This research, as a technique for assessment of personality traits in adolescent women, investigated clinical validity by identifying relationships between characteristics in "Make-up Picture", and narcissistic and obsessive tendencies in the subjects.
As a result, "skin", "eyebrows", "eye make-up", "lips", and "cheeks" were chosen for standard portrayals of characteristics. We observed several incidences of "Blended Lip Color" and "Unique Characteristics - Eyes" in subjects who rated highly in "Self Assertiveness", a factor in "Narcissism". Therefore, this indicates that make-up images are a pictorial method facilitating the projection of narcissistic tendencies in adolescent women.
