Describing a person's physical appearance

Example -- The face of the Burglar

I had a chance to see the man face to face when he was running away to the street. The man, about at forties, has an oval face. His dark brown hair is curly and thick, covering some area of the forehead, and the hair is not well shapped. His ears are small and almost hidden inside the thick hair. Under his heavy eyeglass frames are almond-shaped dark eyes, and the two curved eyebrows are thin and narrow. He has a large nose and a full-lipped mouth. Bushy sideburns, an arched moustache and an unshaven face make him look messy. A mole on the right side of his cheek above, the moustache can be a unique feature for identifying him. His nervous facial expression, I think, proves that he is the exact one police want.

  4. Hi Ashlar,

    Thanks for giving that blog, Kennysia.com. It looks great and professional. I want to have that kind of blog or website. However, I don't have so much time and I am do not good at managing a blog indeed.

    Well, by the way, I'm not so willing to put some private photos, such as the home I live actually. Regrettably, that can not enrich my blog, but that's okay for me.



    Greetings!



    Maggie^^

  11. My name is Leah Brown, I'm a happy woman today? I told myself that any loan lender that could change my life and that of my family after having been scammed separately by these online loan lenders, I will refer to anyone who is looking for loan for them. It gave me and my family happiness, although at first I had a hard time trusting him because of my experiences with past loan lenders, I needed a loan of $300,000.00 to start my life everywhere as single mother with 2 children, I met this honest and God fearing online loan lender Gain Credit Loan who helped me with a $300,000.00 loan, working with a loan company Good reputation. If you are in need of a loan and you are 100% sure of paying the loan please contact (gaincreditloan1@gmail.com)
