I love the fact that I see tons of different people saying "I love woman's look!"
It just proves that everyone likes different things, and each type can be considered beautiful.

[AugustAdvice]

Unibrows were fashionable in ancient Greece? I would have fit in juuuust fine...

[xlenaqz]

I see people on the street with a pre-french revolution make-up...

The woman who did the Ancient Egyptian makeup was stunning in the before picture. Just...Wow.

[valsings]

All the women were gorgeous, but WOW! India and Japan were stunning!

I love learning about this kind of stuff! I never knew that the beauty marks were to emphasis paleness, and I find it fascinating that unibrows were seen as a thing of beauty when in today's society it's like "the worst thing ever, " to the point that some people even overpluck their eyebrows.

I think this video is very informative, and all the models are very pretty. 
I also think that this is one of the friendliest YouTube comment sections I have ever seen. Everyone seems to have something nice to say either about the girls in the video or each other's personal style. It's really refreshing.

Buzzfeed should stick to more videos like these. Entertaining and informative.

That Egyptian look was cool. Guess who's braiding their hair like that this summer?? Me!!

[Moss-fswy]

I wish I lived in the Elizabethan era, then, I have a huge forehead already

[mrss]

How beautiful was the girl who did the swinging sixties!?! She looked so bubbly and rocked that look!!!

[EmilyTheIt]

I enjoy these videos where we get to see how looks evolved over time. It's very interesting to view!

[luckypenny]

Wonderful, but why did they skip to the 60's and then to today? i wanted to see each decade

[ellementira]

Health and youth are two beauty "styles" that are universal and timeless. Everything else comes and goes. :) Wear sunscreen and take care of your skin, and have fun with the rest!

[lexiis]

I love these videos seeing how things evolve like that... every one of them were beautiful

[graciedison]

how the hell did she manage to still look hot with a unibrow???

[Racoonza]

Where's 'Instagram' era? lmao

[readerl.]

I love watching makeup videos thought I wear absolutely none in real life.

[FindingFay]

The Japanese girl was so cute! :O <3 And I like the Victorians and 60's style :)

[louisflood]
