aside from averageness and symmetry, you've missed out the third of the big three - hormonal markers i.e. sexually dimorphic traits e.g. the masculine jaw and the feminine lips.
I'm currently looking at some aspects of facial attractiveness in my dissertation research as it goes, see my spiel below :
"In your face" is a study forming part of the research of Laura J Brown, a 3rd year BSc Biological Anthropology student at the University of Kent, Canterbury, United Kingdom.
The aim of the study is to examine male perception of female facial attractiveness.
The only requirements of this study are that you are male and heterosexual (if you are female, feel free to pass the link on to any suitable male friends though!).
***Complete the study and you could be 1 of 3 guys to win a crate of beer!***
The online questionnaire shouldn't take more than 30mins to complete. Please note that some of the questions are of a sexual nature, so only take part if you are happy to answer questions of this kind.
You may withdraw at any point should you no longer wish to participate, by simply exiting the website.
The questionnaire will involve you being shown a series of female facial photographs (there are 45 in total) and answering a set of corresponding questions. Please answer them honestly. Your responses will be kept confidential.
