人們總說，內(nèi)在的素質(zhì)最重要。不過，英國最近的一項(xiàng)研究顯示，人的面部特征對其成功與否也有一定的影響。研究人員對英超切爾西老板、石油巨頭羅曼?阿布拉莫維奇，印度鋼王拉克西米?米塔爾，威斯敏斯特公爵，喜力啤酒繼承人夏琳?卡瓦柳等英國的成功男性和女性的面部特征分析后，發(fā)現(xiàn)這些人的面部都有相似的一些特征，比如：男性都有羅馬鼻，眼距和鼻翼都較寬，而女性共有特征則顯示為人中（即鼻子到上唇之間的距離）長、額頭高、眉宇寬。也就是說，具備這些特征的人更有可能成功。研究人員表示，人的面部特征不僅能影響一個(gè)人的成功之路，對其性格特征也有決定作用。

Winning combination: A composite image of what Britain's most successful male and female would would look like.

We're always told that it's what's inside that counts. But a new study reveals that facial features could well be linked to boardroom success.

And if you look anything like the top ten men and women in the rich list, chances are you too are going to get filthy rich.

Experts scrutinised the features of the UK's most successful people and came up with the facial model most likely to get ahead in the world.

The researchers examined the likes of Roman Abramovich, Lakshmi Mittal, the Duke of Westminster, Lady Tina Green and Heineken heir Charlene Carvalho and came up with a composite made up of those of the 10 richest men and women in the UK.

The result, they say, shows what features are most likely to make you a mega-rich tycoon or entrepreneur.

Men possessing the Roman nose, wide set eyes and flared nostrils could be destined for wealth and business success, as opposed to a man with a ski-slope or up-turned nose, who is likely to be a poor money manager.

Phillip Green, they say, has the archetypal Roman nose, the Duke of Westminster is said to have flared nostrils, while Lakshmi Mittal is declared as having wide-set eyes.

Female features that proved common in successful women were long philtrums (the groove that runs from the nose to the upper lip), high foreheads and flared eyebrows.

According to the study, Lady Tina Green, wife of billionaire Sir Philip and a resident of tax haven Monaco has a long philtrum, while Heineken heir Charlene de Carvalho has a high forehead.

The experts who carried out the research - so-called personologists - belong to a branch of psychologists who explore the correlation between the shape of a person's face and their behaviour.

Mark Riley, Marketing Director of MyJobGroup.co.uk, responsible for commissioning the study, said: 'Success in business is down to many factors, one of which could well be our facial features.

'Following our analysis, we were surprised to see how prominent certain features were in the faces of the UK’s ten richest men and women.'

But all is not necessarily lost if you don't share the common features of success.

'Whether or not you match up to our ‘Face of Success’ images, one of the most important factors in business success is being in the right job at the right time,' added Mr Riley.

It's not only wealth that personologists claim to be able to predict using facial features.

Different physical characteristics can be attributed to specific personality types, they claim. Personology expert, George Roman, said: "People with thin, soft, looser or porcelain-like skin tend to be more impressionable both emotionally and physically.

'Those with thin, fine hair are refined emotionally. A thick, full lower lip indicates spontaneous generosity to friends and strangers as well as talkativeness.'
