A smile can get you places. It can send you to new heights in your profession when you exude confidence with a great smile. It can also get you noticed at the bar, when you’re looking to find a lover. It can also, make you seem warmer and more welcoming. So there are lots of good reasons for you to improve your smile. It might not seem important when you’re young because you have the beam of youthful skin and energetic eyes. But when you have been living for a few decades, you will want to improve your smile so you can open new doors in your life.
Looking thinner
In a recent study, sad faces looked heavier and smiling faces looked thinner. For some reason, people who were smiling, looked like their facial features, neck, mouth and cheeks all looked in proportion with someone who has a healthy body mass index. It was quite surprising but then the study of shapes also linked the research. When you smile, you tend to have an oval or triangle shape. Your cheeks flare out and your chin is lifted. When you have a frowned resting face, the chin is elongated, sagging and your muscles pool at the bottom of your face, creating a pear shape. So if you want to improve your smile, focus on lifting your cheeks more and out to the side. Don’t do the ‘lazy smile’ which doesn’t move these features.
A crooked smile?
