Some people just seem to look a bit more attractive to others, often for quite subtle reasons.īut when a person appears ‘more attractive’ to others, this can give them a competitive edge in certain environments.
It’s not fair, but it does seem to be the reality for most cultures. Career, Relationships and Appearance are interlinked
#Perfect face features skin#
Perhaps SELFIE posting has amplified the fact that we are now more susceptible than ever to being influenced by the opinions of what our friends, peers & celebrities think of as being ‘beautiful’ – but if we look closer, we’ll find some stability in what people seem to rate as being ‘attractive’ – and it’s primarily linked with healthy-looking skin and balanced facial features. But I also know that the deeper brain processes that influence ‘what we think is beautiful’ are not so readily altered. But I know that this view of ‘what is beautiful’ may not be the case with others.Īs social creatures, I fully understand that we DO evaluate others based on our own perceptions of ‘beauty,’ as illusive as they are to define – and as susceptible to the latest social media trends as they may be in our digital worlds.Īnd I’m aware that Social Media & What is Considered Attractive MAY Change Significantly over Future Decades because we’re increasingly being influenced by our VISUAL social media & constant SELFIE sharing. It’s holistic, and physical is only part of it. In other words, my definition of BEAUTIFUL is a vibrant energy that a person has when they walk into, or across, a room. Often including a bit of character along the way. This ideally includes a reflection of their internal traits, integrated with their more visible traits. My definition of beauty involves the ‘vibe’ that a person seems to reflect. To me, beauty is a form of energy rather than a feature or physical attribute. If you ask 100 people what “beauty” is – or how they define it – chances are you’ll get 100 different answers. But is beauty really important – and if so, why? Even though our descriptions of what is ‘beautiful’ or ‘appealing’ vary slightly over time, perception remains relatively stable across different cultures. That being said our perceptions about “what makes a face beautiful” seems to remain unchanged. Larger upper lips and darker eyebrows are quite ‘on trend’ at the moment. Showing stability as much as they show potential for change. What’s interesting is that our perceptions of beauty are quite similar across different regions. It also seems these perceptions would be likely to change over time, as happens with other visual preferences such as body or facial piercings or tattoos. It makes sense, then, that our perceptions of facial attractiveness or “beauty” would vary between different cultures and regions.
We do know that for every human culture and race, people have always held their own unique perception of ‘what makes a face or body “beautiful.” Δ So are our views about what is beautiful whimsical, superficial and fleeting or do our interpretations of beauty stem from deeper drives?
