Ekin Su's beauty is actually stunning

Seriously though, how beautiful is she. She's legit making me question my sexuality 😂 and I'm totally straight.
Watching Love Island All Stars and she comes on and her face is literally breath taking to look at. Yeah I'm sure she's had work done but it doesn't look fake in my opinion.
Maya Jama has the same sort of beauty, both of them possibly some of the best looking women in the world.

It’s a bit like Beauty-By-Numbers though, isn’t it?

Totally smooth face, frozen expression, fillers, plumped up lips, long fake eyelashes, nose job, microbladed eyebrows, maybe resculpted jawline?

The end result is very pretty but a bit soulless, imo. There’s a thousands of other women who have exactly the same look, same styling. It’s the modern version of the Stepford Wives.

I’m not a fan of cosmetic surgery, as a general rule. In most cases the end result looks just contrived and unoriginal, even when it’s done well, as is the case here.

Also, I’ve found that people who have had lots of work look better on camera than in real life. It doesn’t always look as good in person as the camera suggests.

I also don’t think think that these kind of beauty standards are healthy - it sets unrealistic expectations for our young girls and feeds into the misogynistic bullshit that only young, flawless faces can be beautiful.

I think Ekin is attractive. But not jaw droppingly so. I didn’t realise she’d had all that work done, you can see some of it, but not all. I prefer natural beauty. It’s a preference.

TheIvyRestaurant · 17/02/2025 02:44

I had to Google her as I wouldn’t know her if she crossed me in the street. I mean she’s pretty but I think all these women look exactly the same, like when you were a kid and got the same barbie a few times over for your birthday. I don’t think she’s out of this world stunning.

Absolutely!

I also noticed that some of 'off guard' photos in the press the work looked bad in some of them . Again those overfilled cheekbones, and the same with the other woman.

She's pretty unrecognisable from before she had the work done however I agree that now, she's beautiful. She was pretty before but she's a different level now.

I don't know. I'm not sure if the photo on the left looks better with its so called imperfections. I don't believe the photo on the right hasn't been enhanced at all either (something about the under eye area). It just looks weird, not beautiful.

LindorDoubleChoc · 17/02/2025 06:18

🤣 at Maya being "quite pretty".

AmusedOpalShaker · 17/02/2025 06:25

Maya is beautiful, yes. I feel that Ekin’s outer beauty is ruined by her inner ugliness, to be honest.

The way she behaves just diminishes everything else for me, sorry!

(And here’s me saying that I would never watch Love Island haha)

discdiscsnap · 17/02/2025 06:35

Agree Maya jama is absolutely stunning . Ekin su is beautiful too .

wooliegloves · 17/02/2025 06:44

she has that waxy jacko look, not for me!

Flexilexy · 17/02/2025 06:44

Ekin has a weird thing with here eyes, almost like there’s too much white. I get distracted by it every time I see her.
Thay said, I’d feel inferior stood next to her in Tesco for sure.

wooliegloves · 17/02/2025 06:45

maya is a natural beauty.

she is gorgeous but not natural!

This! a face in motion is quite different

lovelysunshine22 · 17/02/2025 06:49

Ive met her and she is very pretty in person...very fake personality however. Nice when she needs to be.

globalwondering · 17/02/2025 06:52

They're both stunning. Maya Jama in particular is one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen.
It's depressing reading the comments from women on here who will tear peoples appearances apart. You wouldn't see men saying such nasty things about each other.
The people on this thread who don't even know who Ekin or Maya are, and have gone out of their way to google them so they can make a negative comment amaze me.

wooliegloves · 17/02/2025 07:02

@globalwondering it's ok to disagree that you find someone beautiful or not 😆. i say the same on "is Benedict Cumberbatch gorgeous" threads

Bananaram · 17/02/2025 07:09

I do think Maya Jama is absolutely stunning, regardless of whether she has had work done to me she is stunning.

I do think Ekin Su is very good looking, however that before and after picture a previous poster put up, if I had that before I wouldn't waste money on surgery, she was already beautiful. But then again I think more and more young women are opting for surgery due to insecurities (most likely from the rise of social media and the airbrushed filtered version of perfect we see on Instagram being sold as real life) and ruining their faces in the process.

I'm not opposed to surgery and treatments (I've had moles removed and Invisalign for my teeth due to my own insecurities) but when you're already perfect looking I don't understand. I worked with someone who was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, she would turn heads wearing very little makeup with her hair scraped back. I saw her Instagram pictures recently and couldn't believe what she had done to her face, definitely lip fillers and I'm guessing cheeky fillers which gave her face a very puffy, unnatural look.

EnjoythemoneyJane · 16/02/2025 17:55

Just googled her. Blimey. And not in a good way.

I really, really don’t get the identikit off-the-shelf teeth/cheeks/lips/tits/brows/hair thing that passes for beauty now. All these women start out looking way more attractive and individual but seem to want to become interchangeable surgeried, lifted, filled and bleached facsimiles of each other.

But then I’m old as Father fkn Time so what do I know 🤷‍♀️

This, Ekin Su could be any one of interchangeable identikit 'reality tv 'slebs, from multi media platforms these days. Maya at least looks like more of an individual.

Mumofyellows · 17/02/2025 07:15

Ekin looks lovely when she has minimal makeup on during the day, the huge amounts of heavy makeup she (and they all) wear in the evening is a bit aging on her.

GretchenWienersHair · 17/02/2025 07:19

Ekin Su is pretty but “normal” pretty - there’s nothing interesting about her face. Maya Jama is beautiful because she doesn’t look like every other woman on the TV. She has the same style etc., but her actual facial features aren’t the typical Snapchat filter look. I think it’s her east African features - a beauty we don’t see celebrated all that often in the U.K.

I get what you mean about the girl-crushing thing. Every time I see the singer Tyla I just wish I had her face!

Elderflower14 · 17/02/2025 07:22

Will never get past her looking a right prat trying to look sexy crawling on the ice when she did DOI.. Was utterly utterly cringe inducing!! 😫

Onceachunkymonkey · 17/02/2025 07:27

Both are very attractive women. I don’t get the catty comments. Maya though I agree is stunning,

unlikelywitch · 17/02/2025 08:16

Ekin is very attractive but the work she’s had done is so obvious. Maya was more stunning before she started messing about with her face.

Both of them represent the slightly pornified, identikit, insta archetype though so not my personal idea of beauty.

DaringTurtle · 17/02/2025 08:23

I’ve met Maya Jama in person…. And I was surprised how different she looked IRL. Her skin was not as perfect as you’d expect. It was refreshing to realise celebs are just like the rest of us. (She was casually dressed it wasn’t a red carpet thing so she’d likely done her own makeup). She was very friendly but if you’d seen her that day she looked just like an average (but still attractive) woman of her age.

PepsiPepsiPepsi · 17/02/2025 12:26

She is beautiful but I recently saw a picture of what she use to look like and reminded me of the meme "you're not ugly you're just broke" 😂

kerstina · 17/02/2025 12:38

I find Grace of love island more beautiful I think it’s because she seems a nicer person . More straightforward not manipulative.
