如何微笑最美顏？（雙語(yǔ)）

　　1. Practice smiling a lot.

　　多多練習(xí)微笑

　　Have you ever heard of an "easy smile"? People with easy smiles break into a grin effortlessly, and it usually makes those around them feel happy. When you practice a lot, smiling will become easier, and you'll look less strained when you do it. Practice what you feel to be your most attractive smile. Soon your confidence in your smile will increase, and you'll start flashing it without thinking.

　　· Look at photos of yourself smiling in different ways. Do you like your smile best when your mouth is closed? Or do you like it open? Check it out from different angles. Which smiles and poses make your face light up the most? Which smile displays your other features to their best possible advantage? Which smile comes across as the most natural, the most "you"? Figure out which smile you like best, then practice in front of a mirror until you get it just right. Pay attention to how that great smile feels, so that you'll be able to replicate it without looking in a mirror.

　　· Practice smiling at random strangers. Simply make brief eye contact with a person and smile. As you do so, think happy thoughts. Not everyone will smile back, but note how you feel when they do!

 

　　2. Smile with your eyes.

　　用眼睛微笑

　　A wholehearted smile will naturally draw in the eyes. This natural smile is called a Duchenne smile. It's not something you can fake; when you're forced to smile for photos, your eyes don't smile. It's only when you truly feel like smiling that you flash a Duchenne. The eyes are essential for a genuine, warm smile.

　　· To get a feel for how to make your eyes smile, stand in front of a mirror and practice smiling, but concentrate only on your eyes. You may find it helpful to cover the lower part of your face with a piece of paper. Play around with it a bit, and you'll find that you can make your mouth smile when your eyes aren't smiling, and you can also smile only with your eyes.

　　· When your eyes do smile, remember how it feels, which muscles are working and how. With practice, you may discover how to smile with your eyes at will by relying on your feelings and muscle memory.

 

　　3. Maintain good oral hygiene.

　　保持良好的口腔衛(wèi)生

　　One thing that can cause you to fear smiling is the worry that there is something stuck between your teeth, or that you have bad breath. Eliminate these sources of worry by taking active steps to keep your mouth fresh and clean.

　　· Brush your teeth and tongue regularly, carry floss with you wherever you go so that you can clean up after dining, and have breath freshener on you at all times (natural or commercial).

　　· See your dentist regularly for teeth check-ups and cleaning, as well as discussing options for teeth straightening or other treatments if this is a concern for you. When you smile people will inevitably look at your mouth, so following these considerations will help you make a better impression, and, more importantly, a healthy mouth will make you feel more confident about smiling.

　　· If your teeth are stained, consider your lifestyle habits that bring this about and try to minimize the impacts of such habits as smoking or drinking too much red wine, coffee, soft drinks, etc. You can also get them whitened if that will improve your confidence.

　　· Keep your lips in great shape to prevent chapping.

　　· Deal with bad breath. If it's surface, cleaning and fresheners should be adequate. If these do not work, it may be a sign of an underlying health problem, so see your doctor for advice.

 

　　4. Make your smile genuine.

　　要發(fā)自內(nèi)心的微笑

　　While it is perfectly possible to crack a smile when you feel terrible, angry, annoyed, or you're up to something nefarious, smiling under these circumstances will make people wary of you. A genuine smile is much harder to fake. A genuine smile is detectable by others because it is accompanied by a general glow, smiling eyes where the outer corners crinkle and the lower lid tightens, and a reassuring demeanor that helps the viewer to feel more at ease in your presence. Here's how to smile more genuinely:

　　· Don't smile when you just aren't feeling it. It will give others the impression that you can't be trusted. It's ok not to smile all day long.

　　· Remember how it feels when you do crack a genuine smile. Try to regain that feeling each time you smile.

 

　　5. Smile when you feel good.

　　狀態(tài)不錯(cuò)的時(shí)候要微笑

　　A genuine smile comes from being happy, positive, and from drawing your feelings from the heart. Be happy that things are going well for the person you're talking to, that someone's joke is funny, that the sun is out, or that you're about to eat your favorite food. There are lots of reasons to be happy, and to smile!

　　· Even when you aren't feeling cheerful, you can still find reasons to smile. Focus on the positive things that are going on in your life. Your mood will lift and it will feel easier to smile.

　　· When you're confronted by a person or situation that makes you feel ambivalent and you're oscillating between being solemn or smiling, err on the side of smiling – find one single thing in your heart that is positive about the person or situation before you, and use that to create your smile.

 

　　6. Smile out of love.

　　無(wú)愛(ài)的時(shí)刻也要微笑

　　Think about someone you care about (perhaps the person standing in front of you as you smile), or about something that you genuinely love to do. It's much easier to produce friendly, easygoing, genuine smiles when you love what you do, when you love the people around you, and when you love humanity in general. Be grateful for all that you have and you'll find smiles come far more naturally.

 

　　7. Smile when you're feeling playful.

　　感覺(jué)好玩的時(shí)候要微笑

　　Intense times can make us too serious. See life as an adventure, be gentle on yourself and allow your inner child to play. Being playful will bring a smile to your face much more easily.
