How The Human Face Might Look In 1,000,000 Years

Forbes.com recently published an article about how the human face will evolve over time. But I don't think they extrapolated far enough.
In 100,000 years: The human face is proportioned to the 'golden ratio,' though it features unnervingly large eyes. There is green “eye shine” from the tapetum lucidum, and a more pronounced superciliary arch. A sideways blink of the reintroduced plica semilunaris seen in the light gray areas of the eyes, while miniature bone-conduction devices implanted above the ear work with the communications lenses on the eyes.

In 1,000,000 years: The human face is proportioned to that of 'anime characters,' though it features awesomesauce. There is "eye shine" from the cartooneum characterum, and a more pronounced sense of frivolity. A sideways blink of the reintroduced accent lines above and below the eye seen in the middle of a sentence fragment, while miniature bone-conduction devices are a figment of my imagination.
