Beauty depends on the proportion of eyes, nose and lips to each other, Do you agree?

I read this in a Spanish Magazine. It says that it depends on the size of the features compared to each other, whether the face is perceived as beautiful. You have determine whether eyes, nose and lips are small, medium or large compared to the size of the head. These combinations are meant to be beautiful (in the order eyes, nose, lips):


ssl, sml, mll, lll, lss, lsm, lmm, mmm, llm





these are not good looking:


sls, sms, mls, mlm, slm





all others ar average looking.


So basically if you have either large eyes or lips, or a small nose, you cant be ugly.


What do you think?Beauty depends on the proportion of eyes, nose and lips to each other, Do you agree?
No it's not the size of the features. It's the symetry, or how 'even' one side of the face is to the other. This study was done at Cambridge and also tested by 20/20 news show.





If it is the 'size', then those with big lips wouldn't be beautiful, which is contrary to all the idealized women in the spotlight today.Beauty depends on the proportion of eyes, nose and lips to each other, Do you agree?
Yes this is evident in Greek and Roman Sculptures. It is called the golden ratio about 1.6 and it is the ratio of body parts that is idealized. It also has to do with the vertices of a hexagon.
Sociologists insist that the underlying factor in evaluations of beauty is symmetricality. If the right and left sides of a face are mirror images, the more likely the face will be evaluated as beautiful. The same goes for other species, where evenness of features plays a huge part in choice of mates.





That is not to say that there are not other factors as well, just that this factor is quite basic, such that a face could have less than perfect proportions among its elements, and still be considered attractive if there is this symmetry.
I guess I'm ugly then, because I think I fall in the MLS category. Thanks for making my day...
