Tips for FACIAL SYMMETRY (both Short-Term AND Long-Term Solutions!)

Seeing the asymmetry on the faces of the most beautiful women makes me feel better. We are normal humans, and we are beautiful, too! Thank you❤

I'm one of the victims of inverted filter. It ruined my self esteem for a while. It is when I decided to follow my hairdressers advice and try side part. She'd been suggesting it for years but I was always against it and she never pushed me and she was right. It become less noticable even for me. Watching this video and seeing Kat who I think is one of the most beautiful people in the world having a same jaw moving to a side as me and I never noticed just helped heal my confidence so much

[@stylerefinement]

I’m glad the video was helpful for your confidence ❤️ No one has a perfectly symmetrical face!

[@anjalisingh-bh1gi]

I have a nose that leans to one side and that really bothers me a lot and my smile seems crooked too, the most annoying this however is my one eye looking larger than the other. Yes, looking at other faces having similar issues really helped boost my confidence. Like, yeah it is commonly found in human faces and with more and more people posting on the internet you can really see that the irregularities are common.

[@LeaveBritneyalone580]

@@anjalisingh-bh1gi I have absolutley same face. One eyebrow is higher,one eye is bigger, nose leans to one side,smile/jaw is crooked. Seeing how normal it is and not really noticable in other people really helped my confidence so much

[@katrinalikespancakes]

I always love asymmetry in others' faces but negatively fixate on my own. My eyes are large and very asymmetrical; one sits lower on my face and is less rounded. Ugh!! Catch me squinting in every photo to try and hide the unevenness lol. Thanks for the tips! I'm going to do a side part from now on and try some softer makeup. I also want to experiment with hats, perhaps something like a tilted beret could help offset asymmetry?!

[@stylerefinement]

Yes! An accessory like a beret would also def draw up the attention away from the asymmetry in your eyes as well ❤️

I'm an artist and I can tell y'all for sure, perfect facial or body symmetry isn't real. Everyone has a certain degree of asymmetry. I think that's what makes us different, unique and beautiful. Beauty is way far from perfection, there are some really gorgeous captivating faces that aren't the standart.

[@stylerefinement]

I agree completely - imperfection is beautiful ❤

[@mitza420]

Exactly, I also read somewhere that we are actually attracted to slight assymetry

[@g3andrea]

Beautifully explained, Jenn. Hair and makeup are the first line of adjustments for creating overall balance in facial features for overall appearance. You have been extremely helpful with advice in your videos. I would wager most people are not aware of acupuncture as an alternative to botox. I would love to learn more about micro-needling.

[@stylerefinement]

Thank you so much Andrea! ❤️ Microneedling has been a big help in improving the overall texture and brightness of the skin - gives me a nice glow kinda like getting a facial, but the first couple of days the skin definitely burns from the scars from the needles! Def a more painful process than facial acupuncture

Love your videos! I have a nose that curves with a bump so I would say that acupuncture would not work for that. I've wanted to get it "fixed" forever but now my beautiful little girl has my nose and I'm so glad I stayed with my own features. No way I would have been happier.

[@stylerefinement]

Yes - I think facial acupuncture is more for correcting asymmetry in the muscles so if it's your bone structure then I would imagine it's not so useful! But I love hearing about you and your little girl sharing the family trait - it's beautiful! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@TheJazzy1980]

Amazing advice, as always!! I love that channels like yours and Aly Art encourage us to embrace our uniqueness. As opposed to channels like Qoves Studio, which is extremely toxic, IMO.

[@etanol.]

I think makeup can help with making your face more symmetrical, for example if you have your lips a bit tilted to one side you can put some makeup on the opposite side to make it look more even, another example is contouring your face in a way to compensate the differences between the sides. one of my eyebrows is higher than the other, so what I do is elevate the eyebrow that is lower and I try to lower the higher one, by simply brushing it. also, to look more symmetrical on photos you just have to find the right angle of your face to take pictures.

[@tanyah5467]

Brilliant video, I am learning so much from your smart and insightful content. I have assymetrical eyes, but they're also large and I have been told they are my best feature. Yet bold eye looks never suited me, and now I realise it's because it enhances the assymetry. 😮 Mind blown!! Thank you so much!!

THANK U AGAIN ❤!!! I was born with facial asymmetry thanks to the fact that I was born with a malformation in my ear on the right side, so in addition to not being able to hear there, my muscles tend to go towards my ear as well, and that is why I have facial asymmetry, I have seen other videos but most of them are for people with a lower level of asymmetry, and I have also only found that the solution is surgery, but I am not ready for that yet, so thank you very much for making this video, it has made me feel better and I didn't know about facial acupuncture, so I'll try it

[@ST52655]

My face is asymmetrical because in elementary school my nose was hit twice-once by a basketball and once by a kid who hit me in the face with his satchel full of books. For this reason, I don’t part my hair in the middle. Also, my smile is a tiny bit asymmetrical, and so are my eyebrows and eyes. My nose is also a bit prominent; not as much as some, but it’s wider at the bottom and when I smile it’s more noticeable. Thankfully it’s not long when viewed from the side and it doesn’t tip downwards. I don’t think I’m beautiful, but I think I’m attractive. My features aren’t masculine. Dressing in a feminine way, living a healthy lifestyle, and developing skills like playing the piano and singing helps me carry myself with confidence and accept my flaws.

[@florenna]

Interesting to hear that most people think their face is asymmetrical, or that people even *expect* human faces to be 100% symmetrical, as like you say, no one's is! It makes me wonder why that is, ie. why do pepole expect that..? I've come to terms with my facial asymmetry long ago, though it is very true that I don't like photos taken of me, and seeing myself in photos, most of the time. :) I do love red lips though, I don't really look alive without one :)

[@michelledubon208]

I started using a foreo bear mini 2 and although I didn't get it for that purpose, I have noticed that my pictures look so much more symmetrical now! I have a crooked nose from a childhood accident (which is also a little too large, siiiigh, so I'm super self conscious about it) I was pleasantly and happily surprised at the improved symmetry in the rest of my face! Short of surgery, can't do anything about the nose, but I like my face so much more lately. I imagine the micro current does something similar to your acupuncture. 😊

[@lw8186]

Thank you for your videos! Do you think you could please make one about highlighter placement based on facial features? I love the idea of highlighter, but I’m afraid of emphasizing the wrong parts of my face! 😅

[@nicoledijkstra7168]

I do have a little bit asymmetric eyes and but it is so slight that even I myself need to focus on it to see it. The only major asymmetry in my face that is obvious is my smile. One of the corner will get higher then the other but I love that as it is a trait passed down in my family which makes me feel unique but also fit in at the same time

Sounds like microcurrent with gua sha would help. However this does not touch on nose asymmetry. I would say possibly tanner or henna contour might create the illusion of correcting the nose and some parts of the face.

Do you part your hair so that you have less hair on side of prominent jawline so your face looks fuller like the other side or do you make sure you have more hair lying on side where you have more prominence to hide it and make other side look fuller?

[@stylerefinement]

If the goal is the lessen the prominence I would say more hair on the prominent side! But if you’re trying to accentuate the opposite it would be the other way ☺️

[@lemmings6516]

I love your videos because of the analytic thinking but tbh I don’t care about my symmetry too much. It’s a face, it’s there, no need for it to be perfect. It does what it’s supposed to do. I’m no margot robbie but I am actually happy that I don’t get too much attention for my looks, it’s more room for my personality to shine. Some of my very pretty friends are quite miserable, it had nothing to do with luck or overall quality of life

[@stylerefinement]

💯!

[@36526]

I am feeling confused about how the camera portrays people accurately. When I observe my friend in a mirror and in real life, she looks identical. Does this imply that the mirror is more precise than the camera? As various camera settings can alter a person's appearance, but the mirror always reflects the same image. Also but why is it that the mirror acts like a camera when you put both of them at a 90 degree angle to each other?

[@stylerefinement]

I think that how far of a distance the photo is taken from has a part in that!! The closer you are, the more the center of the face is more highlighted, so what you described of your friend appearing more precise in a mirror than a photo makes sense to me since when you’re looking at your friend in a mirror the distance is likely similar to if you were to face him/her and observe their face!

[@I3errylicious]

Where should the parting be? Should you cover the side with the ’bigger’ or more ’prounced features?

[@uchi3v]

hey jenn!! recently while doing my makeup i've noticed that i kinda look better with just eyeliner and no mascara, any reasons why that might happen? is it because of the deep set eyes and low brows and dark lashes just make it seem "crowded"?(which i have) it looks so undone without makeup on lashes but without it looks si much more fresh and youthful? or is it that eyes become the focal point when i add mascara with overall very delicate makeup in the face? any tips how to maintain your cheeks or skin the focal point despite eyes drawing attention? god im sorry this comment became so long hahah

[@stylerefinement]

Hi! Do you have narrow crease lines?? I find that people with narrow crease lines tend to look better without mascara because the darkness of the mascara is another factor that “crowds” the eyelid area! And if you already have dark lashes the darkness gets enhanced more with the mascara. You usually curl your lashes when wearing a mascara as well, which also closes off your crease line area more. If you want to keep your skin the focal point of your makeup but you already have dark & prominent eyes, minimal eye makeup is my recommendation! Hope that helps ❤️

[@uchi3v]

Hi Jenn! I have assymetry with my chin tilted to the left and my nose crooked pointing to the right. Do you think the side where one makes the part makes a difference in highlighting the feature that's crooked?

[@stylerefinement]

Hi! Yes I think that which side you choose to part does make a difference 😊 Since you have asymmetry in the chin and the nose on either side, which side you choose to part depends on which feature you’re okay with highlighting more!

[@justinenglish_5750]

I don't see any difference before and after the acupuncture treatment. As you said, the hair changes the face asymmetry. I see however that the lighting is different and your skin was more luminous, less tired.

[@Ladynipchick2]

Sorry Jenn, I'm being a bit slow. So the mirror is the opposite of how we look in real life, yes? But the camera - does that record a mirror image or a 'real' one? For some reason I'm never able to get my head round this!! 😮

[@heidilongman8128]

The camera is the actual symmetry, but you should keep in mind the camera can have distorting effects, especially in close up photos.

[@RandomMemePage]

Does facial acupuncture hurt? Also I have facial asymmetry in my eyes but also in other parts of my face, does acupuncture help with the eye area or would I need to get plastic surgery for that?

[@stylerefinement]

I’d say it’s not painless but definitely bearable! I do think it has more to do with the muscles of the face so not sure of the effect on the eyes - it depends on what the cause of the asymmetry for your eyes is!

[@RandomMemePage]

@@stylerefinement Okay thank you for letting me know!

I wonder how hard it has been for the celebrities to accept their asymmetrical face as they are always in the glare of camera. I rarely click pictures and has no courage to post them because how asymmetrical my face looks ij picture only to me. I had a friend i coukd never tell that his face is asymmetrical until i saw his picture in a selfie 😂. To me his face was look more asymmetrical in selfies than in back camera. I know people don't really see the asymmetry of my face but I can't unsee it. Maybe looking my. self more in pictures and less in mirror can help to accept my real face more.

[@stylerefinement]

Photos definitely highlight it more!

[@Doc2323]

Aggihh- that's why I hate the middle part on me!

[@sws2552]

which side do you recommend parting the hair on if there is asymmetry? in other words which side of the face do you recommend exposing more?

[@stylerefinement]

Hi! That would depend on your personal preference (since everyone has their favorite side) as well as your proportions. For example, for clients with long faces, if your outer fifths (the distance from the outer corner of your eye to the edge of the ear) is wider on one side, it would make sense to expose the wider side since it's more effective at adding width to the face overall. Hope that helps!

[@paperteabookflowers]

Is there a better side for the side part? For example, if one eye is lower, should the part be on that side or the other?

[@stylerefinement]

I wouldn’t say particularly to the asymmetry, but everyone has their “good” side!

[@artsyaliceyoung]

Can you cover nose asymmetry? You showed no examples of beautiful significantly asymmetrical nose or how to help balance that flaw.....makes me think that is the one thing that has no hope? Not like hair can cover the nose like it does the side of the face... Is this just a "learn to live with it" flaw?

[@stylerefinement]

Hi! The side part rule also applies to nose asymmetry because a middle part draws our gaze down the center of the face and highlights the nose area more! As with the bold lip rule as well, because a bold lip color draws attention to the lip area, if the asymmetry in your nose is prominent enough in your nose tip area as well, then the lip color would highlight it ☺️ hope that helps!

[@mizzle8]

I have uneven eyebrows (one’s higher than the other) and I feel like they’re the first thing I notice in photos 😅 I try to draw the lower one higher when I wear makeup, but any other tips on how to deal with this?

[@stylerefinement]

I wonder if it's also a muscle-related concern that's causing the unevenness! Maybe some facial exercises could help ☺

[@olihhayes]

If my asymmetry is like Rosie's would you recommend parting my hair on my 'better' side or the other? Bc i read online that it's better to part it on your droopier side but i wasn't sure to trust it😅

[@stylerefinement]

I think it depends on which side you would consider your "good" side - so part on your good side so more of that side is exposed and the other side gets covered with more hair!

[@kreator1474]

Is Facial Acupuncture better than brow lift surgery?

[@stylerefinement]

I wouldn't say one is conclusively "better" than the other! They each have pros and cons, but my reasoning for my preference towards facial acupuncture is cost, low risk (not permanent), and naturopathic, but others many disagree :)

I had a personal good laugh using photoshop to see what I would look like with making a all left side symmetrical face and a separate all right side symmetrical face and I looked like a completely different person on both experiments- and looked like a Distant relative to myself😂. I asked my husband which side he liked best and he said I am lovely as is- he mentioned he felt unsettled with the visual experiment results because they did not look like me😂 . I have a notably asymmetrical face and use subtle makeup tricks and have always had a side part to feature my more attractive side. If we were all perfectly symmetrical we would give off the Uncanny Valley vibe- Think about those early Pixars ads ( early coca cola polar bear ads) where the symmetrically drawn animals looked really creepy (*uncanny valley) Since those ads if you notice the Pixars have asymmetry to give a human feel to the characters they create.
