Woman Photoshops Her Face In 25 Countries To Compare Their Beauty Standards

U.S.-based journalist and photographer Esther Honig came up with an interesting photo project that answers a difficult question in an ingenious way – how can we compare standards of women’s beauty world-wide?

Honig’s solution was brilliantly simple: she sent a portrait photo of herself to freelance Photoshoppers in countries around the world with one request – to make her “beautiful.” Each Photoshopper, be they a professional or an amateur, took their own spin on the assignment, giving Honig (and us) a glimpse at what at least one person in each of these countries considers to be beautiful. Honig’s face subtly (and sometimes not so subtly) shifts, changing form and color as it travels around the world.

    Well, one thing is very clear… Americans need to work on their Photoshop skills

  3. Only ORIGINAL PHOTO looks legit! Lol

  4. I’m sorry but a lot of these to me are very inaccurate. Even I could have done a better job than some of these….

    Vietnam and Israel are natural. The most are really horrible. But that´s my opinion. And I´m also a photographer from Germany living in Argentinia. :)
