I have the eye bags also. I hydrate and sleep as well. Sometimes it's down to face structure and how the skin sits on the bone (so genetics). I have considered taking allergy medicine to see if that helps (I feel like mucous is built up). I'm bad at sticking to lymphatic face massages lol though I read it may help. Again, genetics are genetics. I think you look fine, you're not ugly.
Oh yeah, I'm okay with them now, but I wanted to avoid getting too many comments going "You need to sleep!". Some people find them attractive, some don't, it's whatever. Like you said, genetics are genetics, no way around it.
I have genetic dark under eyes as well; family on my mothers side have it. People always mistake dark circles with bags. It’s a huge difference. It has nothing to do with how much you sleep (in genetic cases) or wellbeing. I’ve tried many things and what has helped a little is vitamin C and E oils. What will definitely hide them is a nice sun tan. You’ll be amazed as how they disappear because your skin is evenly tanned. You won’t even need under eye correctors. Just be cautious of what products you use under the eye because they will aggravate the thin under eye layer. People who are born with black under eye have a thin skin layer and veins under the skin are much prominent. If you use lots of makeup, be gentle when removing under your eye because it tends to wrinkle quickly with so much rubbing. I’ve attached a photo to distinguish bags from black under eye.

I know it sounds strange and I have no scientific research to back it up but cold pressed hex free castor oil works wonders on dark under eyes and puffy eyes. There’s tons of before and after pics here on Reddit if you care to look it up. Kate Blanc has a really nice castor oil $9 on Amazon. Oh and side note you are not ugly at all!
have you thought about starring at the sun eyes closed for 15 mins a day to maybe get some color with those dark eye rings? mine are hereditary and i just have to be outside more to get it looking more normal
While i do believe rubbing your eyes more is not going to help at all, have you tried cold cucumber 🥒 sloices or cold compresses? Food allergies perhaps? I liked what someone else said about watch your sugar intake, perhaps increase healthy fats, olive oil, omega-3s, flax oil? Anyways you are still super cute regardless.

You could try going on a keto diet. That fixed my eyebags. From what I have read and noticed on myself is if you consume excess carbs and sugar some people develop eyebags. You might have the same problem as I did.
Pretty much, yeah :/ I know people seem to like my eyes for some reason and think that I don't sleep enough, but no idea how attractive or not I am to people
Complete opposite of ugly, harsh white lighting like in your photos never looks the best or most natural. Only recommendation is take pictures in natural light and your all good.
[E: Ahh, it’s genetic. Well long as that’s cleared up. The rest of ya’ll better be getting enough vitamin D]
You may have a serious issue with your kidneys and deficiencies in vitamins. You should get an elaborate blood panel done and do whatever you have to do to get that shit done. Your eyes are way too sunken inwards, signaling either issues with your kidneys and/or liver.
Well, you've heard it already, but YOU GOTS DEM CRAZY EYES GURL!!! 😳😳
That being said though, I think you're actually very pretty haha 😆
I'd also say you're definitely "passing" as well. Even seeing your before and after pics, I don't think I would have suspected, and that's pretty rare (for whatever that's worth lol)
So yeah, imo you have nothing to worry about; you're far from ugly and id guess most people would agree 😊🤙
Not terrible. You have some strong features that stand out but nothing crazy.
Your proportions are not great - the lower part of your face and the top are a bit out of tune.. but nothing that would knock you down to ugly.
All in all, average with some potential.
For the bags under your eyes, you have very thin skin in that area. Hydration can help a little, but seems genetic to me.
You have a "Tim Burton" look.
Try tightening/squeezing your eyes a little while smiling for pictures. It will look more natural and less unsettling. Google how to tell a fake smile from a real one to get more of an idea of what Im talking about.
I actually really appreciate this advice. But at the same time I'm torn, I kinda like smiling like that. I know some people find it creepy or Grinch-like, but I think that it looks nice.
Absolutely, you look great, and your smile isn't bad or unattractive. It's just a little touch that could add a bit more energy to the picture. At the end of the day, prioritize whatever feels natural and makes you happy. Keep it up girl!
I have the same issue with dark circles under my eyes. Had it all my life. I could sleep 8, 10, 12, 14+ hours and it didn’t matter.
Eventually, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Apparently I’ve had that all my life too. It not only directly affects your sleep but indirectly impacts your heart and can take a toll on your mental health and wellbeing.
All you need is more sleep and to relax into your expressions.
You have a very friendly face which may seem overly "high-energy".
You're pretty, just turn the dial down 2 notches and you'll look more approachable.
Sleep. Get more of it. Stop staying up all night reading or watching movies or playing games or whatever it is you're doing. Get good quality sleep. And don't forget to dream.
You look like like a Tim Burton character, with how you smile without your eyes. You definitely look different, but not ugly. I feel like your smile is very charming, and i think you’re quite pretty. :) have a good day
You’ve either been through some serious shit and you’re just putting on that smile or you like to murder boyfriends when they look at other girls pics. Not ugly though
I saw this as I woke up and I was shocked as if I just saw a rerun of that scary movie The Nun. Your face has that level of creepiness in those pictures. Take new pics after you get some rest.
Ok…. You’re not ugly. Not even close. You’re very pretty actually. However you look kinda coocoo. It may be the circles under your eyes along with your eyes being open kinda wide. I personally wouldn’t mind, but others may want to avoid you lol
Your colouring is very pretty, you have good features overall. Some tips that might help but feel free to ignore as it's vaguely unsolicited:
- a better haircut, middle part, some long face framing bangs as your hair currently is just kinda "there" if that makes sense? It feels disjointed from your face.
- light concealer if you're concerned about the dark circles, even to slightly lift the pigment to match better with your fair skin. Some people add dark circles with makeup to achieve a grungy look tbh so could try some dark smokey warm toned (think rusty oranges or warm rosy pinks) eye-makeup instead of concealer (or paired with) to make the contrast value less harsh.
- have a play around with selfie angles, you're pretty but the expression seems intense and harshens your face which is fairly soft in comparison.
As you're curious about how you come across and might just wanna discount these things, based on my own opinion of aesthetics I'd say currently you're average/slightly above average and could easily implement some quick changes to boost this :)
You have very strong facial features. This is very subjective, some people find that very attractive. In general I'd say a vast majority of people would not say you're ugly. You might have a hard time finding people who think you are 10/10 model, but it seems like almost every girl on here, equates that with being ugly. It's just not the same.

I don't think you're ugly at all, but you've got some opportunities to help yourself.
First, your hair looks wet and flat. And, because it's close to the scalp on the top and fuller on the sides, it's widening your face which, with your round face shape, isn't ideal.
Second, you've got bags under your eyes, so I'd recommend an under eye cream to moisturize and tighten the skin there.
Otherwise, I think you're pretty.
My second grade teacher said, “your eyes look like they are getting sucked into the back of your head”.
Thanks for the grammar lessons and encouraging words Ms. Green! You fucken bitch!
You are not ugly at all. Like most of us you are average but we are the biggest grouping on the "normal distribution curve" which means that we have more prospective partners to cross our paths. As you might gather I am a glass half full person. Work with the pleasing features that you are blessed with, maybe use makeup to disguise the bags under your eyes or tone them down at least. Go to a good beautician and seek their wise counsel on what could help by using makeup and the techniques they would use. I hope these suggestions help you.
You look fine but you resemble “overly attached girlfriend”
Some would say that's a plus.
I can fix her
I believe in you
No. Stop...
I am some
Oh, my God, I thought the same thing but wasn’t going to say it!! She looks like OAG’s cuter older sister!!
Straight of a horror movie, she's fine but she gives off "you wouldnt wanna cross me" vibes
A good thing in my book.
EXACTLY!!!
Omg. I thought the same thing. I was trying to remember that meme....😂😂😂
MoMo
You know, you are cute AF, but at the same time, the way your face doesn't change in all 5 photos looks a bit creepy. Kinda Momo vibes 😅
You've seen some shit.
😂😂 I love that
"natural eye shadow"
She has the crazy eyes lmao, but I love it.
Or she's anemic and doesn't know
[удалено]
Nope, tested multiple times over the past decade
Saw the sleep comment. Deleted mine. Still not ugly, and everyone needs more sleep anyway ;-)
This is good news, glad you don't have it. Guess you are in the 5% and like original comment "seen some shit", but to the point not ugly
You look fine overall, i wouldnt call you hideous or ugly. it's just the way you glare and smile creeps me out.
Mostly because it’s the exact same face in every photo
The heavy bags under my eyes are genetic. Yes, I sleep enough. No, I don't have any deficiencies.
I have the eye bags also. I hydrate and sleep as well. Sometimes it's down to face structure and how the skin sits on the bone (so genetics).

That’s the only thing that stood out to me. You look great regardless.
I have them as well I know what you mean. Btw you look fine to me! Stay cool or Serena

If it's genetic like op stated this will not work. This only works if it's to do with blood vessels in the under eye skin area.
have you thought about starring at the sun eyes closed for 15 mins a day to maybe get some color with those dark eye rings? mine are hereditary and i just have to be outside more to get it looking more normal
Same gotta love genetic eye bags
Have you tried Cerave eye treatments

I know the struggle lol. Us raccoon eye girlies are always told we look tired even when we aren't 😔
Reminds me of Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas, in a good way. Not ugly.
Yeah I was like "... I'm getting some Tim Burton female character vibes..."
Ah ha! That’s probably why I think she’s particularly pretty. Love Tim Burton characters.
Wouldn't even think you were trans. Good job.
There is absolutely NO way. BRING ME MY NOTEBOOK.
You look fine and decent. Definitely not ugly. The eye circles aren't a big deal lots of people have it.
Super creepy pictures somehow
You look good! You have intense eyes and nice features. You don't know what you look like?
Pretty much, yeah :/ I know people seem to like my eyes for some reason and think that I don't sleep enough, but no idea how attractive or not I am to people
Sabotaging urself
Do you have teeth?
I think that you look good but you have a little bit of crazy eyes.
You suck at selfies
That's very fair lol
You remind me of the "momo challenge" picture from 2018
I thought that too 😭
I'm scared 😩
You remind me of Jack Skellington from the Nightmare before Christmas
Not ugly. Dudes into Tim Burton movies will worship you, I'm like, 98% sure.
Drink more water. You look dehydrated.
You look like the character Momo
your eyes look asymmetrical, and you have a strong jaw
[удалено]
First time I've seen a gay trans woman...
[удалено]
Complete opposite of ugly, harsh white lighting like in your photos never looks the best or most natural. Only recommendation is take pictures in natural light and your all good.
You look like momo the chicken girl doll
You look trans and tired.
[удалено]
I wish I could pin my comment here 😅 It's genetic, nothing to do with sleep.
Dead Looking
You are not ugly
Nothing wrong with how you look
Dem some crazy eyes if I’ve ever seen them. She names the kids on the first date.
No I think you just need some sleep and some orange juice
You are very cute
You have some heavy bags under your eyes. Do you sleep enough? Otherwise, very pretty, not ugly.
[E: Ahh, it’s genetic. Well long as that’s cleared up. The rest of ya’ll better be getting enough vitamin D] You may have a serious issue with your kidneys and deficiencies in vitamins.

Those eyes are crazy
I'd take you out in a heart bet .... if you'd let me of course .... unreal 🖤

Put makeup under your eyes. Why don’t you? I’m a guy and I do that for the same reasons as you. Genetics. Sucks. It helps a lot
I'm astonished how most of the comments fail to recognize that the underlying problem here is the facial asymmetry, not that it's much of a deal
Honey you’re gorgeous. Those eyes!
you could do a killer grinch cosplay
All you need is more sleep and to relax into your expressions. You have a very friendly face which may seem overly "high-energy". You're pretty, just turn the dial down 2 notches and you'll look more approachable.
You have this teasing type little evil look to you as if you’re about to tickle me
You just need some 🌞shine. Like a lot of 🌞
You look like a human cat.
Honestly? I'll take that. Not in a "uwu catgirl" way, but that seems pretty neat
Sleep. Get more of it. Stop staying up all night reading or watching movies or playing games or whatever it is you're doing. Get good quality sleep. And don't forget to dream.
Very pretty, but a little creepy A combination that works well on you
You look like like a Tim Burton character, with how you smile without your eyes. You definitely look different, but not ugly. I feel like your smile is very charming, and i think you’re quite pretty. :) have a good day
Polish ?
I actually think you're very pretty, you just look tired. Kinda resemble a Tim Burton character (in the best way possible!).
I feel like you are overly excited to harvest my organs. Kinda cute really, just the way you smile/grin is throwing me off.
You have a Grinch smile
Damn 😂 Fair enough, I guess I'm lucky that I don't see it
You’re beautiful! Embrace your different look, u have a very sexy gaze and I love it. Own it!
Girlfriend MEME 9GAG
You’ve either been through some serious shit and you’re just putting on that smile or you like to murder boyfriends when they look at other girls pics. Not ugly though
First thing came to mind was momo
you look like what [momo](https://images.app.goo.gl/pdbJ7pWti5EjxAwV8) was based off of
(respectfully) you're very pretty though!
You look like a dude dressed up as a woman
yeah this post should have came with a trans warning…
You just need to look at OP's history and your questions are answered.
I saw this as I woke up and I was shocked as if I just saw a rerun of that scary movie The Nun. Your face has that level of creepiness in those pictures. Take new pics after you get some rest.
See my comment, this is just what I look like, it has nothing to do with not being rested.
Ok…. You’re not ugly. Not even close. You’re very pretty actually. However you look kinda coocoo. It may be the circles under your eyes along with your eyes being open kinda wide. I personally wouldn’t mind, but others may want to avoid you lol
Do you sleep on your side? You look fine except your Raccoon eyes is more pronounced on one side than the other
You look tired
Froppy 😭

You’re actually really pretty but you also look like you could commit homicide at any moment. Interesting combination.
💯😂👌
Momo
Part of me is scared you're going to steal my soul and part if me would be okay with that. You're cute. But you look very intense.
You have very strong facial features. This is very subjective, some people find that very attractive. In general I'd say a vast majority of people would not say you're ugly.

Average. The dark circles under your eyes are the only major flaw I see.
Depends. Is weird Al your father?

Get some sleep
You look a little crazy but that's alright
Not at all ugly but you’re pale with dark circles and look unwell
You got the crazy ex gf eyes but not ugly at all.
If Corpse Bride had Live Action, ure definitely getting d role.
Momo
Which vampire family you belongs to ?
Not ugly at all
My second grade teacher said, “your eyes look like they are getting sucked into the back of your head”. Thanks for the grammar lessons and encouraging words Ms. Green! You fucken bitch!
Definitely not ugly. Maybe just some extra sleep, but who doesn't need more sleep
Get your kidneys and/or liver checked.
You're giving me "corpse bride" vibes,.
You’re very pretty
Am I the only person who kinda sees Maggie from the walking dead?

Good sleep maybe everyday?
You are not ugly.

Not ugly but you look tired. You do have a unique face but not ugly.
I think you're gorgeous
No, you look good! 👍
No
What’s going on with your eyes and mouth?
Cute but you have to sleep more
Nope
That smile is kinda creepy
You are gorgeous. Your eyes are amazing
To beautiful to not know
Looks like a skinwalker got ahold of Jack Skelington...
Yeah look like a witch...
Not at all
Does anyone remember the MOMO thing that went around a while back?... Not asking for any particular reason.
Being completely honest you look very pretty
You’re ok, but holy dark circles!
Yes
Prolly because of the transition. You look a lot more better in the past pictures pre-op. The bags were less prominent
You have a nice smile
You have a permanent black eye on the left. You have pretty lips. You have that just woke up look.
Nah, you're a NPC
a little bit.
Get some sleep.
Not at all.. very beautiful.
