Attractiveness is subjective, but certain facial features tend to be widely considered appealing. According to Dr. Michael Kernohan, these include:
Key Attractive Facial Features
Here's a breakdown of facial features that often grab attention:
- Big, Alert Eyes: Large, bright eyes are often perceived as a sign of youth and health, making them a highly desirable trait.
- Small, Proportional Nose: A nose that is well-balanced with the rest of the face is considered aesthetically pleasing.
- Defined Cheeks: Cheekbones that are well-defined provide facial structure and are generally seen as attractive.
- Well-Defined Jawline: A strong jawline is often associated with masculinity and attractiveness in both men and women.
- Full Lips: Plump, well-defined lips are considered a desirable feature, often associated with sensuality.
How these Features Influence Perception
These features, often highlighted in cosmetic procedures, contribute to an overall perception of facial harmony and beauty. The balance and proportion of these features, rather than individual traits alone, often determine how attractive someone is perceived to be.
