Real facial geometry math

What is looksmaxxing?

Looksmaxxing is the practice of systematically improving your physical appearance through evidence-based methods. It originated in online self-improvement communities and has gone mainstream on TikTok, Reddit, and YouTube as people realize that small, consistent changes to grooming, skincare, fitness, and photo presentation have outsized effects on first impressions.

The looksmaxxing approach is divided into two categories. Softmaxxing includes non-invasive improvements like skincare routines, hairstyle optimization, eyebrow grooming, fitness, posture correction, and learning to photograph well. Hardmaxxing involves surgical or medical procedures. This looksmaxxing test focuses entirely on softmaxxing — actionable, safe improvements anyone can make.

The goal of this test isn't to rate your attractiveness — no AI can do that meaningfully. Instead, it gives you objective facial measurements compared to population averages, then tells you what you can actually improve through grooming, fitness, and photo technique.

What does our looksmaxxing test measure?

Facial Symmetry

Compares left and right sides of your face across jawline, eyes, brows, and mouth. Population average is ~85%. Highly symmetric faces score 92%+.

Canthal Tilt

The angle of your eye corners. Positive (upward) tilt at the outer corners creates the "hunter eyes" look associated with alertness and attractiveness. Ideal canthal tilt: 4-7°.

FWHR (Facial Width-to-Height Ratio)

How wide your face is relative to midface height. FWHR ratios of 1.8-2.0 are linked with perceived dominance and attractiveness in peer-reviewed research.

Facial Thirds Balance

Whether your forehead, midface, and lower face are proportionally equal. The classical ideal is equal thirds (33/33/33).

Eye Spacing

The distance between your eyes relative to eye width. The classical ideal is exactly one eye-width between the eyes (ratio of 1.0).

Jawline Angle

The angle of your jaw from chin to jaw corner. Defined, angular jaws typically measure 45-55°. One of the most important looksmaxxing metrics for men.

Nose Proportion

Nose width as a percentage of total face width. The classical ideal is 22-26%.

Lip Ratio

The balance between upper and lower lip fullness. A slightly fuller lower lip (ratio of 0.5-0.8) is considered ideal.

Midface Ratio

The compactness of your midface region. A shorter midface (0.42-0.48) is associated with youthful, attractive proportions.

Hunter Eye Index

Eye width-to-height ratio. More elongated, narrow eyes (2.8-3.5) are the "hunter eye" shape. This is one of the most popular metrics in looksmaxxing communities.

How to improve your looksmax score (softmaxxing guide)

Most facial metrics are influenced by both genetics and controllable factors. Here are the highest-ROI softmaxxing improvements:

Lower body fat

Getting to 12-15% body fat (men) or 18-22% (women) reveals jawline definition, cheekbone structure, and improves nearly every facial metric. This is the single most impactful softmaxxing change.

Eyebrow grooming

The highest-ROI grooming change. Clean, shaped brows frame the eye area, can shift perceived canthal tilt, and improve facial symmetry in photos. Directly impacts 3 metrics.

Skincare routine

A simple routine (cleanser, moisturizer, SPF) improves skin texture and clarity, which affects how every feature photographs. Visible results in 4-8 weeks.

Photo technique

Camera angle, lighting, and expression have massive effects. Natural light from the side, camera at eye level, and a genuine smile can shift your perceived looksmax score by 10-20 points.

Hairstyle optimization

The right hairstyle can rebalance facial proportions — adding width to a narrow face (improving FWHR), covering a high forehead, or framing the eye area differently.

Posture

Forward head posture compresses the jawline and creates a double chin effect. Good posture lengthens the neck and defines the jaw angle.

The science behind facial analysis

Facial analysis tools like this one are built on decades of peer-reviewed research in facial geometry, evolutionary psychology, and computer vision. The metrics measured here aren't arbitrary — each one has an established research foundation linking it to perceived attractiveness, health signaling, or social dominance perception.

Facial Width-to-Height Ratio (FWHR) was identified as a predictor of perceived dominance in a 2008 study by Carré and McCormick in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Higher FWHR correlates with perceived assertiveness and leadership presence. Separately, a 2010 study found FWHR also predicts financial performance in CEOs.

Canthal tilt — the angle of the outer corners of the eyes relative to the inner corners — emerged as a significant attractiveness predictor in studies analyzing what distinguishes conventionally attractive faces. A positive canthal tilt (outer corners higher than inner) correlates strongly with ratings of attractiveness in both men and women.

Facial symmetry has been linked to developmental stability and genetic health since the 1990s. Research by Randy Thornhill and Steven Gangestad found that more symmetrical individuals are rated as more attractive and report more dating and relationship success on average. The effect is real but modest — asymmetry alone doesn't determine attractiveness.

Jawline definition (measured via jaw angle and chin projection) signals hormonal health — specifically testosterone exposure. A well-defined jaw is consistently rated as masculine and attractive in male faces, and as strong and confident in female faces. This measurement differs from most online “jaw tests” in that it uses actual geometric angles rather than subjective ratings.

The 10 metrics explained

Facial Symmetry

Left-to-right balance across all major features. Measured as a percentage deviation — 100% is perfect symmetry, which no face actually achieves.

Canthal Tilt

The angle of the outer eye corners relative to the inner corners. Positive = outer higher than inner (associated with attractiveness). Measured in degrees.

FWHR

Facial width-to-height ratio. Width measured at cheekbones, height from upper lip to brow. Higher values correlate with perceived dominance.

Jawline Angle

The angle of the jaw from ear to chin. A sharper angle indicates a more defined jawline; a wider angle indicates a softer, rounder jaw shape.

Hunter Eyes

Composite score based on canthal tilt, eyelid exposure (how much of the iris is visible), and brow position. High scores = hooded, almond-shaped eyes.

Facial Thirds

Division of the face into three equal horizontal thirds (forehead, midface, lower face). Ideal balance is roughly 33%/33%/33%.

Midface Ratio

The height of the midface (brow to upper lip) relative to total face height. Shorter midfaces are generally rated as more attractive.

Eye Spacing

Distance between eyes as a fraction of face width. Ideal eye spacing follows the golden ratio principle — each gap equals one eye width.

Nose Proportion

Nose width relative to face width and nose length relative to midface height. Both contribute to perceived facial harmony.

Lip Ratio

Upper-to-lower lip thickness ratio. Most attractiveness research points to a ratio of approximately 1:1.6, with a fuller lower lip.

Important context: what this test can't measure

Facial geometry is one component of appearance — and appearance is one component of attractiveness. This test measures structural facial metrics objectively. It does not measure expression quality (see our Smile Analyzer), skin quality, grooming, style, body language, voice, personality, or any of the dozens of other factors that determine how attractive someone actually is in person or in photos.

Many people with “below average” scores on individual metrics are considered highly attractive by others. Many people with high scores are not. The research correlations are real but modest — treat this as useful self-knowledge, not a verdict.

The most actionable insights from this test are usually the ones that point to improvable factors: expression quality, photo lighting, posture, and — for longer-term goals — areas where lifestyle changes like training, sleep, and skincare can make meaningful differences.
