Here Are the 10 Most Beautiful Women in the World, According to Science

Everyone is beautiful in their own way—that’s one message we’ll always hold true. But because science has to be a know-it-all, it’s come up with a list of the most beautiful women in the world.

According to Woman’s Day, there is an ancient Greek philosophy called the Phi ratio that’s supposed to determine how beautiful some people are according to their face ratio and symmetry. Dr. Julian De Silva of the Centre for Advanced Facial Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery used this method along with computer facial mapping to determine what famous women truly are the most beautiful in the world, with people like Kate Moss and Jennifer Lawrence making the list. 

Honestly, we’re not all that surprised by this list because yes, these women are all STUNNING:

1. Amber Heard 91.85%

2. Kim Kardashian 91.39%

3. Kate Moss 91.06%

4. Emily Ratajkowski 90.8%

5. Kendall Jenner 90.18%

6. Helen Mirren 89.93%

7. Scarlett Johansson 89.82%

8. Selena Gomez 89.57%

9. Marilyn Monroe 89.41%

10. Jennifer Lawrence 89.24%

The numbers that you see next to the names mark the percentage of facial symmetry that that person has. So according to this method, Amber Heard has the most symmetrical face and is, therefore, the most beautiful.

Dr. De Silva also notes that with this study, they have solved some “of the mysteries of what it is that makes someone physically beautiful,” and that with the results, he was able to see what celebrities who have “facial features that come close to the ancient Greek principles for perfection.”

So now before you run off and measure how far apart your eyes and ears are, just remember, we are all beautiful in our own way. <3 XOXO
