Cultural Insights On Beauty Standards For Chinese Girls
Chinese beauty standards are deeply influenced by traditional values and philosophy. They emphasize grace and refinement in both appearance and demeanor. There are some cultural beauty ideals for Chinese women that have been followed for decades. These standards have evolved over time to keep up with ever changing trends. Keep reading to know more!
a.) Traditional Beauty Standards
- Facial Features
- Historically, the Chinese associated beauty with fair, smooth (porcelain-type) skin. They believed fair skin was an indicator of nobility and a relaxed lifestyle. The emphasis on white skin tone is so much so that even today, the Chinese market is overflowing with whitening powders and other similar cosmetic products.
- The Chinese are very particular about facial shape. They consider the small, oval face with symmetrical features (melon seed face) to be ideal. This delicate shape symbolizes femininity and elegance.
- As for the eyes, the Chinese usually have simple monolid eyes. But they consider small eyes with double eyelids and long, curly lashes beautiful. Women love enhancing their eyes with soft eye makeup to achieve a natural but delicate aesthetic.
- They associated a well-defined nose with a sharp nose bridge with good fortune and positivity.
- Body Features
- Traditional Chinese beauty standards lean more toward slender, petite bodies. People with thin and small bodies are considered elegant, refined, and sophisticated.
- In distant history, Chinese beauty standards included small Lotus feet. It was a prominent symbol of high status. However, by the 20th century, this was not recognized that well.
- Thick, dark black hair has long been the symbol of femininity, beauty, and grace in Chinese culture. Many even link it with vitality.
b.) Societal Views On Beauty
In China, beauty is not simply an external factor but an intrinsic part of someone. Although their beauty ideals have evolved over time, their foundation is still deeply influenced by the Chinese philosophy of Confucianism. This philosophy emphasizes the significance of innate qualities over external features, suggesting that grace, modesty, self-restraint, and respect are core identifiers of beauty. Additionally, Confucianism celebrates soft and natural beauty over bold and prominent features.
This philosophy puts a lot of emphasis on inner beauty. According to Confucian thinking, a person must have intelligence, wisdom, humility, and good values to become a beautiful individual. These qualities are not seen as an add-on to the physical features but are considered as the essence of beauty. This balance between external and internal beauty creates a complete human being who becomes the epitome of beauty.
Confucianism and its impact on the standards of beauty in China are still relevant today. In contemporary Chinese society, traditional standards of inner beauty and modesty resonate with people despite the strong influence of Western beauty standards.
c.) The Evolution Of Beauty Standards
Although traditional standards and philosophies surrounding beauty still dominate the scene, there is a growing acceptance of diverse body types and an appreciation for natural beauty. Various movements have emerged that promote self-love and body positivity. People have started adopting healthy beauty habits, opting to have fit bodies over thin ones. In terms of makeup, the growing desire for natural beauty has popularized the minimal makeup trend characterized by muted colors and natural brows. Additionally, the growing emphasis on holistic beauty has led the Chinese population to adopt healthier lifestyles and effective skincare routines.
d.) Beauty Tips Inspired By Chinese Culture
The Chinese have long believed that beauty begins from within. They tend to care for their body, skin, and hair through natural methods, such as:
- Skincare And Herbal Remedies: Skincare is a prominent part of Chinese beauty routines. They popularized the use of natural ingredients like ginseng, pearl powder, and green tea in skincare rituals to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. These ingredients have proven benefits like moisturizing, firming, brightening, and revitalizing the skin.
- Facial Massage Habits: The Chinese beauty world is heavily influenced by face-lifting and massage techniques designed to maintain a youthful appearance and firm skin. Inspired by the gua sha and jade rolling massage techniques, they have developed a unique set of facial massage methods that are gaining immense popularity.
- Healthy Eating Habits: Chinese culture prioritizes healthy living over anything. They stick to a balanced diet and infuse healthy habits like exercising and meditation to improve their overall well-being. They believe healthy living is the starting point of becoming beautiful. Among some popular eating habits, a prominent one is drinking herbal teas, like Lotus seed or Chrysanthemum, valued for their calming and soothing benefits. Additionally, the Chinese stress the importance of balancing hot and cold foods to maintain internal harmony. Their diet is carefully planned, including foods rich in nutrients like leafy vegetables and fruits. These foods not only improve general health but also boost skin health.
