2. Big eyes vs. Narrow eyes
When it comes to ocular shapes, it seems Western and Chinese beauty standards don't see eye-to-eye.
Many Chinese think girls with big eyes are the most beautiful. If their eyes have a double-fold eyelid, that is considered perfect.
However, most foreigners seem to prefer Chinese girls with slanted and narrow eyes and eyebrows. Chinese renowned model Lyv Yan is often considered the country's most beautiful by foreigners, while quite a few Chinese people think her appearance doesn't fit with traditional beauty standards.
