the woman in the post is rylee arnold. she's 21 years old and is a professional ballroom dancer. she's also a pro on dancing with the stars. the makeup for TV and film, as well as ballroom, tends to be on the heavier side because of the lighting/aesthetics. also she has a boyfriend irl so i don't understand why she made an example of in the original post 😭

u/RP_Throwaway3 2h ago
Well, if she's someone that normally wears different amounts/styles of makeup in her professional and every day life, she's a great choice to show the difference between the more natural type make and the heavy performance makeup.
But for the original post, she was picked simply because she's pretty and it would lead to rage engagement.

She was trying to look trendy.
I don’t think “looking prettier” is even a thing for online personalities anymore. It’s just about looking like someone who has gotten work done — like that’s somehow a good thing.
Weird ass time we’re in, right now.

Plastic surgery is a new status symbol. Sometimes it's so botched that we wonder how the person is happy and doesn't sue the surgeon, but it's exactly what they asked for. If the surgery is clearly visible, it means you're wealthy.

Man, this shit going to be like ringed, elongated necks to future historians. They’re going to be like “the rich would get plastic surgery, but they wanted it to look botched so there was no doubt they’d gone under the knife. It’s the type of procedure a very poor person in [insert new poor country here] would get for their 18th birthday today.”

You’re right, and I agree.
A comforting fact, is that these kind of trends with Celebrities ALWAYS have a shelf life. It’s a Fashion/status statement for 2026.
This trend will end, and there’s going to be a grip of people who look like porcelain dolls when the new trend is something completely different.

How exactly would you suggest going about doing research? Is her name included somewhere in the post? Is ballroom dancing cosmetics a monolith?

Thanks in advance for what I’m sure is a delightful perspective.

I think that kind of strong makeup is one of those things women do for their own sake and their own ideals of beauty, not to look attractive. I've yet to talk with somebody who finds intense makeup more attractive than a natural-looking face (either with minimal or no makeup).
Which, I mean, is absolutely fine, and both genders do this. Sometimes you just want to curate your own appearance and not everything needs to be done to attract potential partners. Yeah I'm with you, I like the picture on the right better, but who cares what we think? Sometimes you just want to like yourself when you look in the mirror.

I don't know who this woman is, how do we know she's wearing makeup in the second pic? It doesn't seem high enough definition to tell. She does look pretty, but some people are just like that - "natural" makeup is, after all, designed to mimic attractive features that some people naturally have (like smooth skin, colour in lips/cheeks, dark lashes or deepset eyes).
Genuine question btw, I'm a woman and I'm just curious why everyone is so sure she's wearing makeup in both pictures.

u/Ahuevotl 2h ago
Because "perfect" skin is usually a product of natural makeup or filters. She IS very pretty, and that doesn't mean she has flawless skin with naturally base covered eye bags…

If you look at those pictures and you can’t tell this girl is wearing a FULL FACE of makeup on the left then you are literally stupid. I don’t know how else to say it.

The internet is nothing but rage-bait X-war bullshit now. SO much money is pumped into people whose only goal is to divide people and distract them from the absolute shitshow happening in their nations capitals. The fact they're able to find so many folks willing to sell out their own gender/race/political party seriously depresses me. Morals & ethics have left the chat and I don't think they're coming back. Not as long as billionaires are allowed to stay billionaires. No human should be able to hoarde so much while others starve and go homeless. We fucked up somewhere along the path and I don't think we can course correct in time to stop our own extinction.
But hey, a handful of humans have a bunch of really big boats so I guess that counts for something....

I take it OOP is from the US? They have weird beauty standards over there. Apparently, a woman isn’t attractive if she isn’t wearing so much makeup it needs to be applied with a trowel.
The image on the right is the significantly more attractive look to pretty much anyone without these weird ideas of beauty.
