N like Nose



N as in Nose

The nose is the part of the human face  that contains the nostrils and organs of smell and forms the beginning of the respiratory tract.

Your nose is important to your health.  It filters the air you breathe, removing dust, germs, and irritants.  It warms and moistens the air to keep your lungs and tubes that lead to them from drying out.  Your nose also contains the nerve cells that help your sense of smell.  When there is a problem with your nose, your whole body can suffer.  For example, the stuffy nose of the common cold can make it hard for you to breathe, sleep, or get comfortable.

Our sense of smell is not as developed as in dogs but we can all recognize a good, pleasant scent or something really stinky.  Of course there are experts, like the parfumier in France who can distinguish between hundreds of different scents, as can a fine wine sommelier.  Lately, like with all other allergies, people can have problems and react to smells like perfume.  This is a shame!

People have different types of nose shapes that vary from crooked to a cute romantic button nose.  Some people have been blessed with a perfect nose where others would do anything to change their crooked or snout nose!

Here some different nose types:

Concave Nose/Turned Up Nose

Straight Nose/Greek Nose

Snub Nose/Small Nose

Nubian Nose/Big Nose

Flat Nose


These days, very young girls, and sometimes even boys, have the desire to change their appearance by getting a "nose job".  It's one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries performed on men and women.

Like other body parts, the nose is a welcome place for piercings, little jewels, and even tattoos.

NIMBLE shows you that you can do little movements with your nose which can improve your whole face.
