Different Types of Smiles According to the Shapes of Your Lip
The Closed-Lip Smile
You can get a clear image of this smile just from its name alone: lips are closed, and teeth aren't visible. If by all means you encounter anyone smiling at you this way, trust me that he or she is hiding something! It's no wonder politicians use this one all the time...
The Lopsided Smile
The lopsided smile, aka the twisted smile, is when one side of someone's mouth goes upwards, while the other side goes down. It usually represents a state of mixed emotions. While the ''down'' side might signal that a negative outcome for you is in the making, the ''up'' side cancels it out with its more positive point of view. Phew! Looks like you're in the clear after all!
The Forced Smile
The most unnatural among different types of smiles, the forced smile, accompanied with full-on grin and soulless eyes, gives the feeling that the person using it isn't very interested in what you are saying. All those friendships are destroyed with this smile!
The Genuine Smile
Enough with the moody smiles! This one is the best and most joyful of all! You don't have to work for it, it comes naturally; and when it does, you start grinning from ear to ear, your eyes start sparkling and your whole face lights up. So viva la genuine smile!
The Sneer Smile
This typical
sarcastic smile is the one where corners of the mouth start going in the
direction of ears, thus making so-called sneering dimples. The person who
sneers rarely has respect or empathy towards anyone, so it's no surprise that
it is mostly common among criminals and psychiatric patients.
The Smug Smile
Here's one you definitely know! Pressed together lips with a slightly raised side. Get the picture? And while being one of the most favorite smiles to wear, it also has a wide range of meanings. It could be a sign of arrogance, satisfaction, and could even be used while flirting.
Open Mouth Smile
Another one
of different types of smiles, the open mouth smile is somewhat like a frozen
laugh. It is not very good to wear on an everyday basis since it doesn't look
natural, but it's great for pictures. It radiates happiness, and will make all
of your selfies pop!
Flirtatious Smile
This one is
similar to the smug smile, and as the name says, its prime role is flirting. It
is considered to be incredibly mysterious, sexy and inviting, particularly in
women who tend to make it even more attractive by biting and licking their
lips.
The Botox Smile
When you are tired, but feel the need to smile, you might carry on a Botox smile and it looks like you have just been injected with Botox. Having said that, it isn't surprising that this smile carries the same name, due to the rigidness and expressionless face it leaves.
