I wish you would have been the one to kiss me first — but now I only wish that you might kiss me soon, and again, and last.

Ingenue vs Gamine: Comparative Essence Analysis
I feel like most people get Ingenue & Gamine essence mixed up. They're easy to confuse because both these essences make the individual look younger than they are and give them a "cute" appearance but there are key differences between the two.
CELEBRITIES WITH INGENUE ESSENCE
L to R
Nicola Coughlan, Kim Minju
YooA, Miranda Kerr
Hanni, Lin Yun
Gene Tierney, Skai Jackson & Michelle Trachtenberg
If you look at their features, they have full cheeks, mostly big eyes, a small tapered chin, round foreheads and an overall round face. They look very doll-like and innocent. Ingenue is extreme yin essence so these women look very girl-like even when they're much older (Miranda is 40, Nicola is 37)
CELEBRITIES WITH GAMINE ESSENCE
L to R
Taylor Russell
Zoe Kravitz, Jeongyeon, Dahyun
Seulgi, Devon Aoki, Luda
Kristin Kreuk, Nana Komatsu
All of these women have Gamine essence. Similar to Ingenue essence, all of them look young and cute but while Ingenues have more rounded features, Gamines have a combination of sharp and soft features. Gamine is yin with a dash of yang whereas Ingenue is pure yin. Gamines don't look as "innocent" as Ingenues, they have a kind of mischievous look to them. They're more likely to be cast as the troublemaker who plays silly pranks than the goody two shoes. Ingenues tend to have round faces overall whereas Gamines have more angular faces with pointy chins with smaller eyes and lips. They have a tomboyish charm.
L to R
Park Boyoung & Jun Jihyun- Gamine
Shu Qi & Ni Ni, both Ingenue
Zooey Deschanel, IU & Ariana Grande- Gamine
I wanted to juxtapose Shu Qi & Ni Ni with some Gamines because I feel like because of their features they can be mistyped as Gamines even though they're Ingenues.
One distinguishing trait is their rounded foreheads, this is a very youthful trait because we associate it with babies. Another is how their overall features are rounded not angular, pointy or sharp. They also do not seem "naughty" or "mischievous" looking. Their faces seem softer more delicate as opposed to the Gamines.
