This includes being perceived as competent, intelligent and trustworthy. But there are other, more specific features to watch for.

Read on to discover what they are.

In a business or friendly relationship, it's important to feel like you can confide in a person and know that sensitive information is safe. But how can you know?

Someone is

perceived as more trustworthy if they possess an open facial structure, with broad eyes, upward-cast grin, high cheekbones and a small nose. Also, holding puppies helps.

Dominance is the attitude that you can, and will succeed, and squash your competition. Your head is in the game, and you're indeed in it to win it.

Darker skin and

masculine features, like thick brows and direct eye contact and a stuff upper-lip convey dominance.

Competence is the ability to get things done in a timely manner. That deadline Friday? Picking the kids up at 6pm on-the-dot? You've got this.

If you have darker skin and

stronger facial features, you will be perceived as more competent. Alternatively, if you have more fair skin, and a downcast grin, you'll be thought of as less capable.

Are you going to be the life of the party or a wallflower? If someone wants a friend to hit the town with, or a business partner to schmooze like

the best of 'em, they'll look to see if you seem extroverted. 

The tell-tale signs of an extrovert are a propensity to smile while resting one's face, an arched brow,

and wide eyes. These features are classically more feminine features to possess. 

Will people like you when they first meet you? This is perhaps the most pressing question, and you're about to find out!

Likability is associated with fuller lips, wider eyes,

a more defined jawline, and other classically attractive features. Nothing that a plumping lipgloss and some bronzer can't help with!
