My mom has a jawline and high cheekbones. When young people always encouraged her to model or thought she was one. She looked utterly elegant. Her slim neck added to her already existing beauty. But above all, she was incredibly humble about it.
Ive watched countless of such videos and honestly I feel very differently about beauty. Ive seen beautiful people who don't have any traits mentioned. Reality is so different. People have their vibes, smells, sounds of their laughs, the little quirks in their faces like how an eyebrow goes up when they are exited or how bright their eyes can get. Their little mannerisms and personalities. I think people can look at "conventionally beautiful" people and accept their beautiful but the long lasting beauty that leaves an impression isnt as simple as ones face.
@@Luniel11 nah not inner beauty just the vibes of a person and their movements.. like Kylie Jenner looks very pretty in pictures when she has one particular expression but when you see her in a video she isn't. Her face looks comical and frozen. She doesn't look pretty in motion. Hope that gives an idea
@@Ankushdas2001 it's Johan Liebert, not Johan Libert. I saw your quote in description so I assured myself that it was his name you tried to type in. Also, what do you mean by not embracing yourself? I think all should do that whether you are attractive or not.
I have high cheekbones but then I somehow have a round face. As I grow older I'm losing my baby fat and I can see that my cheeks are more defined now. I'm glad I didn't have my face-fat removed. I thought about it, though.
i was always insecure of my cheekbones cause they looked too masculine and not soft/feminine enough, so i tried to hide them with my hair... now i feel slightly better about them :)
@@AngelLopez-ul1sf when did your chubby cheeks go? I'm almost 23 and mine have not gone, though I'm at a healthy weight and work out regularly. I want buccal fat reduction surgery if I get the money ://
I'm 23 and I have my mom's facial structure. According to her, she lost most of her baby fat between 25 to 34 years old. She had amazing cheekbones and jawline in her mid 30s to mid 40s.
When I was young I was into body building. I have a picture of me in my prime. I was the leanest that I would ever be in my life and my jaw line was beautiful. And I still had fat cheeks. It's my mother's entire family. One of my relatives developed a severe eating disorder as a teenager and she got dangerously skinny because - with clothes - she could hide it. Her face still looked a bit plump. That actually contributed to her eating disorder. When she looked at her face in the mirror and photos all she saw was fat. Getting her to SEE her body was the challenge. She was so focused on those damn cheeks. I just found out that I could get those fat pads reduced and have a normal face. I have wide cheekbones and that just contributes to the overall round face with the fat pads, but once they're gone, I think I might actually pull off looking 'good.'
@@deathwolfs69 My first thought was, "Dude. I'm in my 50's and my cheeks are still fat." But then I thought about my mom. She has lost her excessively fat cheeks. She's in her mid-70's. If she had her under eyes fixed and her neck tucked she's be stunning for a woman of her age... Her cheek bones are beautiful and her face is nicely structured now, not gaunt at all. Beautiful cheek hollows and fine jaw. Your right. The fat cheeks will serve me in 20 years and I've seen it in my grandmother, my mom, my aunts and everyone else in the older generations. We have aged pretty well as a family. But I still need to get the forehead fixed... and the stupid neck. lol! I can hide the forehead lines with bangs, but there's no way to cheat gravity and Father Time on the throat!
Aw, I'm sorry your relative went through that. As a teenager sometimes I wished I had fatter cheeks because the girls my crush seemed to like had youthful, plump faces with rounded features and I felt like a boy compared to them. Today I like my slim cheeks, but either way people want what they don't have I guess.
@@MunthApollo Yup. People with straight hair want curly. The curly girls want straight. No freckles want freckles. Freckles wants no freckles. It's a no win situation. The grass really is always greener.
Wow, I went through something similar to your mom. Had anorexia and became dangerously thin, but my cheeks were so full that from face up, if I smiled, id look like an overweight person. It certainly fueled the disorder and my obsession. Thankfully I recovered, 5 years later, but my stupid cheeks haven't changed. It's hard to see past it after being so fixated on this "flaw" for years. I'm interested in that procedure too. I was warned on reddit that the buccal fat reduction procedure can age one a LOT. I gotta look into it more but I'm in my 20s and I don't want to spend the rest of it feeling insecure and held back if I could fix it.
@@overthinkingpremed oh you're still young. It'll grow out, no worries :) the face loses volume naturally over time, which in some cases is a good thing because the bone structure becomes more visible. Just give it a few years.
This video might be scary for some. Because if your underlying bone structure isn’t great losing weight might make those features stand out more. I’d love to the see the video though.
I personally despise the buccal fat removal for most people. I think it ages people like crazy and when they actually get old, it looks even worse. I'm pretty sure when gen y and z hit middle age to old age, it's gonna be considered a bad move. There are some people where a little bit of buccal fat improves their face, but it's rare. The girl used at 5:03 looks worse imo. I know, rude of me to say. If you are thinking about doing this, at the least make sure it's for you and not jumping on the band wagon. If it is something you really want for yourself, then fuck my opinion and do what makes ya happy. Just don't do it, to be like x group, or because you don't think you fit some idealized beauty standard and need fixing. That goes for any plastic surgery. If it's what you truly want, then more power to ya.
the thing about losing weight to make your cheekbones project is way true - i'd always thought that i had boring, not-high cheekbones, only to find out that they are actually pretty projected, they were just covered in fat lol
I'm dying rn. I lost a lot of weight and my jawline looks great now but still 0 ogee curve. I basically have no cheekbones 😭 I hate that it would take me years to save up enough to get cheekbone implants and by the. I'd probably be too old at 30 for it to matter
My facial bones are a bit underdeveloped, so I try to keep my skin healthy and light reflective to create the illusion of higher/wider bones, and avoid hairstyles that create certain shadows.
A video on facial paralysis and facial muscles used in expression would be great ! Ive suffered from facial paralysis and would be great to have a video by you made on such topic
I love that you guys do a scientific/research based aesthetics analysis. I also love watching Rare Lee who does it more analysis for styling hair/makeup/glasses on faces with each subtlety 👌
buccal fat reduction is not to be taken lightly. when done on young patients, the overall lose of facial fats over time can result in them looking 10 years older by the time they are mid 20s to 30s. margot robbie is a good example, while she looks chiselled, her face is a good 8 to 10 years older than her actual age.
Exactly... while Margot is a beauty indeed, she had a baby face before her surgery and would have probably aged better if she hadn't removed her cheek fat pads. Now, despite her just being about 7 years older than me, she looks old enough to be my mom, because she appears to be at least 37 years old. Ana de Armas also has/had a very round baby face in her teens and 20s, but because she didn't remove her fat pads, she looks younger than her 32 years.
@@aricarly that’s so dumb. Women are expected to look younger and be youthful, but to also have hollow cheeks and high cheekbones and the face fat is what keeps them young. Bella hadid is described as he prettiest face, but all the surgeries that she did to fit all those standards aged her by 15 years. But in the same breath you see society telling women that they should always look a decade younger. It’s almost as if it’s a marketing scheme so that many women will start getting Botox and filler in their late twenties.
@@babycherry8103 I agree with you... that no one can win. It seems like the ideal face is something no one can really have (hollow cheeks that somehow do not seem too sunken with time), and that's unattainable for most people.
@@aricarly the only woman I know who seems youthful AND have a super skinny face is Barbar Palvin. She looks like a teenager, but her cheeks aren’t chubby.
@@babycherry8103 Je ne connaissais pas cette femme et elle n’a pas un visage maigre, du moins à mes yeux. Il est possible que ce soit moi qui exagère la grosseur de mon propre visage (puisque son type de visage est fortement similaire au mien). Mis à part lorsqu’on sourit (ou un peu de makeup), notre visage au repos à l’air gros. Toutefois, je n’en suis pas complexée, seulement un peu gênée. Après tout, c’est ce qui donne un faux semblant de bonne santé et de jeunesse. Peut-être que légèrement moins grassouillet me semblerait plutôt bien🤷♀️ Malheureusement, à ma connaissance, on ne peut pas maigrir du visage (sauf si l’on perd énormément de poids peut-être).
The side-to-side comparison on 11:32 gave me an aha! moment that really helped me understand how to identify hollow cheeks (pseudo-projection) vs true projected cheekbones.
I was going to book a cheek filler appt after lockdown but you just saved me because i had the notion that it would make my wider jaw appear less prominent! Thank you!
Great idea for a video! Cheekbones definitely contribute to a beautiful face, Cate Blanchett and Tilda Swinton for example are so different yet both so beautiful partially because of their great cheeckbones!
Wow thank you so much for teaching me an environmentalist way to make my jaw sharper instead of making me super insecure because I have to get plastic surgery
Can you do a video about why most of the people prefer the less attractive one from the options. Is it about the averageness, being relatable, looking reachable or jealousy?
@@princessazula624 frankly speaking, I have never heard of this phenomenon. I know that people choose average-looking people as more attractive. BTW, in which context you are talking about? As sexual/romantic partner? Or something else?
I never thought about my cheek bones, but in the last months I've lost 30 pounds and so they are more pronounced...it's nice too see them finally, lol!
I'm pretty sure I have high cheekbones, but I still don't feel I *exactly* understand what it means. And why are high cheekbones 'feminine'? I never had this perception. Women have more fat in their face so presumably their cheekbones are less visible..unless I've really gotten the meaning wrong
Yeah to me high cheekbones alone dont alter the feminine/masculine look to a person, cause its about how they work with your other features too? Id say generally high cheekbones on women just give me a more refined or powerful vibe kinda, with rounder faces its more bright/youthful
My cheekbones are high but not very prominent because of my facial fat ... yet if I lose any weight I'll be underweight. So the only thing I could do would be a buccal fat reduction but then I could end up too hollow when my face matures like what happened to Margot Robbie. I'm 25 and I'm pretty sure she got it done around my age, but then when she finally lost some baby fat naturally it was too much with the procedure results and she looks gaunt :/ So I just have to wait it out. Margot Robbie can afford to look a bit too gaunt, I am not that pretty!
Please analyse "Hrithik Roshan's" face, he is the one with the 'ideal jaw' in your "how jaw influences beauty" video. And also please assess why he is considered 'the most handsome man in the world' by US Agencies and European magazines
On frontal view my cheekbones are laterally projected decently, but they are recessed frontally from the lateral view. This could be about what doctor John mew says, when you have your mouth open through your developmental years, it grows downward I guess? I wonder what could be done about that issue. Them being frontally recessed makes the eye sphere shown below and from 3/4 side it creates a hideous look
Besides mewing, you can also try facial yoga exercises by Koko Hayashi. She did a video with Dr Mike Mew before and I recently followed her. I've been doing her exercises for toning the cheek muscles and muscles around the eyes for just a few days and am already feeling good about the results 😊
There are cheekbones that are high but aren’t projected. And cheekbones that are projected but are low. Then there are cheekbones that are high and projected and ones that are low and not projected. Most of the time when people refer to high cheekbones, they just mean they are projected. And cheekbones are mostly pronounced when smiling. Every face looks best with a different, specific type of cheekbone.
3:36 That’s me. I’m 5’3 100 lbs and have a very damn skinny and lean body and facial structure. Everything on me is sharp and strong because I’m so tiny
He really did my boy The Weeknd like that 🤣🤣🤣 honestly Abel is the makeup king when it comes to some of his music videos. He can make himself look straight up wild.
Once I tried to see how much I fit the golden ratio by juxtaposing the mask over my face with Photoshop or another photo editing tool. I was surprised to know I actually mostly fit it, yet I've been called ugly for years.
I have pretty high cheekbones however they aren’t very lean, I don’t have the line that some people have. if I get leaner, drop some body fat, it’ll look much more prominent. Although being lean is hard to maintain, thankfully I am pretty lean by nature,
Could you do a video on earrings? Seems like an interesting topic and I think there is not much information about them even though they look better on some people
@@hereusername It CAN be but you seriously need to know what you are doing. I would say maybe 1% of vegans truly hit nutrient and vitamin requirements. You are far far better just sticking with a pescterian type of diet or simply just cut out refined sugar, diary etc.
I’m young (early 20s) and always been very skinny, yet I’ve always had a lot of fat in my lower cheeks that masks my cheekbones and my jawline! Buccal fat pad reduction looks like a good solution but I am scared to do this incase it does not create the effect I am looking for and ages me, as my jaw and cheekbones are not that prominent. Any advice?
Same here, i'm 18 and i have a chubby face, like a squirrel, since i was 13 i dream with buccal fat removal, but i'm really afraid about the consequences, i'm trying to work with my psicologic and accept myself. Maybe it is the better way to live with this problem.
I am no expert, but having a plump face when you are young might make you more likely to age nicely as you're less likely to look guant and dried out. I personaly think it's beautiful when a young woman has fuller cheeks, it's just really attractive.
I'm in the same boat, 23 here. I have a defined jawline from the sides and my cheekbones are placed high...but the facial fat hides everything and I look way younger than my age cause of it. I also want the procedure but was told I should wait...I guess some people don't lose that fat till even later? Least the mask hides my lower face so its not on my mind in public. I'm going to wear one forever unless these damn cheeks go.
I agree with you all about it being a youthful feature and I am happy to live with it, however I have quite a narrow oval face so the fat sticks out beyond the width of my cheekbones and without this excess fat I can see that my face is V-line. This is the only thing that is tempting me to look into the procedure as i think it could possibly be beneficial in my instance as long as not too much is taken out?
Use methods from Dr Mike mew on orthotropics, specifically correcting swallowing technique to make buccinator(cheek) muscles atrophy(get smaller). Get leaner with HIT workouts and do facial yoga from a lady called Koko.
Interesting. When I was a little underweight I used to have those hollowed out cheeks and it just made me look angry and kinda scary and my face looked way too narrow and longer so I don't think it is for everyone. People like Nina Dobrev come to mind
Nahh my face is literally like that... People are asking me to gain weight.. I am likee trying sooo hard to get chubby face.. where most of em are like trying to reduce their cheek fat😭
I dont have buccal fat but my upper and lower mandibles protrudes out very far like africans and I have a strong, wide and flat chin tip so with prominent cheekbones I look very unhappy and malnurished. High cheek bones doesnt automatically make you more attractive. In my case it makes my face hollow and masculine, gives my face a lot of shadows and sharp edges. I think it only looks good on people with small and sharp chins.
funny this video popped in my recommended just when i was doing my cheekbone-jawline contour exercises i saw on tiktok 💀 (i’ve been doing it for 2 weeks, barely a difference tho)
