Hi lovelies,
The nose is one of our most distinctive features. The side profile, the front, and the various other angles that our face can be seen from will almost always draw attention to the nose. Someone’s nose can be iconic and remind us of them, even if we can’t see them clearly. If you saw an image of a blurry side profile of Einstein, chances are you’d recognize him just because of his fleshy nose. Many of us don’t like our nose. It may be because of its size, shape, or features. However, we should drop this attitude because there are only one of our noses in the world and we should learn to love it, not disdain it.
Common beauty standard
If you’re into beauty magazines like Vogue, you’ll know that there seems to be a beauty standard that is forced onto society. The nose is a particularly hot topic because different people from different backgrounds are predisposed to having a certain nose type. If the beauty ‘standard’ is not their type of nose, it brings into question whether they are being left out or considered to be less beautiful. However, you should never ever allow a magazine to dictate what beauty standard you should follow. There is no standard of beauty, and there never has been or will be. Thankfully, modern women are shutting out beauty magazine editors’ opinions and doing their own thing.
Breathing easy
If you don’t like your nose, it may not be down to beauty. It might just be because of the basic function it is supposed to do, it doesn’t do well. Nose breathing problems are usually associated with a deviated septum. This is mostly genetic but it can be due to injury. The septum that provides the support for your nose has been bent one way or perhaps two ways. It limits the quantity of air entering into the nose and this can cause a feeling of breathlessness and annoyance. But, there is always rhinoplasty. What is rhinoplasty you ask? It's a very simple procedure whereby a little bit of the septum is cut out, so it can straighten and thus allow you to breathe easily. Your nose shape will not change if you don’t want it to.
Make it unique
The nose provides plenty of real estate for you to make it unique. Nose piercings can be a great expression of your personality and style. A precious stone can be quite an alluring fashion statement. Ruby, emerald or gold studs can actually make your nose a focal point. It can also be used to match your earrings and or necklace. So if you have ruby stones in your earrings, a ruby nose piercing would be a great way to have flow and continuity in your outfit.
Women should not have their hands bound by whatever beauty standards are fashionable to magazine editors. Learn to love your nose and who you are. Use it to your advantage by adding some glam to it and be proud of your side profile.
