Have A Good Sense Of Humor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Life is filled with ups and downs, so taking life too seriously is undoubtedly not the way to go. This is why a sense of humor is a vital skill capable of bringing people together and strengthening their bonds. It’s practically guaranteed that if you ask anyone what’s the most important quality that they look for in a potential partner, their answer, 99% of the time, will be that they look for someone with a great sense of humor that can make them laugh when life gets too tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a sense of humor is excellent most of the time, but one thing to always keep in mind is that there’s a fine line between being funny and having an offensive sense of humor. Humorous people know when to joke and when to keep those jokes to themselves. Offending everyone around for the sake of being funny is not a very attractive look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hang out with attractive people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This next tip focuses more on who you hang out with instead of tips that can boost your confidence level. It might seem common sense to think that hanging out with people less attractive than you will guarantee to make other people see you as more attractive in comparison. In reality, it’s the complete opposite of that. In fact, it’s a phenomenon that science has named the cheerleader effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two psychologists by the name of Drew Walker and Edward Vul coined this phenomenon after conducting an experiment that involved 100 individuals. They showed their individual photos to participants and asked them to rate these photos before showing them pictures of the same individuals, but this time, in group pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The individuals in group pictures received a much higher score than in their solo photos. This happens because our brains average out all the faces in a group, making less attractive group members appear more attractive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stop Complaining<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes life indeed gets all too difficult, and all you want to do is complain about it–which is entirely understandable. But, complaining frequently is an unattractive trait, and it gets to the point where it’s exhausting to be around people who complain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More often than not, people who complain don’t want to hear other people’s solutions; they want to complain for the sake of it. Not only is complaining considered unattractive, but it also tends to attract more things to complain about, and you will be stuck in a cycle that never ends. Additionally, people don’t like to be around others who foster a negative attitude all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wear makeup — but not too much<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While makeup is a powerful tool that can enhance your beauty, some women tend to overdo it. According to a study, women who wear a more natural look with minimal makeup are more attractive than women who wear dramatic makeup looks with bold and bright colors. Before you apply layers of makeup, find out what works best for you–and most importantly, do what makes you feel confident and sexy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ditch Your Reading Glasses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s no denying that there are things besides appearance that would make a person more attractive. However, according to science, you can change the way people see you by doing something as simple as ditching your reading glasses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A German study took place in 2011 where a scientist connected the missing link between attractiveness and reading glasses. He studied three groups of people; people who don\u2019t wear glasses, people who wear thick-framed glasses, and people who wear frameless glasses–and the results were downright shocking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Individuals who wore thick-framed glasses were thought of as successful and smart people. But, these individuals weren’t seen as trustworthy, likable, nor attractive. As for people with frameless glasses, their likeability score was much higher than the former, but they weren’t also seen as attractive. People who didn’t wear any glasses are the ones who ticked the boxes of attractiveness and the most likable out of the bunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smile More, Or Not At All<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Smiling is something that’s considered a secret weapon that you can use to your advantage. Yet, there isn’t enough stress about how smiling makes a real difference in attractiveness. Just like the previous tip, this one has also got scientific research that backs it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The researchers took photos of people displaying different emotions and asked participants to rate the people in the pictures in terms of attractiveness. Interestingly enough, they rated women who had a smile on their face the highest. But, as for men, the results took more of a shocking turn. They rated men who looked brooding or had a gloomy expression plastered on their faces the highest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t Be Close-Minded<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Being close-minded isn’t just about not accepting others’ differences; it’s more about thinking that your thoughts and opinions are more valid while others’ views are not as important as yours. It’s fair to say that being close-minded is one of the most unattractive traits that a person can possess. To put things into perspective, imagine if you were giving your loved one a piece of advice, pouring your heart and soul into words only to have them shrug off your opinion and walk away as if your advice didn’t matter. It feels terrible, doesn’t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is precisely why being close-minded is a huge turn-off. On the other hand, being open-minded can and will make you more attractive. To be open-minded is to leave judgment and prejudice on the side and accept everyone for who they are–and to reach that level of wisdom takes a person who’s got a good head on their shoulders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
