What Actually Makes You Attractive? | Oestrogen Expert Dr Sarah Hill



How to tell if you're actually attractive?

You know you're attractive if people smile, make prolonged eye contact (then look away), gravitate towards you in groups, offer help easily, act nervous or fidgety around you, and give sincere compliments, especially for things you don't notice. Other signs include high social media engagement and surprise when you're self-critical, as others often see you as confident and charming.
 

Is a mirror how others see you?

No, a mirror doesn't show you exactly how people see you; it shows a reversed (flipped) image, while others see your non-reversed, "true" image, which is closer to what a normal photo shows, though cameras add their own distortions. Because you're used to your reversed mirror image, the un-reversed version (what others see) often looks strange to you, leading to the common feeling that you look better in mirrors than in photos.

They prefer quick, low-maintenance styles or artistic expression over the full-glam looks often marketed to older generations, valuing effortless enhancement and individuality.

How do I test if I am attractive?

Knowing your attractiveness involves observing social cues (compliments, attention, people wanting to be near you), assessing your self-care and presentation (hygiene, fit clothes, grooming), and understanding that it's a mix of subjective traits (personality, confidence, vibe) and objective features (symmetry, proportions) that can be enhanced by kindness and self-improvement. Asking trusted friends for honest feedback or using objective tests can also help gauge perceptions, but remember attractiveness is highly personal and changes with inner qualities like confidence and character.

While many studies point to overestimating attractiveness, factors like low self-esteem can make people focus on perceived imperfections, leading to self-criticism.

Are pictures 100% accurate?

No, pictures are not 100% accurate because of factors like lens distortion, lighting, camera settings, and post-processing, which alter how subjects appear in 2D compared to real life, often distorting features, colors, and depth perception. While a photo captures a moment, it's a subjective interpretation, not a perfect replica of reality, as different equipment and choices (like focal length or filters) change the final image. 

Should I trust a mirror or camera?
