- Hello ladies! People often struggle to see the difference between gamine and ingenue features.This is because many faces that have one tend to have the other, but this isn't always the case and there is a difference between them and their lines.

yes!
Thank you for incorporating more Black and people of color in your videos. Can you please talk about larger features? Most Black and people of color have wider/broader noses and lips. It's harder to classify us. 😊
They are still proportional to your face though, so the same would apply to you.
Yes thank you Ellie
I heard somewhere that when words like “small” or “delicate” are used, it’s meant are your features small / delicate for your ethnicity (same with light / dark in the seasonal color analysis). Hope that helps!
I’m Black and did a consult with her. She typed me as dramatic with ingenue essence. I think it is all relative
It doesn’t matter, it’s all relative to what is the norm for the particular race one finds themselves born in.
You NEED to make a video discussing what different combos of essences can look like‼️ maybe even create a whole table showcasing this, which could definitely help me find what combination of essences my face has🙏🏼🙏🏼
I want to see more of these as well. What does it look like when you combine natural, gamine and ethereal? Or dramatic, natural and ingenue
I think I’m strangely mixed with Gamine and Ingenue. People have told me I have a baby face and are shocked at my age, and yet my sister always thought I looked like a fairy. My clothing choices have always steered towards the frilly Ingenue style.
I'm exactly the same! I have a very pointy nose, but the rest of my face is quite soft and little. I've been called a pixie face, but I also look much younger than my age and people are always shocked when they discover how old I am. My body type is a little more classic though, so I tend to wear a combination of soft classic/gamine styles and that works really well on me - too many frills and patterns and I get lost, too much structure and I get lost as well.
@@zoejune9360 Me too! Almost all my features seem to have a mix of both, like how my eyes are big and very round but they come to a very sharp point at the tear duct.
Finding a style for this mixed essence is hard, but like you I also find myself gravitating towards classic and vintage styles, anywhere from 1920s-1950s. Strangely I don't feel myself in most clothing dated after the 1950s, except for bright denim shorts and compact fitted tops! Usually I find that the best combination for me is a gamine silhouette with ingenue details. Like a compact, boyish top with lace trim
@@nae_to_cleasadair I like that idea! They do look playful
@@nae_to_cleasadairingenues can have some angular features. Is not 100% round.
my biggest and most persistent insecurity is looking like a boy. i was definitely the “you look just like your father” daughter. I spent my teen years begging people to validate me and tell me that i looked girly and feminine. so realizing that my dominant essence is gamine is… well, let’s just say character development 😅. i know hating your essence is pointless, but i can’t help but want to cry about it 🙃.
In your thumbnail, you look like Lupita Nyong'o and she does not look like a boy. :)
you look beautiful, feminine, and playful based on ur profile picture, so i don’t think you have anything to worry about (: (tho i have the same worries from being tall/similar childhood experiences, so i definitely get how you feel)
Same 😢 trying too hard to look more soft. But failed
I agree with the others. Your profile picture is absolutely stunning, definitely feminine and GLOWING! I can see that you have a fun and energetic personality shining through your features
Ayo we have the same problem 😂 Every colleague my parents have always tells me I look like my Dad with long hair 😂 But what I did was just educate myself on my facial features and body type and play around with makeup and dresses.
i think the main thing i’ve taken away from ingenue essence is embracing details with some femininity ! it doesn’t mean i have to wear fussy clothes but i like to knit and it would translate to choosing patterns with more lace or flower like motifs or lighter weight yarn… i think the feeling of looking like i’m wearing a costume is a definite fear but it’s just about not going for all the recommendations at one time…
With ingenue essence, I find that one small detail to include to bring out those features is taking a basic (like a white collared shirt) and choosing one with small ruffles on the color, or delicate embroidered details
yes! or instead of a plain tank top or t shirt, one with a lace trim or a bow on the neckline :)
The "low forehead" bit for the gamine face caught me by surprise. I'm someone who (might) have gamine essence, e.g., larger eyes, more yang, etc., and one of the facial features I've ALWAYS hated was my forehead. It's on the lower end of average size.
This makes me feel better because I think I have ingenue essence and blazer’s always just seem off for me -Especially oversized ones- even though they’re trendy
try going for a more tailored one that comes in at the waist! I thought blazers didn't fit me too but it depends on the cut and style.
I’m exactly the same! Years and years of trying to wear blazers and they always look off- love them on other people but not myself.
@@catd8929 thanks! I could see that too, I think
I need one that works with my silhouette since I’m curvier
try soft cardigans instead if you like them ! u can get them all the way oversized, or even go for a crop or more of a shrug, whatever you like best. (: but the soft/drapey knits of a cardigan tend to be much more flattering i’ve noticed (for me personally, having them a bit off the shoulders or at the tips of my shoulders is the most flattering, but that’s probably because i’m a soft natural body type) a lot of mainstream trends are popularized by supermodels or influencers who have very straight and sharp/dramatic bodies, so i’ve noticed they don’t suit me and my softer shapes most of the time.
Oh my god THANK YOU for pointing out Susan Sarandons essence! I looked her up and I've never seen someone with a face so similar to mine! I was thinking I might have gamine and dramatic essence but I was so unsure, so that made me feel more confident in my analysis of myself! Now I just need to figure out how to marry those together in my style and incorporate my soft dramatic frame 😅 I'm really struggling to find a way to honour my gamine essence without having those elements look too small or childish on my dramatic frame
I have an SD Kibbe type, and RGI essence, so I feel you! I I went with just G or I, it wouldn't work with my body.
I think another way (to start) to find your essence is paying attention to how people are you.
Ex) Inguenue- People tend to "baby" you or treat you innocently
Ethereal- People ask you for advice a lot (you have a wise or knowing feel about you)
Natural- People find you very approachable and friendly
what about gamine, romantic and dramatic
@@naomia472I think gamine’s people will find you a fun person to hang out with, to be playful. Romantic I think they will tend to flirt with you, maybe believing that you are flirting with them. And dramatic I think people will probably have high expectations on you and think of you when deciding who should be the leader. Just my opinion. What do you think?
@@eusounadja5738 I agree. What do you think about classic?
@@naomia472 maybe people will think a classic person is very intelectual, clever and honest like Emma Watson and Grace Kelly
I think you are onto something. This is good stuff. Thanks for sharing. :)
i'm just learning (in my late 20s lol) that I definitely have ingenue essence! would love to hear you go more in detail about ways to accommodate ingenue essence without looking like a child. (for me, hair has been the key-a half-up half-down hairstyle really suits me. but i'd love to hear more recommendations!) I'm also super interesting in seeing more examples of how ingenue essence combines with the more yang essences. i feel like most people are a unique blend of the essences.
My problem is I have a romantic body type with (I think) ingenue essence but I don’t like dressing in frilly girly things😭 I feel prettiest when I’m in black! I do have a black dress that is flowy and has some ruffles and is fitted at the waist, that dress is the perfect style for me and I feel comfortable in it. But it’s such a struggle finding things I like!
Wear black lace
Black lace is sexy for the romantic but hints at innocence w the lace without being obvious
I always look amazing in black lace dresses with waist definition . Preferably midi length. And I have an ingenue romantic face w theatrical romantic body
I have a combination of natural and Ingenue essence I would definitely love an analysis on the different combinations
This! I have natural and ingenue too, and I have no idea how to incorporate both. Lol
For a while I thought I was gamine but when I wore gamine styles I felt I looked weird and out of sorts. I have been told I have baby face even now as an adult. People often think I am half my age and when I try to dress more "adult" I look like I stole my moms clothes 😂. It also doesn't help that I am 4'11" 😭.
OMG i understand why my "quirky" style works i do girly but playful....barbie pink doesnt suit me as well as coral tho...but we must keep skin tones in mind with colors
For the longest time I thought I was more gamine, but after watching I've discovered I'm ingenue. All of the clothes you showed for the type I mentally checked off in my closet.
I am a soft natural with what I believe to be a combination of natural-romantic-ingenue essences. I find that I can take aspects of all three and mix and match. I have a high forehead, with large eyes and soft (but blunt) features. I often am told I look younger than I am. However, with ingenue, I have to be careful how much "cute" I add, as some prints that are too small actually make me look a bit bigger with my broad frame if the cut isn't right. Loving your videos!
I relate so much! I’m also a SN and have ingenue essence. I can look a bit silly if I wear too much cute, as I have strong shoulders and I’m on the taller side of the SN range.
It has been incredible to watch your production value and the quality of your videos go up and up the past year!! You started out strong but you just get better with time :) Love your stuff, keep going!!
I have the Marilyn combo (ingenue face/romantic body)! Thanks for clarifying in this video. This is all new to me and super interesting. Still haven't figured out my season though lol.
Does Marylin have ingenue face? I always thought she looks her age or even slightly older. E.g. Rihanna has ingenue face, and so does Tzuyu from Twice, and Zendeya - they're all dramatics but their face confuses people to think they are a 'yin' type.
Marylin for sure has delicate features - I think she has a romantic face - just like how Beyoncé has a romantic face. They have feminine faces but not baby faces. I think 'pixie' face incorporates features you can see on a little boy/girl e.g. Ariel from Little Mermaid - if you take off her makeup and cut her hair short- she looks like a little boy/girl. But if you do the same to a romantic face e.g. Belle, she still looks like a woman with no makeup and short hair.
@@Ri57490 good point. I may just be a little more confused now in terms of my looks lol but your point makes perfect sense. Ultimately I want to book her package to take guessing out of the equation.
@@Ri57490 Marilyn Monroe had an ingenue face
Me too. My face is more ingenue but my body is theatrical romantic
It's like you know that we Elder Millennials cannot resist a Clueless reference 😅
It would be cool to see a video on how to do Gamine or Ingenue essence with a more yang body type.
I wish the ingenue essence was more included because I have a soft gamine body type and I keep getting recommended to dress in more masculine clothes, but masculine clothes don’t sit right on me because I always just look like I’m wearing a boyfriend’s clothes 😂😂😂 so I’m glad I found out about ingenue essence because because the ingenue recommendations look MUCH better on me 😊
This type of comparison is so helpful! Thanks for the videos ☺️ I struggle to understand soft gamine vs theatrical romantic for myself.
I love the photos you use for reference. Keep up the good work!
For the longest time I thought I was a gamine body type because of my essence! People would always say my face was very similar to Winona Ryder, or Alice from Twilight. As I've looked more closely at my body type and watched your videos I have discovered I am more closer to a soft dramatic the any of the gamine types.( I have a longer vertical line with curves in chest and hips)
Thats me too... my body is tall and curvy, but my face is very child/pixie like. Because my body is tall and curvy I find that short hairstyles dont suit me that well because it makes my head look too small against my body. But long hair with bangs looks bomb. Bangs really suit me.
Exactly the same case with me hahah
Imagine subscribing when we were just less than 5k ... Now look how your channel grow so fast. I do wish people can see this wonderful gem more. You always make a clear content Ellie! Ingenue here and all thanks to your free education here. ♥️
This was phenomenal ✨I definitely have an Ingenue face 🥰☺️
Oh my gosh! This is actually a break through for me! I definitely have ingénue, and maybe some gamine. Usually essence videos really confuse me on what I actually am verses what I want to be.
do you mind expanding on natural essence? All explanations existing are so so vague!
This confirms I have gamine energy. I just thought I had ingenuine essence, partly because I have a babyface and people keep on thinking I'm 10 years younger than I actually am, but this made me realize I've more gamine essence.
I realized it because different friends over the years have said I have puppy energy; a playful, youthful energy I have regardless of how I feel and how old I actually am. But one friend had said that if I'm a puppy, I'm more of a wolf puppy, like ' it's cute and playful but you can't tame it and it will bite you if you cross it's boundaries'. I feel that a descriptive that fits gamine essence as well :P
Hi. I just subscribed because I appreciate how unique this content is. I love to see a variety of people represented as well. Really awesome.
This was the perfect video to learn the difference between the two, thank you :)
I'm definitely a mix of both with a slight lean towards the gamine essence
this is what i was looking for ! thanks you're amazing
@Text me on telegram @EllieJeanRoyden oh yeah, what prize exactly?
Bows ruffles and frills have been in my wardrobe for so long. And my soul is the color pink. I guess that means I have ingénue essence!
I feel like i’m both but i can’t tell. I’ve had short and long hair and both look good. and ppl have always told me i look younger, but i do feel like i look better in ingenue clothing 😵💫😵💫
Thank you Ellie-jean! I learn so much from your channel! I think I have gamine essence with romantic body type bc I am all circles lol and ppl say my smile looks like I’m up to something.
I look like a child with my small face and hands. I'm also small (not just short). I've am autistic, so better nothing to actually cling on me. I like knee lenght skirts a lot, short sleeves blouses (up to 3/4 sleeves) , capelets, open necklines and ballerinas (I love to actually feel where I'm standing).
This was super helpful! I def have a baby face but I feel like my face and small hands and feet are the only “delicate”/small/feminine things about me. I *think* I’m a soft natural kibbe type (though I’m 5’7”, pretty muscular and without a defined waist, but I have a large chest of 38DD and I’m more midsized, so idk). I think I have a mostly natural essence with hints of classic and now what I believe is ingenue essence. I’m honestly not sure though bc I feel like every kind of style I try looks weird on me. 😢 anyway, still working through all of it lol.
I am definitely Ingenue and likely mixed with romantic. It's taken me many years to embrace the natural faminine essence I have. I didn't want to dress in skirts and frills because growing up, it was seen as disempowering to dress uber feminine, eventhough I loved those types of clothes. Now I'm revamping my whole wardrobe and I feel so happy buying beautiful pieces that make me feel cute and pretty.
Same here girl ! I’m a romantic ingenue and always hated frills when I was a teen 😂 now I’m buying so many feminine pieces and they are so much more flattering on me than what I used to wear
Listening to the intro of this video, my husband says to me: "You're the sharp, pointy one." He's not wrong!
I feel like I learned something new, thank you! 😊
Short video indeed, but most definitely helpful, Miss Ellie-Jean 😉💖
Thank you so much for this because I would always confuse my essence but now I know that I have ingenue with romantic Essence
Hey Ellie! Could you please do a video on best shape/style jeans for each of the body types? Thank you!! Love your work 💕
The timing of this video being posted is perfect for me. I just found out about face essence types a few days ago, and I'm still trying to figure out out if I'm gamine or ingenue. I'm leaning more towards gamine right now though.
You look stunning in this video!
I have a feeling I have Gamine face mixed with dramatic or romantic because my features are big in the eyes high cheekbones round cheeks but my face, but I can tell I'm mixed since everyone's reaction is I look friendly and carefree.
ever since i started learning about body types and essences ive felt conflicted, because i definitely have a dramatic body type- tall, broad shoulders, skinny, etc. but my face is this sweet, girlish ingenue essence, and watching this video helped heaps bc it made me realise that i can be BOTH- my colour palette is a bright winter but because of my essence i can pull off light pink or blue, and even though im a dramatic, just like taylor swift i can still pull off the girly dresses and bows. I think its because of my essence that i cant pull off oversized blazers, even though im a dramatic, but a long coat works so well for the sharp lines. THANK YOU for these videos, they have helped me discover so much more about myself and my personal style!!
My understanding is that it's 80/20 face to body. I think what's missing using photos is how we carry ourselves as well.
For a while I thought that aside from having classic and natural essence that I had Gamine, but I saw the styles in the examples here and visualized how I would look in them in comparison to the Ingenue examples, and I felt that the Ingenue was more harmonious with my facial features. The large rounded forehead is on point. People think that I'm about 10-20 years younger than I am.
I just can't tell which one i am, my face fits with both the descriptions of ingenue and gamine. But i also feel like i have other essences too
This was helpful!
This really helped clear things up! I was on the fence on whether my essence went more towards gamine or ingenue, and I'm pretty sure I'm more ingenue (mixed with romantic, I think?)
Do all the combos! : )
So helpful!
My face is definitely ingenue, maybe with some gamine qualities (high noticeable cheekbones, small mouth, small forehead) but there are no edges, everything is very smoothed out. But my body is more gamine and I've found that I look silly in ingenue clothes, yet very good in gamine clothes. It is very confusing. I think I have both essences. People have stated that I look young and doll-like, teenager-like (at 29, i still get ID'd). I'm not super tiny though, which I think is a proportion of classic essence shining through as well.
I'm constantly told I have a baby face but also extremely curvy so I never know which thing to lean into without looking off on either side. Could you do a video about soft dramatic and gamine faces 😅
can you do a video on the romantic-ingenue-gamine blend?
Thanks for this! I’m narrowing down my essences and neither of these are part of mine 😅 if someone could tell me which ones you see the most in me I’d really appreciate it.
Hello, would you consider doing a video about soft dramatic kibbe types with ethereal essence? 😊
Yes please! I think this is me!
Thank you. At 28, I had a job as sub teacher at a vocational school. I was told by the guard I couldn't enter the teachers' area. It took a while of confusion before I understood she thought I was a student (between 16-19 yo). I think I have some ingenue essence.
How do you mix ingenue and ethereal with Kibbe Dramatic, when the recommendations are all opposite of each other? I mean, no flowy fabrics, frills, bows and small, girly pattern for Dramatics.
I have natural and ingenue essence. Thanks for making me feel better about my baby face 😂
I totally do both of those but a bit gothy lol.
Based on my astrology (Venus in Aquarius) I love mixing fem & androgyny. I love wearing a blazer with a really feminine dress and stockings.
I’ve been deep diving on essence videos and they make so much sense to me now and why I could not pull of certain looks. I am predominantly ingenue and everyone always comments on my baby face and young look (I’m 29) but I think I have gamine essence as well and I most often have outfits that fit either gamine or ingenue now that I really look at my wardrobe and what looks best on me. I’m trying to figure out my third essence… I think it may be natural because I have a larger prominent nose despite my small rounded face and large eyes ?
Apparently I have gamine essence with a dramatic classic type, that does not seem like it will ever fit together 😅 but it does explain why my typing sheets looked like an absolute mess until I started separating out the face from the body suddenly I had a pattern. It also explains why I get “fairy”, Bond Villain, and “the best friend with a bit of a past” as my “vibes” when I ask people.
Some of my friends are weirdly specific 😂 also none of them agree
Wow that's so cool. It's awesome that you know so much about your essence and type, and even more awesome that your friends are open to it and have such cool descriptions of you! Like seriously those are such dreamy ways of being described! If I asked my friends to describe how I look they would go "why? Is this because you're feeling insecure? Because you have abaolutely nothing to worry about, you look fine! Now let's go grab dinner before it gets any colder outside!" 😆 ugh the plights of being the only one of your female friends who doesn't have a natural way with fashion and who doesn't just instinctually know how to pick out clothes that look good on their body. That's why I'm trying to learn more here, my friends all just naturally click when it comes to styling themselves and others, as well as putting together outfits that match well, so they would think I was being silly for spending so much time trying to understand as much as I possibly can of all of this theory. But that's just it, they wouldn't get it because they just subconsciously know how to optimise their looks and make themselves striking even in casual errand clothes. I, on the other hand, still end up looking like a dork even when I'm trying my hardest to look my best. 😂 I get that they're biologically better looking than me, but come on now, there *has* to be SOME way in which I can scrub up nicely, or scrub up alright at least...🤔🤣😅
@@MM-wr4ok thank you! It has taken a while and sometimes I still have doubts- my color season is a whole mess 😅 but actually they weren’t all my friends - I got Bond villain from an acquaintance/mild competitor 🤷🏼♀️ it’s a process and for me it’s fun - I usually just walk away when I feel like I *have* to figure it out because it’s not likely to work when I’m so intense about it anyway.
Also you don’t have to be good at “feminine things” to find your style -how you come off to people is a mix of so many things what you wear is only part of it. And celebrities have A LOT of help. It’s like Helena Bonham-carter says everything you do and are is art. Finding yourself is more important than any fashion rules for communicating what you want to the world
Also because I want the best for people and you seem like you might be over comparing yourself to others I’d like to add that if you feel like your friends are judging you about your interests and creating an environment of constant comparison for you it might be worth looking at how healthy these people are for you. I mean I don’t know you but I truly believe there are friend groups out there for everyone (sometimes the right fit even changes) and we all deserve love and support from those around us.
Thank you very much for this video, now it’s more clear.
I would like to ask you to make a video of how to give flirty vibe with your bode kibbe type and face essence. For women with petite soft classic body and face type kind of naive it’s difficult to look seductive. And of course we can be attractive with our natural looks we got, but sometimes we want to give other messages and control our impression. 🙂🙏🏻
This is so helpful! But what about if you are a mix of the two? I am and can find it hard to balance them sometimes :)
do u have examples of gamine essence with natural essence? or ingenue with natural?
I finally realize I have ingenue essence. Still torn on my kibbe body type. Will never know if I’m SN, SC, or even SG, someone even suggested DC the other day. At least I know my essence!
I’ve taken the test on truth is beauty, which I found really helpful, and it was determined that I’m 35% gamine, 35% ingenue, and 35% classic. Interestingly, these essences match up with the comments people have made about my appearance my entire life. Thank you for the video! It’s very clarifying, and I agree that it’s probably quite common to have a blend of gamine and ingenue.
I have a question, can big noses affect someone’s beauty? I have a big nose my self and I feel like it’s ruining my appearance, and like it’s not bcuz it’s big it’s bcuz it’s so noticeable.
where did you find this test?
@@neptune6619 I definitely don't think having a big nose is a bad thing! One of the first things I notice about someone with a defined nose is how regal and powerful they look. That is never a bad thing!
I just realized this adds up to 105% 🤣 they were all even is the point 🤗
it seems accurate! you look like a real life disney princess
I tried a face shape analyser app and it told me I look like a boy even though I am a 20 year old girl. Can that maybe be an indicator that I have gamine essence?
Can you be a mix if both? I have an ingenue button nose, small plumpy mouth, chubby cheeks and have been told i look innocent, however I also have a gamine diamond shaped face, deepset eyes, bushy eyebrows and have been told i look mischievous. My wardrobe consists of both gamine and ingenue outfits and they both look good on me.
Thank you for this video! ❤
Can you have both ingenue and ethereal essence? I’m tall at 5’9 but I have large eyes and softer features but also a small chin and long neck. I’ve watched both your videos and both times I thought “that’s me!” So idk 🤷♀️
literally can’t wear blazers because i look like im drowning in the fabric and im short as well so they look extra bad on me.
overall I think I have a romantic body type with ingenue essence mostly
Can you do a video on people with ingenue essence and an autumn color season? I find it difficult because autumns can’t really wear girly colors like pink.
“No one wants to dress like a Lolita doll” Hen there’s a whole fashion trend around that with like a ton of different currents but sure tell yourself this 😆
Hi Ellie-Jean, I really love your content. Thank you for making the distinction clearer.
I have a suggestion for your film costume review: "Boo bitch".
I just finished it and I thought the costuming was very good for the body types. And I would be curious to hear your opinion about Gia. Because I think she looks just a tiny bit out of place in the gamine clothing, but I find it hard to understand why.
I'd love it, if you could look into it ❤
i saw a post that said that if you have ingenue in your mix alongside another contradictory/yang-based essence they suggest you to avoid the girly silhouettes and just incorporate its yin elements in your looks as small scale details
mines are natural classic gamine and ingenue
What is your hair color dye ? Please I love it so much ❤❤❤❤❤
Hey can you do a Barbra Streisand body type analysis, thanks😊
I find it difficult sometimes when just looking at the face and essences to tell what is gamine and what is dramatic if we're looking at faces and essences. I know you explained it lol but it still confuses me because my thinking is gamines are small dramatics in a way. Its their shortness and small statutes that give off that contrast? So when looking at essences with gamines i get confused. What would be a great example of a gamine with mostly dramatic essence that may clear it up for me? Or is Susan Sarandon the best example?
I guess I have a gamine, ingenue and natural essence with a soft gamine body. I look my best with a black and white t-shirt with stripes a black jeans and colorful trainers. But I can handle puffsleeves and pastel colours as well. What hairstyles are recommended for a gamine, if you don't want to have short hair? (my hair is to great to be short)
I feel the furthest from gamine and then you put my celeb lookalike as a gamine example 🤣
Hi Ellie-Jean, love your videos. I’m a little confused here. Kibbe’s theory places gamine after classic and next to romantic in terms of movement from yang to yin ie more yin overall, and here I see John Kitchener has placed it after natural and before classic ie more yang overall. I’ve noticed you mentioning in a few videos that gamines have more yang than yin features too and while I see this certainly tallies with John Kitchener’s essences’ theory, it doesn’t fit with Kibbes. Sincerely confused from a (self diagnosed) soft gamine who doesn’t know her essences. ❤
i recommend @gabrielle arruda’s videos!! she talks about how kibbe and kitchener differ in a way that clicked for me. her ingenue essence one may be a good place to start
@@welpppppppppppppp thank you so much! ❤
How to differentiate gamine+romántic essences from ingenue essence?
i read somewhere that the difference between both is ingenue means small scale yin while gamine is small scale yang
Yes,is correct!
I know that I have at least some ingenue essence because I’ve always been told I look very young for my age, and sweet, but I think I probably also have gemine because I have sharpness to my nose and chin areas, as well as in my eye brow shape.
my face always appears to be very long and I never really know what my body and essence and my colors are...but I would love to know! my little girl often asks me about style and fashion and I love clothes and hats and shoes and have a large collection I believe of mainly SUN ☀️ some Earth and Mushroom 🍄 according to your docu-minies..which she really loves to go through and try on and play with.
I figure if I knew more about myself, then I could better answer her questions as well and just dress us both better according to our faces, bodies and personality.
but other than my face being so long, oval shaped, large nose, big eyes, medium sized lips, I have a smaller frame but in not considered petite and have a large bosom area that kind of stands out. I'm 5'4" and maybe 135 pounds. I have dark, long curly hair and that's me there to the left in the picture circle..
Could you help?
Please? 🍓
I have a question, if you’re east or central Asian and it’s common to have not so big eyes, can you still be ingenue or gamine?
I'm a tomboy ingenue 😭. I realized I've been dressing against my style and the instances I have dressed 'girly' I've looked really good.
I feel like I´m a Gamine but I have close-set almond eyes and a very rounded soft face shape but my face is still elongated somehow. like an oval face but with a lot of face fat even though I´m very skinny on my body xD is this possible for a gamine?
Gamine, Romantic (exotic) and ethereal pls.. next 😭
Growing up as a punk/goth teenager I just wanted to look badass but never really did, no matter how I dressed or presented myself, turns out its cause I'm ingenue lol the struggle is REAL
But what about dressing to mix your essence with your body type
I have no clue what I am. My face confuses me 😂
My face looks best with ingenue makeup style but clothing wise, I look best with gamine one
Ingenue essence all the way here!
I watched this whilst looking in the mirror. Face wise I definitely see ingenue and romantic. The combination of gamine , ingenue and romantic you mentioned really described me, in that my ingenue and romantic essences really reduce my gamine essence and so i give off a similar vibe to Marilyn monroe , soft ,cute and sensual. When i smile, i dont look "impish" or "cheeky" i look more doll like and sweet. I'm SG and the only gamine element I see in my face is high , prominent cheekbones, but there also very rounded and my short , narrow nose bridge. This has made me less sure of my gamine essence. I think I have mostly romantic around 50%, ingenue 30%, with gamine at 20% body wise I do see all three, ingenue, gamine and romantic but gamine essences are higher in my body than my face. I have done an essence test and it came up with romantic being my dominant essence secondly ingenue thirdly gamine with a small hint of dramatic.
I'm ingenue but I am dark winter and that's why I feel it's kinda contrasting
