Gestures & Facial Expressions

Gestures & FacialExpressions

A gesture is a form of non-verbal communication or non-vocal communication in which visible bodily actions communicate particular messages, either in place of, or in conjunction with, speech. Gestures include movement of the hands, face, or other parts of the body.

·         Lowering one’s head can be a signal of lack of confidence however if someone lowers their head when complimented, they may be shy or timid.

·         Touching or tucking at one’s ear can indicate indecisiveness.

·         Sincere smiles incorporate the whole face (noticeable in the eyes).

·         A false smile may just engage the lips.

·         Tilting one’s head can symbolize interest in some thing or someone.

·         Over tilted head can be a sign of sympathy

·         Closing of eye or pinching at one’s nose is often done when making a negative evaluation

·         When a listener nods this is usually a positive message and indicates that they are attentive, interested and listening carefully.

·         Excessive nodding can imply that the listener has lost interest but doesn’t want to be rude.

·         Touching one’s nose can indicate doubtfulness or rejection of an idea.

·         Resting a hand on one’s cheek is often done if they are thinking.

What is posture?

What is posture?

Posture is the position in which we hold our bodies while standing, sitting, or lying down. Good posture is the correct alignment of body parts supported by the right amount of muscle tension against gravity. Without posture and the muscles that control it, we would simply fall to the ground.

Normally, we do not consciously maintain normal posture. Instead, certain muscles do it for us, and we don't even have to think about it. Several muscle groups, including the hamstrings and large back muscles, are critically important in maintaining good posture. While the ligaments help to hold the skeleton together, these postural muscles, when functioning properly, prevent the forces of gravity from pushing us over forward. Postural muscles also maintain our posture and balance during movement. 

Why is good posture important?

Good posture helps us stand, walk, sit, and lie in positionsthat place the least strain on supporting muscles and ligaments during movement and weight-bearing activities. 

Correct posture: 

Helps us keep bones and joints in correct alignment so that our muscles are used correctly, decreasing the abnormal wearing of joint surfaces that could result in degenerative arthritis and joint pain.

Reduces the stress on the ligaments holding the spinal joints together, minimising the likelihood of injury.

Allows muscles to work more efficiently, allowing the body to use less energy and, therefore, preventing muscle fatigue.

Helps prevent muscle strain, overuse disorders, and even back and muscular pain.

To maintain proper posture, you need to have adequate muscle flexibility and strength, normal joint motion in the spine and other body regions, as well as efficient postural muscles that are balanced on both sides of the spine. In addition, you must recognise your postural habits at home and in the workplace and work to correct them, if necessary.

Consequences of poor posture

Poor posture can lead to excessive strain on our postural muscles and may even cause them to relax, when held in certain positions for long periods of time. For example, you can typically see this in people who bend forward at the waist for a prolonged time in the workplace. Their postural muscles are more prone to injury and back pain.

Several factors contribute to poor posture--most commonly, stress, obesity, pregnancy, weak postural muscles, abnormally tight muscles, and high-heeled shoes.  In addition, decreased flexibility, a poor work environment, incorrect working posture, and unhealthy sitting and standing habits can also contribute to poor body positioning.

Can I correct my posture?

In a word, yes. Remember, however, that long-standing postural problems will typically take longer to address than short-lived ones, as often the joints have adapted to your long-standing poor posture. Conscious awareness of your own posture and knowing what posture is correct will help you consciously correct yourself. With much practice, the correct posture for standing, sitting, and lying down will gradually replace your old posture. This, in turn, will help you move toward a better and healthier body position.

We at Gracious Avatar help you to rectify you posture and you will learn the correct way of sitting, standing and walking.

The same shall be an add on to your personality and will make an everlasting effect in your life.

Our experienced and trained trainers will guide you and assist you to rectify you posture and body language .

This article is about Cosmetics & make-up

This article is about Cosmetics & make-up

Women wear several forms of cosmetics, Common make-up items or cosmetics include: lipstick, mascara, eye shadow, foundation. Whereas other common cosmetics can include skin cleansers and body lotions, shampoo and conditioner, hair styling products  (gel, hair spray, etc.) deodorant, perfume ,cologne  .

What are Cosmetics? They are products used to enhance or modify the appearance of the face or texture of the body.

Many cosmetics are designed for application on the face, hair, and body. They are generally mixtures of chemicals some being derived from natural sources and some being synthetics or artificial.  Cosmetics applied to the face to enhance its appearance are often called makeup.

Most cosmetics are distinguished by the area of the body intended for application.

Primer comes in formulas to suit individual skin conditions. Most are meant to reduce the appearance of pore size, prolong the wear of makeup, and allow for a smoother application of makeup. Primers are applied before foundation or eye-shadows depending on where the primer is to be applied.

Lipstick, lip gloss, lip liner, lip plumper, lip balm, lip stain, lip conditioner, lip primer, lip boosters, and lip butters. Lipsticks are intended to add color and texture to the lips and often come in a wide range of colors, as well as finishes such as matte, satin. Lip stains have a water or gel base. Usually designed to be waterproof, the product may come with an applicator brush, roller ball, or could be applied with a finger. Lip glosses are intended to add shine to the lips and may add a tint of colour, as well as being scented or flavoured for a pop of fun. Lip balms are most often used to moisturise, tint, and protect the lips. 

     Concealer covers imperfections of the skin. Concealer is often used for any extra coverage needed to cover acne/pimple blemishes, under eye circles, and other imperfections. Concealer is often thicker and more solid than foundation, and provides longer lasting more detailed coverage as well as creating a fresh clean base for all the rest of the makeup.

 Some formulations are intended only for the eye or only for the face. This product can also be used for contouring the face like ones nose, cheekbones, and jaw line to add a more defined look to the total face.

·     Foundation is used to smooth out the face by covering spots, acne, blemishes, or

uneven skin tone. These are sold in a liquid, cream, or powder, or more recently in a mousse. Foundation provides sheer, matte, dewy or full coverage. Foundation primer is applied before foundation to fill out pores, create a dewy look or create a smoother finish. They usually come in cream formulas to be applied before foundation as a base.

·         Face powder sets the foundation and under eye concealer, giving it a matte finish while also concealing small flaws or blemishes. It can also be used to bake the foundation, so that it stays on longer. Tinted face powders may be worn alone as a light foundation so that the full face does not look as caked-up as it could.

·         Rouge, blush, or blusher is cheek coloring to bring out the color in the cheeks and make the cheekbones appear more defined. Rouge comes in powder, cream, and liquid forms. Different blush colors are used to compliment different skin tones.

·         Highlight, used to draw attention to the high points of the face as well as to add glow; comes in liquid, cream, and powder forms. It often contains a substance to provide shimmer. Alternatively, a lighter-toned foundation/concealer can be used.

·        Bronzer  gives skin a bit of color by adding a golden or bronze glow and highlighting the cheekbones, as well as being used for contouring. Bronzer is considered to be more of a natural look and can be used for an everyday wear. Bronzer enhances the color of the face while adding more of a shimmery look. It comes in either matte, semi matte/satin, or shimmer finishes.

·         Mascara is used to darken, lengthen, thicken, or draw attention to the eyelashes. It is available in various colors. Some mascaras include glitter flecks. There are many formulas, including waterproof versions .

·         Eye shadow is a pigmented powder/cream or substance used to accentuate the eye area, traditionally on, above, and under the eyelids. Many colors may be used at once and blended together to create different effects. This is conventionally applied with a range of eye shadow brushes, though it isn't uncommon for alternative methods of application to be used.

·         Eye liner is used to enhance and elongate the apparent size or depth of the eye. For example, white eyeliner on the waterline and inner corners of the eye makes the eyes look bigger and more awake. It can come in the form of a pencil, a gel, or a liquid and can be found in almost any color.

·         Eyebrow pencils, creams, waxes, gels, and powders are used to color, fill in, and define the brows.

·         Nail polish is used to color the fingernails and toenails. Transparent, colorless versions may strengthen nails or be used as a top or base coat to protect the nail or polish.

·         Setting spray is used as the last step in the process of applying makeup. It keeps applied makeup intact for long periods. An addition to setting spray is setting powder, which may be either pigmented or translucent. Both of these products claim to keep makeup from absorbing into the skin or melting off.

·         Contouring is designed to give shape to an area of the face. The aim is to enhance the natural shading on the face to give the illusion of a more defined facial structure which can be altered to preference. Brighter skin colored makeup products are used to 'highlight' areas which are wanted to draw attention to or to be caught in the light, whereas darker shades are used to create a shadow. These light and dark tones are blended on the skin to create the illusion of a more definite face shape. It can be achieved using a "contour palette" - which can be either cream or powder.

Makeupremover is a product used to remove the makeup products applied on the skin. It cleans the skin before other procedures, like applying bedtime lotion. Micellar waters are becoming a more common product used to remove makeup. It acts as a two-in-one by removing the makeup and cleansing the skin.

Importance of grooming

Importance of grooming

Grooming and professional appearance are important to gain not just positive impression but also respect in the workplace. First impressions matters a lots and the way you look and carry yourself create an impact on people you get along with in the work setting. Proper grooming and professional appearance is important to both men and women. Lack of these may lead to poor image and may interfere with your chance of getting good impression and positive feedback from your workmates and superiors.

As an individual living and working in a highly complex and modest society, you must recognise and understand the impact of your appearance as it communicates first to you and then to others. While it is important to like what you wear and the way you look, it is more important to understand why or why not and specifically how this affects you, others and your life and the achievement of your goals.

Personal hygiene involves those practices performed by an individual to take care for one's bodily health and well-being, through cleanliness. Personal grooming is the art of cleaning, grooming, and maintaining parts of the body.

We at Gracious Avatar will help you to learn how to self-groom yourself and create an everlasting impression.
