Jean Harlow’s Migrating Beauty Mark

Some girls are born with a beauty mark. Other women have the freedom to draw them on where they see fit…like Jean Harlow.

Something to consider when choosing a space for a mark…the beauty mark is essentially a “spot” on your face. It is often the first thing people notice. Their eyes tend to go next to the closest facial feature. So if you are trying to guide people on your face to what you consider your best feature, think about putting a beauty mark next to it.

This collage of images is a great illustration of the the diverse options for a beauty mark.
