How to Make a Big Nose Look Smaller
Feeling concerned about the size or shape of your nose is a common problem that may seem impossible to fix. Surgery is an expensive and permanent option, but there are other tips and tricks to help you to draw attention away from your nose. Have confidence in yourself. Being self-assured that you are beautiful as you are is the best way to appear attractive, regardless of your natural features.
Prevent oily skin. (Gender non-specific tip)
The shine of oil is reflective under bright lights or when a camera flashes, making the nose seem larger than it actually is. One way to treat this is to use special facial cleansers that are designed to reduce shine. Be careful not to over-wash your face as stripping the oils can lead your body to produce still more.
- Use finishing powder and reapply throughout the day to reduce shine.
- Blotting paper, which can be found in most supermarkets or drug stores, absorbs oil. Dab your face with these small tissues throughout the day to remove excess oil.
- Use creams that help to regulate oil production and tighen pores. They will certain help to give a more mattifying look.
Draw attention to your eyes (tip for woman)
The eyes are often the first thing people will notice about you, particularly if you accentuate them carefully. If you are a beginner at using makeup, start by choosing eyeshadow that is close to your skin tone or that is the same color range as your eyes. Begin with a natural look and gradually experiment with edgier styles to see what is flattering and helps you to feel confident. Mascara is also a good product to start with for beginners.
- Use liner to create a cat eye or to add the illusion of longer lashes.
- Keep your makeup appropriate to the occasion. Smokey or sparkling styles may be beautiful for an evening out but look strange or out of place in the office.
- Shape your eyebrows to frame your face in a flattering way, neither too thick nor too thin.
Experiment with different lip colors and glosses. This gives you control over which of your features is most dramatic and eye-catching if you are self-conscious about your nose. Avoid lip-liner as this may look too harsh and make your other features seem correspondingly prominent.
- Be careful using both bold lip color and dramatic eye shadow at the same time. It can work and be beautiful, but in some cases you simply look like you wear too much makeup. Ask a friend whose look you admire to be honest with you about your appearance.
Parting your hair on the side, whether you are a woman or a man, can draw attention away from the center of your face and minimize a large nose. Sweep your bangs to the side rather than adopting a blunt style that covers your eyes and draws attention to your nose. A hairdresser can help you decide on long-term styling solutions.
- Pixie cuts and other short styles tend to accentuate your facial features.
- Longer hair offers more options for styling. Layers will provide body that that will draw attention away from your nose.
Use rollers or a curling iron to add soft curls that will balance distinctive features. Volumizing products like shampoos or mousse can add lift from your scalp. If your hair is naturally curly or wavy, embrace it and avoid straightening or pulling it back into a severe style.
- Blowdry your hair upside-down, focusing particularly on the roots to add lift.
- Be cautious about teasing or back-combing your hair. This can cause damage or be difficult to untangle later.
