1. Hey, interesting study. I think I know why none of your faces fit though, you are using the female template. The male template can be found here: http://www.beautyanalysis.com/images/Malemask_printable.jpg . There is also an interesting article on the accuracy of this model: http://www.femininebeauty.info/stephen-marquardt-phi-mask-refuted There is something I was wondering if you could help me with though, I want to put the male mask on my face using adobe elements. I can’t figure out how to superimpose the mask over my own image. I was wondering if I sent you a photo of my face if you could put the mask on for me. No problem if you don’t have time.

   Thanks,
   Adrian

2. Hi, my name is Charis and im 27 years old female.
   can we really place beauty to numbers?
   I thought that we can, but i was wrong.
   I will not talk about the math and i don’t know about 3d images, but i took wold class beauties like Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer, Elizabeth Taylor, Angelina Jolie, Gisele Bundchen, Marilyn Monroe, Megan Fox, and Sophia Loren.
   The result was that according to the mask criteria, ALL of them but Marilyn Monroe and Megan Fox, do not much the mask, and actually they belong to the “average face”.
   Marilyn monroe and megan fox are matching perfect, BUT Marilyn monroe without makeup was considered a plain face and her eyes were really wide open, which that it is considered as a fault, and she is not a beauty icon she is a sex icon.
   Second Megan Fox, which match the mask , she is beautiful but not anything extreordinary and she can’t be compared with the other world beauties as Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor, Cindy Crawford and others.
   Im greek, i have close set eyes, and the mask matches exactly to me, but the eyes.
   When i use liquify and i widen the eyes i look like a frog, of course the mask is 100 perfect, so my face in numbers is perfect but in reality i look like a frog. Not just average, ugly.
   I have the pics, mine and the celebrities that are famous for their beauty.
   I also believe that the person who has said that the mask represents more musculing facial characteristics is right, the fashion world has as top models and beauty icons models that are very faminine and they don’t fit the mask at all. Like the models above. Maybe other models they do match perfect, but not the most famous ones.
   So your mask tries to make everybody the same, and beauty is about to make the difference to be special, not with math but with what we just like in the eye and looks pleasant, whats that?i don’t know and who cares?
   i know for shure it doesn’t translate to your mask, and using photoshop i proove that, with the most practical way.
   I took the biggest beauties, world class , and they totally fail to match your mask.
   if u can try to disprove me.
   But don’t tell me thats even models are not perfect because we are talking about the most desirable women in the world. Sophia Loren was voted the most beautiful woman of the last millenium. Elizabeth Taylor has shaked the whole wolrd with ther beauty , her eyes, men and women.
   Im a big fan of Marilyn Monroe, but she was plain without make up, just attractive, nothing special. With make up she was the good perfectly looking, but the above women aren’t less than her. And the whole Marilyn looking is fake, when her face was posing the same sexy poses without make up , these poses wasn’t sexy at all, she was little weird and ugly , I lately prefer natural beauties, without to much makeup.
   I can find many gilrs that matches the mask and they aren’t famous and they aren’t anything special.
   i can mail u my pics and see yourselves

   Thanks

5. I think you are a boob for putting the opposite gender template on. Imagine telling someone they had a small house because you thought it was a lego model! Weird little person.
   Maybe you really are a woman?

8. i think you’re using the wrong mask.. it’s originally for females. there is a more appropriate mask for males to see their beauty..

10. Hi. My name is Eric and I think I have found a calculation to simplify the golden ratio with the human face without using Fechner’s rectangular mask theory. Does anyone know who can help me with this? I’ve tried speaking with a math professor at my university but he wasn’t much help. He really didn’t have prior knowledge on the subject. If anyone knows who can help or where I should go from here, please let me know. Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

11. I don’t think the Golden Ratio applies to how beautiful a person is or how attractive they are. The Golden Ratio applies more to how symmetrical your face is. You don’t have to be beautiful to have a symmetrical face. Although the human mind is programmed to find symmetry beautiful.

12. okkk. i dont understand how this has to do with the golden ratio. is each section a part of the ratio? idk help me out. there is too much smart math words out there to understand any of what it does.
