“A smile is happiness you'll find right under your nose.” (Tom Wilson)
Just like the
other features of your face your nose has an important role to play in deciding
how attractive you look. You may have big eyes, high cheekbones, and lovely
lips, but if your nose does not complement the other features then it can have
a big impact on the way you look.
Some of the most common nose types are
characterized by the shape of the nasal bones, the size of the nasal cavity and
the amount of cartilage. Every day,
you come across so many people with different types of noses. Do you know what the
6 most popular types of noses and their meanings?
Aquiline nose:
The aquiline nose is one that has a predominant straight bridge that may be
slightly bent toward the end. It is also known as a Roman nose. This word is
derived from the Latin term “aquilinis” meaning eagle-like. Whoever has this
kind of nose is considered to have good leadership qualities. They make their
own way as they move forward in life. These types of people have great
organizational skills, are known to motivate others, and are believed to be
less aggressive.
Celestial nose: The celestial nose, also referred to as the
“turned up nose,” is relatively petite with a slightly protruding tip. Another
standout feature of the celestial nose is a slight dent at the middle of the
bridge. Those who have a Celestial nose are said to be great optimists, have a
sound personality, and kind demeanor. They always are warm and loving to others,
and are comforting to be around.
Greek nose:
The Greek nose is widely regarded as one of the most aesthetically appealing
nose types. This is because it is perfectly straight from bridge to tip
offering a beautiful profile. The Greek nose, or straight nose, is often seen
on ancient sculptures and art. Those who have a Greek nose are known to be very
intelligent, and helpful. They are logical disciplinarians. This helps them
succeed in life.
Hawk nose:
A hawk nose is long and narrow with a bridge that curves downward much like the
beak of a hawk. This nose type is found in less than 5 percent of the
population. People with this type of nose are never afraid to stand out in the
crowd. It is not easy to influence them. They do not depend on the approval of
others in their lives. They live life on their own terms by fulfilling their own
dreams.
Nubian nose:
The Nubian nose tends to be characterized by a wider base, more prominent
nostrils, and a flatter nasal bridge. Individuals with Nubian noses are said to
be creative, charismatic, expressive, and
curious. They have an unquenchable curiosity and the ability to approach
situations in many different ways.
Snub nose:
The snub nose is small, cute, and upturned at the tip much like the celestial
nose. The only difference is that more of the nostrils are visible when viewed
from the front. People with this type of nose are said to look like a snob. They
are generally adorable and immature.

nowhere else. So may I ask why you keep trying to put it into my business?” (TheBestStatus.com) [i]
