To be fair the difference between tan and pale skin for East Asians (and some SEAs) is a distinct marker between western-born and international students/FOBs

This is EXACTLY my problem I end up just looking like a different person depending on the season or continent 😅

kpop idol douyin makeup look for the winter. sabrina carpenter makeup look for the summer

Totally true for the Europe thing. I live there. I'm the type who spends lots of time creating unique outfits and I take lots of inspiration from korean and japanese fashion. Well I tend to get glances a lot in the street. I went to visit Japan and South Korean a month ago, and I actually felt underdressed 😅 it was so refreshing to see everyone wearing such cute outfits tho

Idk why but you look literally gorgeous in that hairstyle

For me, as a SE Asian, I love being tan a bit more than pale but sometimes I go for pale too. I understand the struggle. 🇵🇭🇫🇷❤️

Omg me to girl I understand your struggles😭

Off topic but that capybara is so cute😭💗

Same! And even with dressing up, or social culture, its like who do I listen to? Complete opposites 😭😭✋

Capybara ❤

the "cant" was so satisfying

You look beautiful ❤️ in either way 🎉

I'm German but still pretty pale. I have the same problem because my grandmother tell me every time that I would look prettier with a tan.😢

SAME WITH ME GURL! I'm half Thai and British and I'm naturally a very pale person likeeee I'm giving casper the ghost.. And I'm currently living in the uk and. I get so jealous of seeing people with tanned skin and i really want that but at the same time I wanna embrace my skintone... it's really werid but i totally get u!!

YESS OMG I used to want to be tan but now I actually want to be paler even though I’m alr somewhat pale

THE CAPYBARA PLUSH❤ THAT WAS LITTERALY THE FIRST THING I SAW IN THIS VIDEO

Bangladeshi girl piz piz piz piz 🙏🙏❤

as a western-born southeast asian, i used to try to stay pale and would spend so much energy to avoid the sun during summer. now i don’t care and just let my body tan if im in the sun. i naturally tan when exposed to the sun and im honestly tired and too sweaty to cover up all the time

Omg the capybara plush I got one too but Mine looks funkier

Im.half chinese ill.only use temp tan and bronzer on soem.days but it has to be a statement thing for me like ineed some heavy teal blueissh eyeliner on the bottom remindsme of the ocean and my skin is the warm sando. The beach when i use bronzer but msor of the time i want to be pale

im mixed and ngl i think i burn and brown more in tenerife than i do in malaysia, but that’s probably because the heat there is worse and its unbearable to be in the sun sometimes

Tan

this is my struggles right now 😂😂😂 I can shape shifting

"americans dressing comfortable" VS "europens dressing comfortable"

Cute

Its a struggle for me as an 🇩🇪🇮🇹🇫🇷 everytime I see so much beautiful asians 🥹

Omg!!! You're so pretty girl you look like IVE Wonyoung🥰💖

... Bloody hell... Admittedly, its like that in the Philippines too... I tried to do like how Westerners style in shows like Euphoria/ Harajuku style/ mash-up of Vivienne Westwood-Dior with biker jacket and you know what I got? "Are you going on a date?" "You look Korean" Me: "Guys, its just for Sunday Mass and this is how I see myself!"

pls do India

As a German- Jamaican who grew up with anime, visual kei, k-pop and 90s RnB and hip hop. This is ringing so true 😅😂💜

I love kbeauty but i always add bronzer

I dunno about the casual dress thing is overdressed... I'm Chinese born in UK, I walk to the local shops in my pajamas and slippers.

This is EXACTLY my problem

Pale

Love the capybara❤

"Casul dressing in Asia is overdressed in Europe" ... Correction "South East Asia" Not all Asians dressed like this on casual days (I'm also Asian)

I have trouble which style I want 😂😅

So true 😂

Never ever eveerrrr be basic for NOBODY . Honey , shine bright, let them burrrrnnnnnn - a wise woman

There are two questions to answer. Are you aiming to please a particular demographic (including 'you') and which culture do you mostly live in? The convention for beauty is determined by the local culture so you need to establish what that is and whether you are aiming to meet or challenge those standards.

Since my childhood, I do not know those options.

This but I'm Hawaiian chinese! Do I be pale and doyin or go with my family tan and pacific islander style!!

I want to wear cute things in europe but it's weird when everyone stares, if this is a thing in asia then that's cool

Same for me too

I can’t be that pale unfortunately… so I gotta dress western no matter what 😭

Same😭

I'm not Asian but being pale is just healthier for my skin, so I gladly stay pale.

Same

how do i make my face paler? my body is white but my face is more pink... does weight loss help?

I guess pale? Since i wssume its easier to tan afterwards, than be tan and try reverting to pale

As a black person atleast u have the option to be pale or tan lol

As a European i hate tan and the eu style and i get so much negative attention for it from people😂

And asian eyebrows or American feather eyebrows?

First be pale and Korean style and then tan by the sun and like European style.😂😂 Because you can always tan if ur pale

As a disabled goth girl who tans at the drop of a hat, this also applies to me LOL 🎀 Love you doll, your beauty tips are the best whether you’re feeling idol pale or ganguro 🌸💕

Well again asia isn't just south korea, china and japan

Idk what part Europe you have been but that's totally false as European myself Balkan countries are totally glam even though if you're gonna grab a coffee

You’re western born??
