Why I stopped using beauty filters · The Spirit Nomad: Spiritual Awakening + Life Purpose

• 0:00
  Ever since I joined Tick-Tock, I have been loving playing around
• 0:04
  with different beautiful daughters but recently I've
• 0:07
  changed my mind on that and I no longer use them.
• 0:10
  And today I will share three reasons why a little disclaimer
• 0:14
  is that I completely respect your decision whether you want
• 0:18
  to use beautiful Turtle, not and I might change my opinion on
• 0:21
  this and the future, so no judgment.
• 0:24
  And to clarify what I mean with you to filters, I'm not talking
• 0:28
  about, remember those Like Snapchat days where you like you
• 0:32
  would turn into a dog or you know, like a flower crown.
• 0:36
  Like that's all fun and games. I'm talking about these filters.
• 0:40
  That makes your lip bigger lips. Bigger, your eyes bigger, maybe
• 0:44
  different color, hair, different color, even met my making more
• 0:48
  tan or more white reason. Number one, why I stopped using
• 0:52
  you to filters is because I think it sets unrealistic beauty
• 0:56
  standards, the filters are becoming more and more.
• 1:00
  Dream. Like everybody's just starting
• 1:03
  to look like Barbie dolls now. And what we find beautiful is
• 1:07
  determined by the outside world. If you look in normal, Hollywood
• 1:11
  movies, girls, all have shaved legs.
• 1:15
  So now we're considered unclean. If we don't want to shave our
• 1:19
  legs, in the Western World, the models tend to be thin and
• 1:23
  tanned as so. That's the beauty standard here.
• 1:26
  What I fear with these beautiful ters becoming more and more
• 1:29
  Stream, is that, that would become the new standards and
• 1:33
  when we leave The Tick, Tock, or the Instagram app, and go out in
• 1:37
  the real world, we're not as attracted to real people.
• 1:42
  So I think this is going to lead to depression low low
• 1:46
  self-esteem people getting risky, plastic surgeries, risky
• 1:51
  fillers and I think many people would simply not even leave
• 1:54
  their house because they don't want to show the unfiltered
• 1:58
  version of themselves because they're So used to seeing how
• 2:01
  they look like with these filters on on those platforms.
• 2:04
  So, they'd rather stay in the mecca, verse that, the
• 2:07
  Instagram, The Tick Tock just like with makeup now.
• 2:11
  How if you don't wear makeup, you can get comments.
• 2:14
  Like, oh you look tired, has something happened or like, oh,
• 2:18
  are you sick? I feel like he would be that.
• 2:21
  But now now makeup is the new no makeup, if that makes sense.
• 2:26
  So, people would just expect people to look like this.
• 2:29
  Like filtered Barbie dolls because that's what we see on
• 2:32
  social media. Now, reason number two, why I
• 2:34
  stopped using me to filters East because I believe this is a
• 2:38
  gateway into the method verse. So what is the matter verse?
• 2:42
  According to Wikipedia the method verse is a hypothetical
• 2:46
  iteration of the internet as a single Universal and immersive
• 2:50
  virtual world. That is facilitated by the use
• 2:53
  of virtual reality and augmented reality headsets.
• 2:57
  And if you think this is just fiction and will not happen.
• 3:00
  Then I'm sorry to inform you that this is already happening.
• 3:03
  As you know, Facebook has changed his name to Metta and
• 3:07
  they have this whole method versus setup, you can buy
• 3:10
  properties for millions of US dollars.
• 3:13
  If you log into your Facebook, Instagram account, you can pick
• 3:16
  your avatar. And I feel like these filters
• 3:19
  that are becoming more and more extreme is the Gateway.
• 3:22
  It's one step away from you looking like an avatar but I
• 3:27
  don't want to be an avatar personally.
• 3:29
  I I want my wrinkles to show my imperfections.
• 3:33
  I want to be real, I like the real world.
• 3:36
  The third reason why I stopped using video filters is because I
• 3:40
  want to embrace my authentic self.
• 3:43
  I have struggled with my self-esteem, my whole life.
• 3:47
  But since I came into my late 20s and our 30s, I've started to
• 3:53
  become more happy with my imperfections.
• 3:56
  It's okay that I have a bit of a crooked nose, or I don't have
• 3:59
  the The cups but it's our unique features that make us beautiful.
• 4:05
  I think it would be really a weird and creepy if we all look
• 4:09
  the same it's just like walking Barbies and Ken's.
• 4:12
  That would just not be very nice or even attractive.
• 4:16
  Now, you might be asking Julia. What about makeup?
• 4:19
  I can see that you're wearing makeup Now, isn't this kind of
• 4:21
  the same thing? It's a filter.
• 4:23
  And that was my initial response.
• 4:25
  But I've changed my opinion about that because makeup is An
• 4:30
  artistic expression and it's used by you, you know, USA human
• 4:35
  while while these filters are created by AI, so it's not by a
• 4:40
  human. However, I will say that there
• 4:42
  are some similarities and I try to go as natural as possible.
• 4:47
  Just a little bit of eye makeup and blush.
• 4:50
  The don't want to be hiding behind like a makeup wall was
• 4:54
  easy to do when you're insecure about yourself and most often, I
• 4:58
  will just no more makeup at all. Call.
• 5:00
