It's a worldwide issue in the whole generation of every gender.

Women are meant to look beautiful without effort. That's why people are too scared to admit they use botox, fillers etc, and hate procedures with "downtime" as people will know and judge us

What they say is don't hate the player hate the game

Thanks for the talk. You did a fairly decent job in describing the problem. But you provided no real solution to women to address this immense problem as an individual or as a society. For hundreds of years, Muslim civilizations have known this issue and solved this well, until colonization injected ambiguity to their values. Please try to learn the concept of ‘waswasa’ in Islam. Ultimately, our free will only have two options to choose from in this context to beauty game - (1) continue to treat yourself as an object and dress/appearance to be acceptable by society that was created through the waswasa; or (2) treat yourself as ‘ashraful makhluqat’ and dress/appearance decent to please our Creator (as described in Quran - only Devine revelation that remained unaltered). Thank you.

Just ware a traditonal hijab outside without makeup on and people will judge you for who you are as a person and not how you look. Some people will still do but you can't fix everyone.
