Did you know that your makeup says a lot about your personality besides showing that you are absolutely fabulous? Before, you try on a new trend or go classic, consider what message you will be sending to onlookers.
Makeup, like most techniques of self-expression, is more than just meets the eye. Your choice of eyeliner, blush and lipstick is a reflection of who you are as an individual. Some ladies prefer minimal mascara, bold lipstick or no eye shadow at all. Behold 4 personality types that are reflected in your way of wearing makeup.
Innovator
Do you like playing around with your daily makeup routine? You must be an inventive person. You have even suggested the best colour for your friend’s photo wedding invitations because you know it matches their skin color! You adore a monochromatic look but always find a way to make it stand out. Often, you try out new products from artificial eyelashes to nails. Your friends call you a cosmetic shapeshifter because each day you pull out a totally different ensemble. You certainly are an innovator.
Wild
The good-girl appearance is flirtatious and fun but you find it a bit intimidating. You’d rather have a provocative look as it invites and at the same time deflects an approach. Perhaps you like dominant and daring eyes paired with come-hither curls. These beauty signs exhibit an attractive coyness. Another example of makeup that shows you are wild is deep-purple smoky eyes and oates of dark mascara. You also like wild but touchable spirals. Sometimes you stick to nude lip colour and minimum blush. This shows that you normally make the life of any party. Don’t be surprised if you seduce a guy without uttering a single word.
Powerful and confident
Hairstyles and makeup that show maturity can allude to a powerful personality. Bold lips, prominent eyebrows and hair pulled off your face suggest self-assurance. You like highlighting your eyebrows with a pencil and when you shop for lipstick, you are more inclined to deep berry colour. This is the type of look that can earn you a dream gig or a handsome guy!
Approachable
There are particular physical cues that are downright welcoming. Any child-like makeup makes people think you are friendly. Examples of such makeup include rosy-peachy cheeks, shiny and plump lips, and wide eyes. When you tousle your hair or make loose weaves, you tend to become accessible thereby invite a lot of people into your circle. It means you are sociable and can easily make new friends. If you want to pull off a calm look, go for a toned down and balanced makeup. Don’t let one feature overpower another.
Conclusion
Expert research indicates that your makeup has effects on how people perceive you. The best thing about it is that you can work out your looks to your advantage. If you want to send the right message to people, consider the aforementioned beauty signals. Keep in mind that the first impression lasts long. Within as little as 10 seconds of introduction, someone will make an assumption about your personality. Choose the right makeup!
