incongruency between what is said and the emotions shown.
There is no micro expression or body language for a lie. It all depends on your ability and experience to find the incongruency in your interlocutor’s speech.

Tip 1: Eye Contact
People think a liar avoids eye contact when lying, which is a misconception.
The liar often makes more eye contact to watch and see if you believe their lies.
Tip 2: Mouth Shrug
When someone makes a mouth shrugs when talk- ing or when listening to what you are saying, that means they have no confidence in their words or your speech.
Tip 3: The Pacifiers
Pacifiers are this kind of gesture someone will do when he feels discomfort, like rubbing his fingers, caressing his arm, his ear, touching his face, and so on. These types of gestures are self- comforting and serve to release the tensions.
Tip 4: The Illustrators
Illustrators are all these gestures that support what we are saying. The Italian people are very known for speaking with their hands.
When someone is lying, he tends to reduce and even not show any more illustrators. The brain cannot build a lie and think of moving simultaneously.
Tip 5: Itchy Nose
When telling lies, men have particular tissues in their noses, and in a position of discomfort, these tissues make your nose itchy.
This gesture is not an exact science, but it appears to be most of the time accurate.
The last word about lie detection. As mentioned earlier, it doesn't exist no single sign of deception. Take care when you analyze someone. Always take into consideration the context.
For example, if someone scratches his nose, it doesn't mean that he's lying, but if you ask a question and the person replies and scratches her nose, is considered as a red flag. Ask yourself if the question you asked can produce a lie.
