About This Quiz

In this quiz, we're going to determine whether you're more of a beauty or a beast. You might think you're one or the other, but this quiz will unveil who you really are! You may be a beauty at heart, and we're not just talking about good looks. Those who are beauties are also beautiful on the inside, which means they are kind and benevolent by nature. They seek to bring happiness to those around them and never judge others before they know them. These types of people also don't exclude others and are happy to make new friends!

On the other hand, you might be a beast, which means that you've got a tough exterior that you present to people. However, this may not be your true nature, as you might have erected that wall after being hurt by someone you trusted. "Beasts" are also always on their guard, and on the lookout for potential threats, both physical and emotional. You could also be a hybrid of a beauty and a beast, or 75% beauty in this quiz!
