When are we going to stop making human beings feel bad for looking like human beings?! Seriously! It's 'ok' to have skin texture on your arms, your legs and your feet - but you should definitely NOT have any on the skin on your face! Good grief woman! Your face skin should look like glass! WTF GUYS!!! Why are we like this! Literally every single person on the PLANET has skin texture. Whether their pores are enlarged or small, whether they have fine lines or wrinkles when they smile - no one's skin is actually airbrushed in real life. No influencer or celebrity ACTUALLY looks like they do in edited pictures. If you have skin texture, you DON'T need to get rid of it, and you don't need to feel bad about it. It's society's attitude to beauty that needs to change - not you. - Jak na to + styl

Please please please know that your soul is precious, you’re not a mistake. I thank Lord Jesus Christ for your life. ✝️❤️💜🤍✝️
Love this, Spot On
when i met ariana i remember being taken back by how normal she looked in person. like still drop dead gorgeous but with textured skin and her eyeliner wasn’t exactly identical. it was really nice to see
Omg the eyelinerrrrrr. Probs cuz of her asymmetrical brows
Love that Pete called her out for spraypainting herself. Why can't we just be normal?
@@lenadahling ..spray painting ? How can one do that to themselves in a good way..what ?
@@mistypedhi Spray tan? It was part of his bit. Look it up.
Many of my former classmates would look like models on their social media but irl they would just look like average girls
I'm pretty high rn so the intro was certainly an experience
hahahahaha i can imagine
I love that 🤣🤣
Lol…fabulous darling!
I’m glad I wasn’t alone on that
😂😂😂😂😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙃🙃🙃🙃
i used to wear foundation and be annoyed at how it didn't cover my skin texture, so i stopped wearing it. honestly skin looks so much nicer without foundatin because i think foundation highlights the texture even more
Soo true
same here, I go for lighter makeup but I actually use korean skincare products and it helped with it a lot
It does!!!!
Me too! And plus I can't stand the feeling of it!! I used to wear it 3 shades lighter in middle school 💀🤣
I agree sometimes foundation makes my skin look worse I just assumed I must not know how to put makeup on. It just highlights my imperfections instead of hiding them..now I just go light on the foundation less is more
Tell me why Angelina Jolie’s unedited photo with real skin texture was even more beautiful than the photoshopped one 😭
Bc she's a naturally gorgeous woman and has had the best treatments in Hollywood. Tbh.
Celebrities have access to the highest quality products. If we could afford them, we would have skin like that too 😂
Yesss I agree
Also Margot Robbie
Genetics. There's a reason she has so many imitators, admirers and people who love to hate her.
I feel bad for the young girls growing up in a fictional society. I was a teen in the age of magazines, and that was bad enough with airbrushing, but social media has taken it to a whole other level. It's a sad state of affairs. I wish there were many more influencers like yourself who are honest and real. Love your guts 💗
Agree. I wouldn’t cope if I was a teenager today.
Right??? I don't know how they do it. I couldn't go through puberty with this kind of pressure.
I know!
Even as a adult sometimes I look at my skin and think it shouldn't have texture only because we don't see on social media. I don't have social media apart from CZcams and it can still make you feel insecure.
Yes it's hard 😪 😔 we always see the ugly in ourselves and never enjoy or admit to the beauty we all have as individuals 💔
Honestly, as a former makeup artist, I get so frustrated trying to explain to my girlfriends that IRL skin CANNOT look instagram perfect. I have had women tell me I’m just watching the “wrong videos”. Regular working class women like me, who truly believe pores can just be erased with foundation! What a ridiculous standard! The reality is, IMHO, real skin is more beautiful anyway. I think the fine lines add character and depth, to women who are working every day as moms, friends, wives, daughters. The trials of life show on our faces and thats wonderful! We should not hide from this fact! Even knowing the poreless look is a big lie, I fall into the trap of comparison. We have to hold each other by continuing to acknowledge this. ❤️
Wow 🤦♀️!
And you are a makeup artist !! Wrong videos 🤭😁..
Tbh I wouldn't dare to say to a Professional that The Videos were wrong.. that's too funny 😂😂
your knowledge Must have come from YT or something.
Not from education or working..
I'm still laughing..smh
Hey from Helsinki 😊
So true! I think heavy makeup looks a lot worse than natural skin with its imperfections.
@@Ms10yearsafter you even understand what she commented? Lol you're so silly
Right. The girls look perfect on social media but I can’t find a perfect, flawless & poreless IG honey to save my life. The filters are extremely misleading, especially for the youth
@@gantonella477 i think they were laughing about the people who told the original commenter that they're wrong or watching the wrong videos, not about the og commenter herself
I honestly look at my skin texture and can’t even stand to take a selfie anymore so thank you for this
I went through a phase a few years ago where i was trying my best to find out how other women's makeup looks so perfect. Tried so many "pore perfectors", primers, etc and none of them did a damn thing. Turns out it was airbrushing I was trying to achieve 😅🤣
😁🤣
Really enjoyed reading...
Thats what cosmetic brands want. Us, costumers to spend many money to something that is nearly impossible to achieve. Its simple if we have insecurities they earn money. We should not believe what we see and specifically what they say..
Haha same!!
I used to think I looked so ugly when I wear foundation because I didn't understand why my skin texture was visible while everyone else's wasn't. I rarely wear foundation anymore because I don't like to wear it. I prefer to let my skin breathe. I appreciate these videos.
Same for me..I hate foundation!
Bb creams and tinted moisturizers are perfect for that. If you so choose to ever want to use one instead.
I never understood why I can't find a good color match and everybody else can. Yeah, because studio lighting
Yeah I always wondered why makeup influencers say X foundation is great, yet it doesn't blend my skin texture. Yep I really thought it was supposed to erase it.
I cant handle foundations they are so awful on me
One of my exes loved acne and scars on my face, he said" these type of girls look badasses, their skin shows like they have gone through alot and it's deep and beautiful"
That is so sweet
I've had acne for over 10 years now and, kinda like someone accepting their freckles, I ended up linking the scars and hyperpigmentation all over my cheeks, I never use foundation but when I do and it covers my cheeks it feels so unsettling to look at the mirror, like the person I'm looking at it's not me
Why would you like acne? That's not cute or healthy. I wouldn't want someone's pimples popping on me. Gross! Like a butterface
I agree! I’ve always called them my “battle scars” lol
he was just trying to make u feel better hun
Thank you for being real! I refuse to use filters on my phone, fb or instagram. I hate how fake the world has become!
Me too I sell makeup and skin care and never use filters I want to keep it real
This made me smile. Love it.
Same and unfortunately I still hear women say "well all women use filters " very sad Im 51 so didn't come of age with social media, fortunately I feel for what young women have to deal with now.
Yesss count me in.😂❤
This is exactly what I needed someone to say to me growing up with severe acne. When I was upset people would just say something like "you don't have THAT many spots.. "
I was DESPERATE for someone to say yes, you do have acne, but you are beautiful and your skin does not detract from your beauty
You are doing young girls an amazing service by making videos like this. As a 14 year old this would have saved me years of self loathing
I really liked your video so much.
"When are we as a society going to stop making human beings feel bad for looking like human beings?" - Stephanie Lange 2022
THIS.
I'm gonna quote that in some essay 😂
Capitalism has monetized beauty, so never.
@@spleenetico make sure you cite it. 😁
I love your comments...
Women actually impose this on women. Women set what's important. Men actually don't care about the hierarchy that women set for themselves. Where as women care a lot about what men set for other men. I.e. athletic, strong, rich men. Women care about makeup, contouring, fashion. But men do not. Men have very low standards when it comes to women. Trust me.... ANY 'mid' can sleep with a hot guy. Any guy WOULD sleep with an obese and/or below average woman...lol. Women have extremely high standards towards themselves AND towards the men they choose to sleep with or date.
I respect anyone who has the talent and patience to do any sort of makeup. I never had either in that department, that being said.... The OBSESSION about looking so "perfect" that it looks fake is absolutely insane to me. I will never understand the obsession of people who want to look like computer generated beings. It's weird and I really just don't like it one bit.
Same here 😩
How boring we have become 🤔..I'm with you on this one for Sure!
Same features all over..Nah!!
not for me then
Greetings from Finland 👋
You explained this perfect lol
The thing is, social media had just made us think that perfect skin is achievable, and not 'inhuman' or 'computer generated', so the opposite is considered bad skin. It's sad.
I don't get it either! All these women are so much more beautiful looking like their real selves!
I went to high school in the 2010s and remember telling my boyfriend at the time how I wanted to get all these surgeries and procedures to “fix” and “change” me. In 2018, I had lip filler and hated it. Some of the things I once hated about myself are now features my baby has, and I love them on him. 👶🏻💙 Maybe being a mama has changed all that. Additionally, I had great support in my boyfriend (now husband) who would not only give me compliments, but made me believe in myself more, and helped me to become a better version of myself. 👨👩👦
P.s. If you haven’t heard this today, from a mama to you: 💞
1. “You’re like, really pretty.”
2. “You is kind, you is smart, you is important.”
3. “You’re doing amazing, sweetie!”
4. I’m so proud of you.
5. And, I love you.
Amazing ! I learned so much.
thank you for the last message, i’m glad your husband supports you. sending love to you (๑╹ω╹๑ )
Love this! When I was 13 and getting my tonsils and adenoids taken out, my mom floated the idea of getting my nose done at the same time. All the good Jewish girls were getting it done, but I never did. 25 years later, my 3rd kid came out with my nose! And I absolutely love it.
♥
A gentle reminder: WEARING MAKEUP SHOULDN'T ALTER OUR APPEARANCE BUT ENHANCE OUR NATURAL BEAUTY. ❤❤❤
Or makeup can be for whatever you want including transformative art
Even as someone in my late 30s, I still need to see stuff like this. Videos like these are super important and I love your energy in them!
I think even more us sometimes as we are expected to look like we are in our early twenties . We have responsibility and bills and don't have surplus cash for lots of Botox and fillers etc 🙄
Love your work !
I have been so insecure lately about my skin texture. I am in my 30s but suffer from body dysmorphia and have had 3 major plastic surgeries and none of it has helped me. I have had my nose, chin, and boobs done. Now I obsess over my teeth (I wear dentures and have implants due to past drug addiction) and long philthrum.
I deleted all of my social media except for CZcams. I binged all of your videos over the past few days and they have helped me more than my therapist has. Thank you so much!
I'm 28 and had surgery on my boobs. I don't like it and want it adjusted but can't afford it rn. I feel like deleting all social media (but yt) and watching Stephanie's vids have helped me as well. We are all just trying to live our lives, and we're all not perfect. I feel better not seeing anything I *should* be. I just want to feel healthy and put together in my own way.
I'm sending you happy vibes through the internet. You're doing amazing by taking time to help yourself, no matter what is!! 💕
You are so brave to say this. I suggest you keep away from social media, it's all fake and build up irreal standars.
😘😘 I wish you all best
Love, hugs and prayers
🥺🥺🥺 i don’t know what you look like but im sure you’re beautiful. The fact that you know how toxic social media is is so good!
Sending you the best vibes ✨✨
You aren’t alone!! More of us feel that way too but don’t have the guts to admit it like you just did! Kudos to you 🥰
I remember years ago, when I just got into doing makeup, I used to feel so let down and sad when I apply foundation, and I would still be able to see my acne bumps, I always felt like I was doing it wrong because compared to makeup up online, it's even crazier when you follow a tutorial step by step and you don't get the airbrushed skin result. Now I know better and I'm grateful for videos like this so younger girls can look up to reality not perfection❤
Love your work.
She be coming close to the camera showing her ✨texture✨. Bruh her face was still smooth 😭
Gotta respect this girl. She's a real one
Ew this comment ain’t it
@@marianaoceanblue everyone is entitled to an opinion. If that's what you think more power to you
Absolutely agree !
Love what you do.
As a looooong time acne sufferer (pretty much my whole life and I’m 41 now) this is one of my favorite videos. I have such a hard time with seeing super duper perfect skin all the time. It really affects my self esteem 😞
i got rid of my acne with medical medium's books check it out. his info is all free anyway
Same (I'm mid-30s). It's so frustrating. I feel like I've had to watch my face be slowly devoured over 17 years.😖 I have gotten really good results with antibiotics, though, and now I've started on Spironolactone. I want to see if I can get my skin clear with that, but if not I'll do Accutane. You apparently only need to do 1 or 2 rounds of it and you're done! I'm nervous about side effects though...
I’m 23 and sometimes I think about how I’ve dealt w acne for 10 years now / 8 of those years have been dealing w severe painful acne 😫 and it’s not about “being healthy” or “clean” it’s literally genetics. No matter what I do or eat it’s still there. I still have acne but I’m mostly dealing w scarring and hyperpigmentation like ALL over my face/ mostly my cheeks. Things like this can be helpful bc everyone ik irl really does have severe acne free skin :))
i’m with you on that, sis! 🤍
Go to a dermatologist or esthetician ?
i want to just thank you so much for this video! I live currently in Korea and they have very high standards for ‘Glass skin’ so it made me feel bad for having just human skin and this video really cheered me up! Thank you so much
Clicked for the celebrity content, stayed for the personal closeups! Girl, I love how real you are!
I feel as if certain platforms have created a whirlwind of insincerity, guilt over being human, possibly narcissistic qualities and worries over "am I good enough?", or "why can't I achieve this?". Too much time wasted on that than on living life to the fullest. It only goes by quicker with age. Enjoy life and care less about trivial things. I know they've done it in other countries, but disclosure would be nice. I can't imagine growing up with instagram, thinking this is normal. We grew up with magazines, but I truly feel that the whole editing thing has become even worse and a little "cartoony" at times, especially with impossible body shapes. Also the fart comment 😭😂 preach it chica!
Couldn’t agree more!!
Guys, please know that sin is leads to hell dear souls, please consider your eternity, will you go to Heaven or burn in hell and ultimately they lake of fire?

@@hillarysudeikis2264 I'm not heterosexual and hurt myself physically quite a lot in the past. Will I still go to heaven in your book?
@@swagittarius5748 I’m not the one who can send you to heaven dear only Lord Jesus Christ can, and He can definitely forgive you if you’re willing to repent and follow Him. There’s still hope.
You've helped me feel so much less anxiety about having "perfect" skin. Thank you!
Do what you love.
I am having such a crisis of confidence about my skin at the moment and this really helped put things into perspective- thanks so much! I love how you don’t rag on the celebs and say that they’re beautiful just as their normal selves!
I love what you do. My acne scared skin has always made me feel insecure and ugly. We are so over exposed to those fake pictures and videos of people with "perfect skin" that we think that is the reallity and that there's something wrong with us.
Texture is one of the main reasons I never wear things like foundation. I feel like they make your skin texture worse.
Yes I tried around 30 different foundation every single one looked awful now I am planning to take a stick only for spot concealing but only with moisturizer.
This is exactly the content searching...
Yep, I didnt start wearing makeup until 27 and my skin looks worse despite never having good skin. i just need to stick to spot concealer
I found myself comparing myself to reality show stars because thier skin looks flawless, than I remembered they use really high quality cameras that make you look great.
Some cameras even have airbrush filter built in! Sony alpha for one!
@@stephanielange interesting I’d want that type of camera
You are the person who stopped my insecurities about my skin, face and makeup. Was a few videos you did a loooooooooooong time ago that opened my eyes (pun lol). I'm glad to see you are still fighting the good fight and helping others the way you helped me. The pressure is ridiculous!
I got positive chills multiple times watching/listening to you in this video!! Your words mean so much, and make a huge difference in how I view myself. Thank you! Videos like this are needed to start busting open unrealistic beauty "standards" and changing expectations of one another.
When I first started watching youtubers I didn't realize the lighting, etc helped so much and have to admit it made me feel like my skin looked horrible! But I get why and understand skin is skin. Thank you for doing these videos!!
I love fashion...
"Like what the heck is glass skin?!...... stop it!" 🤣 love it! Love the honesty vibes Stephanie ❤
Make a living doing what you love.
Thank you for being so upfront and honest about something that needs to be absolutely addressed as much as necessary!! I also think your unphotoshopped advertisements are really, really cool. Thank you for being different and dare to be, well, human!
I been watching you a few years and I rarely ever comment but I LOVE how vocal and aware you are about the issues with “perfection” in social media. I’m a 42 yr old beauty content creator and makeup artist over 20 yrs.
After 3 yrs on CZcams I still film on my IPhone 📲 so I don’t have any type of filters (I film lots of Live content).
BUT Sometimes I feel pressured to smooth some of my lines on my IG posts because my regular posts seem to barely get any views.
The fact that I’m not 20-28yrs old I feel behind in the game, but I do what I love and beauty & laughter is my passion so I stick to it no matter how I look ! 🥰
Love your content always and you’re definitely appreciated for keepin it real baby girl 😎
Funny how in certain cinema animation they try to texturize characters' skin and define expression lines to make them more realistic (and perceived by our brains as ""less weird"") while in real life people try the opposite.
Awesome. Thanks...
The way I see it if your skin had no skin texture then your skin would have no story to tell! Every imperfection is perfection, we are all perfectly imperfect and that's beautiful!
Exactly! And it wouldn’t be skin lol!
Guys, please know that sin is leads to hell dear souls, please consider your eternity, will you go to Heaven or burn in hell and ultimately they lake of fire?

This comment is quite disturbing. I have zero skin texture I have never used makeup to cover my face and I am absolutely in love with the face I was born with and always exude confidence because confidence is what I feel 100%. How dare you say that I have no story to tell. I have the best story to tell. Learn to be happy for everyone around you learn to love yourself and then the world will be a better place. I'm always happy and that is because I love myself I love everyone around me and every day is a great day because I feel great in my heart and in my soul and who I am. Every single human being is different no two are the same that is the beauty of humanity. So don't ever go around saying that no skin texture means that you don't have a story to tell because everyone has a story to tell and everyone is beautiful if they love everyone around them and themselves.
@@KAYLAKARBAN I meant no offense to anyone by the comment that I made on this video. I will agree with you in saying that no two people are alike and that everyone has a different story to tell... and yes you absolutely should love yourself and the skin you were born with! Because everybody's body is beautiful just the way it is! However you can't say that you or anyone else has no skin texture... although you can't see it with the naked eye, it's still there. Everyone on this earth has pores, peach fuzz (hair on their face), acne or acne scars.... that's all considered skin texture! Along with dry skin, rosacea, fine lines and wrinkles.... those are also skin texture and every single one of them is absolutely beautiful! I hope that you have a wonderful day and may the Lord bless you and yours 😊!
I've never felt that empowered as I feel after watching this video. Thank you very much for your work 😊
I've watched you for years, like... At least 5+ years. I love that you're pointing out the lies. I don't use social media anymore because.. mental health. And, I can't handle blatant lying.
Lol its very funny but why on earth influencers think that we are into believing that they're some sort of special people walking on the earth with not even a single pore on their skin or bumps or texture. Recently I've started loving my textured face more than an airbrushed one. Idk but pores on skin looks so much better and human
i thought i was just flawed for ages lol, but then i realised that no one's skin is airbrushed in reality! and mine was never going to look that way haha
Because some people do think that. Thats the issue.
There's an overlap between narcissists and social media influencers, not all of them but you have to be somewhat full of yourself to brand yourself in such a way
The Kardashians are a zombie plague, who live in a prison of their own making.
They don’t. We need more breaks from social media
Thank you for showing your skin up close. Last night I was VERY down on myself while looking in the mirror. I struggle with ocular rosacea and rosacea on my face and seeing that people without these conditions still have texture on their face and red in their eyes helped me heal today. im too hard on myself. im not that different from everyone else. thank you for this.. needed it.
I have yellow spots in the white of my eyes, don’t remember the exact terms of it, and I always being very insecure about it. Plus dark purple circles under my eyes but hey, life too short to worry about things like that. It’s difficult though sometimes
It would probably sound weird, but this is something that I do whenever I have an insecurity about something-I just try to picture it in a cute funny magical and lovely way. You have redness? Great, so you look like a beautiful flower. You have pimples? So they're like blossoms on the trees or stars in the night? Yellow spots in the eyes? Just like flowers in a meadow or sugar decoration in ice cream (or eyes cream xd). Circles under the eyes? Just like butterflies, or royal pillows to hold the beautiful eyes, the window to an even more beautiful soul. I know it might sound silly to some people but it helps me love myself. I hope it helps you too❤❤💞
@@thecratfywonderworld6910 that's a beautiful way to see things thank you ❤️ I will try to be more open to seeing things in a positive light
@@personplacething You're welcome, I hope you love yourself just as much as all the beauty in this wonderful world and always ❤❤💞
Yes she made me feel so much better showing us her bad skin! We are all human
I REALLY wish I'd had you when I was younger. Spent so much of my youth hating my skin texture and not enough on what really mattered. Glad you're here now!
I genuinely think your videos on these topics save lives. I’m 25 and out of most socials; I should know better and yet sometimes I still believe what I see around the internet and get extremely insecure. Then I come around here and… everything seems fine again!
I think that American culture and Asian culture has the highest, unrealistic beauty standards.
No y'all don't. While busy taking from other cultures and calling it your own. It definitely ain't it.
I just wanted to say thank you so much for making these videos💕 my self esteem was really taking a hit today when I seen my skin in a public mirror in bright lighting, it’s sad that we forget what actual skin looks like because of social media.
Google any celebrity or influencer with the keywords ‘up close’ or ‘Getty images’ and you’ll see what their skin looks like in real life minus the editing! It’s a good reminder that no one is airbrushed in reality x
I'm really glad you are addressing this. At the end of the day, we are all just humans with flaws like it or not. You've got a new subscriber!
You have such a pure soul I really hope you are genuinely this nice in person
I NEEDED to see this! I’m so sick of comparing myself to everyone I see on Instagram/television. You make me feel normal/sane, so thank you xx
Alex...this is your phone....back away from the social media. Seriously girl none of that stuff is real. It's called impression management.
@@AnimalLover-dw2wu I’ve deleted Instagram for that reason!! Thank you, it’s pretty silly really.
Work a day in your life...
Why compare? I don't understand. Every single human being looks sooo different that is the beauty of being human. No two are the same. Of course you're going to find people that are beautiful, but why feel intimidated ? why compare ? Why be jealous ? I'll never understand this. Maybe it's because I absolutely love who I am and have always been very confident, but even if I wasn't who I am I feel like I would never compare myself to anyone. Never once have I thought oh I'm going to compare myself to this person or that person. I'm happy for everyone around me. I'm just obsessed with who I am and I feel like women need to realize that they need to love themselves as well
@@KAYLAKARBAN it’s not something women consciously do, I don’t think ‘oh, today I’m going to compare myself to this person’. That great for you then, and to be honest, the fact you can’t understand it obviously shows how confident you are and that’s great. But I think a lot of people, for a number of reasons don’t feel the same way you do, and as a result unconsciously compare because they probably always have or have been compared to someone by someone else. If you find it fascinating or want to learn more about it, it isn’t rare for people to feel like this.. research it and you’ll see. As I say, great for you to feel that way but your comment in itself compares yourself to people like myself who don’t feel as confident as you, so comparisons happen more often than you’re aware and you clearly compare yourself too but obviously in a more favourable way.
Wow…. It’s crazy how much editing goes into these photos :( I wish I knew all this growing up. You’re doing so much good to this world by sharing all this, Stephanie😭✨
I just started watching your videos, and you are SUCH a sweetheart! I could care less about the makeup aspect, but your outlook on body positivity is doing SO much for our young girls out there. Keep doing what you’re doing! You rock!
I kind of love seeing people's acne. I find it sweet and vulnerable about a person to see their acne, especially if they're younger and clearly have it.
I am motivated thank you.
I agree
I always felt like foundation and makeup actually makes your skin look even worse. Because it's so obvious, so it just draws attention!
Yea if u have it all caked up 80% of women really don't know how 2 correctly apply it right ' it suppose 2.leave a thin layer the point is making it look closely natural 2 your skin enhanced
So perfect.
Honestly, I'm feeling a lot better after watching this. You're a real one. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video.Ive been obsessed lately about my textured forehead and wanting so much to have a "clear and smooth" skin and the sentence you said about the doll face/skin just opened my eyes.You really don't have to be perfect you don't have to let it rule your life.
Just thank you again,it helped me so much!
My skin is the one thing I've got hangups about. I have acne pit scars, enlarged pores, crows feet and the worst thing, post inflammatory erythema. Seeing perfect skin everywhere makes life hard! Thank you for this xo
Hahaha go look at the normal people in stores none of them have perfect skin..I don't get what y'all be doing with your lives. Do y'all not talk to other humans?
@@leahjackiepeah4130 not as much as we look at the phone sadly. Even in public places, you can see almost everyone on their phones

You are Great.. Lady ❤️❤️
I love your videos; they send a powerful message not only to adults but to younger teens to embrace their own beauty and not attempt to engage in dangerous behaviors to on a quest for "catalog perfection," which we know doesn't exist.
I also wanted to say that I appreciate your honesty on this channel in general. I watched your video on your diet change 9 months ago and I wanted to applaud you for coming forward but to know that you have to do whats best for your body. I can't see logically how anyone would be disappointed in you for the change. You do you and forget any negative static from any other direction. You are absolutely fabulous. Thanks for your content; it is both entertaining and informative.
That's incredibly truthful of you Steph! Too good to see someone just say the truth and knock off the "flawless" obsession! 👍💪
Your CZcams channel is IMPORTANT! Thank you for shedding light on these subjects
Thank you ❤️❤️
Thank you for showing your skin texture in natural light , that helped me debunk the “but your skin is flawless” myth . I unfortunately actually do know people in real life with gorgeous skin but that’s my problem 😝
especially my dermatologist
Love how real you are 🙌🏼✨ these videos make me feel so much better. The way you go about it is the best
You are helping so many with this video .
Thank you . I hope this brought so much light behind the scenes . Nobody is perfect.
It’s all shine ✨ for the spotlight not reality.
I love the color of your hair 😊
Omg this video. I feel like people forget skin has texture it is how skin is, everyone has pores, everyone has bumps and it's normal but obviously since celebrities have seemingly clear and perfect and non textured skin thanks to photoshop and retouching, we beat ourselves up on this. It really isn't something to be ashamed of or be embarrassed about. It's something so normal and we need to learn to embrace it. Thank you so much for this video, I feel like it's something a lot of people need to learn about
Yes thank you!!! 😩😩😩 I struggle with acne so bad and I just turned 30, so over half my life dealing with the insecurity and feeling alone. Thank you for this ✊😔
OMG seriously Stephanie, whenever I have a day that I don't feel so hot about myself, I go to your channel and it gives me a healthy reality check. You're doing really valuable work here, thank you!
Hi Stephanie - My mum has had a series of surgeries over the last 6 months, and the stress unfortunately made me break out so badly. I've been feeling really bad about myself, but this video really changed my perspective on things. Thanks so much for making it.
Just when I thought I couldn’t love you anymore you show us your unfiltered, unedited promo pics for your collab. 😭😭😭 you are singlehandedly fighting unrealistic beauty standards and I’m here for it every step of the way 🙌🏻 Thank you for changing my perception. Thank you for inspiring me. Thank you for being you! ❤️❤️
Excellent video! Thank you for doing this. I took a pic of myself in a sweatshirt with my glasses on with no filter or makeup and posted it on my socials to show my girls that you're stronger when you accept and love yourself as you are instead of what society thinks you should be. Absolutely no regrets doing it. ❤️
I love you Stephanie you keep it real with your honesty and your not afraid of your natural beauty. You are a great positivity for woman out here.
thank you for sharing this content with us! you are seriously amazing for making these types of videos! 💗💗 my acne scars on my face have always been a BIG insecurity of mine.. but i’m done letting that hold me back!!!
I think the trend of Korean skincare plays a big part of this as well. People don’t understand that genetics play a role in this so if you’re not Korean, you can buy all their products but you’ll never have their glass skin.
Not even Koreans have "glass" skin, hun.
Their glass skin is majority of the time a filter too 😆
@@cousindexter right but i have korean friends and their gene is different. Thats why east asians generally age so slow
@@cousindexter they have smaller pores, higher collagen levels and higher sebum levels. Neoteny gene
Hi Stephanie, I hadn't seen your palette promo before this video, so I just wanted to say the photos were absolutely gorgeous, and I adore that you're being real with your followers in a 'sales setting'. It's really important, and you're making such a strong difference
Had to subscribe immediately I realized how truthful and realistic you are. Keep up
I'm beginning to see videos where people are becoming more honest about themselves. It is exciting and thank you for making us more identifiable with our flaws and imperfections.
Once again, thank you!! This made me feel so much better about my skin! I just wish celebrities would post real pictures! Girls and boys look at Instagram and feel bad about themselves, and it breaks my heart.
STEPH always the voice of reason and keeping it real....
If one person walks away from the video feeling better about themselves and realising these influencers pics are fake.... girl you saved a life!!! X
Thank you so much Stephanie. I've struggled with hormonal acne since I was 12 years old (30 now), and now that my acne is finally under control, I have scarring and wrinkles to contend with. I can totally relate to looking at a selfie I've taken and not liking the skin texture I see. I've also seriously shied away from wearing makeup because I always find it highlights my skin texture. The only way to have no pores is to project a false image of myself digitally. Real life = texture. Thank you for driving this point home!
I'm so glad you make this type of content. It's awesome to see someone being real and honest. Xx
I love the way you make it a huge point to show the realities and put ppl's insecurities to rest. It's much appreciated and admired. Regardless, you're still beautiful.🌹
You’ve made me so much more kind to myself. I want to thank you for contributing to my journey of self acceptance, not there entirely yet but you’ve definitely helped a lot. Much love Stephanie!
You are the only one on the whole CZcams that talks about it❤️ Thank you
Thank you young lady for being truthful.. many young ladies need to hear and see this. You look beautiful.
Do you know how many girls you’re helping with these videos ?!!💖💖😭
I try! ❤️❤️
Thank you for showing us your natural skin. I always compare my skin (visible pores) with others, unable to find something to 'clear it up'...its nice to see that you are just natural, normal and beautiful 😘
This one hits home because my pores are huge and my skin is oily and I keep getting the impression that everyone has much better skin than I have. I need to watch this video on repeat for a few hours.
I’ve just recently found your channel again and I love the creator you’ve become 🖤🖤
Thank you. At least I won’t have to stress to empty all my savings on expensive skincare. This has been really helpful.
yes exactly!! i actually ranted about expensive skincare that promises to 'get rid of pores and skin texture' but i cut it out as the video was getting too long lol
Stephanie thank you so much for doing these videos, I don't think you know how much you've been helping me for the past two years as a teen along with thousands of other girls and women, I am very thankful for this and wish you the best 🎇
Thanks for saying this out loud ! Means a lot for the way I feel about my skin
I'm grateful that I found your channel.
I always feel pressure because of my skin...
I'm trying to love myself, and my skin is one of the hardest part to be embraced because social judgment.
Thank you, I feel relief now.
ITS LIGHTING!!! LIGHTING is everything..it really is..LIGHTING, shadowing..can make u look skinny, fat, textured, smooth..
Ain’t that the truth!
I absolutely love these videos. As someone that used to struggle so much with my skin, it's so refreshing to see that you're having these kinds of conversations. For me, my struggles were compounded by excoriation (skin-picking) disorder, which has left my skin far from flawless, but that's okay! I think your video will help more people see that skin doesn't exist as a smooth, porcelain surface.
The design looks so cool...
The airbrushing out texture has never been a surprise to me. What always gets me is the jawline shaving in all the photos!
You are so honest and brave for it! You go lady!!!
Steph, you are what the world needs!!!
Thank you for shining a light on real beauty and helping so many people!!!
❤❤❤❤❤
I wish every one of your videos was 3 hours long I love your sweet voice and the even sweeter energy that you carry ❤️❤️❤️ thank you Stephanie and I love you and I hope you’re having the greatest start to your 2022 🤟🥳
I LOVE HER! SHE LITERALLY BOOST MY CONFIDENCE!
I LOVE YOU STEPH!!!! I love this channel
