No matter how young you look, there is always an Asian who looks younger than you.
Hahahaha
Untrue my Pakistani friend look 20s when he was 13 and looks 30s when he was 21
@@st4r444in this case they meant Asians like Koreans and Japanese lol
East Asian* not all Asian look like Korean and Japanese.,
Unless you’re Ralph Maccio
I guess they also got more localized fat in their face(like eyes and cheeks), it works like a natural botox or something like that
It’s like a natural filler…
I’m south east asian and I think this is true. I’m 25 and still have a lot of buccal fat in my face.
@@reve605Same, I'm 28 but many people especially non Asian thought I'm in early 20s. Same as my 49 y/o mother. She looks younger than her age.
yeah aegyosal (under-eye fat) is also important in korean beauty standards
True, but this can also be detrimental by western beauty standards. Lots of East Asians have very chubby, round faces which hides the facial features.
I'm Filipino. I'm a marketing executive. 35. But I look 24. Whenever I'm traveling and meeting new colleagues, they always treat me like the intern until they find out I'm one of their bosses.... They quickly change their tone and behavior
seems like a nice plot for a movie 😂 WRITE THAT DOWN
I relate so much. I'm also Filipino, a teacher, 25 years old but always gets mistaken as one of the 16 year old students. Sometimes it's a blessing, often times it's a curse.

That’s what you tell yourself
@@Tara_Pannonica chill
having chubby cheeks/round face definitely helps
Meanwhile, Americans trying to suck their cheeks in so far they touch each other in the mouth.
And those baby looking eyes
@@sabinasinchuri8623which is why uzzlang makeup is popular in Asia. It brings out the eyes and make them look more round
@@Gia700 , right! It’s interesting how inherit features are the beauty standards but ofc, no one is pure blood as everyone have been having interracial babies for thousands of generations. It is astoundingly intriguing how the new generations who show interracial features completely decimate the beauty standards.
I think that is also why mixed people are very attractive, they are so different from their regional features and stand out. But ofc, there are those who think you have to conform to the beauty standards.
Round face is mostly a Japanese, south Chinese and southeast Asian trait. Korean and north Chinese have square face.
He forgot to mention that many east-asiana also really care about protecting their skin from UV rays to keep it lighter. Many use parasols on sunny days. That ofc delays visible aging
That's more the fear of having a dark complexion. it's not really "care".
Yeah they really take care of their bodies. Even their processed food would be sold as unprocessed and healthy on other parts of the world. The vitamins really change the skin and overall look
@@cryforthemoonhalf and half. some of them are really obsessed with pale skin, the other half including me have lots of moles and need to protect ourselves for our own health.

I had a coworker in her 50s tell me to never remove any fatty tissue (because I said I wanted to get some fat removed from my cheeks) from my face because it will come in handy later on in life and it just stuck with me!
Remove fat from your face? Awful idea
removing fat makes you look older. You will regret it once you're old
Its called buccal fat surgery and is the "in" thing now. It's really terrible. I've never had any plastic surgery. The lengths that people go through to "improve" their looks is insane. Sometimes it actually makes them look older.
@@hanhb6047 the only surgery i wanna do is a breast reduction. no matter how much weight i lose, i seem to lose it everywhere BUT my chest
@hanhb6047 it's a terrible surgery, it doesn't suit anyone who gets it, is irreversible, and ruins that part of the face as they age as those fat pads are necessary for maintaining facial structure
Also weather, asia have humidity to make skin not dry since dry skin make wrinkles
Not in winter.

Yeah, i'm southeast asian, but i prefer western beauty standards like sharper features and less facial fat tbh even tho i got facial fat as a 20 year old and look young. Younger doesn't always mean better looking.

Also my dermatologist told me that oily skin ages slower as it’s doesn’t form wrinkles as much as dry skin types
Also why generally you’re not supposed to shower everyday. You can, it’s fine to, but you end up washing away all those oils your skin built up through the day and some of the good bacteria that helps your skin. Obviously if you did something sweaty or whatever then def shower. But if you just went to work and came back…do you really need to take a 45 min shower and apply 13 different bottles filled w chemicals and then apply 8 different creams?
I shower ab ever 2 days unless I did something during the day that warrants a shower and my skin is radiant and youthful and I rarely ever get acne. I see all these girls w bad acne and using makeup and showers w a million products and yet there skin is always awful.
True, it's a blessing in disguise actually
I lived in China for a bit abd and this is sll true but to me personally people from Africa seem to be blessed with youthful looks that gives most Asians some good competition.
Yes, im guessing African people and people from African decent have similar qualities as most Asians (including southern) which gives them a well aging face/ body
East Asians look young up to a certain point and then they look old af. Africans look 10-15 younger even in old age.
They also have baby features such as Asians, like wide cheeks, flat noses, big lips, big forehead...ecc. Black skin can Better cover imperfections like skin spots
@@romi8741then u aren't among many black ppl, they age the same way as asians, meaning their elders Also look elderly
黑人从腿长和身材比例上也赢了却大多数人
We only look younger when compared to Caucasian. I'm southeast asian and I can tell you that a 40-year old Asian looks 40 to us, but to Caucasians they may look 30. Ofc, you have the outliers who look older or younger than they actually are, but generally speaking we can correctly guess our fellow Asians' age range (this is how we know whether to call you auntie/uncle, adik/akak/abang 😂). People say Jackie Chan looks young for his age, but to me he looks exactly his age. So yea I think Asians looking young is relative.
Southeast Asian age like milk..not the same as East Asia
@@slee2695 ?? What are you saying
Yup, I've been around them long enough to tell the different ages apart, beautiful people East Asians.
@@slee2695don’t necessarily agree with the statement, but I agree with the sentiment. As an Indonesian I cringe when I see other SEAsians (mainly Maritime SEA) try to relate and act like we’re similar to East Asians. It’s usually because in their countries, like in Indonesia, the perception of East Asians is skewed by the local Chinese community, who are often more culturally SEAsian than East.
But if they’ve lived out to either the West or East, they’ll see the difference is like day and night.
I’ve found it, through personal experience, to be easier to relate to Africans. Since our cultures are tropical and all that.
@ycantiusegeorgiantextforhandle true..even lumping East Asia as one group is wrong..as Korea/Japan have different ancestral line from Han Chinese
As a 35-yr old medical professional, I need to choose my outfit wisely and put on a dash of makeup to make myself a little bit “older” to establish rapport to new patients.
East Asian same profession here. In my 40s, and I just decided to grow out my beard like my father 😂 So tired of being treated like “you see, when I was young like you…” from 27 year olds.
Thank you dad for good beard genes
I’m still a student but I’m worried about my future career life. I have a high-pitched voice, sounds almost kiddy. Who would take me seriously or believe what I say?
@@imthecoolest50 Most people will not judge you simply by your outer characteristics. But in case they do, assert yourself. Fortunately, I only look young. My voice is semi-deep, and I have a beard, etc. but this still did not solve much issues vs. those who assumed I was young just by looking at me :/
Fortunately nobody really disrespected me, and all my colleagues who know me well do not do this. So don’t worry too much!
Some Russian patients did not trust our doctor. They said, "Of course, she is a beautiful woman, but can we go to another doctor?" Her parents are Vietnamese and she looks younger.
27yr old Korean living in NZ, they keep on checking my ID every time i buy some beer
I'm Indian and 31 but I was born and raised in the Netherlands. I've gone through chronic stress and a severe burnout but after I started recovering and taking better care of my health again, my skin now looks younger than it did in my mid to late 20s. So what I am saying is without the skincare and healthcare I put into myself but with the burnout and such I would probably look much older than I do now. But I think being Asian helps in recovering a youthful look much better. I'm an academic and my students always guess I'm between early 20s to mid 20s. Most often 23~ which is insane. But my face indeed looks similar to how it looked around that age so that does make sense.
It's actually the oil in the face. It refreshes the skin. If you also notice the indigenous people in south america and north america also ages slower.
Nevertheless my japanese mom is able to guess the ages of other asians because she is used to look at those faces. Asians might look younger to white people who are not constantly surrounded by asians. Also, asian skin tends to develop pigment spots with age
That’s a good point
That's what I'm saying. I'm working in an office with 90% Asian people and most of our clients are from Asian countries as well in my opinion many of them they do look their actual age. Most caucasian aren't used to see asian features that often so they can't tell the difference between a 20 and a 45 year old or even the difference between Chinese and Korean lol for white people like me it depends how often they got exposed to the sun. We generally got thinner skin layers so we need to take more care of our skin. The best solution by the age of 25 when the elastin and hyaluron of our faces start to reduce is staying in the mostly shadow, using sun screen and sleeping enough - long-term it will make wonders.
This is so true! I'm used to being around a lot of Asian people so i usually guess their ages right
@@ninagraziaAsians compared to other Asians look their right age but Asians compared to Caucasians of the same age look younger than their Caucasian counterparts.
@roses2028 Can I ask you politely in which country you live? Because where I live the 'caucasian' people look mostly more vital and youthful if directly compared to for example the US.
i think its also cultural practices. east asians have a culture of avoiding sunlight to prevent dark skin, thus doing things that protect themselves from UV damage. and im sure their regional diets impact health
This is so true!!!! 😂
Yes. Asians EAST and South would NEVER lie out in the sun
@@lilacfunk lots of south asians work / travel outdoors in summers at 40+ degree C temps. so thats not entrirely true. i think a fraction of educated people, specially women, avoid the sun.
@@SiddharthGargYTand they age faster by doing that. I lived in Japan and what he said is absolutely true. Most people in Tokyo dress to avoid the Sun
@@NK-ne9uf yea they age faster
“Asians tend to stay youthful longer than other groups”
Black Africans/African descent: I’d like to challenge that statement!
black don't crack
I heard Asians do age better than black people, but black people at least look like adults when they are adults. Asians look like children until they're 40. So black people look sexy for longer. Asians people look like you want to help them with their math homework. Then they turn 40, and you know the joke.
black don’t crack fr
I generally find African origin people to look the most youthful past 50. On the other hand E Asian origin people look the most youthful under 40/50. Past that age E Asians start looking very old maybe due to huge losses of facial fat.
No one thinks this
We also avoid sunlight… 😅 umbrellas are not to protect us from the rain, instead its used to fight off the sun😂
Being a homebody does the same. And you don't have to worry about getting poked in the eye by someone holding up an umbrella at your eye level because you tower over all the asians. I live in Korea and I'm 6'2".

When wester talked about Asian, they are actually talked about Korean, Chinese and Japan 😂
Well, in the UK, Asians are SOUTH Asians, and but can incorporate East Asians at times. It's the USA and Australia that calls East Asians "Asians" only.
@@maryamkim1281That's completely true. UK people, when they are talking about 'asians', generally mean 'Indian' or pakistani, who are a little brown skinned. We are not like those dumb americans who think 'all asians are Chinese or Japanese'... Er, no, the majority of Asia actually DOESN'T consist of the countries that east Asians habituate in. The majority is Russia, central Asian countries, West Asia, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, pakistan, I could go on and on. americans never fail to continue to sound dumb especially with what terms they tend to use. 😆🤣 Unfortunately, alot of people who don't speak English adopt this dumb way of talking and american ways of speaking because sadly, at least on the Internet, if it's in English, it tends to be dominated by dumbass yanks. Just the truth. And to any yank reading, don't be all upset by what I've said because it's true. Lol
and when they say Caucasians they mean europeans/white people lol
@@rosefulmadnesswell that's more accurate then
That’s why the video specifically said “EAST Asians” which are the countries you listed and “wester” (sic) itself is a very vague phrase to include a vast bloc of presumptive countries. The video was specific with “East Asian” but what do you even really mean by “wester” (‘western’)? Do you just mean democratic, civilized, “developed” nations?
I've always admired Asian beauty and how they age so gracefully😍
I'm half Filipina pushing 40, living in Denmark. People still think I'm in my mid twenties. Often felt like people's attitude change to the awkward when they hear im way older than them. Used to bother me but is happy i can still look young.
I'm also Filipino
Having a baby face and a youthful mindset definitely helps maintain a young outward appearance 👍🏼
And botox
@@rabiashakoor1766 Sure, botox helps but it’s not natural and the effects wear off eventually so you would need to have repeat injections to maintain it.
Having a healthy, nutritious diet, exercising regularly and avoiding drugs, smoking and alcohol is the best way to staying in good shape.
This!!!!
Melanin and everything he Said relates to black 🖤 folks 2 but of course haters won't say it😊
Facts
Now do Black people. I’d love to hear your analysis about it.
Yess ❤
I think it’s gonna be challenging with the massive diversity in facial features (edit - no duh Korean and Indian people look different but they dont get lumped together like people of African ancestry).
Blacks have a thicker dermis, denser collagen and a ton of melanin which takes ten to twenty years off their visable age.
Nobody cares
@@Bianca-Crystal and no one cares about what you have to say. shut it. We all do care about this except your ignorant self. ✌🏾❤️
That one Asian engineer who looks 40 at the age of 20 be like: 💀
I think it has more to do with having trouble guessing the ages of people outside your race. Here in Japan people often think black and white people are younger than they are.
No likes ? Lemme fix it 😂❤
I mean if we talking about melanin than that means All darker skin people look younger especially Africans, Latin countries, Middle Eastern, and south Asians.... And I've seen some Asian people that look older than what they are. I think it depends on hardship and living conditions that determines a persons appearance. Even your religion and beliefs can effect your aging internally and outwardly.
You sound like a hater Karen.
The only ethnicity and race that is valid out of all the ones you mentioned is African/Black,the rest DO NOT look younger than their ages generally
You say you've seen Asians who loon older than their age but I'm sure you've never seen an Asian that you're age mates with who looks the same as you or older than you😂 so the point still stands
You fixated on exactly one point but not why the point was made in the first place. Melanin contributes to UV protection, which prevents sun damage from aging skin. Aside from UV protection, the main culprit to their youthful appearance is their bone structure and their dense collagen prevents sag which it keeps skin firm.
the middle eastern look mature other than that i agree with all you mentioned
Im the mideast, a 14 year old could look over 8 to 10 years older esp in girls. They applied makeup and wrong skin care regimen at a young age
You have a low level of comprehension. He said “more compact melanin”, meaning a more compact structure. That’s has literally nothing to do with black or Latin people who don’t have a compact structure, but a higher melanin level. You don’t have to have to bring in other POCs the SECOND an Asian person is mentioned, it’s not the oppression Olympics.
I think the key is to protect the skin face from sunlight and enough sleep throughout youth, I'm not asian and I also look 10 years younger, people generally don't believe when I say my age, specially because for some miracle I've anti balding genes and I barely have any white hair, so I'm 38 but look 28
This video did not talk about the voice and how some people still sound young even at an older age. My dad was 70 years old and still sounded like a young guy according to some people. He's 83 now. It seems he aged a lot overnight too.
@@kennymichaelalanya7134 I've seen it people age fast in a few years too, idk if it's stress or health issue tho
I am Asian who is 40 and people thought I look 28. I don't drink or smoke and no party as well. I also got a child but my body doesn't really change.
Regular exercise where you sweat and rehydrate with lots of water is another means of staying young longer.
@@badcheetah5927same,I'm 31 but people thought I was 18😂
I’m East Asian with pale skin and kinda careful with sun protection and people usually assume I’m about 8-10 younger than my age. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or bad thing, cuz I’m the director at the company but people usually assumed I’m a lot more junior in the department when they first met me 😅
This is so cool to learn!! I would love to hear a comparison of data between these Asian features with black people.
My indonesian grandma is 90 and she does look 10 years younger. She has almost no wrinkles. I'm white (dutch) and glad I got the genes. I have a round wide face and very smooth skin. When I was younger I dislikes looking younger, but I do like it now. I'm 28 but most people think I'm 20
Oh me too! I also disliked it when I was younger, I think bc growing up here in Indonesia the overall beauty standard is to look beautiful in mature way. I truly considered getting plastic surgery to get my face look 'thinner' back when I was a teenager, but now I'm liking my features so much (probably bc now I'm 25 and some of the baby fats are starting to shed😄)
Same 😂
Same😂I'm Middle Eastern and North African and many ppl think I'm 23 or 26 max
There is no difference in the appearance of an 80-90 year old. I worked in age care for 7 years. I'd say from about mid 70's and up very little difference in looks of at all but you might be able to tell by movement and flexibility.
I am mixed. My who is mother is German/English is considered looking 10-15 years younger.
My siblings also have this. My younger sister the worst time of it because she's also short. Men wouldn't date her til she was in her late 20's as they thought she was lying about her and and she was jail bait. She has married a younger man.
I've also married younger.
Genetics and epigenetics play a major factors.
But I've seen some Asian people who didn't take care of themselves and were very wrinkled and aged poorly. There's also the well known aunty effect or grandmafication effect.
My opa was half indo and half Dutch as well :)
That last part is a half truth, there are plenty of east Asians with a very defined jawline/mandible
This I definitely agree with, I think what he most likely meant was that, defined jawline isn’t as common among asians
@@ramsesrhodes6241 defined jaws are common among Asians, defined jaws are more common among north east Asians than Europeans.
@@legendarybroliz4578 I see
@@ramsesrhodes6241 the amount of Chinese and Korean people getting their mandible bones shaved down to make their face narrower is insane.
And it's Europeans and American whites that get jaw implants more than any other ethnicity
Yeah, I think it’s cause of East Asian media. Many of the celebrities (especially female) have soft defined jaws cause that’s the beauty standard. Funny enough, if you base that theory on East Asians in western media, you’d think the large majority of East Asians have defined jaws. I guess it’s cause in the west strong defined jaws are the beauty standard. So, you’ll find many celebrities from all ethnicities having that trait.
I listened to all of this! Thank you for this video 🤍
Same problem. Im 34, a manager, but counterparts often mistaken me as fresh graduate staff 😅. So we need to dress more maturely to compensate

don`t this have like millions subs ? two million or something?I am not sure though,well I have to check sometime.
while those things may be a factor also, I do believe it most often comes down to foreigners not being familiar enough with east asian faces to tell, they do have obvious signs of age for those who have seen a fair share of east asian faces, it is not really accurate to say their aging process is slower, overall the aging process is the same but its effects are different for each ethnic group, even animals have a similar aging process but I doubt many people would generally be able to tell the age of an ant or even a cat or dog, despite the cues being there, simply because they do not even know what they've looking for to begin with
Yep, if you know where to look, you will find the age
yep exactly! the crows feet and lines be all up and down the face while still among the so called "child-like" features.
@@user-mg1lg2zk5k very same! which is why I refuse to guess anymore when they ask👀😬.
bingo!
Wow
Ps. Ur readings are consistent based on my past piles on your previous readings. Keep up the good work
childlike or more attractive is a horrendous thing to say
it's literally how it works. We prefer neonatal features, typically when referring to women. Youth is fertility, which increases the chances of producing offspring. The younger you look, the better. But the key is matching neonatal features with signs of matured fertility. A young girl obviously will not exhibit features of reaching matured fertility
You made it horrendous. Get your mind out of the gutter.
It just means younger
My god. Chill.
Better than looking masculine like the westerners
It is so true. There was a woman that I was interested in for a while that I saw often on my lunch break during work. It took me a while to go and talk to her, and once I did I found she’s 35! She did not look 35 at all, she looks around the same age as me, 24. I decided to not try to pursue her because that is a little too old for me. She is a Korean woman.
Lol. This why theres a lot of noona dating in korea
😂😂😂😂😂
I get a lot of 22-25 year olds hitting on me and I'm always like "young man, I look your age but my actual age is a decade over you and mentality triple your age." 😂
The women built like teenage boys and the men built like teenage girls!!!!!😏
Yeah, it's funny. I'm a dude, south asian but look white. I look younger than my white friends that are 7-8 years younger than me. And I get hit on by girls 10+ years younger than me when I'm out and about. But on dating apps, when you filter by age, only women older than me swipe right on me.
I always figured it was because I eat healthy, exercise, and don't smoke or drink. But I guess it could be some of this stuff too.
Don't forget behaviour and culture, they also avoid the sun as whiter skin is considered more attractive and they have lots of skin care regiment
That's true, but the older generations didn't have sunscreen. It didn't exist when they were younger and even when it slowly became more available in the East (back in the 70s in the West, people were still using coconut oil etc. when outdoors in order to get a deeper tan - wasn't until the mid to late 80s that actual sunscreen that blocked UV rays came into wider use and the SPF was a lot lower and people didn't distinguish between UVB and UVA until years later) it wasn't adopted as quickly by older people and especially men. Back in the old days they (women) carried sun parasols and wore big hats (sun visors are very popular with older people in Korea) etc. In Vietnam women wear hats and wear long gloves to cover up their hands and arms, while the rest of their body is protected by regular clothing.
Anyway my father used to do outdoor activities like wash the car, maintain the yard etc., without a hat or sunscreen. He would get very tanned over the summer, in contrast to the covered part of his skin which remained quite white. He had these tan lines, at the neck and upper arms.
He would probably look a lot younger if he had worn long sleeved shirts and hats and sunscreen. But even so, he has always been extremely young looking for his age. He looked a lot younger than his age peer friends, who were of the same East Asian background. Even his hair - retained a full head of hair with a solid hairline that receded ever so slowly, whilst several of his age peers had started to bald and had receding hairlines. Furthermore, his hair started to gray much later than others and at a much slower pace. He just looked way younger for a long time.
People would often mistake him for 2 decades younger.
His siblings were much the same but not to the same extent as my father
I am sorry, but non-asians also seem to prefer the "pale skin" and follow skincare and use sunscreen religiously, so what's the difference then?
@@carebodai1440 depends on the country, in germany people definitely prefer tanned skin, they sunbath a lot bc being too pale is seen as "being ill". it is not as bad as it used to be bc people realized that its not healthy for their skin but having at least a slight tan is still the beauty standard

Asian people before the age of 30 mostly look younger than our actual age even when we rarely use skincare.
But after the age of 30, if we don't take care of ourselves, we will look older.😅
Good for you

After about 30-35, Caucasian's skin really dries out. Really, equalizing for how people take care of themselves, Asians still look younger.

I really think it’s more down to lifestyle factors and face shape… some of the asians here in the asian market in my neighborhood look really rough from the sun and all the smoking and drinking.. those who avoid the sun and take care of themselves look a lot better. The same is true for other ethnicities 🤷🏻♀️
> I really think it’s more down to lifestyle factors and face shape
Absolutely not true. Asians are also more likely to smoke and more likely to eat foods with MSG.
I am chinese, but I was adopted by Spanish parents, so I ve had an occidental lifestyle since I was a baby. Most people told me that I seem 2 years younger (I am 20). So I think it's genetics. Because I dress, eat and behave as a Spanish citizen. I even go out to parties, drink alcohol, smoke sometimes... But obviously I take care of myself. I have always eaten healthy and I ve been really sportist. Also, I am not short for being chinese, I think I am over the average. Facial traits make a difference.
@@adaalonso drinking and smoking every now and then is not going to drastically age your body. It’s when you do it everyday or livery frequently. Plus, half of your answer is right there: you eat pretty healthy and keep yourself fit. That alongside your genetics keeps you looking young. If you were to smoke, drink and party everyday, not eat good, and not exercise I guarantee you’d have a different outcome.
Yeah almost every single Chinese men ive men who is over 25 looks like an old uncle, Chinese men age terribly i don't know what the hell is this video talking about. Women definitely age better tho, but i wouldn't say to the point where they look 10 years younger on average from other ethnicities.
A few that look rough lol. And they still probably look younger than their age
I'm 32. From my experience half of my friends look as young as ever and other half don't. And mostly older looking ones, are the ones with kids.
So true.
You are so right.I just wrote that in my opinion these both of these women look quite old for their age and race. (I think the photos are processed in a purpose of study, I don`t know.) But yeah, that is my experience also, I have friends and relatives from different races and now I live in North Europa where people look much younger than this,they have the open face type, like you also have, that the bone above your eyebrows do not create a shadow in your face, like both of these ladies have. Big eyes, you got them, these ladies do not.Also, hate to say it, but Asians, specifically, are not considered young looking compared to anyone,(only in the media, not in nature) And no one compares celebrities, people, that would be just so false.Yeah, I don`t see these kind of people around me, they look much younger. There is literally no changes in anyone`s face until after 40, then first signs starts to show, yea? And the only change usually is that you lose that baby fat,(that did it with Marilyn Monroe, she had very little surgery to her face at the time) which does not do anything with round bone structure, but if someone has high cheekbones and prominent, then, the bone structure is considered pretty and good looking. You look much younger than these ladies in the photos. But you also look normal, for your age,you look your age i mean, these photos`s are not good of an example with both ladies looking older than their age.Having very small eyes etc.
@@ambrusin4889 right, and I think it's not very fair they chose Dua Lipa here, coz she's the type of face to look "adult" since 19y.o. and stay with almost the same face till 40+. I think they should've used other celebrities too, who's not on a masculine side of beauty, just to be fair. Coz it's about diversity in face structures, you can't narrow the whole race to one type of face. My experience tells me it depends on a face, not race.
@@ZuhaLoveMusic oh that was indeed Dua Lipa, American singer, ( I am old) heh, no, I do know who she is, I just thought it was someone who resembled her. She looked so different in her music video.Yeah ,I don`t like when celebrities are being used as an example of any kind of an appearance. I have relatives from Europa and as I have navigated there (here) I have come to learn there are so many different races in whiter skinned people also. Like in Africa there are many different looking races and people. Dua Lipa is an odd example. Very odd to use her in this connection. This would look very different if using someone else`s pic. Someone from Sweden, Finland ,Italy Greek, or Portugal..the list is endless. All just too different. All I see is different kind of faces around me, different than than Dua ,in Northern part of Europa, but that is exactly your point. You cannot use a skin color or tone to describe a whole race as an example. It is ridiculous, imagine if they would have use just a one face to describe Africans, oh my Lord, and Asians (there are different kind of Asians also, under half of Russia (Approx. 200 000 million people, yes, quite many are Asian, and people there also look the part, just different, (taller, light hair, but eyes gives it away. btw. they are beautiful, we call them mixed) but they are not younger looking than any other "race" in general, in real life, like, at all.Young looking maybe, but not younger. I have not heard anyone ever, think like that, said like that, who has? I am mixed, like very mixed, I wish that the talk of race and comparing them too much would end. I am interested about people and genetics, very much so, but sometimes it just goes too far, the talk you know, these very, overly simplified comparisons. Like this kind of comparison. When you see enough world, and people especially, the talk of race just kind of feels stupid. I am sorry, I seem to have wrote a whole damn book for you. Well, heh you don`t have to read this, it is the beauty about texting. You are very beautiful and you prove the point that not all are looking the same also with your appearance, I wish you much health and happiness!
@@ambrusin4889 lol I do read everything and thank you so much for the kind words, I wish you all the same and more. And yes, race talks can be very stupid and make no sense, coz after all there's only one race called human. We're all one. And judgements also should be based on person individually.
I don’t know how, but my great-grandmother had many Asian traits. My grandfather took some of these traits, but my mother took it A LOT, and I have it too (eyelashes down, small eye, corner of the eye with a curve, fat eyelid, and thick black hair). We don’t have documents from our ancestors, so I don’t know if she was a descendant, but I don’t think so. I think she is a descendant of Native Brazilians (indigenous) who historically came from an ancient civilization of China.
My Korean girlfriend is 21 and she visited France last year. She tried purchasing a drink from a small store. The owner gave her the drink for free and asked where her parents are. He was worried that this elementary school girl lost her parents lol. I think small asian girls especially look very young.
I am Inuk (Inuit) and almost 30, people tell me I look 18-22. Now before anyone tries to explain to me that we came from the land bridge I already know, we acknowledge that our ancestors travelled from Siberia and some still live there and share characteristics with East Asians. My younger sister told me she has friends younger than me that have developed wrinkles and I still have none. Also I have no problem with people knowing my real age, I’m not ashamed to be 28 but find it curious how my features and skin type affect me.
Wow, this is so rare for an First Nation people to admit their ancestors are from Asia. Most First Nation doesn't associate with Asia.
@@nightowl7261well yeah obv, their culture is very distinct. Acknowledging ancestry and blood ties from thousands of yrs ago is different from associating w the place and culture lol
@_.soymilk
That's not what I meant. When I said most First Nation won't associate with Asia. That means they don't associate at all in any way, shape, or form, including admitting to coming over the land bridge. And some will even get offended if you mistaken them for Asian.
Except this person, actually admits to have coming over the bridge. Most First Nation talks like they just came out of existence in the New World, when it's obvious that's not the case.
@@nightowl7261They were the last to arrive and retained neo mongoloid appearance
@@nightowl7261Also why would you associate with a place your ancestors left over 10,000 years ago? Modern East Asians are neo mongoloids while the majority of Natives ancestors are proto mongoloids.
I’ve been brainwashed to believe I should have European features , I’ve always disliked a few things you mentioned that keep us “looking youthful”. Thank you for the insight.
How have you been brainwashed?
@@blake3001 yes. I use dish soap after I peel my scalp back.
LITERALLY, i have about 90% of the features he just mentioned Asians have an I’ve always been really insecure about it, lowkey like them more now
@@leyiaah6862 usually it’s the elders who “point” specific things out. People don’t know unless you grow up in a strict Asian household.
@sashasvengali1187 or an eating disorder/dysfunctional household. My white family picked my appearance apart, especially regarding my weight when I was 115 lbs as a high schooler, not even close to overweight. Not to mention all the comments about my frizzy hair, acne, short legs, etc.
I think it is down to our diet / food
I think it’s underrated how diet affects your skin; I’ve heard that things like collagen can make your skin way more taut
It’s all about your genes and care for your body in general. I’m Hispanic and look 15-20 years younger. I recently got out of the 15-25 looking range lol I’m 50
You just got lucky with your genes. It's quite rare for a non-zoomer european race to look 30 in their 50s
I know someone like you, but he's Chinese. A Chef instructor at my culinary school he was always mistaken for a student...
Where you drinking alcohol often in your life? I noticed people who drink more tend to look way older
Who told you this? Yourself??
Even if it were true, it's just a YOU thing... it's not a thing for your ethnicity at all
And it's a general thing for Asian race so stop being a hater.
lol and would other people say the same about you? "Im super good looking, trust me". 20 years younger?! not a chance.
A flatter mid face is soooo underrated. So many people look so good and so snatched with flatter cheeks then they ruin it and give themselves pillow face with filler 😭
as a Korean woman who used to be so ashamed and insecure of how pronounced my cheekbones were, it’s mind-boggling to see that people will really pay hundreds and thousands of dollars to put artificial stuff in their face and still not come close to my natural filler lol.
Use umbrella everytime avoid UV it's much better than your sunscreen.
I’m Asian and 17. My friend’s friend thought I was 12-13. me being 17, I can definitely tell who’s a preteen or not, and it’s def not me
I think that some Asians tend to have Oilier skin than Western counterparts. There obviously have to be exceptions but growing up I noticed a lot of skin care was targeted at larger pores, often cause by oily skin. Having more naturally oily skin can make a person look younger or to develop less wrinkles. People with dry skin who do not moisturize will develop wrinkles earlier.
Finally something positive about having oily skin😭 I literally have the oiliest skin EVER and i hate it
Lol. Finally, someone's correct about Asian's natural oil in the skin. However, it's only 1/2 of it it's true. The other 1/2 has to do with genetics.
For example, black people naturally have certain smell when they breathe around you. Male are a lot stronger than female though (not meant to be negative about black people. It's only compared to how similar or different about our human genetics). My mother used to tell us that you can always smell a "black man" when he breath around or close to us. Lol. She's right. Likewise, for Asian, they have certain oil of the natural skin. This is why they look aliitle younger than common people (i.e., Caucasian, African Americans, etc.). BUT, all Asian people can always tell their own real age to each - but not Westerners. Westerners would probably think Asian people are 10 or 15 years younger. Lol. For an example...the first pix (girl)), I'm certain, Westerners would probably think she's 18 or 19 years old. To a regular Asian person, he/she might think this girl's around 28 to 34. Lol.
I'm asian a have an oily face the problem is prone to pimples
@@artnerd7671i have oily face and never have any pimple .
Trust me. If you are asian, you don't like too much sun. I swear.
Im surprised he didn’t mention how camera lenses distort facial features especially on phones. Making features appear bigger or smaller at times. That’s really the biggest reason a lot of people look different on camera than they do in person. There’s been so many times where I have seen someone in person and they look way different in pictures.
True. I look much better in person and so does my boyfriend. Cameras distort your body too, depending on how you point them.
I am 19 and going to college soon, uncomfortable that they still think that I am a child
Definitely me, SEA, have chubby face, people always mistakenly think im 19/20/21 but im actually 26.
Everyone ages. Just that only some age gracefully. Instead of worrying about aging, be happy and always try to bring happiness into the life of those around you. Be humble and be patient. Happiness and inner peace work better than any botox or any other drug, I assure you. Love, and be loved. Life may be fleet of foot, but an act of kindness or one that brings joy, will live on for eternity. People who only crib and curse and are always unhappy, will always look older, no matter what they do.
Its the use of sunscreen and better skincare practices. I adopted these things and I literally stopped aging. They work!
yes that can help, but it's really more genetics
It's the food and water. I noticed western ppl don't drink water often.
I love that my native blood comes from east Asia, because I'm 33 and don't have a single wrinkle 😂
I also take care of my skin though
We south-east asians that always bombarded by sun🥺🤣
Yaaa... so spot on, always
To look younger always keep your skin hydrated and moisturised, a good dose of sunscreen and a balanced weight
Besides genetics, colourism in Asian cultures (and I mean most if not all of them) plays a huge role as well. Cultural motivation to wear sun screen, long sleeves and use parasols = Less sun damage.
I concur with this video. People always think I am 10 years younger than my age.
My sister went to Canada and paid all bus and attraction tickets in high school student price. She was already 23 at that time and people just assumed she was still a school student 😂😂
High schoolers r 18 at oldest in canada, happened to me too it's bc 18 n 23 isn't much of a difference
😭
The Dua Lipa shade tho
Honestly, I don't think there's any shade. She has a pretty "standard face" in the west, is around the same age as the Asian counterpart, and has the same/similar coloring.
Using her face is an easy way to show the differences between Asian and Caucasian features without highlighting unnecessary and unrelated differences.
SHES NOT CAUCASIAN STFU
@@IfYouMeetAWolf Sure, but they could have chose an anonymous people just as easily. I was only being half serious btw.
@@IfYouMeetAWolfDua is a Illyrian. Therefore not a Caucasian
@@heyyou.. Who is she then?
Also, a major thing you’re leaving out. Asian cultures tend to heavily emphasize sun protection. Caucasians rarely even wear sunscreen.
Wish I was asian. I look 50 when I am 34
Black people age very well, too!
Specifically Africans
not really, yall look ugly once you get 30.
@@sweetlemonade6925 black people all come from Africa.. so wdym “specifically”?
True. They have good skin genes
For the same reasons but there was an interest in not negatively targeting the dominant group with a disadvantage so everyone was thrown into the "other ethnic group" pot.
We also avoid sun exposure
That why Asian are weak when come to sport
I live around Asian immigrants. They take avoiding sun very seriously
That's really the main reason. Because there are elderly Asian people who spent a lot of time in the sun working outside and they have a lot of wrinkles.
This. Excess exposure to the sun tend to accelerate aging.
How they get vitamin d? Also, is dark skin considered unattractive?
Asian and African genetics is top tier, I cant tell what age none of my grandparents are or aunts are, They just look the same since I was a child or better.
Being healthy and not overweight also helps.
I kid you not, I still had baby fat in my early 20’s. I’ve only started looking somewhat an adult at 30.
30 is the new 20 in Asia.
Same here and I’m 24. My little brother’s girlfriend told me I looked younger than her and she just graduated high school. I’ve always had a baby face and am at a normal BMI, not overweight or underweight.
I’m 1/2 black 1/2 Japanese. I just stopped getting carded 2 years ago and I’m 46. I think it’s the gray streaks in my hair 😂😂😂
@@hanajwow haha xD
I was told I looks like freshman in college or even in high school when I was at the age of 30.
@@ignotus887yup you guys do look old Hahahah even if you guys are much younger.
"Asians" it's time to cut off this hugely misleading term. Look wt the map of Asia, it's huge and diverse and not limited to any specific ethnicity.
Correct but it doesn’t discredit that east and central Asians are the Asians with the high cheekbones factor; while south and Southeast Asia are less prominent. Hence the east and central tend to look younger then their actual age.
It's just a term referring to people who are from Asia. If some people don't know that Asia consists of more than a few countries, that's their problem. The term itself has nothing wrong with it my god
@@roze4412 agreed
It doesn't but it's way too general since Asia is huge. Filipinos are Austronesian and closer related to Polynesians for example than to Chinese or Japanese. Other Asians are closer related to Europeans than other Asians so it's meaningless genetically culturally and linguisticly@@roze4412
EXACTLY. It's so FUCKING annoying hearing from dumb americans thinking automatically 'oh asian = mongoloid!!!!!!1!!1', no you dumbasses, Asia encompasses only a small part where east or south east Asians inhabit. The rest is the majority of Russia, India, pakistan, West Asia, Turkey, Bangladesh, Nepal, Mongolia, and loads of other countries as well. It's just a really fucking STUPID and annoying term to use by mostly AMERICANS to refer to chinese/mongoloid people/races when in fact Asia contains hundreds of different races, nationalities, and minorities. CALL THEM FUCKING EAST ASIAN AND BE DONE WITH IT!!!!! The stupid fucking term drives me mad too. My little speech has finished!!!! Out
Has anyone noticed when they get very old they suddenly develop loads of wrinkles overnight?
i'm corean and used to date a ginger girl. her daily skin care was fifty times the effort i ever took ever.
Yes I am Indonesian man 66 years old but many people think that I am 45-50 y o😊
Oh congratulations! Do you want a gold star? Just kidding. Nobody cares, old man
"Why do Asians generally looks so much younger to wester eyes?" is the proper tittle
No. You can measure visual signs of aging universally by things like wrinkling, thinning skin, etc
They are also more neotenous which makes them look younger regardless of aging. They have a younger looking starting point
Nah, it should be "Why do EAST Asians generally look so much younger than white people?" And the most prominent reason is: because they have flatter face. The more contours and angular your face is, the more wrinkles
Yeah, they probably used Western cameras for these photos. Gotta use Sony
/s
No. "Why do Westerners look much older than asians" is proper. Half of the population is asians sooooo
I went to get pre-screening for lasik surgery and doctor and nurses kept asking me where my parents were/ talking to me like I was a child ("where's your mum and dad, sweetie?").
We were all Asians. I was 27. I knew I should've worn make up.
I have that face shape (I'm not asian so none of the other benefits) but I do get confused for someone a lot younger often...now I know why
When you guys making an actual video
Skin care is also a huge thing. No genetics would save someone with bad habits
Um. Ever heard of black don't crack? I think Asians and black people have the most excellent aging and can still look 20 years young at 50 yrs of age
DNA is the number 1 factor & habits will help. My dad is 65 & he looks like 45 for eastern Asian people. Never took care of his diet and skin, never went to the gym, 1-2 packs of cigarettes per day & regularly drinking alcohol. 😂
Y’all say this yet most europeans I meet have extensive skin care routines and still age like milk. Most blk ppl don’t wear sunscreen
Skin care and especially avoiding sunlight contribute a fair bit, but genetics are by far the most important factor
Yeah I definitely know humans with good genes who have survived some horrible self abuse. It's unfair to say the least. It's why it's called the "genetic lottery".
This is applicable for east/southeast asians. Even you put them besides younger looking southasians(pakitanis, indians etc) ,east/southeast asians still look younger than them.
On the other hand, it also masks underlying health problems usually actionable on the part of other people who want to feel conscious about their facial age.
Asian don’t raisin, black
Don’t crack. There’s plenty of Asian women at my local beauty supply store I think they’re my age (late 20s) and they’re closer to my parents (late 40s). I was stunned.
They are so beautiful!
No
😂
They also have extra facial muscles which keep the skin from sagging
I know a lot of asians that look their age or even older. This seems to have no actual science basis at all lol comparing asian celebrities, whom have access to everything that make them look younger (that "young" look being their beauty standard) and western celebrities that have access to everything to make them look more mature (mature being westerners beauty standard) makes no sense. I particularly don't see reasoning behind this, because irl, when you visit these countries (western or asian) there will always be people that look younger, older, their age, beautiful, ugly, average... humans are not that different in different countries and races when you actually get to see it in person.
Except when they reach 60, then they look like they're 80
i mean if they have to wait a to 60 to look old, thats still a win. At least they look young before 55.
Still younger looking than other ethnic groups at that age 😅
It depends. My mom is 62 now, and look still 10 years younger because of how she takes good care of her skin despite of working in the hot country like mid-east
And then by that time caucasians who are 60 look 100? 😂
60 years of looking young? LOL sounds like a W, not a L so why comment
They don't. It depends on who you compare. My ex-bf's mother (Chinese) used to say this all the time... as she got her eyes done to have a double eyelid and a face lift.... Asian people get jowls, wrinkles, and undereye hollowing just like the rest of us. Generally speaking, rounder faces give an illusion of youth- from afar.
I've noticed that too. They might look younger in their childhood and 20s, but they catch up
Exceptions dont make the rule. You cant use your experience and apply it to the fact 😂😂😂😂 fact is Asians just look younger whether you like it or not
@@nocturnalwolf7559 okay, but define looking younger. I think both women in the video look their age. We just associate Asian features with youth, that's the problem I think
i'm indonesian and now i'm turning 28. when i meet weast friend they don't believe it. they always think that i'm like a teenage or senior high school student 🙂
im north african, my mom looks younger than me at the age of 53 (i'm 22y.o) . she gets cat called in the streets, most ppl think she's my sister. an older sister at best.
