Stop thinking about what you look like. All this attention on our looks is not healthy and cultivates narcissistic characteristics. And I’m not saying this as a criticism of this channel. I find it mostly interesting. But online culture is too focused on looks.
I’m tired of finding out that whatever I have naturally is not attractive. I’m making peace with it and moving on. I’m not beautiful, and that’s alright.
Don’t watch stuff like this to judge yourself. Instead, watch it to understand form. Eventually, you will see that your face also has elements of “attractive.”
Oh god FINALLY someone simplified this high/low visual weight thoery 😂😂😂 I swear youtube makeup channels are super complicating this making it a whole drama. QOVES ❤
This video is incredibly frustrating to watch. The narrator can’t enunciate, examples are shown and taken away far too quickly, and there is no conclusion whatsoever. What a disaster! 👎🏼
It's simmetry and harmony that people are looking for in other people.Clear skin with red undertone too and full head of hair with a nice smile...but eyes are still the most important feature of them all...including height for Males.
On back camera I look like I have low weight, but on selfie camera I like have high weight🤔it's so confusing, I always think which version is closer to life
Il faut s’accepter tel que l’on est, c’est la,meilleure chose celle qu vous rendra le,plus beau et la plus belle, s’aimer et aimer les autres, prendre soin de sa santé de son corps de son mental, être positif, rien de tel, aucune chirurgie en vous l’apportera, se faire belle avec ce que l’on a naturellement, mettre en valeur ses atouts car on en a tous.
no. High visual weight is western beauty standards think angelina jolie (big jaw big eyes big lips) and Low visual weight is eastern beauty standard ( Han So Hee)
So are those with higher visual weight in some areas, but do not have amazing symmetry more attractive. Or is those with lower visual weight but great symmetry more attractive?
The video forgets that we humans developed Visual weight because people must notice symmetry and any other issues that prevent clear skin. Any imperfections are noticed first because we humans are inherently risk averse and prefer healthy people. Of course, now with the hundreds of customization with makeup and plastic surgery, it’s different and we look for an already symmetrical and clear face to also fit the archetype of attractive person in our ideal imaginations
Doesn't apply to everyone, but it applies to a lot of people. Also, most of the resulting unattractive features are a result of both braces and extractions usually
Why would mistaking someone with similar looks imply that all black people look the same? Even if he did imply that, why would it be an insult? What a stupid comment.
What if the contours of your face change based on lighting? I notice my jaw and face shape looks soft and less defined in daytime lighting or super bright natural light whereas golden hour light or indoor artificial lighting makes my jaw look more prominent and strong looking. Would this make you both?
Bro last year I tried mewing but I did it wrong so I stopped, I realise I was doing it wrong because for some reason my gonial became more prominent, but that was on one side 😭 however, I stopped, moved on and forgot a little. But I started mewing again, learned the correct way and now it seems as if I have two different faces. On one side I have a high visual weight face given that mewing in the bigger gonial side has given me that (relatively)big cheekbone look and the buffalo fat removal look. However on my other side, the prominence in my cheekbones has increased but the gonial is not as prominent. I’m not sure what to do because I like both sides but I am afraid that if I try and grow my gonial on my uneven side I’ll look completely different from what I am used to looking like. Which is usually a more oval face shape, what do I do? 🫥
I love this! Bigger lips, stronger jaw, etc. are not necessarily more beautiful, it's all about the balance of your face. Cosmetic surgery and filler will ruin your face if you don't understand how your face is structured in the first place.
@@madeleineprice3556 By whose definition? If there was one true beauty standard for humans, you'd see it in all the paintings and cultures throughout the world. I think a stronger jaw is more attractive on men than women. Asymmetry doesn't always take away from beauty, look at Ryan Gosling and Natalie Dormer.
@@hanzle124 thats exactly what I mean cute is low visual weight high visual weight would be a face thats considered striking eg Beyonce would be low visual weight Rihanna is high visual wright as Rihanna is more striking
Figuring out my visual weight has actually helped me a lot when I wear makeup (for example). Even just doing a little bit too much makes me look insane bcs I have a babyface lol.
Hm I think having low visual weight actually gives you more room to wear more makeup styles. I think I've fairly high visual weight and makeup makes me look like a drag
Skimmed through the vid and turned it off. It's pointless and kinda depressing to analyze this about people's faces. Whether you have an attractive face or not isn't going to change after watching this vid, you'll just have more to over think about.
he is just stating facts from research. As an artist this actually helped me a lot for my drawings. besides he said one is not necessarily more attractive than other. you don't need to take it personally
It's the opposite for me. I'm bad at makeup, but understanding these things OBJECTIVELY can be an advantage. Makes me want to find my visual weight to highlight my features instead of thinking like this comment.
@@eaindraysukyaw4238this also helps me as a portrait photographer; you can’t just take a photo of a person without considering this and call it a day. only few people have ‘it’ when they look good from any angles. most people only look good from certain angles only and understanding facial weight helps a lot
I already feel bad about my appearance, but from this video I now understand why and know how to highlight my natural beauty instead of trying to replicate others who have a very different style from me and then wondering why I look bad.
I have a friend who was always very attractive but in recent years she somehow lost that attractiveness. I then noticed she had gotten lip fillers and it somehow threw off the balance of her whole face. It took me over a year to figure out it’s the filler because the filler was so subtle
Even though I grew up in Europe and have received compliments on my prominent bone structure; I also grew up consuming Korean media and it always made me feel like I didn't look right and would look better with perhaps fuller cheeks and a smaller, less angled jawline. It's interesting how culture can have such a big influence on how people view each other and themselves.
I watch a lot of Korean, Asian media too and I hate how so many Asians with beautiful jawlines cut off half their face. They would hate my wide jaw lol but I'd take it over the creepy V line look any day.
@@MsHafekasi_ the thing with an unnatural v-line is that it can look okay from the front but then the side profile looks really bad. It goes from chin to neck, no jawline in between.
Square faces are so regal to me, I've never understood the allure of a pointy chin, even if the point is softly curved. Just looks kinda baby-ish and underdeveloped which I think is the point of most east-asian beauty trends
The fact that there aren't any kpop idols that look like hoyeon due to what they consider "masculine" square face and monolids, despite her being one of the most beautiful women in the world... makes me wonder how many women messed up their faces to fit in...sad. beauty standards are a big problem in china too@@MsHafekasi_
Listen guys, I’m a woman and good women want a good man who is kind, patient, and personally attractive to them. You can be physically very average looking (for the purpose of this scale, like the pictures of the guys rated at 4 or 5 out of 10), but if you have a kind, patient, encouraging, and wonderful personality and treat her like a queen, then the right woman will ABSOLUTELY be interested in you!
Finally a really amazing description of what exactly visual weight is. I used to think my face's visual weight was high, but without any make up, it's actually rather low. In profile my nose has a tad bit of a higher visual weight, but only slightly. And of course it also depends on the lighting (sometimes my cheekbones look prominent and defined vs in other light settings they don't draw any shadows at all). I find it very easy to play around with make up though. I don't know if this is a general rule of thumb but I do feel like people with lower visual weight have an easier time changing their face's overall appearance with make up and lighting. I used to think faces with low visual weight are just more flat from the side profile and I thought that's about it.
This channel has actually made me feel better about myself. Learning about the features that "work" on my face makes me happy and now I feel less insecure about my small face.
@@yourjoy1095 a balance of average features blending together is more attractive than an imbalance of some features that stand out but don’t fit with the rest of the face. High visual weight has stand out features and low visual weight doesn’t. Stand out features that are imbalanced lack harmony that low visual weight can possess so low visual weight is not as negative as people think.
Something is wrong with my brain because my eyes are drawn to the most please shapes. So in the difference between the brick and the feather, i still felt drawn to the feather as its whispy shapes were just more pleasing.
When you did the brick and feather example I was thinking the brick had more visual weight when they were scaled to the same size. For the exact same reason you use in the edge and weight example
While the concept is hard to wrap my mind around. I can tell that if I go for lipstick I tend to come off as a head with lips to people. So I usually have to draw in my eyebrows and apply mascara and somehow it balances my face.
Fascinating video. Thank you 🙏🙏 Personally I find my visual weight relative to where a camera lense is: in close-up photos/videos, I have higher visual weight, the farther the camera lens the more boring I look lol. But maybe EVERYBODY is that way?? Because otherwise why would theatre makeup have to be so dramatic for the audiences sitting far away from the stage.
2:37 editing this, It would really help if you slow down not only the pace of your speech, but the motion that starts right when the text appears. For instance, I had to rewind and pause to catch what the text said there. Please don't be in such a hurry. Moving the pictures as soon as the text appears makes it impossible to read, especially in the beginning stage of your video where you're explaining the foundations of the concept. Speed is not the same as engagement with your audience. Is there any way you can change this after having posted it? Thanks for the overall lesson
When discussing the concept of "visual weight" concerning people's faces, a significant question arises: which society's scale is the observer using to determine what constitutes "heavy" visual weight? It's apparent that an observer's perception of an element of someone else's face is heavily influenced by the uniformity of faces in their surroundings and the prevalent features there. For instance, in a remote African village, every aspect of an Anglo person's face will stand out significantly. Conversely, in China, features of an indigenous African face will carry noticeable visual weight to just about every native Chinese observer. These examples illustrate the arbitrary nature of "visual weight" when applied to human phenotypes, revealing its inherent flaws. For instance, fuller lips may appear "heavy" in a community or in a media landscape where most lips we are collectively exposed to are thin, thus carrying substantial visual weight. However, among individuals with similar genetics, full lips might not stand out at all for their size because everyone's lips are full there. Perhaps it's more appropriate to confine the concept of visual weight to discussions of art and composition, where it belongs. Otherwise, it risks uncomfortably veering into discussions about eugenics and other misguided notions about genetics that should be consigned to the annals of history.
They always leave out the biggest feature and that is skin, the color, the pigment, the amount of melanin….yes it matters too. Before anyone will see any feature the first thing they’ll digest subconsciously is skin color. Then they will rate in the entirety of the face.
Me watching all the video to hear a shitty explanation... all this could be simply explained as the visual complexity of a face which doesn't always translate to more beautiful( rather more striking features). You didn't do a great job here sorry... your video was too visually weighterd and thus overly complexified. Visual weight is simply: rare eye color or high eye/ skin/ hair contrast; rarer eye shape; rare skin color/ hair combo; exotic nose; exotic lips or lipshape and striking face shape...there's really nothing more to it.
Hey, just a heads up: great video, super interesting content and catchy animation, but I could not really keep up with the voice and the visual info at once, which is a shame. Perhaps slow down the oral explanation? Just an idea
I have low visual weight when I wear no makeup because nothing stands out, but when I make up my eyes with eyeliner, my eyes become a striking feature and I get a lot of compliments. But I look not memorable if I don't cheat with make up. Angelina jolie has both big lips and feline eyes and an interesting beauty spot in the corner of one eye, so she has high visual weight everywhere. I also believe that one is drawn to things he is most attracted to. Most people look at eyes first because they are said to be the window to the soul. I know a girl who has striking features, but I always look at her lips because they are abnormally thin. Like, she has no lips at all. Doesn't mean she has strikingly beautiful lips and hence visual weight.
This is such an interesting way to look at individualistic vs collectivist of cultures. The ideals come through in the way we prioritize what is beautiful (striking features are individualism, facial harmony is collectivistic).
I immediately thought the same thing as the narrator described eastern cultural aesthetic. Ugh! It sucks I'm in America cause my features would be fire in Korea.
@@dahliaherrod4301Would they tho? I feel like a pretty korean person is more likelyo e beautiful in america. But a pretty american persn might not be seen as such in korea. Their beauty atandards are much more harsh
Yooooo people!!! This whole theory is meant to be used on models bc they take photoshoots and all why is everyone in the comments suddenly feeling like this concerns them 😂 Y'all so funny always looking for something new to feel insecure about
I always wondered why my face is considered attractive and beautiful when I don’t really have any particular feature that stands out. It is kind of a comfort to know the power of collective harmony . They might look average individually but together they create a general pleasant sight to look at. I still have no idea how my harmony work but low visual weight seemed like a place to start.

Conversely, in China, features of an indigenous African face will carry noticeable visual weight to just about every native Chinese observer.
These examples illustrate the arbitrary nature of "visual weight" when applied to human phenotypes, revealing its inherent flaws. For instance, fuller lips may appear "heavy" in a community or in a media landscape where most lips we are collectively exposed to are thin, thus carrying substantial visual weight. However, among individuals with similar genetics, full lips might not stand out at all for their size because everyone's lips are full there. Perhaps it's more appropriate to confine the concept of visual weight to discussions of art and composition, where it belongs. Otherwise, it risks uncomfortably veering into discussions about eugenics and other misguided notions about genetics that should be consigned to the annals of history.
It helps to relate this idea to big picture viewer vs detail oriented viewer
My nose has a loot of visual weight thats all i can say
The parallel with the design principle in art is perfect. I can now apply it in my portrait drawing now, Thanks!
Please make a video on how piercing affect your attractive like a nose piercing ❤
It will definitely increase visual weight 😅
They always leave out the biggest feature and that is skin, the color, the pigment, the amount of melanin….yes it matters too. Before anyone will see any feature the first thing they’ll digest subconsciously is skin color. Then they will rate in the entirety of the face.
Not true. When I see a gorgeous face. It’s bone structure and striking features that I see FIRST. 😅😴
Makes sense…skin commands the greatest surface area of the body. Also bad skin really takes away from one’s beauty.
Me watching all the video to hear a shitty explanation... all this could be simply explained as the visual complexity of a face which doesn't always translate to more beautiful( rather more striking features). You didn't do a great job here sorry... your video was too visually weighterd and thus overly complexified. Visual weight is simply: rare eye color or high eye/ skin/ hair contrast; rarer eye shape; rare skin color/ hair combo; exotic nose; exotic lips or lipshape and striking face shape...there's really nothing more to it.
This is so confusing bc I have a baby face but angular / model features like high cheekbones too
Lmao same it kinda makes me look like a guy it makes me feel ugly but it’s better than having no jawline
So if you have a big nose, you can increase the visual weight for the other features to improve balance ⚖️
I find low visual weight much more attractive.
Hey, just a heads up: great video, super interesting content and catchy animation, but I could not really keep up with the voice and the visual info at once, which is a shame. Perhaps slow down the oral explanation? Just an idea
That’s a you problem
you are good at this! keep it coming!
"because everyone lives off their parents and spend too much time looking themselves at the mirror"
I have low visual weight when I wear no makeup because nothing stands out, but when I make up my eyes with eyeliner, my eyes become a striking feature and I get a lot of compliments. But I look not memorable if I don't cheat with make up. Angelina jolie has both big lips and feline eyes and an interesting beauty spot in the corner of one eye, so she has high visual weight everywhere. I also believe that one is drawn to things he is most attracted to. Most people look at eyes first because they are said to be the window to the soul. I know a girl who has striking features, but I always look at her lips because they are abnormally thin. Like, she has no lips at all. Doesn't mean she has strikingly beautiful lips and hence visual weight.
Literally noone is talking about this😂
Monica Bellucci has a low visual weight
This is such an interesting way to look at individualistic vs collectivist of cultures. The ideals come through in the way we prioritize what is beautiful (striking features are individualism, facial harmony is collectivistic).
I immediately thought the same thing as the narrator described eastern cultural aesthetic. Ugh! It sucks I'm in America cause my features would be fire in Korea.
@@dahliaherrod4301Would they tho? I feel like a pretty korean person is more likelyo e beautiful in america. But a pretty american persn might not be seen as such in korea. Their beauty atandards are much more harsh
Ending these kids from saying “First” “Second” and “Third”.
The hero we all needed.
You are a Saviour 🙏
@@gXdhwarMine is the 4th comment.
Yooooo people!!! This whole theory is meant to be used on models bc they take photoshoots and all why is everyone in the comments suddenly feeling like this concerns them 😂
Y'all so funny always looking for something new to feel insecure about
Could you do a video on feminine features on men
I always wondered why my face is considered attractive and beautiful when I don’t really have any particular feature that stands out.
It is kind of a comfort to know the power of collective harmony . They might look average individually but together they create a general pleasant sight to look at.
I still have no idea how my harmony work but low visual weight seemed like a place to start.
Now this channel has me single and friendless for constantly asking about my visual facial weight and attractiveness or lack thereof.
Lol! I was just warning myself to not start asking my friends!!!
Could you do a video about side profile beauty standard? I feel like it’s gonna really different to judge the visual weight of our side profile.
