The 7 Facial Beauty Signs

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, they say. But we seem to be looking with different eyes all the time, all over the world.  The world around us changes, the way we conceive beauty changes. Just look at old pictures from maybe ten years ago, don’t you always feel embarrassed when you see how everybody, you included, looked at that time? I know I do! Yet that was ‘in’ then, unimaginably now. And of course we live in a time that vintage is hot and trends of the past keep coming back. Yet it’s not quite the same if you think about it, because it’s all been given a modern spin. It’s very hard to recreate that old look nowadays, no matter how hard we try.

But some things always seem to stay the same, take the 7 beauty signs. Those are I don’t know how old, yet we keep holding on to them (even though hardly anyone can name all of them if you ask). Well, I think they’re a bit outdated, so I thought it might be fun to come up with 7 new beauty signs.

It’s just what I consider as beautiful, you’re free to disagree. But please share with me what you think should be the 7 beauty signs now. Just to be clear I’m talking about the 7 facial beauty signs.
