I love you're videos, but could you please stop calling white people Caucasian because true Caucasians are actually middle esteran. Yes, there are some some white people that are Caucasian, but most aren't for they're just plain European and if they are Caucasian there's a high chance it was due to rape & colonization. So please don't call white people Caucasian it's quite hurtful to those who had to run from their country due to Europeans "conquering" they're people and to those who lost their culture to those same European. Thank you so much for hearing me out! :)
Maryam Gill You are wrong. Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, who in 1795 divided the human species into five races: Caucasian, the âwhiteâ race; Mongolian, the âyellowâ race; Malayan, the âbrownâ race; Ethiopian, the âblackâ race; and American, the âredâ race. He considered the Caucasians to be the first race on Earth, consistent with the common conception at that time of the Caucasus as a place of human origin.
@@El_Rey_Moglia Also, true Caucasians are from in between the black sea & the Caspian sea.
Remember: EVERYONE SHOULD WEAR SUNSCREEN NO MATTER THE SKIN TONE!!!

Diana Laura yup. I always wear at least spf 30 when I go out. Even in winter because the light reflects off snow.

sunscreen causes cancer :) look it up
@@pokemontas8025 There is no medical evidence that sunscreen causes cancer. There is a lot of medical evidence that UV rays from the sun and tanning beds do. If you worry that the chemicals used in sunscreens are absorbed by the skin and cause cancer, I recommend using a sunblock. Better safe than sorry ;)
@@crystalskyy9809 except it's not safe. Look up the ingredients of sunscreen instead of posting the first thing that comes up on google lmao.
Idea for the next Defining Beauty video: body hair. Per example, men having hairy chest was considered extremely attractive during the 70s-80s, and in some places with predominant âsurferâ or âbeach lifeâ culture, having blonde hair or low-contrasted hair in relation to your skin in your arms or legs (independently if youâre a man or a woman) is considered attractive as well.
Oooh I support this!
Woahhh this is a brilliant idea, Iâd love to see that.
Blonde body hair reminds me of animals bodies
Chest hair for men is still in.
Many asian men dont have hair at all (even in the legs) lol
I love sunscreen. Call me sunscreen queen. Even though Iâm ethnically brown I donât take chances. Brown skin + sun protection = fountain of immortality
I really hate how a lot of people are more focused on looks than health about skin. Healthy skin absolutely contributes to healthier aging, because it is the biggest organ of the human body and is the first line of defence against a lot of issues. Thank you for focusing on the health aspect.

Here's An idea for the next episode: Hair colour attractiveness ( Blondes, Brunettes, Redheads, Ravens etc.) and contrast between hair, eyes and skin.
Yes!!
I've read a study which showed that brown hair were seen as the most attractive, red hair the least attractive and blondes in between.
@@benebeck5628 That's quite true, though some polls will show different answers. It's sad that red hair is considered the least attractive, which might be due to religion and historical associations. I think red hair is beautiful.
Galactic NightSky Me too. To me the fact that is very rare is what makes so beautiful
@@Rocio-op7ot That and also how it looks.
How to stay young:
1. Sunscreen
2. Tretinoin
3. Collagen Supplements
@BrĂšagha I agree
*sleep*
There isn't much evidence for the last one
theres no evidence for collagen supplements. theyre stupid and overpriced. eat foods rich with amino acids and it will do what collagen supplements claim to do (if not better)
@@bean2275 Only hydrolyzed collagen is proven.
Research: Not all of these collagen supplements are necessarily effective; however, collagen supplements that contain hydrolyzed collagen from marine sources have been proven to play a protective role in skin aging.
You need up to 18 different amino acids in the right quantities and ratio to create a collagen molecule. Collagen builders made with different amino acids typically only contain glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, but not in their complete ratios and concentrations. They also lack other minor but important amino acids necessary to construct a complete collagen molecule helix chain. Hence, in comparison, Hydrolyzed Collagen is more effective because it is already a complete molecule chain and smaller size, contains the complete amino acid sequence and can be absorbed and transported to the dermis of the skin.
Iâm Black but have RELIGIOUSLY applied sunscreen on my face and neck since I was 13. Iâm 28 now. Also my diet has improved as well to slow down aging

It is a real problem how we normalize tanning and fetishize darker skin on naturally (very white) caucasian people. I am white, and have freckles. Since I was very young my family and I always went to the south of France. When I was younger I became very tanned very quickly. I am sometimes shocked of pictures from when I was like 8 because I was soooo tan. Later in life, so in my late teens and early 20's I didn't tan as easily anymore (which also is because as a kid I played in the sun constantly, but as an adult I prefer to stay in the shade). My mom and dad barely wear sunscreen so they tan like crazy, as do many friends and acquaintances we got to know going to the same place each year. You don't want to know how much people pressure you to tan and how much people ridicule you for wearing sunscreen and being (naturally) white. People say "you look like a milk bottle" and "have you even been in the sun" that's hard to take from people who don't wear sunscreen, but put tanning oil on their skin instead. Mind you these people have the philosophy "what is red, will eventually turn brown". And let me tell you, they are as red as lobsters at times but still made fun of me and my sister for being white. I don't like to admit it, but those critiques caused me to tan more and boy did I become more tan... something I wish I didn't do, because my skin's health should be more important than other people's critiques. So whilst your trying to do the good thing by protecting your skin, people who do the "wrong" thing a.k.a tan without sunscreen or with tanning oil get praised for looking beautiful and tan. It's kind of twisted.
I can relate to some of that. I'm from Southern Spain and I am super super pale, as well as all my family. In my case my parents were very aware of the sun damage, but the society "told us" that we were too pale. So my sister (which btw is a blonde blue eyed and even paler the me) and me used to spend too much time under the sun, sometimes without suncream or with tanning oil instead. I could get a little bit of tan (which is still considered so white anyway) but my sister always got super red or just got some freckles. We were only 8 to 16 years old when we were obssesed every summer about getting a tan. Fortunately, I'm already over all of that and I have accepted that my skin just can't get tanned đ But the damage of many sunburns when I was a kid/teen is already done đ
I have a similar experience. I am from southern Italy and Iaâm not too pale so I tan easily, but now I try to avoid it, while when I was a teen I did stupid things like staying hours under the sun to get the desirable tan. But now I get comments saying that Iâm âtoo paleâ (even though Iâm never really pale) during summer and that I should get a tan. Also a lot of people in Italy still donât wear sunscreen thinking is useless, but a lot use tanning beds.
@Danny Wade That's not true, lol. I mean, a tan looks pretty when you're young. But definetely not when you're old. You look even older than your age.
@Danny Wade those people are celebrities where looking attractive is literally their job. They get hundreds of procedures done. You cant compare avg people like us and those celebrities.
@Danny Wade you do realize that j lo is not white and all celebs use spray tan lol
What I know is that my mom is 67 years old and doesnât have a single wrinkle.
Same, so blessed
Akilah Creamy she were wearing sunscreen constantly or it is just fourtane genetic. I am also pale and do not wanna have wrinkles plus I am living in a place that sun is super effective on summers. I am wearing sunscreen genrally but it is so exhausted to wearing sunsreen everyday especially my eyes are so sensitive and they get watery everytime I wear sunscreen
suzi suzim antihistamine really helps for sunscreen allergy
suzi suzim and if youâre in europe buy shaka fluide invisible by la roche posay itâs eye safe. sunscreens used to always sting my eye and with the shaka fluid they donât sting, they only water. if iâm using antihistamine they donât water at all
Akilah Creamy does your mom live in a colder regiĂłn? Im from a cold region and moved to a very hot one and there is a huge difference in the skin quality of the people in both regions. In the cold state even the palest women have much better skin, while down here most of the women look like beef jerky in a blonde wig if they donât take care of their skin. Iâm not dismissing what is probably really fantastic genetics in your family, just curious. Also a lot of European women have naturally beautiful skin
Iâm 25% Korean, 25% African and 50% Caucasian so this is going to be interesting
Cool but if you did a dna test you might have more Korean or black in you depending on which dna gens you get from your parents. Thatâs why multiracial siblings wonât have the same amount of each race genes percentage
@@wolfdog3226 that's fascinating
@@blackstar239 not true. You clearly have no idea about how melanin works. East Asians age better than South West Asians for a reason and S.W tend to be much darker than East Asians.
Isnt that because of sun exposure? The S.W has more summer days than then east do. Idk just a thought.
@@stargirl1589 diet, skin elasticity and lifestyle also. Which goes to show that just because someone skin is darker, it doesn't mean they will age better than someone with lighter (melanited) skin. The way we treat our bodies and our skin plays a huge factor in how we age. And I'm saying this as a black woman.
So happy to see there's a doctor as a consultant for this video. Speaks volumes of the quality of this channel

THANK YOU MELANIN đđŸââïžâïžđ
When you mentioned Asian melanin vs African melanin, is Asian all encompassing of east and south asians or just east Asians?
Exactly my question too. I know that black people are under represented in such studies, but no one seems to mention South Asian people, ie brown skinned people, at all.
East Asian, although South Asians more closely resemble Caucasians in most ways other than skin colour. Also, given that South Asia has quite literally every shade of skin colour living within it, I've only included the 3 largest racial groups and you'll have to make your own judgement as to what your tone is closest to.
[DATA EXPUNGED] lol imagine how I feel as someone who has african,asian AND european roots..
Actually South Asians donât develop Wrinkles until they reach their 50s. With better Health Habits and Good SkinCare they can minimize a lot of wrinkles. My Dark Skinned Grandmother and my Fair Skinned Mom are Good examples for Aging well.
@@spearmax2222 thank you so much. This is quite helpful :)
I donât understand why pale people tan. I think everyone skin color is beautiful and everyone looks best in their natural skin tone.
My husband looks burnt orange or copper, I love his complexion. Heâs naturally a bit dark though, from Mexico.
I'm really pale with really dark hair and eyes, including bushy eyebrows. A little colour looks much better with my features.
@Bastian 96 if you are born with that skintone it isn't "naturally tan" it's just your skin color.... A tan is specifically the shade you get when you go out in the sun. That's like saying anyone who is born with brown skin is tan, that's not how that works
I think it looks really good when I tan but Iâm not interested in looking like a wrinkly trashcan when Iâm old.
I am white and relatively pale normally, but in the summer I get pretty dark. It is not my goal, just a byproduct of living by the beach in a country that has a really long summer. A tan here has positive connotations of being outside all summer, having fun, being on vacation. It's not just about being darker, but also all these positive things that are connected to a tan (along with being able to wear some colours that don't go well with your normal skin tone, which some people really like ). That is why people usually tan in the summer, at least where I am from
I'm black but on the lighter side. I developed freckles when i was 10 ( thought it was dirt on my face at firstđ€Ł ). And I use to believe in the stupid myth of us not needing sunscreen. I got freaking torched one year while spending hours on the beachđ Sunscreen is definitely essential no matter how much melanin we haveđđŒ
You are on the "lighter side," meaning there is definitely admixture there.. if you were to do a DNA test. Keep in mind that those of us with dark skin, have the best UV protection because we have greater levels of melanin.
Eden Bright not true. There are Africans who are light . When I mean light like nc44-nc43 light and 100% African.

i knew an east asian with the milkiest milky white skin i've ever seen and she still covers up like there's no tomorrow... the sun is like a plague to her...
Monzo Lena thereâs no scientific peer reviewed research that suggests that lack of sunlight caused vit d deficiency when you can easily consume a rda through foods alone. That is such a tired argument Iâm not sure why people still believe it...
@Monzo Lena East asian lack gene which can effectively produce vitamine D. So it is better to consume more milk for east asian to get vitamine D.

The downside of dark skin is low absorbtion of vitamin D from the sun. So make sure to eat fish and eggs if that's your case - I'm surprised he didn't comment on it
@@1queijocas It's so interesting that you said "eat fish and eggs". I am Senegalese. We are extremely dark. We eat seafood all the time. Our national dish is a fish dish. Also, I eat eggs for breakfast almost every day. An egg sandwich is a standard breakfast in our culture. It makes me wonder if our ancestors used these daily practices because they somehow knew that it's beneficial to us or if we naturally love seafood because our bodies crave it for vitamin D.

@S no you don't understand, the sun isn't being blocked by clouds. We are too far north to have the sun shine full on us during some times of the year, for three months its constantly 'night', the only light comes from the stars and the aurora we frequently get.

Interesting video. I'm mixed black with Asian, and even whenever I tell people I'm 45 years old, they react with shock and surprise. I've been told I look nothing over 35. I have no wrinkles and my skin is very smooth, elastic and taut. My grandmother, even shortly before she died at the age of 83, also had smooth, elastic and taut skin with no wrinkles. I've observed however that my white friends have a different set of skin-challenges. Those in their 30's have wrinkles and those in their 40's already have sagging skin. The video's very correct though about discoloration in people with dark-skin. I've unfortunately been affected by this, especially areas around the neck and on my back. A lot of my black friends also have similar problems with skin-discoloration. This just goes to prove, you can never have it all...

Idea for the next video: How hairstyles affect facial aesthetics overall attractiveness!
This video instantly made me want to wear my sunscreen
Fun fact: People who are Caucasian evolved from black people as they traveled further into the colder/European regions. They where dying from lack of sun to there dark skin so over time (a long time) the human race that has only been black up to this point, started being born with a gene that made them white and more sufficient for the environment. They needed less melanin and had straight hair to warm them from the cold weather when prior most humans only had kinky hair to protect themselves from the sun. â„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïžâ„ïž
This really proves that the only race is the human race, the way we look should not be contradicted as it was beautifully crafted by nature to protect our species.

@Malika Brooks so basically Asians look young from 0 to 39 the time when it's best to look good but blacks look good when it ain't necessary to look good hmmmk (no hate or anything that's what I'm getting from what you're saying) and you can't use a black celebrity to represent all black people they are white celebrities that look very young for their age but we all now whites don't age well compared to black or asianđ
@@user-rs2ue1cz6m wtf
Ever thought about making a video about what actually changes as we age? You've covered in other videos the early stages of development but what about when we grow old? That would be a great video with your analysis in my opinion. Excellent job anyway, as usual, keep it up!
Perfect timing, QOVES, I just came from the beach sunburnt đ
same! lol
Iâm just pretending I know what heâs talking about đ
Same. His voice is really nice to hear.
He's saying darker skin tones provide more protection against the sun. Which, counters the "fair skin is beautiful" that the whiting creams tell people.
WRO ow, thanks for explaining and resuming! (:
Lol
My grandparents were ageless. (Us being Asian). My grandfather who was 98 y/o looked as if he was 60. (He also had a stroke). My grandmother who is 85 looks 60 as well. They were also out in the sun a lot when they were back in the homeland. We must have good genetics đ
Thank you so much for making this video and btw all your videos are amazing and well researched so I applaud you for that
These videos are so scientific and awesome!!
Haven't clicked faster than when you upload
i regret tanning every summer back when I was a high school fetus
Lol, why do you regret it, if you don't mind me asking?
@@crystalskyy9809 bc it probably made me age 5 years already lol
Try retinoids
Just keep using sun block,,, never too late
@@xoxofashiondiva u look 50 đđđ
Great video thanks as always for the content from England!
I'm a 21 year old Black woman and to others, I still look like a young teenager. I have light-medium brown skin (caramel complected) and hopefully, my melanin does me right in the long run! Although I do have dark spots and hyperpigmentation, along with eczema, I take care of my skin as best as possible!
21 isn't old
@@BitchChill I said I'm 21 years old, but I'm 22 now!
Girl u aint black but congrats!
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Can't stress this enough. I look way younger than I am thanks to moisturizing before bed & b4 applying makeup for the day. Apply moisturizer anywhere u wouldn't want wrinkles. & u don't need fancy creams, when I was broke I'd use even the cheapest 99Âą vitamin E cream, even Vaseline, as long as u keep your face/neck & anywhere else moisturized. Unfortunately looks seems to be everything in this world, take care!
i have oily ass skin so i dont need to do all that tbh
i wish they went over native skin tones
@Ayaan S Thanks! I was just curious bc I'm Mexican and my mother and brother both have darker complexions. I have never really found any commentary or articles focused around it and this was really helpful!
@@alyssakamille4426 I don't know if that's you as your profile picture, but you look reeeaaalllyyy pretty. Just wanted to let you know đ
I'm cherokee and I can say yes our skin is amazing we are a resilient group of people. Most of us have glowing skin that's tough. I always get asked if I'm wearing foundation cause my skin is smooth đ
Same im Filipino
@@ingi2914 ty! it is me lol
Ever since I was was little I didn't like looking tanned. So I rarely am out in the sun and when I am I usually have my sunscreen with me and wear something that protects my skin. And after having watched this video I feel even better about my choices in the last years haha
But what about olive skinned people or people from south Asia? How bad do they age?
Medium.
@@ebonynaomi1085 explain in depth
GZB 99 they probably have more protection than caucasion skintones but not as much as african skintones
I'm an olive skinned African (North African for reference)and im wondering the samw
noodle uwu we fall in the category brown skin, not dark skin but before that. Yes we have olive (brownish) skin but genetically bc live in Africa we have the same protection as those of lighter brown skinned people. In short, we age hella good. My momma still hasnât a single wrinkle.
Do Mediterranean skin types have any significant advantages in terms of UV protection or is it negligible?
i think mediterraneans must be somewhere similar to north africans in terms of melatonin because itâs similar sun exposure in those areas? I think it would be more similar to that than to other europeans that have a more pinkish time to their skin. So since there is so much sun exposure iâd say their melatonin protects them slightly more? Iâm not sure though, just a guess
Bastian 96 Northern Europeans have an advantage where they live though. The long and dark winters with very mild summers compared to other places. The light skin helps take in more vitamins.
Itâs a very interesting topic
Here to answer, we usually burn in 30 minutes averagely, scandinavians migh burn in 15. Remember that mediterranians are also whiteđ
@?? We're white
@?? Someone with white skin, you do know that our skin is white on winter and can get a little bit tanned on summer right?
I dont want to be picky, but being white does not mean you are caucasian. Most white people in the U.S. arenât descended from the Kaukasus region between Europe and Asia (touching Russia, Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) but from western and northern Europe. Basically caucasian is geographically inaccurate.
because caucasian now means all ethnicities of white (whether accurate or not)
Using caucasion to refer to white people is just a misnomer that's stuck around since the 1800s. If you want to be really picky using the categories "white"/"black" etc is pretty meaningless and unscientific.
I love all ur stuff!!
please make a vid on indian/middle eastern people and their skin
Hi! Can you talk about people's appeal because it seems that some people are deemed attractive depending on their facial and aura magnetism (regardless of their minimal flaws) than those people who have beautiful facial features?
Black skin is beautifully protected... I like it. Although I did burn and peel one summer in Afghanistan. I didn't know I could sun burn. My white friends had to tell me what was happening to me. LoL
Can we talk about how GORGEOUS all of the models were in this video? Like literally, EVERY. SINGLE. ONE đđ©đ„ș
Thank you for this video!
Hi Qoves Studios, would you consider doing a video on chemical peels?... Seems like that subject would be a great compliment to this video's subject.
Also Australia was colonised. Their indigenous population is black. Evolution didn't take in account of colonialism lol.
@Hello Again skin cancer is still a significant problem in Australia
@Hello Again yeah but increased animalq farming means more nitrous oxides which thins the ozone layer even more. This is particularly bad for Australia. Even if a few more people wear sunscreen, the skin cancer rates in Australia won't decrease by a whole lot.
@Hello Again lol no. The ozone layer let's in uv rays and we know that affects lighter skin individuals. Also there isn't much progress on the ozone layer. You honestly sound like an insecure white person who can't handle facts
@Hello Again no they didn't have a life expectancy of 40. You aren't that bright it seems. It was about 70 but there was a lot of child mortality so averages to 40. Also, even with sunscreen, people aren't actually going to apply the right amount. When sunscreen was invented l, the stats made it seem like it increases cancer rates but this was only because it made thwn feel bulletproof. Evolution made European skin lighter so it could absorb more vitamin d in areas with less sunlight
@@mushy470 europeans diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer have a 97% survival rate of 5 years up to stage 3 and stage 4 is 20% while for black people its 77% for 5 years and 1% at stage 4 take that at face value. skin cancer is very treatable and at this point its removal is like a dentist appointment. including skin cancer resistant gene mutations among europeans to fight against skin cancer.
I am ginger and have pale skin and MANY freckles, I would be interested in a video that talks about these type of characteristics: the combination of hair colour, skin tone and skin âmarksâ. Some find mixtures attractive, others find that when someone doesnât âmatchâ it throws them off.
Very informative, thank you.
A more scientific way of saying Black don't crack! Again, rarely winning the videos, so I'll take it.
8:56 that kind of censoring makes me really uneasy... Like... A whole bar going across the whole eye regional would be cool... But the little square on each eye... Looks creepy....
Reminds me of natsuki from ddlc
How about a video on cheek dimples and face shape? Interesting video !
It convinced me to use more sunscreen
More videos about asians (south-eastern, eastern, etc) please
We been knew the answer to this lmao. All i know if that my black mother is in her 50's and all my friends still think shes in her late 30's. probably early 30's if she didn't have slightly grey hair. GO MELANIN!!!
Well done and interesting video
Thts why they say black dont crack
@Zexy Turpa, Asians do have melanin. I think their term is Asian donât raisin.
Zexy Turpa everyone has some melanin except those with albinism
@@dewilew2137 did you even watch the video
I don't even need to watch this video to know the answer but still a good video.
so you dont know the answer then? lol
Age is a peculiar thing ppl really get mad about getting older. After the events of this year Iâm glad Iâm aging.
This makes me happy I put on my 50 spf every time I go out!
Ahhh yes, been hanging out for another episode
dear americans i have a question for you
why do you call americans who have european roots caucasian? their ancestors are not even from the caucasus
-sincerely, someone who lives in the caucasus and looks nothing like your caucasians
Hahahahahaha best comment lmaoo
Bc of a German guy who decided to call Europeans Caucasians. Iâm ethnically from the Caucasus mountains too! But Iâm Turkish
Thank you Iâm American but I know Caucasian doesnât always mean white lol
@@princessyarkor730 an intellectual
@Soso Lydia well with the same luck they couldve wanted to be called middle eastern, or west african doesnt mean they should be called that, they still would not look like or respresent the culture of those areas.
caucasus is known to hold the earliest signs of human development, we look like our ancestors did 2000 years ago
yes people are not represented by the land they come from but american descendants of europeans dont have any ties with the caucasus either and thats a fact
what im trying to understand is WHY they are called that if we physically do not look alike
Everyone should also put on Lotion daily. Moisturizing your skin keeps elasticity. Yes It's a little time consuming but worth it.
I think I have read before as well that Asian skin and white skin have different textures which also influences aging. Also I have heard that dermatologists often argue over whether or not white or Asian skin is the most acne prone. Is that true? I learned the hard way that certain ingredients in acne products react poorly on Asian skin vs white skin.
for celebrity analysis can you please do keira knightley or Lily rose depp?
Im 55, medium brown, dark brown in summer.. Im foundational Black American, and white folks are always surprised by my age..The always guess 38/45..years.not bad. Blacks usually guess 45/47..
Genetics is a crazy thing. Iâm dark blonde, white, 31yrs old. My skin looks great, no wrinkles! Love being in the sun, love getting a tan. White as a ghost in winter, super tan in summer. I only apply sunscreen when I know Ill have a lot of sun, for example when I go to the beach. I make sure I NEVER burn my skin though. It rarely happens. I do believe sunscreen helps. But moreover it is just having the right genetics I think. I do have yellow undertones which might help?
31 is hardly old love, wait till your 40 plus. Keep wearing sunscreen, if the women in your family have aged well naturally chances are high that you will too
@eu en Haha I understand 31 is still young, but most women my age are already all wrinkled up. So I'm positive for what my skin will look like when I'm 50.
@@stridery a lot of women who are 31 are overweight, drink a lot, smoke a lot, have poor diets in general, poor sleeping patterns, stressed out, on some kind of medication, so that would all contribute to why they start wrinkling up in their 20s and 30s.
That may be why, keep a healthy lifestyle and you can look younger forever and maybe discover immortality.
Yellow undertones helps here as it has more melanin than those with "pinky undertones" and white people are mostly pinky undertones and therefore they burn off like lobster
@@stridery yeesh. I noticed there are so many people trying to shoot others down in these comment sections. Good for you though!
your videos are very informative
