FOREHEAD
Your forehead foretells your “fortune”. A smooth, rounded forehead foretells a smooth future, filled with abundance. Of particular significance is area between your brows. It is of celestial importance that this area be free from marks, lines and indentations if you want to have a successful career.
There is some truth to this notion above. Perhaps in the old days, one who had a very hard life would crinkle their foreheads up in worry, resulting in lines and deep wrinkles. This in turn gave rise to the idea that a crinkled and creased forehead would belong to someone who had a tougher outlook in life.

NOSE
Who knew ancient Chinese philosophers had a “nose” for English idioms? If fengshui is to be believed, snobby people really do have their “noses in the air”, so to speak: A pleasingly high arch on your honker may mean lots of moolah.
ENHANCE: If accruing wealth is on your priority list, consider “investing” in minimally invasive nose fillers to mold the tip and bridge of your nose. Fillers are great if you have an uneven surface or a bump on your nose, a big no-no if you want to have a positive outlook on your life. Fillers can not only be used to add height but also smoothen the bridge of the nose for a more attractive appearance.
Nose thread lifts have also been rising in popularity as they are able to add very defined height to the nose bridge. It is good for people who want a very sculpted appearance as nose threads tend to be finer and so are able to elevate the nose bridge without making it look broader.
