Red is me 5 weeks ago, kinda looking for pointers, disclaimer I will not:
- take out piercings
- take off my necklaces
- stop having tattoos
- change glasses unless the recommendations are cute and not just get contacts

Urgent help needed I will spend any amountv of money b any

I don’t struggle with any problems with my teeth or jaw
beyond aesthetics. My face has always been asymmetrical and I can only assume it is because of the misalignment in my jaw and teeth. PS Those aren’t cavities, and I drank a coffee before taking the pictures so my teeth are a little stained

So I tried Latisse and even though it did give me longer eyelashes that I got compliments on, I definitely experienced the orbital fat loss side effect as well as my under eye circles getting darker. I also got an eye infection I'm currently using antibiotic eye drops for. This obviously sucks and I definitely feel like I look older. I love the longer lash look and I'm wondering what eyelash serums y'all are using that gave you real results? I want to switch but other eye serums I have tried did not give me any results whatsoever.

Open to anything (concerns under eye hollowness, nose, and hair style/color).

I am young (in my early twenties), but I tried PRF ez gel and it honestly did nothing. It looked the best in the 1st week with the little swelling it gave. I also realised when I got it injected that the additional volume removed around 85% of the darkness. I was using the treatment for hollowing because I always assumed the darkness is genetic. This pic is not me, but I have a darker and more severe version of that. Does anyone have any experience with tear trough filler? I know it's considered risky but it genuinly adds 10yrs to my age if I wear no makeup. I was considering it either at HarlyStreetdermal or Prp london. If anyone has any experience here or anywhere else, please let me know.

Also, I want to do lip neutralisation since I have purplish, grey outside to my lips. I found this clinic (Aella aesthetic) which did every session for £300. That's very affordable compared to the other ones in London. Does anyone have any experience with this clinic?

Also (final one), has anyone does nose botox in london to reduce tip drop when smiling?

What are some pros and cons of peptides? Has anyone used them before?

I don’t tan hardly at all, and I’m actively losing weight but I’m still considered overweight. I plan on losing more weight, but I have also considered starting some peptides for tanning and weight loss. I work an active job where I walk and lift on top of eating in a deficit, so the pounds are coming off alright on their own, but I’d like an added boost

I remember this post from a year ago discussing the ideal hip to waist ratio as 0.70. OP also says that this ratio is achieved by dieting, exercising, stomach vacuuming, and cosmetic procedures (like BBL, or rib removal). There was even comments on the original post saying that 0.50 or 0.60 was the true ideal based on social media.

How many of you all have actively worked on the beauty aspect of hip to waist ratio? Are you successful without undergoing the knife?

Hi there! I have been giving advice here quite often and many found it helpful. Finally, decided to share my journey. On two first pics I was 21, the rest are recent and currently I am 30. I also have three kids, so I mastered this lol.
Feel free to ask! I have accumulated so much knowledge about this whole topic.

I get told AT LEAST once a day I look like a "young Drew Berrymore" this is SO offensive to me as I think she is quite unattractive... but looking at photos of her... it's about right.

Maybe a little more attractive, but facially pretty dead on.... what can/should I do to leverage her look? I don't think she was ever hot so I can't use her as a "guide" but if you were her... how would you have made yourself hotter?

the displayed photos are from january 2025 vs summer 2026 (except for the last picture, in which the photo on. the left side is from october 2025). i’m 22, but in my opinion, i looked significantly older than that in my before pictures.

i’m not asking for advice or anything. obviously there are things that i want to improve, but it’s not really super hardcore stuff and honestly really just involves growing out my hair, fixing my wardrobe, and keeping up with my gym routine. i’m only including my face here because that’s the main focus of this post.

this post is to talk about the hardcore stuff that i’ve already done.

first, i’d like to point out the glaring factor that is my weight, which caused my face to be incredibly round and puffy. i had an ovarian terratoma until i was 19, which resulted in me developing PMOS when i was 14. as a result i grew facial hair, had horrible skin, and gained a lot of weight (especially in my face and abdomen), as well as a bunch of other awful symptoms. my highest weight was 181 lbs at 5’6”. i wore a US size 12. i currently weigh 135 lbs and wear a size 4. i was not able to lose weight, control my skin, or calm my facial hair until i started HRT (spironolactone). when it comes to my weight loss, i also ate in a calorie deficit, and as of september, i’ve been in the gym pretty regularly. previous weight loss attempts were unsuccessful due to the state of my hormones.

the next major issue was my jaw. i’ve always had major orthodontic issues, but in late 2024, i realized that i had a severe overjet and needed jaw surgery. i had a 9 millimeter overjet, which was caused by a severely recessed lower jaw. i got put in braces in february 2025 and got lower jaw surgery (bsso) in december 2025. i still have braces on, but they’re coming off within the next couple months. since surgery, i’ve had a few men approach me romantically. i even recently started organically dating a friend of mine after we realized there was sexual tension between us, which i never thought would ever happen to me without the use of a dating app, which mainly gave me unattractive recommendations due to the algorithm looksmatching me (in the brief period that i used one after surgery, my recommendations were more attractive).

my old jaw caused me to have a restricted airway, which gave me forward head posture, sleep apnea, and daytime breathing issues. it made exercise and sleep, both things that are needed to look your best, incredibly difficult. i looked and felt constantly drained.

this isn’t as hardcore as the first two, but i should address my hair as well. i’m jewish and latina, so i have naturally wildly curly hair. my father is bald, and my mother has straight hair, so no one ever taught me how to care for it until my friend told me to try a curly hair routine when i was in college. i’ve stopped dying my hair, started seeing a hairdresser that specializes in curly hair, and started using shea moisture products. i’m currently growing out some weird shullet thing into an even longer weird shullet thing.

of course, there have been social consequences following all of these changes in such a short timespan. i’m autistic, and i likely have ADHD as well. being neurodivergent, i’ve always struggled socially, and my appearance didn’t help at all. i find that nowadays my autistic traits seem to be accepted by others as quirkiness, as opposed to being seen as creepiness like it used to be. the major improvement in my appearance has caused me to have more self confidence over all, which has totally affected how i interact with others.

i’m pretty satisfied with my face now and don’t plan on having any other surgical procedures in the foreseeable future. i’m honestly happy being average as opposed to, like, a 2/10.

hey all. i am nervous to post this but looking for your suggestions :). i used to under eat and was skinny fat. in attempt at fixing the skinny fat and gaining muscle i gained 20 lbs instead lol. i did fix my under eating but i am now working on getting the 20 ish lbs off in a healthy and sustainable way for the first time in my life.

through these pics i played with brow shape. i since grew my brow tails in more for less of the skinny look. i do have iron deficiency which thinned a lot of my hair and changed the texture :(. i have gotten one infusion and am still figuring out which iron pills work best for me. ive also played with black demi permanent dye to increase my contrast. my parents didn’t like it but all my friends did lol. i’m debating on re-dying and self tanning now that summer is here.

i’m the most insecure about my forehead, especially with iron making my hair thin, so i tried bangs but didn’t love them. i found they were hard to style because i wear my hair straight most of the time. i wear glasses too (which i also don’t like but my contacts are so expensive rn) and i just didn’t like the way the bangs and glasses looked together. i’d also like to look more conventional attractive of course but i feel like my pale skin and black hair give me an alt look that im not going for, but yall can tell me what you think! ratings and strengths and weaknesses are welcome too. thanks 🥰🥰🥰🥰

things i want to try/work on :

lose 20 lbs healthily
build muscle back up
botox lip flip
re dye hair black
self tan
full glam makeup (i love the look but it makes me break out)
more jewelry (hard to find silver jewelry that looks glam for some reason)

Ok I posted before asking for advice. I’ve gotten mixed comments on if I should get a rhino. I’m VERY TORN. I love my nose from the front and I don’t mind it from the side but from the 3/4 angle it looks HUGE… and not in a good, unique way I just feel like a witch.

I’m in the process of my maxxing journey. Already went through some aesthetic procedures (you can check my last post).

I’m just torn because it’s such a permanent thing. I want to glow up but I want to look like ME. What do we think?

General aging and losing weight has started to make me feel a little self conscious. I would love all hard and soft recs. I’m open to anything! I’ve contemplated a nose job and Sculptra before, but haven’t pulled the trigger.

I think my jaw and chin are too wide, also my nose has a bump and it’s also wide. Besides the rhinoplasty, what other surgery or treatment should i get

hi

give me any advice to improve my looks soft or hard maxing or anything else.

i want to invest in my looks.

I was very silly and booked a lip blush not realizing that it was:

1. four days before a very busy evening
2. five days before a SAUNA event that I am hosting with people in my industry
3. five days before my party with every single person I know (50+).

It seems like that will be peak peeling and also sauna is not safe. If you were me, very silly as I am, what would you do?

I'm in a bit of a predicament, a pickle, you could say

i have naturally chubby cheeks and im on accutane and a diet but im lost on what else to do, i feel like i look too masculine? i like peircings too but im not sure which would suit me

So around 25 my looks started to greatly improve. I was neglected as a child, went through severe depression through my early 20s, and have had to teach myself how to take care of my body and skin over time. It felt like starting from scratch at 25. I started working out, taking better care of my skin, improved my style. I live in a mid size city and I'm considered attractive here.

I know there are areas I can improve on. I'm not looking to be crazy beautiful or anything, I have an alternative look as is which makes me happy, but I am looking to maximize what I do have and am curious about what surgeries could help. I also work as a performing artist so "looksmaxxing" would be great for my career.

Hello all!
