Are There Any Natural Facial Beauty Among Female Celebrities?

Perceiving beautiful face is affected by two main factors which inherent on the face or object that is perceived or seen. Two factors are:
1. Facial proportion
2. Facial expression

Facial proportion is all physical features on the face, and closely related to the symmetry and proportionality. While facial expressions are non-physical, such as impression, countenance, articulation, and its similar. And subjectivity is found on the second factor.

The perception of people towards a beautiful face, often are the same when referring to aspects of facial proportion. For instance, most people agree that Aishwarya Rai's face is beautiful because her face shape is proportional and her face skin is smooth. And this facial proportion factor that makes a lot of female celebrities take shortcuts, that prefer to do facial plastic surgery and or facial cosmetic surgery.

They do things like that is in order to find a face and its features that are proportionate and symmetrical. This was confirmed also by the amount of research that resulted in a conclusion that the face is categorized as a beautiful face, is if the face is proportionate and symmetrical. In addition, a proportional face, or have a regular pattern, would produce an aesthetic value. An example is the curved features on face, where in fact, formed from the sequence of Fibonacci numbers, which is so patterned.

With so many scientific facts which justify that proportionality and symmetry are key elements of a beautiful face, celebrities increasingly eager to have a face that they desire. Even they do not hesitate to spend millions of dollars to set up a face that is not natural at all, or fake. A top famous female celebrity who became a public discussion regarding this matter is Megan Fox. If you keep an eye on Megan Fox's nose shape, then you will find that its shape was too perfect.

Ironically, they seemed to forget that facial beauty is also strongly influenced by facial expressions. Aesthetic value of facial expression can be captured by the eyes of people, when celebrities "do something without artificial." And actually, this is what better reflect the natural facial beauty. An example of aesthetic value of facial expression is when Emily Deschanel is doing autograph with patience, sincere and serious for her fans.

Once the proliferation of facial cosmetic surgery among celebrities, a very logical uncertainty arises: Are there any natural facial beauty among them?.

Perform Facial Cosmetic Surgery, Have You Considered It Carefully?

Facial cosmetic surgery performed in order to beautify the face, could indicate two things:
1. That people who do this is lacking confidence
2. That people who do this is less a sense of gratitude to God
However, it is their right, the people who decide to undergo facial cosmetic surgery.

Actually the more interesting to talk is not on the two points above, but at the profit and loss of a facial cosmetic surgery (advantages and disadvantages). On this day where everything can be represented by digital numbers, or can be measured by more specific and accurate, is to be a highly possible when before someone does facial cosmetic surgery, first She or He calculates on What percentage of profits or losses, both for long-term and short-term.

As a simple example is Jocelyn Wildenstein, She included a group of people who really loses because we all already knew that her face became very messy and horrible. Could be, Jocelyn Wildenstein did not first carefully consider or count to at least two of the following:
1. Without having to perform plastic surgery, She already had a beautiful face
2. If before She did plastic surgery, her beautiful face is 90%, Is the plastic surgery will give its 10%, so that her face is beautiful to be optimal at 100%?

Above example, only illustrates a simple calculation. The plastic surgeon must have a lot of sophisticated equipment-tools-programs, which may, one of which is a tool that is able to produce projection images of the face after surgery. These images are then shown to the candidates of facial plastic surgery. And this is the moment or crucial stage for the candidates to make a decision; will undergo the knife or will not.

Description mentioned above is only limited to technical aspects, in fact, there are still many non-technical aspects that need to be considered first before performing facial cosmetic surgery, therefore, the candidates know exactly advantages and disadvantages. As example is the perception of people, most people still think that facial cosmetic surgery is bad behavior, and this will definitely affect the psychological condition of the candidates, because it indirectly, the candidates will be considered as a person who behaved badly. Though not necessarily.

Of all, a simple consideration that can be used is that when a face is not beautiful because of lack of proportional, symmetrical and aesthetically, a facial cosmetic surgery does not guarantee to make a face 100% proportional, symmetrical and aesthetically. And do you know?, turns out that Thai actress, Taksaorn Paksukcharoen, still looks very beautiful even though her nose is too big (not proportional).

Behind The 2009 AAFPRS Fact Of Facial Plastic Surgery

There is a very measurable fact as stated by the AAFPRS that for the year 2009, 84% of candidates for facial plastic surgery are women. On the other hand, there is again a fact which though not as specific and valid as the first fact, but contains a strong indirect correlation between both, i.e a piece of Oscar Wilde's quote: A woman's face is her work of fiction.

This is an article that has no empirical validity of truth, but rather to an article that tries to tell you that there is something very catchy between the two facts above. The strong indirect correlation as mentioned in the first paragraph, then leads to a question: Does the first fact was showing or proving the truth of Oscar Wilde statement?.

In simple terms, woman is female human which has the nature, attitude and character that contrasts with man. If woman is gentle, sensitive, shy, spoiled, weak, loves flowers, loves pink and much more, then man is the opposite. There is also a comprehension which states that woman is created with 9 lusts and 1 reason, on the contrary, man is created with 9 reasons and 1 lust.

Could be, this is what makes a man had difficulty in understanding how a woman thinks. They are created in the world of sense, therefore, a woman's face could not reflect the actual identity of the woman herself. They loved to color the lips with lipstick, make eyelash become flicks, wearing eye shadow so that the eye area looked shady, including, perform rhinoplasty, bhleroplasty and other facial plastic surgeries.

All it is fictional world being played by women, just as is implied in Oscar Wilde quote above, where, it is also denoted by the figures 84% of people who perform facial plastic surgery.

Facial Cosmetic Surgery And Its Effect On Celebrities Popularity

Popularity, this is a word that is most relevant with celebrities, and also being chased by celebrities. There are many factors that could affect the popularity of celebrities, such as their behavior, achievement and appearance or style, and others. These factors are then detailed to factors that are smaller and more specific, where one of them is about things on their face.

Then when talking about the faces of celebrities, there's one thing that is very relevant as well, namely facial cosmetic surgery. And interestingly, when a celebrity doing a facial cosmetic surgery, then in fact this is already is one factor that can increase, but also decreased the popularity of its celebrity. For shortly, the popularity of celebrity may be increased because she or he was the subject of people conversation everywhere. However, for lengthy, people will wonder: Why would she or he do that?, And trends that might happen is that what she or he did was to decrease the popularity of celebrities themselves.

Why can?, because there still exists a strong thoughts on people that facial cosmetic surgery is bad behavior. Celebrities's facial cosmetic surgery is a strong indication that celebrities do not have high confidence. Even more than that, a facial cosmetic surgery is an embodiment of the sense of being ungrateful to God. This will be a factor that is very counterproductive to the meaning of term "popular", ie fact or condition of being beloved by the people.

Maybe celebrities think that by choosing to do under the knife on their faces, will make their face to be beautiful or more beautiful. Does have a point a little, and probably will make their popularity rise, but it is only apparent popularity. People who have not recognized them, it's going to love their beautiful faces. But not for people who already know them, mainly on their fans. Their fans will give a bad note due to facial cosmetic surgery is bad behavior. Including those who do not recognize them, but later knew that those celebrities are just fake beautiful faces. As a result, their popularity decreased.

Why Do People Interpret Woman Beautiful Face Differently?

There are two men, let's say John and Mike, saw a woman sitting in a lawn chair. She had a square face shape, thin lips, sharp nose and thick eyebrows. Then there was a conversation between John and Mike;

John: "Mike, do you think her face is beautiful?"
Mike: "Yes, because She has a square face shape and thin lips..."
John: "You're right Mike, She was beautiful. But not for her square face shape and thin lips, but because of her thick eyebrows and sharp nose..."

The conversation provides an illustration of how subjective and complex, related to the matter of woman's beautiful face. Maybe Mike thought that a square shape symbolizes steadfastness, but instead John thinks that a square shape indicates inflexible attitudes.

So when they chew over woman's beautiful face, arises the cognitive processes that lead them to so many things, or let's say the variables that have direct or indirect linkage. If it does happen similarity of thought between them, it is to those aspects that are fundamental, universal, and true or very logical. For example: the woman has a very clean facial skin. Simple, logical flow of a very clean facial skin to a beautiful face is, cleanliness of an object (face) is unsightly eye. This is synonymous with Clean is Beautiful. And this is a fact that it really makes sense for any human.

And the process of John and Mike in interpreting or perceiving the woman's beautiful face is defined by Wikipedia as Face Perception. In full:

Face perception is the process by which the brain and mind understand and interpret the face, particularly the human face.
The human face's proportions and expressions are important to identify origin, emotional tendencies, health qualities, and some social information. From birth, faces are important in the individual's social interaction. Face perceptions are very complex as the face expressions involve vast involvement of areas in the brain.

From Wikipedia definition above, read and understand carefully at the words in italics and bold, namely:

1. Human face's proportions
2. Human face's expressions
3. Involve vast involvement of areas in the brain.

The above three factors that caused why do people interpret or perceive woman beautiful face differently or why woman beautiful face is a highly subjective matter, particularly is the third factor. So when interpreting or perceiving a woman beautiful face, it is a thought process which must involve the EQ and IQ.

Furthermore, Where is actually part of the human brain, which are specifically implement the process?. This part is called: Fusiform Face Area. As Wikipedia defines:

The fusiform face area (FFA) is a part of the human visual system which might be specialized for facial recognition, although there is some evidence that it also processes categorical information about other objects, particularly familiar ones. The FFA is located in the ventral stream on the ventral surface of the temporal lobe on the fusiform gyrus.
Medial surface of cerebral cortex - fusiform gyrus

Associated to the third factor; Involve vast involvement of areas in the brain, one of the most vital functions of human brain is as an organ for storage of memory. All human activities, both think and act will be remembered in the brain, in which, will be influenced by (local) factors such as environment, culture, customs, education and much much more. Therefore, for instance, an American will perceive woman's beautiful face differently with perceptions of an Asian, European, African and Australian, and vice versa.

One Of The Most Famous Female Faces In The World Is Not A Human Face

Have you ever thought about something like what is mentioned in the title above?. Certainly many people who recognize the faces of Angelina Jolie, Megan Fox, Margaret Thatcher, Mother Teresa, or maybe Madonna. But when they are given a question like this: "Whose (female) face is the most famous in the world?", They would find it difficult in order to give a convincing answer.

It's very understandable because there would be so many factors that can be used as considerations. The only way to determine a legitimate answer both on the accuracy and the validity aspect, is with a Poll, with a note that the poll should actually represent, or reflect the world public thinking. But it will be really long in order to find the answer and it sounds impossible.

(Please note that this is only a presumption which has weak validity). Probably, one of the most famous female faces in the world is not a human face, but only a fictitious female figure in a very famous painting, i.e. the Mona Lisa. Most likely everyone also knows that this beautiful painting is a masterpiece of Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci, which was created during the Renaissance in the 16th century.

Perhaps most people will reject this, because this is just a famous painting, not a famous female face. However it is their right and nothing wrong at all about it. But it is also necessary to note that one of intrinsic factors that cause the painting to be so famous, none other than is the face of Mona Lisa itself.
The Face of Mona Lisa
The face of Mona Lisa, one of the most famous female faces in the world
Mona Lisa's face in this painting has a very strong imagery and character, this is what makes the painting seem so alive. The characteristic facial expression that can be captured is Mona Lisa mysterious smile. In addition, there were also many people who interpret that Mona Lisa's face is beautiful.

And those who interpret the face of Mona Lisa as a beautiful face, is not based on physical facial features, but on very deep expression on Mona Lisa's face. A calm eye glance, prominent supraorbital foramen, thin eyebrows, vertical long nose, small lips, double eyelid, very thin hair right at head's crown with the middle stroke and a little plump face, all of which lead to deep expression and mysterious smile. To be sure, just click to enlarge the image and discover its deep expression.

Facial expression itself has even raised the figure of Mona Lisa, so as to appear, She is the real figure of a woman, just like famous women as mentioned above. And Mona Lisa was also more famous than its painting. People are more accustomed to mention "Mona Lisa" instead of mentioning "Mona Lisa Painting."

The existence of Mona Lisa is also indirectly evidenced by the Mona Lisa Mania.

A Woman's Beautiful Face Is A Sort Of Tool That Deliberately Created By God?

Did you know that the human face express a lot of things?, So it makes every person who looked at would have different perceptions. Human face is also sometimes becomes a kind of mystery, where in fact, it is caused by the expressive nature of the face itself, which is very high. In addition, the face is also a section where the five senses are, thus, making it a part of the human body's most special.

If the face alone is special, it will become even more special if it is a beautiful face. Which could be, a beautiful face is a sort of tool that deliberately created by God, whereby, contains many messages of virtue from God's commands, which must be understood and implemented by humans. So when there was a woman who has a beautiful face but the woman behaves badly, then it is not proper and not willed by God. But if otherwise, then the woman is an angel.

Do Women Behavior Affect Their Beautiful Face?

Question in title above actually refers to the characteristics of the beauty of a woman's face, which has a subjective nature. I also think that among billions of people around the world, probably, there's no exactly the same opinion in terms of perceiving the beauty of a woman's face. Even if there are several similar opinions anyway, most likely the perceptions to which aspects that are universal, such as woman facial skin cleanliness and softness, clarity of eyes, facial proportions, and others. Or it can be said, similar perceptions would be more inclined to physical aspects, or visible facial features.

Once at the beginning, I think that the distinction or boundaries between beautiful woman with woman's beautiful face is clear and measurable matter. Besides that, the face is just a part of the human body so that it will become a matter that is more specific. Turns out it is not, cause we really feel it in our brain and mind when we perceive the beauty of a woman's face. And this caused a kind of refraction between when perceiving a beautiful woman with when perceiving a beautiful-faced woman.

Furthermore, we inevitably have to follow our brain and mind, in order to understand and recognize the beauty of a woman's face. Where in fact, this is described as: beautiful face is a subjective matter, or face perception is subjective.

However, often subjectivity in perceiving the beauty of a woman's face to be too biased, even though this is not a wrong thing. But also, there is a part within us, in which, this part extremely deny to this bias one, i.e. the ratio of us.

As an illustration and example; many people will perceive that the grade of Winona Ryder's beautiful face is reduced because of She often did shoplifting (theft of goods from a retail establishment), this is the effect of woman's bad behavior. Or conversely, the grade of Aishwarya Rai's beautiful face was growing because of She will donate her eyes after her death, and this is the effect of woman's good behavior.

From the illustration above, rationally, clearly there are two variables that are not correlated, beautiful face with the behavior. But if the beautiful face was replaced with the variable of beautiful woman, then there will be a true indirect correlation.

So based on the ratio, a woman behavior will not affect her beautiful face (physically in particular), but more influential to the image of her as a beautiful woman.

How Do Men Interpret The Woman's Beautiful Lips?

The sexual nature of men is powerful, and We all know that. How powerful of the sexual nature of men, one of which can be driven by a visual object. Strongly associated with men's sexual desire that aroused by a visual object, then: How do men interpret the woman's beautiful lips?. There are three ways of interpretation of men who are very likely they will use:

1. The men will conclude that the woman's beautiful lips are lips that would make them aroused. That is, when they looked at the lips of women, their sexual desire has not been involved yet.

2. They were first aroused by the woman lips which though very ugly-shaped, for then they conclude that the lips were beautiful.

3. Or maybe, they remain objective that woman's beautiful lips is lips that has aesthetic aspects, such as elegant philtrum, comely cupid's bow, bloom lower lip.

Apparently because of the sexual nature of men is powerful, and it is really the nature of men that can not be disputed, it is likely the men would combine above three ways.
Taylor Swift Beautiful Lips Shape
Simply put as follows, Taylor Swift's lips is beautiful lips with three criteria as detailed in the third way above. Then just observe clearly the Taylor Swift's lips shape: the cupid's bow, every curve of her lips, and especially the lower lip that hangs down and looks jutted out. It is a shape of lips which is very fitting and comfortable for a kiss from men lips, right? (Sorry if it is not polite).

This means that there are close linkages between the woman's beautiful lips aesthetically, with the woman's beautiful lips in men interpretation with their sexual nature involved. Where one of men sexual acts, usually starting with a kiss. And Kirsten Dunst's thin lips which is not more beautiful than Taylor Swift's lips, it is more difficult for men to make a big kiss.

What Are The Characteristics Of Female Beautiful Face?

Beautiful face is a subject matter which is always interesting to discuss. Then on what its interesting side?, None other than is the aspect of subjectivity itself, which is high. Therefore, not infrequently We hear statement that beautiful face is dependent, or beautiful face is in the eye of the beholder.

But whether so high its subjectivity, OR, simply because of there are still many people who can not make a boundary interpretation, between the physically beautiful face (or scientific), with a beautiful face that is not physical (or psychological)?.

The answer is in the second phrase, which sometimes, there are still many people who can not distinguish or make a boundary interpretation. Because of high subjectivity is only applicable in interpreting the beautiful face that is not physical. Conversely, the physical beautiful face is objective, it can be tested through an experiment, with a level of truth that can be universally accepted.

And in terms of the physical beautiful face, Braun, C., Gruendl, M., Marberger, C. and Scherber, C. along with the caretaker: Prof. Dr. A Zimmer from the University of Regensburg, Germany, has conducted a study on the Characteristics of Beautiful Faces in the year 2000-2001. Result of this study also presented at the German Students Award 2000/2001.

Today is day 21 since the Poll titled: "Who is the World's Most Beautiful Faced Woman, Aishwarya Rai or Angelina Jolie?" published on May 29, 2010. Very probably, many people assume that this is just a poll that is less useful. In a separate point of view, is to be recognized that the presumption was not wrong. But it also does not mean correct.

Previously need to be understood more carefully that the Beautiful is a subjective matter, including in terms of assessing a beautiful woman. Where in the past few years, the assessment of people in the world for whom the most beautiful woman in the world just as it was split in Two. Most people assume that the one is Aishwarya Rai, and partly chose Angelina Jolie.

Now that becomes important is not Who is more beautiful, but that the People's Choice or Vote is a sign of a perspective of a person, or the way someone thinks. In simple terms, when someone chooses Aishwarya Rai, then that someone has a way of thinking of A, and when someone chooses Angelina Jolie, then He or She thinks in the way of B.

To assess the most beautiful woman in the world is a very complex thing, the more complex it is increasingly requiring a more in-depth thinking. Therefore, this poll was made more specific, with the focus of assessment is only on the Face. And the Woman Face is a Shape, which can be assessed by scientific means with high universality. And a beautiful face, could be interpreted as a face which is Pleasing to the Eye.

You Really Don't Have To Change Your Face Shape

Sometimes there's just a question that is quite unique, or arguably funny. And the question was simple: How to change into an oval face?. But in relative terms, the question can not be blamed, because in today's everything becomes possible. Yes, one way is with a facial plastic surgery. But that was too extreme and risky is not it?.

Sure, beautify the face is the right of all people, in this case women. But, whether the need to change the face shape. Face shape is one of the structures on the human head, which is outward or congenital. If We do have to beautify the face, do in the most simple and possible way. I.e. by making the face shape as the basic element for determining facial features of an appropriate or proportionate to the face itself.

Because only the facial features that can significantly beautify the face physically. By referring to face shapes, in turn, can be determined hairstyle, eyebrow styles, and even potentially could be determined also the color of lipstick, mascara, the type of jewelry, eyeglasses and many others. Because both face shape and facial features are things that are physical. So that could be scientifically measured or identified the level of its beauty. And it is inverted when using facial features to determine (change) the face shape.

And if You do not have a face shape that is proportional, or symmetrical, remember that when the face shape is not proportional, it does not mean bad or ugly. But it has unique characteristics, which are often referred to as Exotic face. Just list the 10 most influential Bollywood actress, there would be Kareena Kapoor's name among them. Since Kareena Kapoor has an unusual face, namely Hexagonal Face. But with her hexagonal face, She has succeeded in animating the character of Kaurwaki in Asoka.

The easiest way and it makes sense to change the face shape is to diet. A simple example, a round face is strongly influenced by the cheeks, besides zygomatic bone and jaw bone. When fat is reduced or lost, the face shape will change. Moreover, it is the growth of facial bone and skull, but rose only happen at a certain age.

So, any face shape We have, not We who judge its beauty, but others. And other people have an entirely different perspective, because Beauty is very subjective.

Does Talking About Beautiful Face Is A Useless Thing?

Have You ever heard a quote like this before: "The essence of science is its application." It seems You would say: "Yes, I've heard this before." And if not wrong, this short and simple quote but deeply meaningful, is a quote from Albert Einstein. And if after all this quote is not from Einstein, but its meaning will be very understandable to everyone.

For a while, now We shift to the topic of the Beautiful Face, but not about what the meaning of the Beautiful Face in terminology, or the other, but rather about the benefits of discussion with the topic: Beautiful Face. Perhaps most people will think that this is something less or even no benefit. They would prefer other topics such as trade, foreign exchange market, building construction, or other topics that are more real and measurable.

Actually, they're not wrong, but also does not mean that they are true 100% in terms of taking a topic to be discussed. Because when We discussed about an issue, then naturally (because of human nature is curious) We will discuss all the things that are correlative, where, all correlations will only be collected optimally if We do a discussion with the focus.

The more We focus the discussion, the more correlations are collected and meet at a point of linkage. And these links point (conclusions), could even be a linkage, which previously did not occur at all in our brain. And this happens when We are discussing about the Beautiful Face. I must admit that I previously never thought that facial beauty is to have strong links; in point of fact with scientific matters.

Maybe You also just found out that facial beauty can be measured with the theory of Golden Ratio, Fibonacci Numbers, Golden Spiral and other scientific matters. Which previously may only have to do with lipstick, mascara, face powder, anti-aging cream and similar ones. And finally, We return to the first paragraph, where "The essence of science is its application."

Now We come to know that Science, especially those that are exact or measured, such as the Golden Ratio is useful and can be applied to interpret a Beautiful Face. And very possibly, the Golden Ratio must be applied within a facial plastic surgery. So, talking Beautiful Face has reminded us that a Phi is equal to 1.618. I mean, talk about the Beautiful Face was also a useful thing.

The Basic Formula Of Physical Beauty

High level of subjectivity in the interpretation of beauty, it continued at a more narrow scope, that is the beauty of the face. However, besides that scientifically a facial beauty is to be measured so as to produce a universal measurement, it turns out, a physical beauty can be described in a formula.

Generally Thinking Psychology Blog on What Is Beauty?, describing it as the following basic formula:

Adherence to Social Consensus + Genetic Fitness = Physical Beauty

Social consensus will be things like the current body size preferences, fashion/adornment preferences, and so on. Genetic Fitness is WHR, facial symmetry, and things like that.

So take a genetically fit (’biologically attractive’) woman, and throw her in any space and time. Provided she can match up to the status quo of that time, she’ll always be a catch. And even if she didn’t match up, she’d probably be seen as attractive to some extent. Likewise, a woman who isn’t as genetically attractive can ‘trade up’ by adhering to the social consensus.

In other words, take Jessica Alba, and fatten her up, or use brass rings to make her neck seem longer, or pluck her hair line back and make her skin pale – and she’d still be considered beautiful in Ghana, Northern Thailand, or Elizabethan England, respectively. Do all three, of course, and she’d be an absolute smash in a goth club.

Which become substantial in the two variables from the basic formula of Physical Beauty is on one thing, namely Health, both Soul and Body.

Beautiful Face Women With Their Facial Distinctiveness

Facial Distinctiveness is actually quite similar to Facial Cuteness. Both produce facial attractiveness, which would become a hallmark in the face of the woman. The difference is that the facial distinctiveness is more specific than facial cuteness.

When the woman has a highly facial distinctiveness, then it would be an advantage for the woman, where the woman's face would be more easily recognized by many people. And for female public figures such as actress, singer, TV broadcaster, etc., a facial distinctiveness can indirectly impact positively on the popularity of the woman.

The most obvious example is Miranda Kerr with dimples in her cheeks. That because it is very distinctive, Miranda Kerr's dimples even have fans on Facebook. A distinctive feature on the face, also has its own Beauty and Exotic. And usually a congenital facial feature.

The following are Women with their facial distinctiveness.

1. Aishwarya Rai with big eyes
2. Angelina Jolie with blooming lips
3. Miranda Kerr with dimples in her cheeks
4. Kareena Kapoor with hexagonal face
5. Sandra Bullock with cleft chin
6. Cameron Diaz with a hooked or crooked nose
7. Kajol with very thick eyebrows
8. Kirsten Dunst with thin lips.

What Is Exotic Face?

The term "Exotic" in the post title above, is a word that is often misinterpreted by people, as well as the people who actually understand the term of exotic, they sometimes also still wondering what exactly is the meaning of the term exotic. Which may be, the people who are still curious, is due to be triggered by a perception or statement by other group of people, for example, that: "Aishwarya Rai has an exotic face."

In terminology, exotic is an adjective, which means being or from or characteristic of another place or part of the world. Thus, exotic may be illustrated by an alien. Then, the essence meaning of exotic as an Adjective, is Unusual or Mysterious. However, for the use of the word exotic in everyday conversations, would be more fitting for a definition: Unusual.

While synonyms are: bizarre, different, extraordinary, outside, peculiar, strange, striking, unfamiliar, way out, and weird. And with antonyms: familiar, normal, ordinary, usual. Note that the terminology is accumulative, so it would be more antonyms and synonyms. Like the term of Beautiful, exotic is also Subjective. The difference is in the context of use, that exotic is more specific than beautiful.

Exotic also leads to things that are visible, such as a movement, an object, and a shape. For example: exotic dance, exotic hairstyle, exotic lipstick color and many other exotic ones. So the function of the word exotic in a phrase is to explain. Well, the meaning of the Exotic Face is actually already be known. That is an unusual face, a different face, a strange face, an unfamiliar face and many other interpretations.

But where is its exotic in the phrase of exotic face?. Pay attention to the definition of the word exotic to: unusual. Then underline also that the face is an object and or a shape. The essence meaning of the word unusual, will be clear if there is comparator. Then, compare the woman facial characteristics commonly accepted in science or in community with a woman's face. Take as an example is the face of Kareena Kapoor.
Kareena Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Facial Characteristics
Usually, the characteristics of a woman's face is: smooth jaw bone and not so prominent, face is oval and round. When compared with the face of Kareena Kapoor, then, Kareena Kapoor's face is unusual, or Exotic. Because it has very prominent jaw, and face mixture of square and diamond. While Aishwarya Rai's face is not exotic, because it has more usual facial characteristics.

Just as a cute face, an exotic face is a facial attractiveness that has its own aesthetic.

Golden Ratio, Fibonacci Number And Golden Spiral In Designing Curve Features As Basic Elements For Facial Beauty

Apart from the assumption that facial beauty is a subjective thing, but, it still has a scientific aspect, which is universal and scalable, and can embody a facial beauty itself. These aspects are the Golden Ratio, Fibonacci Number and Golden Spiral.

In simple terms, the Golden Ratio is an ideal ratio which is denoted by φ (Phi). And Phi is represented by an irrational number, 1,618. This number then becomes the benchmark in determining a measure, which requires two variables. A simple example: If You will create a rectangle with a horizontal line of 10 cm, How many centimeters are needed for the vertical line, in order to produce a proportional rectangle?. Then, divide the horizontal line of 10 cm with 1,618, the result is equal to 6,18 cm for the vertical line. And all proportional shapes around us, its ratio is always close to Phi or 1,618. And this is a scientific proof, which can not be rejected by common sense.

Then what is meant by the Fibonacci Number?. In mathematics, the Fibonacci numbers are the numbers in the following sequence:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ....

By definition, the first two Fibonacci numbers are 0 and 1, and each remaining number is the sum of the previous two. Some sources omit the initial 0, instead beginning the sequence with two 1s (Wikipedia's Fibonacci Number). Then, what is the scientific linkage between the Fibonacci Numbers to the Golden Ratio?.

Observe the row of numbers above, then divide 3 by the previous figure, namely 2. Then divide 5 by 3, divide 8 by 5, and so on by the same method. All of the distribution of those numbers, will result in or very close to 1,618. Or close to the Golden Ratio or Phi. That is, the Fibonacci Numbers clearly represents a proportionality.

Referring to the Fibonacci Numbers, then generate a combined squares, as shown in the picture of Fibonacci Blocks above, a tiling with squares whose sides are successive Fibonacci Numbers in length. By itself, the Fibonacci Blocks is a form of proportional, eye pleasing, or beautiful.
Golden Spirals

Starting from the aspects of the Golden Ratio, then Fibonacci Numbers and Fibonacci Blocks, eventually led to the Golden Spiral. As Wikipedia interprets, in geometry, a golden spiral is a logarithmic spiral whose growth factor b is related to φ, the golden ratio. Specifically, a golden spiral gets wider (or further from its origin) by a factor of φ for every quarter turn it makes.

Exactly, most relevant features to the Golden Spiral are Curved Features. So, the Golden Spiral also termed by some people as the Golden Curve.

Scientifically, the process of designing the Golden Spiral, or Golden Curve, is very trace, systematic and measurable, which starts from the Golden Ratio. The Golden Spiral above, represents only 6 Fibonacci numbers (1,1,2,3,5 and 8), but at least, it have designed 9 spirals or arches or curve features. And each spiral or a curve is definitely proportional. It's definitely beautiful.

Curved features, found in insects such as snails (an animal created by God with so unique), the shape of human ears, eyebrows, cupid's bow on human lips, wavy hairstyle, Grace Kelly's facial features, Aishwarya Rai's big eyes, Elvis Presley's hairstyle and crested (which has been heartbreaking millions of girl), and much more.

In essence, curved features on the face are basic elements for woman facial beauty.

The Face Popularity Of Coed Magazine's Google's 50 Most Popular Women On The Web, On Google Advanced Image Search

Probably, You've read or heard Coed Magazine's the 50 Most Popular Women on the Web According to Google (published on April 15th, 2010). The news was quite impressive, although it became quite controversial because it assumes that Justin Bieber (a beautiful-faced boy) is a girl.

In addition, there is still controversy because several famous women's names are not on the list. Among them are: Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz, Aishwarya Rai, Emma Watson, and maybe there is still much missed.

Then what about the 50 Most Popular Women's Face Popularity?, Carried away by curiosity, on May 14, 2010, beginning at 2:56 AM, a search for Faces of 50 most popular women on Google Advanced Image Search executed. The goal is simple, to what extent the popularity of their face images on the web according to Google Advanced Image Search for Face.

To get maximum results, search setting is: Safe search is off for any size and any color of the face images.

And look at the results below, Lady GaGa is still on top with 1.65 million face results, but what happened with Ke$ha?, with the query of Kesha (without $) only raises 115,000 results, it makes Ke$ha is on the bottom position. And by using the "$", the result is also not much different. And Betty White's face?, She is now on Top 5, relatively She's a "beautiful-faced woman".

And just like in Google Web search, the names like: Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz, Emma Watson and Aishwarya Rai, was also overlooked. For example is Cameron Diaz with 499,000 results. However, it should be understood that Google is just a Search Engine. The list is below.

A Simple Difference Between Beautiful Woman And Beautiful Face

Interpreting The People Interpretation On A Beautiful Face

"Misguided" interpretation of Beautiful Face, which progressively increases or continues to accumulate, in fact shows that the human intelligence capacity is increasing globally. 100 people can have quite different interpretations, but 100 people were also able to mutually recognize the truth and plausibility of each.

However, there is an interval for each person, which is the process to admit the truth of its interpretation. And this process requires timeframe varies from each person, but it will meet on one point: "Yes, You are correct that the Beautiful Face is...blah...blah...blah". Why is this so?, Because subjectivity in the interpretation of Beautiful Face is high. That is, the interpretation of Beautiful Face from someone, actually, will be understood or recognized by others.

Then, where is the existence of such subjectivity?, Its existence is in thought and feeling. Where, good (see: suitable and accurate) thought and feeling is very dependent on intelligence (IQ) and emotional quotient (EQ). Two variables that are opposites, but also has aspects that are closely related. And certainly, IQ and EQ of each person is to have different capacities, so that finally led to a Beautiful Face interpretation, which is different.

A wealthy businessman might have concluded that Angelina Jolie's face is beautiful, but on the contrary a lowly coolie would say that Angelina Jolie's face is just ordinary. Yet interestingly, there was a Moment or Point in time, which will make the lowly coolie to recognize or understand logically that Angelina Jolie's face is beautiful.

And basically, interpreting a Beautiful Face is referring to two things, First is, the interpretation of Beautiful Face by treating a Face as an object (Physical). That is, every part of face such as nose shape, eye size, chin shape, face shape, and others. Then every part of face, treated the same as a table shape, house shape, car shape, and others.

The second, interpreting a Beautiful Face by reading the impression that emerged from a face, or expressions and body language that may arise from a face. And the second is that it actually has a high subjectivity.
