What do Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong’o and Halle Berry have in common? Apart from the fact that these three are world famous, they also have a specific face shape, which makes them uniquely beautiful, according to a study.
Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong’o and Halle Berry have one thing in common: they’re beautiful women. And according to science, one detail in particular explains why.
A scientific study comparing facial shapes
For this study, Turkish scientists showed 172 men identical female faces. The only difference between the five photos: the shape of the face. The men were asked to rate each face on a scale of one to ten: with a score of 1 being a “very unattractive” face and a score of 10 being a “very attractive” face.
The researchers then calculated the average score obtained by each face. Results: Heart-shaped faces scored the highest, averaging 5.3 out of 10.
Heart shaped face, most attractive for men
According to the findings of this work, a face with a heart-shaped face, broad cheekbones and a pointed chin will be the most attractive female face to men.
According to experts, this shape will give the face a smooth and curvaceous look while high cheekbones will help rejuvenate the face for a long time.
So it’s usually the face shape of stars like Scarlett Johansson, Lupita Nyong’o or Halle Berry. The second most requested face shape by men is oval, with a score of 4.5. This suits faces like Rihanna or Cameron Diaz. Opposite, in the last position, comes a square-shaped face with a score of 4.06.
