I watched the @tferg__ YouTube video on Kibbe body

I watched the @tferg__ YouTube video on Kibbe body types and found it super interesting, so I took the test to see which one of the 13 body types I am. The types take into account not only the shape of your body, but also facial features, the lines of your body, flesh, and height.

To my surprise, I got the "Romantic" body type on the Yin (feminine) end of the scale. The examples are Marilyn Monroe, Beyonce, and Kate Winslet, so I didn't see how I could relate, but Romantic types have a lot of round features in the face and body, even though you don't have to be too curvy or fleshy to fit into this category. I did find this test helpful because it made me realize why I'm drawn to certain clothes, makeup, and hairstyles. Harsh/bold makeup, edgy clothes don't work on me while really feminine, flowy clothes and softer makeup do. I have more of an athletic build these days, but the muscles just pad out my body to make me look curvier. So I can relax about working out to look like a bag of rocks because it's just not going to be complementary on me anyway.

Drew Barrymore is a good Romantic example for me because she has a lot of roundness and softness in her face and body without being very curvy. I'm trying to find Asian celebrities in the Romantic type to look to for inspiration, but sadly, mainly thinner body types are promoted in Asian cultures.

If you want to take the Kibbe test, I'd be curious know your results and how you like the system. The test can be confusing because most of the examples used are Caucasian women who look very similar. I looked at two tests to understand the concepts first, then took the test that automatically calculated the result for me.
