I think it sounds like I’m screaming in the beginning (I have yet to get a mic sorry lol)

Indian women are some of the most beautiful, jaw dropping women I've ever seen!! Large dark eyes, long dark silky hair, deep rich complexions like you seriously can't beat that.

As an indian here are a few more tips:
- everything is related to your gut health. Focus on your gut health to treat all health issues
- And indian herbs like ashwagandha can be a game changer for you
- worship your femininity. We have regular fasts where we celebrate our feminine power and that our body is a vessel of great spiritual energy
- engage yourself in creative hobbies. Both my grandmas have passed down amazing handcrafting skills like crochet, embroidery
- find your colour and understand if silver suits you more or gold

the way you portrayed the fair skin stereotype and also gave its cause made me so happy as someone who went through a lot because of this. Indians are now starting to embody our natural skin tones and dropping the fairness creams, hopefully we will see more of this acceptance in future <3

I had the opportunity to go to India and I visited New Delhi, Jaipur, Kochi, and another place I cannot remember...SO beautiful. I am a black woman, and it was not a bad experience. Everybody was so kind. I am not sure they see too many black women. People wanted to take pictures with me. Beautiful. I love indian culture and their food.

As a blk American woman myself I absolutely love the culture and style that Indian women have, they’re so beautiful and I love their garments and traditional wear that they wear! Great video 😊😍😍😍

[jarbincks]

I'm an egyptian girl and I think indian women are so beautiful, like angels sent down from heaven. Thank you for sharing this video, love to indian ladies

[pjm]

as an Indian, I never hear anyone talking abt us in a positive light so this was refreshing to see😭❤️

[SoldSoulforSeoul]

Worshipping the Divine Feminine is a game changer. As a non Indian Hindu woman when I consciously started worshipping the Goddess I have accepted my femininity, sexuality and individuality fully despite of the foreign idea of femininity that was forced upon us. Strength, independence & power are actually considered feminine qualities in Hinduism, unlike what those alpha male podcasters are trying to feed us.

Indian women have the most beautiful hair on the planet! I find the combination of deep, dark complexion and natural, straight or wavy hair mesmerizing! 🧡💚

[vxbcdky]

I loved that you showed all shades bc I’m a black Indian with dark skin and tight coils it was fresh to see

[Tomisinshalewa]

As a Nigerian, i look forward to attending an Indian wedding one day. It'll be crazyyy😂😂

[skies]

Love this video cuz of the recent indian hate and racism on twitter is insane rn i just saw a engagement farming tweet saying "even the most beautiful indian women is mid" i was literally funing indian women definitely are sone of the prettiest in the world and no anount of hate or racism towards can change the fact

Ideas for future videos :
- Middle Eastern women (not just arabs but include other middle eastern ethnic groups such as yazidis, jews, kurds, assyrians etc)
- Habesha women (east african)
- West African women
- Balkan women
- Central Asian women (kazakh, turkic etc)
- South East Asian women

16:30 we usually call Khol as "Kajal". And we make it at home naturally, & use it in different forms. Actually its my first time hearing word khol.
We use kajal since birth, if u ever see an Indian baby be it rich or poor, they all are covered with kajal. I've never used any artificial kajal till today. It has ayurvedic significance, but make your look beautiful & majestic too.
There's a saying, kajal protects you from evil eyes, hence its more relevant throughout ages

As an Indian girl (17years) it's so heart warming to see people around world prasing us ... believe me all the people i saw around the world are just beautiful...belive in your self and just be confident (forgive me if there is any mistake ) btw if you ever come to india don't forget to visit madhya pradesh (jabalpur there are just some of the amazing waterfall)...well love you all ❤️

[Sky-yw]

I love the comment section, how women from different parts of worlds are appreciating ❤❤ love y'all 👑

Thank you for this. I was adopted & raised in the USA. Last year I just learned & incorporated hair oiling & turmeric kojic soap! It’s cool to know, even though I was not raised in India, I intuitively follow a similar lifestyle (exercise, food etc)

thank you for this video! I have always never seen this type of representation of Indian woman- a positive one that is. it has somewhat healed the younger me. (I say this in reference towards the western beauty standards) again thank you 🙏🏾

Curd is not made with acidic anything. Indian Curd is simply yogurt. It's made by people at home by saving a little bit of culture and making a weekly batch or even daily. There is no sweetener added in Indian curd, aka dahi.

[Harms]

Im half Black half Indian and this was a beautiful video🙏🩷
