Eerie optical illusion shows you are 'brave on outside' if you spot first detail
Optical illusions have a sneaky way of uncovering hidden parts of our personality - and according to this one, what you spot first could reveal if you project bravery to the world Optical illusions aren't just entertaining - they can also reveal surprising insights about your personality and how your mind works. At first glance, the image below might seem simple, but don't be fooled. These kinds of illusions have a way of tricking the brain, with two people often seeing entirely different things in the exact same picture. You might find yourself staring at it for ages, questioning what you're actually looking at. One illusion in particular has sparked plenty of curiosity, with viewers claiming it uncovers hidden truths about character and confidence. According to TikTok creator Mia Yilin - who has attracted nearly half a million followers by sharing these fascinating psychological puzzles - what you notice first in this image could say a lot about whether you appear bold and fearless to those around you. From a quick glance at the image, you might see both a fish and a cloud - but which did you see first? According to Mia, if you see the cloud first, you may "seem like a very brave and resilient person on the outside" but are actually "rather sensitive on the inside and are easily affected by the words and actions of those around you". Continuing to explain the personality type of those who see a cloud first, she added: "You hate the idea of settling for someone or something and have very high standards and goals. Your personality is so attractive and charismatic that people cannot help but be drawn to you." According to Mia, those who fit in with this category are normally 'kind and friendly' but can also be "quite threatening in times of competition". However, if you saw the fish first, the TikToker claims you have a "life is short" mentality, which means you live life to the fullest. She continued: "Your time is the most valuable thing to you, so you hate wasting it on people and things that don't deserve it". She also claimed those who fit in this category are very 'hard' on themselves and 'give 100%' whenever they do anything. "That said, you're also a major worrier," she continued. "And spend a lot of your time stressing about the unknown." Mia added: "You're an extroverted introvert who prefers to spend time alone but can also become the life of the party when needs be." In the comment section people were blown away by the optical illusion and Mia's observations. One person wrote: "Fish... and definitely true... I am an extroverted introvert." Another added: "I believed it on extroverted introvert." "Fish and it's all true," added a third.

'I tried Molly-Mae's summer makeup routine - one product left me mind blown'
Molly Mae has shared what's inside her makeup bag for summer, packed with the dewiest creams and peachy blushes. The entrepreneur and former Love Islander shared a candid video as she did her summer makeup look - and it seems as if she's a huge fan of popular beauty brand Refy. Refy makeup is renowned for it's creamy formulas, sunkissed blushes and levelled-up brow products, and I knew if it was good enough for Molly-Mae, I just had to try it. It's a brand that is constantly cropping up on my TikTok and Instagram with their glossy and sleek videos and with so many celebrities and influencers hailing the products, I knew it was time I tried it out. However with a naturally oily complexion, I was worried how these cream-based products would last on my skin, especially in the warm weather as I usually have to layer on my setting powder throughout the day to help my makeup last without an oily outbreaks. Molly Mae regularly shares her makeup tutorial videos, and fans have been left in a chokehold with her glowing summer skin and it's all thanks to REFY's new Summer Sculpt Collection. Her video was just a few minutes long, but she transformed into a bronzed and dewy beauty. She captioned the post: "The same makeup look for 6 years. Did I achieve a more summery look? @REFY what magic are you putting into your glosses!?" She has previously been vocal about her love for the REFY Cream Bronzer and Cream Blush for years, which are included in the bundle from Jess Hunt's beauty label that is now on sale. The Summer Sculpt Collection contains all of the products needed for your summer makeup bag and features nine pieces of skincare products to help prep the skin as well as makeup items for the finished look. It includes the dual end Duo Brush, Face Sculpt and Sculpt Primer and all items are full size with the option to select your own shades in the blusher, bronzer and lip gloss. In her video, Molly can be seen applying the Face Sculpt moisturiser onto her skin, followed by the Glow and Sculpt Primer, which is fitted with a sculpting facial roller that is in essence a gua sha to help reduce any puffiness, and stimulate blood flow. So, I did the same - and I was very impressed with how glowy my skin instantly became. The applicator of the moisturiser meant my skin had a mini massage as I applied it which was a nice sensation, however I did end up rubbing it in with my fingers in the end as I felt it hadn't properly covered my whole face. One thing I always worry about with a hydrating formula is whether or not it will sink into my skin, as I am oily sometimes it doesn't mix well with my makeup, but this wasn't the case with these two products. Molly then applied her MAC foundation, so I applied my own foundation - I opt for NARS natural radiant longwear, and then copied Molly by then applying the cream bronzer. I used the Duo brush, which is a product the influencer said she "struggles to live without" and I can see why. It seamlessly applied the Cream Bronzer in shade tan to my cheekbones, and I was a little worried at first it was a bit orange, but it blended out very well. There were no patches or clumps - something I tend to get with a powder contour or bronzer and it enhanced my cheekbones well. I then applied REFY's Cream Blush in shade Malaya, which Molly called one of her "absolute favourites" and dabbed it onto the apples of my cheeks with the other end of the brush, as well as my nose to give a natural sun-kissed look. It's clear my skin was already glowing, and a far cry from the ultra-matte look I usually opt for, but I really liked it. However it didn't stop there, as I then applied some Gloss Highlighter in the shade Topaz to the top of my cheekbones and nose, which ehanced the glow even more. I usually never go for a cream highlight, and I was absolutely stunned by how it changed my face. It gave me such a natural yet dewy finish and I feel like my makeup will never look the same now without it. I always usually sway away from any type of product that is creamy and shimmery and I am definitely now converted to a huge fan - so thank you Molly Mae. I then moved onto my brows and used the Refy Brow Pencil in Dark - this isn't included in the Summer Sculpt, but if you are after a good brow pencil I would recommend. I then finished and set my brows with the Refy Brow Sculpt which is like a gel to keep my unruly hairs in place and then picked up the Lash Sculpt lengthening mascara. This is another product Molly gushed about as she said: "It's such a good mascara it literally doesn't miss a single lash. I didn't put on much, but if I layered up they would have gone mental." The unique shape of the wand means even the smaller corner lashes are coated evenly, however I felt as if I had to go over my lashes with another of my mascaras to give a fuller lash look. But for those who prefer a more natural looking eye this would be ideal. To finish off I lined my lips with the Lip Sculpt Liner in shade Fawn and a coating of the Lip Gloss in shade Topaz. I liked the shades of both of these, however the gloss is very sticky once applied. It's safe to say I am truly obsessed with these products, and after being worried about my oily skin, it lasted all day and I didn't feel sticky or oily much to my surprise. I wore it for the whole day and only applied powder twice - which for me is a real result. I feel like I would struggle to wear this makeup with anything other than a foundation as the brozers are quite orange and would look too much without. While it is quite pricey for the full kit, it really does contain everything you need for a perfect sun-kissed look. I am now a huge fan of REFY thanks to Molly Mae, and I feel like I too look like I've just stepped off the plane from Dubai thanks to the glowy products. The Summer Sculpt Collection is worth £184, but retails for £140, which is a saving of £44 exclusively available from REFY.
