Hi everyone, I couldn't help to notice that there are lots of young girls in Copenhagen, young adults and teenagers with lots of make up. I also noticed there are lots of young women with lip fillers. Coming from Stockholm, I expected to find a more natural type of beauty in and less pressure on women's aesthetics. Even busses have plastic surgery advertised!

My Danish teacher told me it is common to do beauty tweaks, but women are not open to talk about it, to make it look as if everything is natural. This adds extra pressure and unrealistic standards on young women.

I am worried about having my daughter (16) facing a lot of during the 3 years we will be living here Do you think this is mostly due to social media? I noticed 35+ women do not seem to get affected by these trends.

Do you think this is happening in Denmark due to social media?
