Having a resting bitch face and being constantly perceived as moody is super annoying.
Just like the features that create resting face, there are all sorts of slight variations in your face that send strong messages to the people you interact with.
Here are four simple tricks to stop suffering from it.
- When you are looking at someone, look up at them. This makes your eyes more open and less downcast.
- Use makeup to reshape your downcast eyes. For downcast eyes, women can use eyeliner and shadow to draw more attention to their upper eyes to make them appear more open.
- Replace your neutral frown with a small smile. If you have a naturally downcast mouth, slightly holding your cheeks up — it doesn’t have to be all the way into a smile — you can eliminate the appearance that you are frowning.
- Own it. You are under no obligation to change your resting bitch face. It’s a part of who you are and if you choose to embrace it, you can ensure the people who hang around you judge you based on your words and actions and not something as superficial as your resting face.
