New Year Success Could Be All In The Eyes

Could succeeding in a job interview be as simple as 'looking right'. Could finding love be down to the closeness of your partner's eyes? According to the Ultralase, after it questioned 1,000 people from across the UK, it could be that simple.

The report reveals exactly how our 'windows to the soul' can be used to our advantage in the New Year. Aside from words, people are most likely to use a person's eyes to read their inner-most thoughts and feelings (55%), above posture (22%), hand movements (16%) and complexion (2%) with 5% not even knowing where to start.

The results inspired the company to apply a little bit of science and enlist a duo of 'Personologists', Naomi Tickle and Richard Phelan - professional eye readers to you and me. They examined exactly what subtleties the 'naked eye' can communicate, and crucially, how this can help us when it comes to achieving New Year's resolutions.

Looking for Love? Make sure you look to the eyes to assess your compatibility!

1) Asymmetric wide set eyes: indicates commitment, loyalty and tolerance - someone who will stick with you despite your bad habits!

As seen on...Richard Branson, Elijah Wood

2) Close together eyes: indicates trust and discretion, a focus on detail - people with this trait do not like interruptions, if you're running late for a date, phone ahead.

As seen... Prince Charles, Ant & Dec.

3) Deep set eyes: indicates lots of emotional baggage and a serious personality - make sure you tread carefully.

As seen... David Beckham, Cheryl Cole, Nicola Horlick (City Superwoman)

4) Large irises: very emotional, need constant reassurance - so make sure you keep telling them how good they look.

As seen... Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole

5) Covered eyelid: extremely analytical - be careful what you do or say as they may read heavily into it.

As soon... David Beckham, Nicola Horlick

6) Outer Corner of eye lower than inner corner: extremely observant of the smallest of moves or expressions - careful what you're trying to hide!

As seen... Hugh Grant; Daniel Craig

7) Exposed eyelids - wants the bottom line - don't talk too much or they'll finish your sentences; impatient when others are slower than themselves

Looking for a new challenges in your career?

If your New Year's Resolution is to find a new job, then make sure you don't blow your chances by committing one of the 'eye sins' below!

1) Looking left: can indicate lying. Looking right while you're answering a question can indicate you're truthful and trustworthy

2) Heavy blinking: More than 30-40 per minute denotes that you could have something to hide

3) Continued broken eye contact: can mean a lack of commitment and confidence 

4) Red eyes: denotes lack of preparation (or lack of sleep, perhaps!!! – The Ed)

Richard Phelan, professional personologist and author of 'Face Reading', said: "There is a lot of truth in the adage your eyes are windows to the soul. Just knowing a few key signifiers can really help you understand what people are thinking. (www.askjeevesuk.net/fr)
