Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder, but according to science, there’s a little more math involved. A recent study has attempted to identify the world’s most beautiful women, using facial mapping technology and the ancient Golden Ratio of Beauty. The results are, as you might expect, as fascinating as they are controversial.
The data comes by way of cosmetic surgeon Dr. Julian De Silva, who used a computerised facial mapping technique based on the ancient Greek Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi, to determine who possesses the most mathematically perfect features. The ratio, which measures facial symmetry and proportion, has been used for centuries as a benchmark for aesthetic perfection.
According to de Silva’s calculations, model Bella Hadid came in first with a 94.35% perfect face, which is quite perfect if not entirely perfect. Running a close second was Beyonce, who scored 92.44%, just ahead of Amber Heard – surely a triumph for the underdog there – on 91.85%. Rounding out the top ten were Ariana Grande, Taylor Swift, Kate Moss, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Katy Perry and Cara Delevingne.
While beauty may still be subjective, this study claims to offer an objective, data-driven approach to what has long been considered an unquantifiable concept. Whether you agree or not, one thing’s for certain, these women have the numbers on their side.
