Upload your photo for a science-grounded attractiveness score. We measure the five facial attributes most consistently linked to attractiveness in research: symmetry, jawline, youthfulness, nose proportion, and eye spacing.

"How attractive am I?" is one of the most searched questions about appearance, and also one of the hardest to answer honestly. Attractiveness is partly in the eye of the beholder — but only partly. When researchers ask large groups of people to rate the same faces, they agree with each other far more than the old saying suggests, both within and across cultures. A large 2000 meta-analysis by Judith Langlois and colleagues in Psychological Bulletin found strong agreement between raters, which is why it makes sense to measure the facial features those ratings tend to follow.
This free attractiveness test does exactly that. It doesn't guess how "hot" you are or compare you with celebrities. It measures five geometric properties of your face that research has repeatedly linked to how attractive faces are rated, scores each one, and combines them into a single facial attractiveness score from 0 to 100. You see every component, so you know what's driving the number instead of getting a mystery verdict.
When you upload a photo, the tool runs Google's MediaPipe Face Mesh model in your browser. It places 478 landmarks on your face — the corners of your eyes, the edges of your nose and mouth, your jaw angles, chin and hairline. Every measurement below is a ratio between those points, so it doesn't matter how large your face is in the photo.
| Component | Weight | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Facial symmetry | 35% | How evenly eight left–right feature pairs sit around your facial midline |
| Jawline definition | 25% | Jaw width compared with cheekbone width |
| Youthfulness markers | 20% | Philtrum length compared with the whole lower third |
| Nose proportion | 10% | Nose width compared with face width |
| Eye spacing | 10% | The gap between your eyes compared with the width of one eye |
The tool finds your facial midline from your nose bridge, nose tip and chin, then measures how far eight paired features sit from it: outer eye corners, inner eye corners, upper eyelids, brow arches, mouth corners, cheekbones, jaw angles and nostrils. For each pair it compares the left distance with the right one. A perfectly mirrored pair scores 1.0; a pair where one side sits 20% further out scores about 0.83. The average across all pairs becomes the symmetry component. Symmetry gets the largest weight because it's the most studied single predictor in this area, though, as covered below, its effect is smaller than many people assume.
This compares the width between your jaw angles with the width across your cheekbones. The target is a jaw that is about 78% as wide as the cheekbones: wide enough to look structured, narrow enough to give the face a gentle taper. Much wider reads as square and heavy; much narrower reads as soft or pointed. You can explore this one in more detail with the jawline score tool.
The philtrum — the vertical groove between your nose and upper lip — tends to lengthen with age as the soft tissue of the upper lip descends. A relatively short philtrum is one of the clearest youthful markers in the lower face. The tool measures it as a share of the lower third (nose base to chin) and targets about 22%. The philtrum ratio tool breaks this down further.
The nose component compares the width of your nostrils with the width of your face, targeting roughly 27.5%. The eye spacing component checks the classic "rule of fifths": the gap between your inner eye corners should be about one eye-width wide. Both reflect averageness — the finding that faces close to the population's typical proportions are rated as more attractive. Each has its own deeper tool: nose ratio and eye spacing.
Each component scores 100 at its target and loses points the further your measurement drifts from it. The five component scores are then combined using the weights in the table.
| Score | Label | What it suggests |
|---|---|---|
| 88–100 | Highly attractive | Your measured proportions sit very close to every target |
| 75–87 | Above average | Strong overall structure with one or two features off target |
| 60–74 | Average attractiveness | Typical facial geometry, with a few features off target |
| Below 60 | Below average | Several measurements are some distance from their targets |
To turn your score into a rating out of 10, divide it by ten — a 76 is a 7.6/10 on this scale. Keep in mind that this is a rating of facial geometry, not of you as a person, and not of everything that makes a face appealing in real life.
The tool is built on three of the best-established findings in attractiveness research, each with real limits:
Just as important is what geometry can't see. Skin quality, expression, hair, grooming, body fat and how you carry yourself all affect how attractive people find you, and none of them show up in landmark ratios. A face that scores 65 here can easily be rated as very attractive in person. Treat the score as one structured data point, not a verdict.
The landmark model is consistent, but it can only measure what's in the photo. These habits make the biggest difference:
Some of it, yes. The components most open to change are the ones that soft tissue affects:
If you want to see exactly which features are holding the score back, the facial harmony score looks at seven proportions at once, and the full Facemaxify analysis goes further with 25+ ratios and a personalised improvement plan.
The test gives you a facial attractiveness score from 0 to 100 based on five measured features: symmetry, jawline definition, youthfulness markers, nose proportion and eye spacing. Scores of 75 and above are above average, 60–74 is the typical range, and 88 or higher means your proportions sit very close to every target the tool uses.
Anything from 75 upward is a good score on this test, and 88 or higher is excellent. A score in the 60s is typical: it means most of your features are close to their targets, with a few slightly off.
Yes. Divide your score by ten to get a rating out of 10 — a score of 72 is a 7.2/10. If you want a rating on the looksmaxxing community's harsher 1–10 scale, try the PSL rating tool.
The most common reasons are photo-related: a slight head turn lowers the symmetry score, a close-up selfie widens the nose, and tilting your head changes your vertical proportions. Retake the photo straight on, from further away, in even light. If the score is still lower than you'd like, remember that it only measures geometry — skin, expression, grooming and style aren't part of it.
Yes. The same five measurements are taken for everyone. The targets are general proportions rather than separate male and female ideals, so the jawline component in particular is a middle-ground target — men with very square jaws and women with very narrow, tapered jaws may score a little lower on it than their real-world appeal would suggest.
The landmark model detects faces of all ethnicities, but the scoring targets reflect general aesthetic proportions rather than population-specific norms. Typical nose width, eye spacing and face shape vary between populations, so a face can be very typical — and very attractive — for its background while sitting further from a target here. Read your score with that in mind.
Often by a few points. Better photo technique alone helps, and lowering body fat can sharpen the jawline component. Structural features like bone shape and eye spacing don't change without medical procedures, which should only be considered with a qualified specialist.
No. The free test runs entirely in your browser — your photo is analysed on your device and isn't uploaded to Facemaxify's servers.
All three measure your facial structure, but with different weightings. The attractiveness score leans most on symmetry and includes a youthfulness component. The face rating tool adds a golden ratio check and facial thirds. The PSL rating tool uses the 1–10 scale from looksmaxxing communities and includes canthal tilt and eye shape.
