Pretty Privilege Is KILLING US (fillers, hip dips, ozempic etc.)

In this video essay, we dive deep into the concept of 'pretty privilege' within Gen Z and explore how beauty standards have evolved from the eighties to today. We discuss how social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok have influenced these ideals, the rise of cosmetic procedures like lip fillers and Botox, and the new insecurities faced by women, such as the obsession with achieving a perfect hourglass figure. From Kate Moss's iconic 'nothing tastes as good as skinny feels' quote to today’s hyper-perfection culture, we uncover the pressures and challenges of meeting ever-changing beauty standards. *Keywords: pretty privilege, Gen Z beauty standards, beauty evolution, cosmetic procedures, lip filler trends, Botox in Gen Z, hip dips insecurity, Instagram beauty, TikTok trends, beauty culture, social media influence, Kate Moss skinny, beauty standards history, body image 2024, influencer beauty impact, modern beauty ideals, Ozempic, filler, lip filler, cheek filler, Botox, hip
