This obsession with beauty is killing people, I'm a 19 afro latina girl and I've been so obsessed with looking pretty all the time that there was days that I didn't want to go out cuz I didn't look pretty enough, I even thought that I wasn't worthy living because of how I looked.

[@kelddsrx]

Sameeee.. how did you move past that?

[@stefhanysilva3823]

​@kelddsrx I am still struggling with that ngl

[@mirishikibacchus6862]

I'm struggling with that too, but from what I can see..I think your beautiful..and that's how I honestly think of you..with or without make up..but I understand exactly how you feel..you're definitely not alone..like I said..I'm struggling with my insecurities too..so afraid to go outside because I feel ugly on the outside..even with make up on..I then feel insecure about my weight..it doesn't help that I feel as though, I probably won't find love because of how I think I look😮‍💨 I usally try to fight it..telling myself that I'm beautiful..but other times I'm discouraged again..

[@kelddsrx]

I always remind myself that life is short and that it's important to focus on friends, family, experiences.. all our bodies change eventually and we only have this one body that keeps us alive and gives us this one chance called life. Focus on why people love and wanna be with you.. probably not because of your looks but because of so many other things. These thoughts help but I always end up basing my self worth on my looks and then feeling really bad on those days I don't look that great.

[@ElinePP]

I've been struggling with that for 10 years. Wanting to hide forever , crying when I see a photo of me, wanting plastic surgery from the age of 12. When I explain this to my relatives they laugh and tell me it's not a real problem. To be honest, I know it probably won't change so I'm trying to find other things that make me a valuable person, and find happiness in my passions . Trying not to look in the mirror and ignore my disgusting reflexion ... But I'm alive 'cause I'm more than my body.

[@mylollipop100]

I’ve come back to China recently to visit family and this has shocked me so much. The use of beauty filters is so normalised now it’s actually crazy. Parents even use face tuning apps on their very young children, exposing them to these toxic beauty standards and showing them a “better” version of themselves at such a young age. When I took photos with family, I couldn’t even recognise my face in the camera, and they refused to take photos without the face tune, saying it was a NECESSITY. Girls in china wear such extreme makeup that only really looks good on camera with extreme nose and face contour, foundation ten shades lighter than their actual skin tones and eye makeup they enlarges their eyes to the point of creepiness. Everyone has the same face, and it made me feel disconnected and insecure. This is a real issue but none of the people here seem to realise it.

[@bDwaekkichan]

You can't ignore it, you can't be too old for it. It is there, it is unavoidable, and it is only getting worse. I took a selfie with my friends 8-month-old baby and it smoothed her face! My phone actually had the nerve to "improve" the skin of a baby! It was a built-in setting I didn't even know about!

I worry for them, and I hope we can help them navigate it as healthily as possible. Your body is your body. Does it have curves, some wrinkles, some cellulite? Excellent, you are certified as a human, congratulations! I hope we can help both my generation and the younger ones behind mine to understand that as long as you're human, you're beautiful as you are, there will always be someone who will find you desirable, and, most importantly, that being desirable is not solely based on your looks at all. It sounds cliche but it's a cliche for a reason: beauty doesn't stop at the surface, and self love isn't about what you look like.

[@escobarines]

Hi! Do not by any means listen to your mother - you're coming of age and you'll slowly realize that you don't really need to act on other people's opinion of your life and health because you're the only one inhabiting your body, and you will hopefully do that for very very long. Gaining fat naturally in your thighs is great, health-wise, it means your fat is getting stored in a rather ideal and typical place for a woman. Fat in women plays a pretty important role in our metabolism and hormonal regulation. I'm talking energy, stress, hunger, and obviously female hormones. Google it if you want to know more! Your mom's generation listened to a lot of fat-shaming propaganda that science has since debunked! There was an agenda behind that, to sell certain kinds of foods... I'm frankly sorry for her. Of course excess fat can be an issue, but you're literally underweight, that has nothing to do with you. Take care and think of these things for the long run! You're seriously not looking at the final you when you're a teenager.

I deal with real life body dysmorphia. The only time I ever use a filter tool is when I want to look less sleepy in a photo 😅 I do not alter my face, my skin, or my body. Living in the real world as a Black Filipina who is tall and curvy is complex enough! I’ve seen these video and makeup filters, and they really trip me out. I stay away from that kind of content whenever I see it pop up when I’m looking to try different makeup looks or hairstyles. I try to find creators who don’t rely heavily on filters to create, because that’s how I’m tryna be out here, online and off! I found this video extremely validating. I’d rather work on myself in real life and show THAT in my content 💕

[@thewhitefang11]

I remember going back to Korean school after I was really sick. Like I wouldn’t eat anything, and anything I did eat I just threw up. So naturally, I lost about 10-15 pounds. My Korean school teacher looked at me and announce to the whole class “Doesn’t Blake look so much more skinnier and prettier?” Like I was already self conscious in the beginning, but that comment made me want to cry. Like how my mom’s side is more conservative, and they were all born and raised in Korea. I remember while visiting Korea they would say stuff about how “We fat ones can’t eat it.” Like, I’m exercising, but it won’t work. I can’t loose weight. I hate it. I really don’t like beauty standards, but especially if kids and teens are pressured into giving into it. All those comments made me want to give up eating anything because I wasn’t hungry. I didn’t have an appetite, so that I could look pretty and skinny like the other girls at school.

omg, this is scary! We all know that what you see in magazines and on tv are not real, we know there's photoshop and editing but the whole body/face tuning that East Asia has is on another level! There were SO many times where I'd see a picture of the "doujin" makeup on pinterest and tried to do that make up on myself only to fail, thinking I'm just not good at putting on makeup but now I'm pretty sure it's just a filter! I mean there are people who are really good at makeup (I think, not really sure anymore lol). Anyway thank you SO much for shining the light on this! I can give up on trying to apply the filter with irl makeup!

This video also points out that not everything you see on social media has to be real, i remember going through the "Douyin" side of Pinterest and I saw a bunch of images of beautiful Chinese girls, so beautiful that it almost looked like AI. It made 14 year old me feel so insecure. I had no idea that those pictures were heavily edited, I became so insecure to a point where i would cover mirrors just so i wouldn't have to look at myself and feel disappointed, the idea of taking pictures also seemed like a nightmare to me. The chase for beauty is really toxic in today's world, especially in Asia.

its a big reason im not on many social media. i have never had big issue with my appearance, but everything has this natural filter. even what should be a colour filter, squishes my chin and nose down. it makes me feel uncomfortable. because its like, this is how its preffered. even if i like myself, i find myself to play into it, because, i do find i like myself like that more. but its dangerous, because its not real. so i look in the mirror with a new knowledge, if i could just shave some of these things down, if i could be LESS, i would be worth MORE. which is not true. i love the human form, and its sad we all feel this pressure.

Something similar actually happened to me. Recently my school took some pics of me for the student card and when i recived it i was photoshopped, my face was smaller, my neck basicaly didn't existed and my acne didn't existed either ( i have big cheeks [since i was born] covered with acne and i'm comepletely fine with it). And for those wondering if i live somewhere i asia, the answer is no, i live in Brazil

[@UlzanaDallas]

This is WILD! I’m so happy i don’t live in Asia.

The most I do to photo shop is to remove a booger I didn’t notice while taking the picture 😂

[@jeremifrancisco1]

Damn, don’t people notice the so obvious alterations, are people so oblivious to it?

[@annetteareid4128]

I was 16 when I realised the reason none of the pupils photographs on the walls had acne was because the school had been photoshopping it out. I only realised because I had a photo of me on the wall with completely clear skin when I knew I was having a huge breakout at the time. They did not ask if photoshopping was okay. I mean what teenager does not have spots at some time.

I am currently in Vietnam and oh my gosh the people are all so pretty and lovely in real life. When I exchanged my Instagram with some people and saw their profiles, it really shocked me to see their completely different online persona. In some Hotels I got skin whitening shower gel and the Models on billboards Just don't look human. I hope somehow this extreme trend in south east asia just dissapears..

I'm'n'a be honest: I'm a man, and not ashamed that I watch Zoe videos ... but that sponsor block caught me off guard

[@TheMarvelsEdits-ce7ux]

I used to use this app that I think is Korean, and make videos on it when I was really little. (Not for social media, just for myself for fun) Not too long ago did i realize how light it made my skin, and how there was not a single "natural" filter that did not alter my face in some way.

[@lalalanf2955]

When Zoe said it's easier to edit your required results in pictures than actually work on body, suddenly I got reminded of 1st half of the movie WALL E where everyone were shown to be on their own virtual world. Where they'd completely forgotten about real human connection.

[@yanamagera]

I'm a classically trained artist. 9-heads body, meaning the height of a person equals to 9 head lengths, is not natural at all. It is not possible! The proportion is 7 heads, 8 with really tall people.

[@kyle__dotme]

1:38 - im guilty to this. i really just hate it when i dont look presentable in that pic but they still post it anw ugh

[@lou__ley]

I LOVE Zoe but have to say I always have mixed feelings about this “embrace your natural beauty” message coming from an actual natural beauty. Don’t want to sound bitter, but like…it would take filters upon filters for me to look as cute. Idk. It’s weird. Please keep making these commentaries though, Zoe, I really do find them so fascinating and well-researched!

[@Tiny_Koi]

The beauty of people doesnt live in their skin, it lives in their hearts. I understand what you are saying but you need to be kinder to yourself. I used to think I was ugly because I used to compare myself to every other person, I wanted to be someone else. Beauty is in almost every person ive met its just that beauty isn't uniform like social media and magazines tell you it is.

[@lou__ley]

@@Tiny_Koi thank you, I do understand that. And I appreciate your kind words! There are many aspects of my appearance that I’m really happy with, but it’s those few big issues I have that keep me from being 100% content with myself. I do also try to be as kind and “beautiful” on the inside as I can, but of course that is its own thing and even though it’s even more important, and I totally get what you are saying, it’s ultimately unrelated to physical appearance. Idk. Maybe I’m naive to a bigger truth that will set me free one day but I doubt it so long as I have to keep living in a society 🥴

[@andromedamessier3176]

Nah it just seems to me that your face doesn’t fit your OWN beauty standard. That doesn’t mean you’re not pretty. My sis is like that.

[@lou__ley]

@@andromedamessier3176 yeah, I can see that. I think you’re right. But… man it sucks since my opinion is the one that matters most 😅

[@user-bi8ko7kc6h]

Similar to lip fillers and bbl here in the west 😅

[@Bulmachan224]

It's funny cause I naturally have the under eye thing when I'm really tired lol

[@kendramarkworth6855]

We are getting closer and closer to Ready Player 1 every day. Pretty soon, we won't be seen outside our screens anymore.

Their bodies on camera: beautiful The fence in the background: ~~~~~~~~

[@alishersarimsaqov3948]

As long as you use this kind of filters and cameras, you'll want to don't show off yourself , don't want to live in a real life and judge yourself for not being beautiful so it leads to stress and other health issues. That's why I think being thankful for who and how you are is the best way to LIVE IN THE REAL LIFE because in this way, you don't judge yourself and spend more time with your family, friends, favorite activities,sport s and so on. I have something to tell you if you are reading this. 👇 Get more real friends rather than subscribers. Be clean. Believe and love yourself. Respect and spend more time with your family/friends/relatives. Learn usuful things. Find out who you actually are.❤

[@jungshooked6532]

Why do people not understand that every person is made different and is not supposed to fit in one freaking beauty standard, also the concept of inner beauty is vanishing these days It's bad

[@Raba742]

👌🏻so true
