What Your Facial Features Say
About Your Personality
Yes, your face is saying
something. You're born with the features you have for a reason. The face is a
map of your personality as well as your whole life. Hot off the heels of a
study that revealed whether you're a fling or wife-y material, we wanted to
know more about what our eyes, nose, mouth, etc., are telling the world. Here,
the lays out what your facial features communicate about you (or your boyfriend
or best friend), based on studies in 3,000-year-old face reading derived from
Chinese medicine.
1. A Rounded Forehead
What we look at most are the
shapes of foreheads because they reveal a lot about a person. If you have a
rounded one, like Christina Ricci, it typically means you're creative,
artistic, highly emotional, but not always logical.
2. A Slanted Forehead
If your forehead slants back,
like Ryan Seacrest's, that usually means you're someone who is entrepreneurial
and likes to get results, but doesn't like to talk about their personal self.
If you're dating a person with a slanted forehead, know that they tend not to
want to talk about the relationship and would rather just do their own thing.
3. Flat Forehead
If your boyfriend or
girlfriend has a flat forehead, like Brad Pitt, that says that he or she will
most likely like to think on things before taking action.
4. Strong Eyebrows
The stronger they are on
someone's face, the more self confidence they have and the more driven they'll
be. If you have a brushy set of brows, like Camilla Belle's, in addition to
having confidence, you'll also tend to take a logical approach to life and have
a strong sex drive. Even more, you'll be able to deal with strong emotions and
stand up to people more easily.
5. Naturally Thin Eyebrows
If you were born with
naturally thin eyebrows, like Paris Hilton, it doesn't mean you have zero self
confidence. It does mean that you might struggle with self confidence here and
there. However, there will be other features on your face that will show
strength in other ways, so don't give up hope.
6. Plucked, Super-Thin Eyebrows
If you're someone who plucks
their eyebrows thin, like Pamela Anderson, beware. This very action is believed
to reduce your ability to be assertive, and this facial feature can actually
attract abusive partners into your life. The Chinese theory behind this is that
as you pluck away your brows, you take away your strength, since that's what
your eyebrows stand for.
7. Big, Beautiful Eyes
Our eyes give away our
communication style. Wide-eyed people, like Zooey Deschanel, usually have an
open heart and tend to talk a lot. They'll talk to strangers, opening up to
them, and they often think that's how everyone should be.
8. Small Eyes
People with small or deep-set
eyes, like Taylor Swift, are more reserved and skeptical-they hold their cards
close to their vest. This facial feature also signals that it takes a while to
earn their trust, but once you have it, you'll have it forever.
9. A Prominent Nose
The Chinese say the more
prominent your nose is, like Lea Michele's, the more you care about the quality
of your work and the more you'll notice details that others miss, for example
that the picture on the wall is crooked. It also means you're picky, sensitive
to little things, and that you're a perfectionist that likes to plan ahead.
10. A Small Nose
Those with smaller noses, like
Ashley Greene, tend to have a motto: I work smart, not hard. Meaning that
they're not total perfectionists, but they like to be efficient. These people
also aren't so focused on every tiny little detail, so they don't sweat the
small stuff.
11. A Large Mouth/Full Lips
One of the main messages the
mouth gives is how you are in relationships. It shows how nurturing you'll
be, how giving, and how well you speak the language of relationships (aka how important they are
to you)
If you have a larger mouth or
fuller lips, like Angelia Jolie, it usually means that friendships or relationships are
really important to you and you're a naturally giving person. This is also the sign of someone
who wants to be a mother.
12. A Small Mouth/Thin Lips
If you have a small mouth or
really thin lips, like Daniel Radcliffe, this usually means you're not someone
who has to be attached at the hip. In other words you need space and privacy
and don't need to be with your partner or friends at all times.
13 Larger Bottom Lip
If the lower lip is larger in
comparison to the upper lip, like Katy Perry's, it means you're a pleasure
seeker and that you love the joys in life. However, you have the potential to
enjoy life a bit too much and make the choice to go after pleasure instead of
stay in balance.
Conversely, if the upper lip
is larger, it can mean that you tend to create drama in relationships
14. A Strong Chin
The chin stands for your level
of will power, your stubbornness, your tenacity. The more prominent the chin,
like Kristen Stewart's, the more stubborn you'll be, but you'll also have the
ability to withstand tough times. The chin also correlates to the level of
testosterone in the body, so you'll have a higher sex drive. Those with a
strong chin are also super independent, so they could struggle with monogamy.
On the other hand, those with
a small chin [when it doesn't stick out and isn't a prominent feature] can lack
self confidence and willpower. They can often feel like they don't have the
strength to make it through when the going gets tough, but that's not
necessarily true. It's more of their belief system that they don't think they
will be able to push through, so they give up.
Conversely, if the upper lip
is larger, it can mean that you tend to create drama in relationships.
15. Strong, Round
Cheeks
Cheeks stand for the ability
to speak up-they're a sign that you can manage a staff and give good advice to
people whether or not they ask for it.
The more prominent your
cheeks, like Jessica Alba's, the more likely it is that you'll hold a position
of power, speak up, and give great advice.
16. Flat Cheeks
If you have flatter cheeks,
like Rihanna's, it mainly means that you most likely don't like to give orders
or take them.
17. A Strong Jaw
The larger and more well defined
your jawline is, like Olivia Wilde's, the more driven and competitive you are.
They're the kind of people that like to achieve a goal and say, 'what's next?'
They're also good at sizing up people, but that can also mean they can be
judgemental.
So, what facial
features do you have? And what do they say about you?
