1:44 yeah, inner beauty is important but that doesn't mean you need to make her look like an alien.

[hiyaa]

USA: 60% said inner beauty counted the most

Also USA: Has the most unatural photoshop look

[SRMkay]

German and Indonesian "Photoshop experts": Hm... maybe if I turn the brightness up by 200%... there we go, perfect

[clarissalamarr]

I'm thinking maybe those "experts" were all men who edited her depending on their own preferences.

0:35 I live in India, and there’s no such requirement to make your eyebrows look like caterpillars. :)
