A beauty score that shows its working.
Every beauty score online is four or five measurements added together with weights the site picked. Most will not tell you which measurements or which weights. This one publishes both, reports all six component scores separately, and states plainly what the total can and cannot mean.

One face, looking straight at the camera, no sunglasses, even light. It is measured right here in this browser tab - whichever way you add it, the photo is never sent anywhere.
The score bands
The composite is reported out of 100 and placed in one of five bands. The breakpoints are read off a committed reference distribution of 7,997 measured faces, and each one is the lowest score whose whole percentile plateau clears the claim it carries - so "higher than 95%" is true for every score in the band, not just its top. The two lowest bands carry no population claim at all, by design.
| Band | Score | What it describes |
|---|---|---|
| Classical | 86-100 | Textbook proportions in almost every measurement the tool takes.Higher than 95% of faces measured |
| Harmonious | 83-85 | Strong overall balance, usually with one or two standout features.Higher than 85% of faces measured |
| Balanced | 79-82 | Even proportions throughout, with clear room measured above.Higher than 65% of faces measured |
| Characterful | 60-78 | Proportions that vary from the classical targets - which is what most faces do. |
| Distinctive | 0-59 | Geometry the classical targets score low and people generally don't. The two are only loosely related. |
What goes into the number
- Symmetry, 35%. Paired features compared across the facial centre line. The largest single weight, because symmetry is the measure with the strongest published link to rated attractiveness - modest as that link is.
- Facial thirds, 25%. Hairline to brow, brow to nose base, nose base to chin, scored on how evenly they divide.
- Facial fifths, 25%. Face width divided into five eye-widths, testing eye spacing and outer-face proportion.
- Golden ratio, 15%. Face height against width versus the classical 1.618 target. The smallest weight, because the evidence linking the golden ratio specifically to attractiveness is the weakest of the four.
The method page has the formula, the landmark indices and the reference-set details.
Questions people ask
- What is a beauty score?
- A beauty score is a number a piece of software produces from a photo of a face, usually between 0 and 100 or 1 and 10. Almost every one of them works the same way underneath: detect facial landmarks, measure distances and ratios between them, compare those against a set of target values, and combine the results with weights the site chooses. The differences between tools are mostly in which ratios they use and how they weight them - and in whether they tell you.
- How is the beauty score on this site calculated?
- Four measurements, weighted: overall symmetry at 35%, facial thirds balance at 25%, facial fifths balance at 25% and golden ratio at 15%. Each of the four is itself scored 0-100 from landmark geometry. The weights and the formula are published on the method page, along with the reference distribution the percentile bands come from.
- What is a good beauty score out of 100?
- Against the committed reference set of 7,997 measured faces, the median is 74 out of 100 and half of all faces land between 65 and 80. A score of 83 or above is the top 15%, and 86 or above the top 5%. Scores cluster tightly because human faces genuinely do cluster tightly on symmetry and proportion, so small differences are real. This site never reports where a face sits from the bottom of that distribution.
- Are AI beauty score apps accurate?
- They are accurate at what they measure and misleading about what they claim. The landmark detection and the arithmetic are precise and repeatable. The step that is not supported is calling the output a beauty score, because the correlation between facial geometry and how people actually rate faces is modest, and most tools do not publish their weights so you cannot even check what produced your number.
- Why do different beauty score sites give me different numbers?
- Because they use different ratios, different target values and different weights, and none of that is standardised. One tool might weight symmetry at 60% and another at 20%. One might include eye spacing and another might not. A 78 on one site and a 62 on another is not a contradiction - they are measuring different composites and calling both a beauty score.
- Does a beauty score mean anything?
- It means your face's geometry, measured a particular way, sits at a particular point relative to a reference population. That is a real fact. It is not a fact about how attractive you are, how people respond to you, or anything you should act on. If a score makes you want to change your face, the score is the thing that has gone wrong, not the face.
