Beautiful snub-nosed women. Ideal facial proportions and the golden ratio for men and women

After rhinoplasty, their noses look terrible. Our selection includes celebrities who, by their example, confirm the saying: the best is the enemy of the good.

Paris Hilton

Since childhood, Paris Hilton dreamed of correcting 2 things in herself: small breasts and a big nose. Parents tried to dissuade the girl from operations, but she was adamant. And if the socialite was lucky with her breasts, then the rhinoplasty was not very successful.

Courtney Love

Courtney Love has two passions: a wild lifestyle and trips to plastic surgeons. In an interview, the star admitted: “I acted in films in the 80s, and let's be honest, I had a really big nose. This schnobel was only suitable for radio. I had a rhinoplasty and a new nose opened all the doors for me. In six months the whole world has changed.” The nose has really become smaller ... Only now it is so crooked that the widow of Kurt Cobain has to carefully choose a good angle for the photo.

Melanie Griffith

Due to the constant experiments with plastic surgery and injections, Melanie Griffith's beauty has disappeared today. It all started with an unsuccessful rhinoplasty: despite the fact that the actress's nose was almost perfect, she still decided to slightly correct its tip. But Melanie's plan failed: rhinoplasty ruined the shape of the bridge of the nose, and instead of a straight nose, the actress has what she has.

Demmy Moor

Demi Moore was also the victim of an unsuccessful rhinoplasty. The actress wanted to make the back of her nose narrower, but instead she got a crooked bridge and an asymmetrical nose.

Lara Flynn Boyle

Lara Flynn Boyle's career went downhill due to unsuccessful plastic surgery. Why the actress decided to adjust her already graceful nose is a mystery to us. As a result, today Lara has something more like a bird's beak.

beyoncé

Beyonce was quite happy with her nose, she just wanted to make wide nostrils more graceful. The singer made several rhinoplasties, but all were unsuccessful. As a result, the singer's nose looks too small against the background of the rather large features of the girl's face.

Janet Jackson

In all likelihood, Janet Jackson followed in the footsteps of her late brother Michael. In pursuit of a perfect nose, the singer has done so many rhinoplasties that it is already impossible to fix the horror that exists now.

Lil Kim

Lil Kim is another star unhappy with his nose shape. The singer made several operations, but they cannot be called successful. Deviated septum, asymmetrical nostrils - looks creepy.

What face is considered truly beautiful in compliance with all the proportions of the "golden section"? The answer to this question worries many men and women. Although there are no uniform rules, there is a basic principle. All parts of the face (cheeks, nose, eyes, ears, chin, cheekbones and eyebrows) should be in perfect harmony with each other.

"Golden section" - is achieved when the shape of the face and the dimensions of each of its parts are in harmony and correspond to the main proportions. What are these proportions?

The proportions of the ideal face according to the golden ratio of Leonardo da Vinci

The famous Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci created a model back in the 16th century, in which he reflected his observations and conclusions about the proportions of a correctly folded body and face. Here's what his drawings looked like:

The gist of his rules is::

The nasolabial angle must be greater than 90 degrees. This nose looks straight.

To measure the parameters of the nose, you will need photographs of the face in profile (preferably close-up for measurement accuracy), pencil, ruler and protractor. Studies have shown that the ideal height of the tip of the nose is 67% (2/3) of the length of the back.

The ideal angle formed between the columella and the highest point of the nasal tip is 45-46%. This proportion is considered to be in harmony with other parts of the face.

If the nasolabial angle is less than 90 degrees, the nose will appear pubescent. A harmonious nasolabial angle (the angle between the line of the forehead and the back) is considered to be an angle equal to 30-40 degrees

The measurement results cannot be taken as a direct guide to rhinoplasty. So, rhinoplasty can help create the desired shape of the nose. But will it be in harmony with your facial features? Will other abnormalities worsen, such as deep or narrow eyes, thin or too full lips, obvious nasolabial folds, etc.

Modern scientists have defined facial harmony as follows:

• The distance from the line of the eyes and the line of the mouth should be equal to 36% of the total length of the face.
• The distance between the pupils is equal to 46% of the width of the face.

And what is the opinion of the correct proportions of the face of modern scientists?

Discussing the correct facial features in women, German scientists conducted interesting experiment concerning ideal proportions, according to ordinary people. They arranged to observe how a group of men and women compared the beauty of photographs real people dressed in the same clothes computer models perfect face.

Here are the conclusions they came to. Beautiful are considered: narrow faces with dark thin eyebrows, a small narrow nose and high cheekbones. Preference is given big eyes With thick eyelashes and thin eyelids. If we talk about the data of a handsome man, then a noticeable strong-willed chin is added to this image.

Interestingly, the experiment revealed that such data in the aggregate do not occur in life. This is possible only if we are talking about creating an identikit that is able to make the ideal features and proportions of a woman's face.

What does the perfect face look like according to Stephen Markworth's theory?

Stephen Markworth is an American scientist who for thirty years studied the proportions of the faces of the most beautiful actresses and ordinary women. He revealed that the absolute harmony of the face corresponds to the proportions of the "golden section" - 1:1.618. This means that the correct size mouth is 1.618 wider than the nose, and so on. These ratios are approximately shown in the following photo:

To make it easier to determine whether these ideal proportions correspond, he created the so-called mask scheme of the ideal face and ideal smile. These masks look like this:

And here's what the mask of the perfect smile looks like.

The perfect female face from the past.

However, the principles of Stephen Markworth cannot be considered an absolute measure of harmony and beauty, since only beautiful women of European appearance participated in his studies. And this is only the third part of the human race. It is no secret that among the representatives of the Negroid or Mongoloid race, there are quite a few truly handsome men and women.

How to change the proportions of the face and make a beautiful nose?

Every living person necessarily differs in individual appearance with its own advantages and disadvantages. By nature, we prefer to hide flaws and emphasize virtues.

Today, there are quite a few ways to achieve harmony in the image and improve appearance. Here is some of them:

Makeup. The art of makeup has been known since ancient times. With the help of powder, blush, cosmetic pencils, lipstick, eyeliner, mascara and shadows, we can visually reduce or enlarge certain parts of the face. Skillfully done makeup allows a person to immediately change very much outwardly for the better.

When applying makeup, it is correct to adhere to the so-called “harmony lines”. They are shown in the following diagram:

Hairstyle. The right haircut, the presence or absence of a bang and its shape can have a tremendous impact on the visual perception of the shape of the face.

Choosing the right haircut is a whole science, which, in fact, is what stylists do and teach. When choosing a hairstyle, they first start from the shape of the head.

A nose like the Duchess of Cambridge is the most popular order among patients of facial surgery clinics, both for men and women. But the profile of the duchess is not the only reference for those who are determined to change their face. We tell you whose noses are in trend today, and whose ones are not, and why.

The Duchess of Cambridge sets a lot of fashion and beauty trends, for which royalty idolized by many photographers, designers and stylists. Now, plastic surgeons have also fallen in love with Prince William's wife: according to statistics, last year the number of people wishing to go under the knife increased by 15%. One of the most popular surgeries is rhinoplasty. The most popular nose shape is like that of a beloved duchess.

Among patients, both men and women can be observed equally often. Ideally straight, making an angle between the forehead and lips at exactly 106 degrees - the shape of the nose, which has already received the name "Duchess" in professional circles, suits both sexes the same.

The nose of Kate Middleton in the surgeon's office is asked most often - according to this indicator, the wife of Prince William overtook such divas as Rihanna, Scarlett Johansson, Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Lopez.

According to Dr. Julian de Silva, a specialist at the Harley Street Cosmetic Facial Surgery Center, it is the Duchess's perfect face that inspires many women to change something in their appearance through surgery. “Kate is a very beautiful woman, and this, perhaps, main reason why rhinoplasty is now at the peak of popularity,” the doctor comments.

Rhinoplasty is the most popular facial plastic procedure, but it is also one of the most difficult. It requires the surgeon not only to be technical, but also to have a certain artistic vision of the final result, because the face of each patient is individual, and everyone has their own idea of ​​beauty.

A girl may desperately want a nose like that of a beloved star for a long time, but when she comes to the surgeon’s office, she may well hear the fatal words: “This form will not suit you.”

It is important to understand that, when deciding on rhinoplasty, you can, of course, be inspired by photographs of stars, but the final decision must be made, focusing primarily on yourself. And for this you need to clearly understand your "initial data" and only then choose the appropriate option for you personally. We analyze the 10 most popular nose shapes and find out if they need correction.

Duchess

Perfectly straight, this shape is considered the standard of a beautiful nose. Equally well suited to both women and men, "duchess" is the most popular request sent to the surgeon's office. It is traditionally believed that the owners of such noses are spontaneous and creative people.

Expert comment: This is the Gold Standard. If you happened to be born with such a nose shape, then accept: there is no way to improve it.

Greek nose

Like the "Duchess", this nose shape is perfectly straight, but there is no pronounced button on the tip. This shape of the nose is quite common in models.

Surgeon's comment: hallmark The Greek nose is a long and very graceful bridge of the nose. The second most popular form desired by patients.

Roman nose

This shape is characterized by a distinct bridge of the nose, which can be either arched or slightly tilted forward, and the tip is slightly beveled towards the bottom. Looks great on a man's face.

Expert comment: A high protruding bridge of the nose will give the face masculinity and a little severity. On the female face this shape of the nose does not look very organic, so many rightly want to correct it with the help of rhinoplasty. The main problem after the operation is to make sure that new spout(which will obviously become much smaller) will be able to breathe easily and freely. To do this, it is best to use a tissue graft, and then straighten the septum - and it will be better to breathe and look more beautiful.

Roman nose

This is the classic nose shape, but with slightly enlarged nostrils. A straight profile, as well as a proportional tip - not too big and not too small - give the eagle shape nobility and aristocracy.

Expert comment: Most often, it is men who ask for the eagle shape. A feature of male rhinoplasty is that the surgeon needs to avoid anything that can give the future nose femininity - for example, a concave bridge of the nose or an upturned tip. In this case, an aquiline nose is ideal.

Nose with bulbous tip

Recently a plastic surgeon from London, Dr. Julian De Silva, which specializes in calculating the ideal proportions of appearance, together with a team of doctors, conducted great study and brought to clean water the most beautiful women in the world.

"What kind of research is this?" you ask. We answer. This is a program for calculating the attractiveness index. It is based on the "golden section" - the standard that the ancient Greeks brought out to determine the ideal proportions.

So here it is Julian took photos of celebrities, uploaded them to the program and got stunning results. most beautiful woman recognized in the world ex-wife Johnny Depp Amber Heard (30). Won second place (35) . According to the results, she has just the perfect brow line. Closes the top three beauties Kate Moss (42). She has the prettiest forehead! What about lips?

The most beautiful nose in the world

And here's a list of stars who have the most beautiful nose in the world

– 99,7%
2. Marilyn Monroe – 99,6%
– 99,56%
4. Helen Mirren – 98,2%
5. – 97,1%

The most beautiful eyes in the world

Divide the distance between the eyes by the length of one eye. Next, you calculate the location of the eyes in relation to the rest of the face. To do this, divide the distance from the nose to the edge of the eye by the distance from the edge of the eye to the corner of the lips. Well, you still remember that, ideally, the figure should be equal to 1.618?

And here are the stars who have the most beautiful eyes

– 95,95%
2. – 95,85%
3. Marilyn Monroe – 95,8%
4. Kate Moss – 95,75%
5. – 95,14

The most beautiful lips in the world

Not tired yet? Then go on. Here you need to get the value 1.618 three times. Go! Area: Divide the width of the lower lip by the width of the upper lip. Length: Divide the length of the lips by the distance between the lips and the base of the nose. Distance from the nose: measure the distance from the corner of the lip to the opposite corner of the nose and divide by the length of the base of the nose.

Let's try to figure out whether "genes are our everything"? Or good heredity is still not enough?

Geneticist at Atlas Medical Center, Atlas genetic test analyst

Breast size

The contribution of heredity to this important parameter for girls is indeed significant. For the most part, the chest is made up of adipose tissue: you probably noticed that you are just starting to lose weight - and curvaceous disappear somewhere. But there are also skinny girls whose breasts are the envy of many. This is because the size of the breast as a whole is affected by the size of the mammary gland itself, which is determined by the genes. Today, science knows as many as seven genes (ZNF703, INHBB, ESR1, ZNF365, PTHLH and AREG) that regulate the growth of the mammary glands. By the way, three of them also determine the flip side of the coin: with certain variants of them, which are responsible for large breasts, the risk of developing breast cancer is increased.

Hair thickness

You can use volumizing shampoos as much as you like, do lamination and other procedures, only new hair will not grow thicker from this. And then again nature gave leading role genes. As a rule, the thickness of hair in humans ranges from 0.04 mm to 0.1 mm and is determined by the diameter of the hair follicle, in which dividing cells give rise to the hair. There is an EDAR gene that directly affects the activity and rate of this cell division. If a person is a carrier of a variant of the EDAR gene, which is particularly active, the cells for the future hair in his skin are also actively dividing. As a result, hair grows thicker. By the way, it is this gene variant that is characteristic of many inhabitants of Asia and Africa.

nose shape

But with facial features, everything is complicated. This topic is one of the most interesting and at the same time unexplored by geneticists due to its complexity. However, several genes that affect the shape of the nose in a certain way are already known. For example, variants of the DCHS2 gene, which regulates the connection of cells in the dense tissues of the body, are responsible for the shape of the septum of the vestibule and the angle of the tip of the nose, as well as for the protrusion of the nose beyond the plane of the face as a whole. And the SUPT3H and RUNX2 genes, which are responsible for the development of bone and cartilage tissue, affect the width of the bridge of the nose. The width of the wings of the nose also depends on genetics - the GLI3 gene is responsible for it.

Hollywood smile

A beautiful smile, and most importantly, healthy, problem-free teeth is the dream of many. Fortunately, heredity is not so important here, genes that can seriously affect the beauty of teeth are very, very rare. So everything is in your hands. Regular visits to the dentist, daily oral hygiene and stuff like that.

Slenderness

How many pain-filled appeals on the “eternal” topic every day turns into a void: why Katya constantly eats donuts and remains thin, and I can’t eat a piece of cake once a month ... And although scientists have not yet found specific “harmness genes”, genetics affects where our energy, obtained from those same donuts and other products, will be mainly spent. So, one of the variants of the UCP2 gene makes our body spend a huge amount of energy on heat, while the other version is not very concerned about this. Accordingly, if a person spends most of the energy consumed on the production of heat, he will not have time to gain weight. But it is important to say that sports and proper nutrition no one has canceled: based on genetic data, you can achieve fantastic results and always be in great shape.
