This is what your eye shape reveals about your personality

Eyes are probably the first noticeable feature when you meet someone. I mean, it takes eyes to see eyes, and thus, the other person. This is even backed by science.

According to a study conducted by psychologist Daniel Gill from the University of Winchester, both men and women view the eyes as the most important facial feature. They let you see what is happening around you, by sending your brain signals and interpreting different situations. Apart from that, the slightest change in your mood is reflected in the eyes, so no wonder the saying goes eyes are windows to the soul. With this being said, you can tell a lot about a person based on their eyes.

Almond-shaped eyes

You are a calm and composed person who remains graceful during situations of high distress. You desire a drama-free and prosperous life.

Down-turned eyes

Your middle name is loyalty. Although you tend to be shy and introverted, you would never turn your back on your friends. One of your downsides, however, is that you are not known for your optimism.

Round-shaped eyes

You are an extroverted and creative person who loves to be surrounded by people. However, your imagination sometimes runs wild and leads you to impractical and intrusive thoughts.

Hooded eyes

You are not exactly a social butterfly and would rather spend your weekend reading a book or cleaning your room than going out. Your attention to detail is impeccable and you are very goal-oriented (it’s giving Virgo btw).

Large eyes

You wear your heart on your sleeve and you are not afraid of that. Golden retriever energy 10/10.

Small eyes

You do not wear your heart on your sleeve at all. In fact, you are very calculating of your emotions but that shows a high sense of emotional intelligence.

Cat eyes

Nothing gets in between you and your goal. You are optimistic, fun, and sassy.

Downward eyes

Your family and friends are your support system as you tend to be on the shy side. You care a lot about people, and you probably have the same best friend since kindergarten.
