What Makes a Beautiful Face?

We all have heard about the phrase, 'Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder'. Everybody's perception of beauty is definitely different from one and other. There is no mathematical or magical formula for beauty. I have often wondered what makes a beautiful face? Are there any particular criteria for the same? Is beauty an intrinsic attribute? Does one need to go all out and opt for cosmetic surgery to 'enhance' ones looks? Well, I guess every one of us would want to drop out of bed in the morning with gorgeous looks. This includes an enviable body, gorgeous hair, porcelain skin, attractive features and the best in fashionable attire and cosmetics! Everybody looks up with envy at movie stars who always appear perfect anywhere they are spotted. So, is this what makes a beautiful face? Is beauty all about perfection?

Well, the truth about a beautiful face lies a bit in its imperfection! It's true our Hollywood hotties go under the knife to enhance their features and body but let's face it; the beauty can be credited to the surgeon in this case! Of course, there are times when cosmetic surgery is a boon to people who need to opt for that method due to unavoidable medical reasons. However, in the current times this method has only become a trend of sorts where features are altered only to please one's whims and fancies! In that case, the choice is entirely up to the individual.

Makeup obviously helps to enhance one's beauty and personally, I would hate to be without my lip-gloss or eyeliner. Of course, makeup is also not a base to define beauty. Makeup does help to cover up basic visible flaws, but those who completely rely on the grease paint need to realize this is only temporary. Makeup can only help you to look beautiful for a few hours. After all, would you honestly wish to rely on it every single day? A 'beautiful' face is not truly beautiful if it does not feel confident without makeup.

So, what makes a beautiful face? What is the essence behind true beauty? Well, a beautiful face belongs to the one who has a beautiful mind. A person who is beautiful from within needs no makeup to jazz up the looks. Beauty experts have always spoken about perfect face symmetry being the benchmark for true beauty. However, not everybody is blessed with a perfectly symmetrical face with gorgeous eyes and stunning lips. A person can be found attractive due to various reasons. You might find a face beautiful simply because you know the person and love him/her for the inner qualities. This is purely subjective and as mentioned before, beauty definitely lies in the eyes of the beholder! Physical attraction is not always based on looks, but also involves emotions that you feel for the person. For some, movie stars are the epitome of beauty whereas for others, even the most average looking individual may seem very beautiful! After all, it depends on each one's thinking and perception! There can never be any perfect criterion for a beautiful face! So, feel beautiful and confident from within and smile because you know you are beautiful!
