The typical beauty of women from East to West has changed dramatically over the past century, but is still easily recognizable.

It is interesting to learn what people who lived in the past looked like and how they differ from us modern people today. Each ethnic group has its own unique beauty, which can be recognized by looking at it from hair color, skin color to eyes, mouth corners, etc. For example, Eastern Europeans will have extremely white skin, high foreheads or Chinese people will have single eyelids, yellow skin, etc. All are beautiful and radiant in their own way.

But even within a nation, people change constantly. When you look at the comparison image below, you will be surprised at how much women from different parts of the world have changed in just the past 100 years. Over the years, you can see that the typical beauty of each nation will change more or less to suit the flow of the times, fashion trends, makeup, etc. However, their charisma and unique features are still quite easy to recognize.
