Physical beauty is a tremendously important attribute to have as a woman in China. It is important when being evaluated for your potential worth before having accomplished anything, and also for being evaluated as more important than accomplishments or actions that have been already performed or done. Cosmetics play a key role in the beautification of women in China, and Chinese women are proud of their skill in using cosmetics to change their appearances. Coupled with specific behaviors and mannerisms, Chinese women use cosmetics to look younger: eyes are enhanced to appear larger (both outside the eye and within), skin is made smoother, lips are made to pucker and pout. The ideal of youth is attractive to everyone and is widely used as a commercial incentive.

Using youth as a standard of beauty has then raised the qualifications of being beautiful to involve younger and younger people, as recently seen with Hoang Bao Tran Le. As the standard of beauty becomes younger, the importance of one’s skill in applying cosmetics to achieve the semblance of youth has ultimately led to this point: a young-looking “twelve year-old” child applies make-up that mature women put on in order to look younger.

From Mop:

Have you ever seen a twelve year-old girl wearing make-up that has been professionally applied? Truly very shocking!

Only until you’ve sen these photographs will you dare to believe that a 12-year-old girl could possess such divine power~~!

An Elva Hsiao-like diamond candied visage~~!

Indeed, a display of professional skill~~! It is undeniable~~!

No matter what, she is still just a primary school student, right? So everyone don’t get too excited~~!

After all, she is still just a little child~~~!

Only thing is, I am a bit concerned for her skin in the future~~~!

I’m going to try asking you guys a question: let’s say all day your child went out with make-up like this, what would you do? Leaving aside for the moment the issue of whether or not the cosmetics are genuine, and even if they were, one can imagine that skin that has been messing around with makeup since the age of 12 would probably end up looking like 40 by the age of 25~~! I hope God will bless her!

These days, there are no more ugly girls in the world [because of their makeup skills]~~~~~~~~~~~

烟沐沐:

Evildoer

色猫：喵喵喵:

Such a cute little girl, I still don’t know how to apply make-up~

海猫妖妖:

Uh… with cosmetics there are no ugly women.

咖啡加盐1989:

Oh my, from now on, it is impossible to find natural beauties anymore. It’s such a pity I just broke up with one yesterday…

我就是独哥:

Such a young age and already so flirty/precocious… there are too many flirty cunts these days.

爱55谁谁:

Beauties are made this way. Her family is probably involved in cosmetology or cosmetics, [so] it’s hereditary [meaning she is using makeup at a young age because of family environment/influence]. Envy envy hate!

呃怪阿姨:

Goddess

喵喵喵我叫叫叫:

Poor child.

zzj52:

Monsters are getting younger and younger.

shanzhule:

Is she going to [look] old by the time she is middle-aged?

Baby无齿Hello:

Is this what passes for a beauty/beautiful girl?

独爱弟弟:

In the eighth picture, her armpit still has a hair in it; messy….

叫春的小猫咪:

Yeah, and it’s exceedingly long! Which means down there is also…

小泉州大城市:

Kids with professional make-up??? Fuck

葒袖添稥:

OMG, I’m 23-years-old this year and I still can’t put on make-up as well as her!!!

暴躁兔子:

12-years-old… I better just pass by, and not comment.

diffo:

Goddess

泡泡的兔兔:

It’s a good thing, she can be a cosmetician in the future, [she’s] really talented.

渡泊:

What a tragedy…

ivyxu85:

Kids~~~~~~~~

故意爱你:

Disgusting

雨落繁花尽:

Sigh, I was wondering how there are so many beauties on the internet [meaning they are all created from makeup, and also Photoshop]

抹杀你的纯:

I feel that this post isn’t real because we never get to see the little girl apply the make-up with her own hand, and there are no wider shots [photos taken from further away]. They are all close-ups! These pictures don’t show the truth!

」ΟЖЁΓ:

Too cute, the type I like.

子不语灬:

Fei zhu liu influence is tremendous..

菲朵:

I don’t know how to put on make-up.

绿珠子:

So fashionable~~~

So tender.

handsomesun:

Monster flower doll. [a reference to “Toire no Hanako-san“, a Japanese manga and horror movie series that was retitled “School Mystery” in English in which a mysterious doll with supernatural powers is featured]

天使精闭眼:

No matter how much make-up you use, the childlike-ness of your face cannot be hidden. Children’s skin is normally very tender/delicate. If you start using makeup products too early, you won’t be able to leave the house in the future [because you will look too ugly due to long-term effects on skin]. Certain things are reserved for certain ages in one’s life. Child, are you not afraid of your skin prematurely aging?

深圳油条:

Once she reaches 20 years of age, will she still be able to show her face without wearing makeup?

北上抗日的英雄豪杰:

Only 12-years-old and she already has small wrinkles under her eyes….

一个好孩子_ok:

Ai!!! Just two days ago I was talking with my friend wondering how come there are more and more beautiful girls these days, whereas there haven’t been an increase in handsome guys. Apparently this is the reason why there are more beautiful girls!!!

Is 12-years-old too young to begin using makeup and cosmetic products?
