Guides
Face analysis guides
What each measurement means, how it is taken and what the research says, in plain words. Every guide links to a free tool so you can measure your own face.
These guides are written from published studies and anatomy references, never from other rating sites, and each one ends with its sources. They don’t tell you what your face should look like. They explain what a term means, how it is measured, what typical values are, and what can and can’t change, so you can read your own result properly.
A good order is to read the guide, then measure: the face shape guide pairs with the face shape detector, the canthal tilt guide with the canthal tilt test, and so on. If you want to know exactly how a number is calculated, the methodology page has every formula.
Face shape and styling

- Hunter eyes, explainedWhat people mean by hunter eyes, the anatomy behind the look, and what can and can’t change it.
- Hooded eyes: the 30-second checkA 30-second check for hooded eyelids, what causes them, and what helps.
- Eye shapes explainedThe common eye shapes, how to tell them apart, and the measurements behind each label.
Proportions, symmetry and the jaw
How faces are measured against each other, and what the research supports.
- Facial symmetry explainedHow symmetrical real faces are, how symmetry is measured, and how much it matters for attractiveness.
- Mewing before and after: what the evidence showsWhat mewing can and can’t change, and what the evidence says about before and after photos.
- Jawline and gonial angleWhat the gonial angle is, its typical values, and how it is measured from the side.
- Facial thirds and fifthsThe classic vertical thirds and horizontal fifths, how to measure them, and typical ranges.
- The golden ratio in faces: what the evidence saysWhat studies actually found about the golden ratio in faces, and where the claim falls apart.
