In the latest episode of Elle's podcast, the discussion centers around the issue of beauty standards, specifically in relation to the popular TV show 'Love Island.' The topic of conversation revolves around how these women, most of whom are not close to 30, appear to look much older due to cosmetic procedures like Botox and fillers. Elle delves deep into the issue of unrealistic beauty standards and how they are perpetuated throughout society. Elle highlights the cyclical nature of beauty standards, where a certain look becomes popular, gets adopted by the masses, becomes oversaturated, and is then villainized. This cycle is driven by societal sentiments influenced by high-status groups, which are then transformed into beauty trends by marketers. The podcast also touches on the role of celebrities in setting these standards, using Kylie Jenner as a prime example. Elle concludes by pointing out that while individuals can choose which societal pressures to conform to, the pressure to conform will always exist as long as we live within a society. She encourages listeners to be more aware of these pressures and to make conscious choices about which ones to follow.
