Describing Smiles

Smile on me, and teach me your laws.

Psalm 119:135

A smile swept across her face

A faint, transient wistful smile lightened her brooding face

A faint tremor of amusement was on his lips

She smiled brightly

He flashed his lovely teeth at me – 

He face lit with a smile

He said with a willed little smile

Their smiles were tight and anticipatory

Leering smile

Rueful smile – expressing sorrow regret in a wry humorous way

A petrified smile

A glittering infectious smile

He smiled in a comfortable way

He said with a sardonic smile (cynical)

Rueful grin

He smiled thinly

Beaming with pleasurable anticipation

A sheepish grin

She offered a little embarrassed smile

He gave her a sympathetic smile

He had a thrilled self conscious smile

A sardonic smile

Her face lit up in amusement

She let out a triumphant yelp

She flicked a smile at me

A smile of baffled amusement 

Her mouth twitches with a smile

A reticent smile – not revealing one’s thoughts or feelings readily

I replied with a twinkle

A slow, comprehending smile

A wavering smile

She gave me a twisted smile

A crooked, apologetic grin

An amused, soft smile

A vacant smile

A tight lipped smile

A quick grin

Sweet lob sided smile

Crooked smile

An easy smile

An open smile / face

She moved her lips slightly to indicate a smile.

A hopeful smile

A charming grin

I feel my smile harden

A dimple forming on one cheek as he smiles

A wobble smile

A weak smile

A brief, frozen smile

His smile broadens

A terrible smile (sinister)

A wan smile

Serene smile, almost angelic

A knowing smirk

A slow smile playing on her lips

A triumphant smile

Her smile falter slightly

I give him a thin smile

A smirk plays around the edges of his mouth

The faintest smile flits across his mouth

She gives him a sickly smile – ill, in poor health

Demure smile

She saw the shadow of a smile play across her lips

A fleshy cheeked smile

Sympathetic smile

A slow smile spreading across her face.

His features lit by a joyous smile

A slow, gentle smile 

A winning smile

The smile froze on his face

She returned his smile 

A faint smile played across her lips

A brittle smile 

A slight smile bunched on his lips

She smiled indulgently
