  • Female Chinese beauty standards have become a well-known feature of Chinese culture. A 2018 survey conducted by the Great British Academy of Aesthetic Medicine concluded that Chinese beauty culture prioritizes an oval face shape, pointed, narrow chin, plump lips, well defined Cupid's bows, and obtuse jaw angle. The importance of feminine beauty in China has been deeply ingrained into the culture: historically, a woman's livelihood was often determined by her ability to find an eligible husband, a feat aided by fitting into the cultural ideals of beauty. Chinese women tend to utilize plastic surgery to enhance their ethnic features, and mirror some physical traits associated with western beauty. Values of dark, thick, and shiny hair allude to proper hygiene rituals and overall health and wellness. Similarly, pale, ivory skin, and a slim body figure have historical implications as being a physical representation of wealth and affluence. Though not as much an indicator of wealth, these values transcribed to both modern day Chinese and Western culture and continue to represent ideal beauty. A relatively new ideal ingrained into Chinese culture consists of the notion of having a double eyelid, a common feature of Western women. The term double eyelid refers to the prominent crease found on some people's eyelid and contradicts the more ethnic mono eyelid feature common to Chinese women. This look can be achieved temporarily by using specific cosmetic products such as tape or glue. A permanent option is to undergo a procedure titled blepharoplasty, which utilizes cosmetic surgery to reshape the eyelid. (en)
