Facial attractiveness is often linked to specific proportions and symmetries, with eye spacing playing a crucial role. Normal-set eyes—where the distance between the eyes is approximately one eye width—are generally perceived as more attractive in females compared to wide-set or close-set eyes. This preference is rooted in the concept of the “Golden Ratio,” a mathematical […]
Summary The size of a woman’s eyes plays a significant role in her perceived attractiveness, supported by extensive research in the fields of psychology and evolutionary biology. Larger eyes are often seen as attractive because they evoke youthfulness and neotenous features, which are evolutionary signals for health and fertility. These traits trigger innate preferences shaped […]
Summary The eye canthal tilt refers to the angle formed between the inner (medial) and outer (lateral) corners of the eyes. A study by Codner et al.

A study focusing on cultural differences revealed that Caucasians tend to prefer a “Western-type” eye shape, characterized by a narrower appearance, which contrasts with the preference for larger, rounder eyes in some Asian cultures. In addition, research suggests that narrow eyes are […]
Summary Research According to a study by Zebrowitz et al. (1993), due to the aging process, natural changes in skin elasticity often lead to the development of hooded eyes. For males, this transition can enhance a rugged and mature aesthetic, which is often associated with wisdom and experience. Reference Zebrowitz, L. A., Olson, K., & […]
Summary Close-set eyes, where the distance between the eyes is less than one eye width, are considered an attractive feature in men, as suggested by several studies. Bochan (2006) categorized eye spacing into close-set, normal-set, and wide-set eyes, emphasizing their influence. Adamson and Galli (2009), in their study published in the Journal of Plastic and […]
