this was just my own opinion/observation.
you look late 20's wow girl your beautiful
I like before I even watch! Loooove this series.
yess i’v been waiting for Angelina.
I have “babyface” even tho (I consider it normal)and a high voice so people always make jokes about my age and treat me like a baby when I’m almost 20.
Idk if you guys noticed, but all of Angie’s features are “full”, including her lips, cheek, and nose. Pre surgery, her nose was round and “bulbous”. I think she got her first rhinoplasty around 2000, and kept refining it. Because her nose is so narrow and defined now, consequently, her lips and cheeks stand out.
I’m sure her jaw is natural.
She is beautiful!
She had double jaw surgery
Do 1. Gene Tierney
2. Bridgette bardot
3. Rita Hayworth
I think they are one of the most beautiful actresses
Yes.
Yes Gene Tierney!! She was beautiful. One of my favourite faces ever. The British TV presenter Emma Willis resembles her. And so does Rihanna in my opinion.
It's Brigitte Bardot .... (ah lalala)
Brigitte, loveeee
forgot ava gardner her cheeks!
This will sound strange, but does anyone else look at female celebrities who are universally considered beautiful and think they just look more grown-up and older, but not in a bad way, just think they look like grown women? I'm 28 but I still feel like I don't look like a 'real' woman yet, like I look like a teenager. I don't know if it's my less defined nose or that I don't have super full lips, I just don't know. But like, I AM a woman. Why do I feel like I look like a kid? Does anyone else feel this way about how they look?
Thank you for adding the research to back up the images :)
thanks for making these 🥰🥰🥰 haven’t even started the vid yet x
You have no clue for how long I was searching for this, lol, and as always outstanding
