>>228544Yeah to a certain degree. It's definitely worth having a good skincare routine, but some people can wash with a fucking bar of Dove and put body lotion on their face and look great.
I don't know if it'll make you feel any better but the girl in the pic definitely has something done to her lips so that ain't natural, to start. Oftentimes I see people who look like they have flawless skin and they're just wearing very natural makeup.

I rarely wear much makeup. I look alright.
Some tips:
-Accept your imperfections. You will go straight for the makeup if you don't.
-Groom your eyebrows! Whatever needs to be done, do that. Don't overpluck them and find a style that fits your face.
-Wear sunscreen
-Wash your face regularly with a good facial soap or cleanser
-Keep your face moisturized, and not oily
-Depending on skin type, use other topicals as needed (I have acne, so I use medications, and for dryness, I use petroleum jelly, cortizone as needed, argan oil, eye cream, etc.)
-Drink plenty of fluids as needed, eat well, and make sure you aren't deficient in any vitamins/nutrients
-Try to just feel decent/happy in general, and I promise it'll show in your face
OT but also, I'm pretty sure OP pic's eyebrows are filled in, and she may be wearing mascara. It's totally possible she is barefaced, but camera and lighting do a lot for your face too. My looks are similar to hers, and tbh it's all angles, having a good skin day, and making sure the camera isn't high-def enough to pick out my flaws…

-glycerin soap
-raw honey (w/ comb is best) every 3 or so days for exfoliating
-rose water after shower
-rose hip oil every day or two

Honey and bee propolis products are a godsend. I highly recommend pic related, it will moisturize the fuck out of your face, brighten your skin, help clear up acne due to its natural antibacterial quality, and make your face feel soft and plush as a baby's ass.

>>257186I know women far up in their 50s that look pretty without makeup or just a little mascara, because they have a certain glow and confidence that no makeup can give.
But no, if we talk in society's standards for beauty, I think most people lose it rather quickly.
I honestly think that it's sometimes better to accept that you'll never be as physically beautiful as the people whose beauty you envy. The world is full of people who don't give a damn about what you look like as long as you're not a shallow asshole yourself (and have proper hygiene). People like that will think you're pretty because of who you are, not what's on your face.
I used to roll my eyes at people who go about preaching how "everyone is beautiful", but I find them a lot more enjoyable to be with than with someone I know is staring at my lack of a proper jawline and thinks it gives them an excuse to see me as lesser than them.

I realize a lot of you are really young and really stupid, but the level of importance some of you put towards appearance is just sad.

>glycerin soapHydrating and can come in simple, low-irritant bars
-raw honey (w/ comb is best) every 3 or so days for exfoliating
Honey is anti-bacterial and good for inflammation. The comb will add minimal physical exfoliation.
-rose water after shower
If you buy a legit form, it can hydrate, has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and smells really damn good. While some blogs claim it has Vitamin C and A in significant quantities, I can’t find any legitimate sources which claim the same.
-rose hip oil every day or two
Helps with moisture, aging, etc (but evidence is iffy if it’s any different than just using any other oil)

http://lpi.oregonstate.edu/mic/health-disease/skin-health/vitamin-CBut as you just listed brands or general products such as “glycerin soap,” it’s hard to know exactly what you’re recommending and the vitamin contents.
I advise everybody to always check the ingredients of products, and not just go by brand. Also really really try to get cruelty free alternatives. It’s not that hard. No product is actually a miracle, one of a kind product. There are alternatives that do the exact same thing. Essentially what you’re going for is moisturizing, exfoliating, and low irritant formulas. Different ingredients may offer more or less anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, etc effects. If you have any skin concerns, go to a licensed and trusted dermatologist. Do not use any harsh products or products you may have an allergy to or ones which will make your condition worse. It can be hard to know what those are, so always err on the side of caution.

To my fellow muricans, if you want to look youthful for as long as possible, buy some SPF 50 PA++++ Japanese sunscreen and wear it every single day. American sunscreen is decades behind the rest of the world thanks to the FDA. Not only does Japanese sunscreen protect you better from the sun, it is more pleasant to use, which makes you more likely to use it every day. It's not thick and goopy, it has a pleasant water gel texture and won't leave a white mask on your face.
Do research on the best ingredients for your skin before buying. Pic related is highly rated, but it has a high alcohol content and added fragrance, so not good sensitive skin.
No. 257309
>>257304>won't leave a white mask on your face.Any chemical sunscreen will do the same. If you don’t like the white mask, avoid physical sunscreens (titanium is usually an ingredient)
>Not only does Japanese sunscreen protect you better from the sunI’m not sure what you mean by this? SPF is SPF, it’s how much of the sun the product defends you against. SPF 50 products exist in America. And if you’re taking UVA/UVB, just get a sunscreen that is labeled “broad spectrum”
No. 257315
>>257309I was mainly referring to the FDA's restriction/lack of approval for certain chemicals that have been approved in Asia and other countries (such as bemotrizinol, bisoctrizole, as well as the USA's 3% cap on avobenzone – other countries cap at 5%). These chemicals offer the best protection from UVA/UVB, without leaving a goopy white cast that makes people less likely to wear sunscreen in the first place.
Mineral sunscreens (that use titanium dioxide or zinc oxide) only physically block the sun's rays, and if you don't reapply them every 2 hours (which nobody does unless they're at the beach) they don't protect you at all. A mixture of mineral and chemical protection is best, and Asian and European sunscreens do this better, thanks to their relaxed restrictions on the above listed chemicals. (I didn't bring up European sunscreens in my OP, but they are also ahead of the game ingredients-wise, however they also tend to be way more expensive than Asian ones.)
Of course you should do your own research on whether or not you trust the FDA, whether or not you're comfortable using these chemicals on your face, and research all the ingredients and see if they'll work for you, etc. I'm by no means an expert but I think Asian and European sunscreens are far superior and any American concerned about premature aging should be using them every day.

>>257804Not that anon, either, but I don’t think she’s ugly or attractive. She has what I consider a bulbous nose and too large lips. Her chin seems really out of proportion to me. Everyone has different tastes.
The bigger issue to me is that she’s clearly wearing makeup and anon thinks she’ naturally looks like this. Blush, highlighter, tightlining, foundation, brow products, lip products, hell it even looks like highlight under her brow. Natural makeup is not the same thing as no makeup. Even the most beautiful women still have skin that looks like skin, still have eye bags and red patches and fine lines no matter how minimized by beauty products and treatments. Foundation does not mimic how skin looks. It’s scary that people, especially women, think made up women are “all natural” when their faces are covered in makeup.

Take care of yourself and your skin (and be blessed with good skin genetics or a bombas derma) for the rest. Healthy, glowy, dewy skin looks nice even on a meh/ugly face. I’m quite jealous of women who have amazing skin. But I’m just salty because I have acne scars and rosacea.

Secondly, do you really think that woc who were oppressed decades ago profit from poc being seen as more attractive nowadays…? No, they don't, they're either old or dead. Same as you didn't profit from whites being held as the standard of beauty before you were even born.
The ones who are profiting from this trend nowadays young Blacks/Latinas - groups that never had to 'suffer' because of how they look, so I don't see how that's justyfied or fair. Because if beauty standards change again in the future, you and I will be too old to profit from it as well, meaning we will spend our youth in a world there the way we look like is not seen as very desireable.
Of course nobody deserves to be labeled better than others, but many woc argue that THEY suffered because of white beauty standards back then - which simply isn't true, it was the older generations - and you're playing directly into their narrative.
>>260094>And with the advent of feminism and uplifting women becoming mainstream.Don't you know that white women are just as much 'the devil' as whit males? So of course they're excluded from that movement.

>>260160"Thick" just means you have large ass/thighs. You can certainly be skinny otherwise, it's just rare for white and Asian women to have bodies like that.
No. 260171
>>260168No rare for whites, all girls everywhere have this body.
I have i too but i hate it, makes me look stubby and fat even at low weights, i have to be slightly underweight to not look fat because of my legs.

>>260104But again… what are we supposed to do? There is no solution because it’s truly a nonissue. It isn’t fair to me and you personally, but it wouldn’t be fair to woc either if we were still the standard. It will never be fair for everyone.
Again, I see your point and understand your pov. I just don’t see this as a problem larger than us and our generation of white women being personally upset by it. Our feelings being hurt doesn’t mean its completely wrong, since we aren’t the only people who matter.

>>260061I totally disagree with the idea that the instathot look = more open to WOC, especially black woman from an african american background. Many MANY woman who are black in america have some caucasian ancestry and don't have big lips, big butt or snub noses or maybe they have one trait but not all of them. Also "natural" big butts and full lips aren't up to standard for the "instathot" look and you can see really clearly by looking at old hip hop videos so must of these girl ends up getting plastic surgery or ass shots anyway, like Cardi B and Nicki Minaj.

On topic, beauty correlates with health. Exercise, drink water, eat healthy, get sleep, etc. It's fairly simple. And wash your sheets. Shower less often unless you take cold showers (heat isn't good for your skin). Moisturize, exfoliate. Take supplements. Have good oral hygiene. Don't over pluck your eyebrows. Don't pop pimples. Wear sunscreen. The basic stuff is all you really can do that's proven to work.

>>260357You mean like a huge Barbra Streisand nose or just any nose that has downward projection?
I personally hate the upturned nose and can't wait till it goes out of style but I can understand why people would think it's cute or "childlike"

No. 260370
>>260369Yeah no. Science absolutely backs up certain skincare products like sunscreen, chemical exfoliants, retinoids, vitamins a and c, etc, it's up to you to do the research so you don't buy from the wrong businessman. It's also useless advice for anyone with cystic acne (diet and exercise doesn't fucking fix it, accutane does).
Sunscreen at the very least is a must, humans moved all over the globe and are no longer in the climates they evolved in. No diet or exercise will combat damage from sun exposure.

>>260133>White women tend to have less facial hair and body hairThat's just blatantly untrue, unless Mediterraneans aren't white to you lel
Otherwise East Asians, Native Americans and Subsaharan Africans tend to have less body hair.
Everybody butthurt about current beauty trends favoring WOC need to realize that this is not some SJW retribution thing but 100% shilled by the beauty industry to maximize profits. Who has the highest spending capacity? White women. What are features that are unattainable for white women without surgical enhancement, make-up, fake tanning etc? Features that WOC naturally possess. How can we profit off of white women, while at the same time capturing the WOC demographic by seeming woke and progressive? Push WOC beauty standards on the masses!

Looking like some plastic instathot might be desireable if you're some dumb bimbo who wants to attract lowlifes, but (nearly all) highest paid actresses are still classic beauties:
10. Amy Adams
9. Julia Roberts
8. Cate Blanchett
7. Charlize Theron
6. Emma Watson
5. Mila Kunis
(4. Melissa McCarthy)
3. Jennifer Lawrence
2. Jennifer Aniston
1. Emma Stone

>>260433Amen. This pretty much sums it up.
I don’t know if I’m finally just getting too old for this site or the insecurity is just in full bloom because of summer fags but you all need to calm down.
People on the side not having a button nose or some feature that for some reason they think is the stamp approve look that will guarantee you’ll be gorgeous needs to stop. As someone who used to work with models ,there isn’t a one look no matter what the media will tell you otherwise. No one looks at a runway model with thin lips and a hook nose with editorial makeup and thinks some average instagram thot looks better then the model cuz “Kylie Jenner lips”.
Your nose/lips/whatever you don’t posses or do isn’t the issue it’s legit your own insecurity. I had a model cry (she was a rookie so I guess it was the pressure) while I was doing her makeup because of her monolids, THE REASON THEY WANTED HER IN THE FIRST PLACE.
If you want to look good without makeup, from a former professional makeup artist. Take care of your goddamn skin for the love of god. Drink some damn water, put on a face mask twice a week,wear sunscreen and put some facial serum on your face. Looking good without makeup is 80 percent not having to use makeup to cover up all your uneven skin and eye circles

But I agree with your point

On the other hand many of the highest paid musicians aren't white.

>>260438Does that really matter? Hollywood is such a world in itself that it doesn't really represent what most people find desirable.
Most men really couldn't care less about these women and they'd pick a cute fast food girl over them.
