The Duchenne Smile
An authentic Duchenne smile engages the orbicularis oculi — the ring of muscle around the eyes — producing real crow's-feet crinkles. A posed social grin activates only the zygomaticus major, the muscle that pulls back the lips, leaving the eyes flat. Because the eye muscle is involuntary and hard to fake, it separates felt warmth from a polite reflex.
