Bella Hadid embodies the ideal of beauty according to the golden ratio.
The concept of beauty is a subjective and changing term throughout history… or not. Since ancient Greece, artists, architects and scientists have turned to an equation that defines what can be aesthetically pleasing. It is the golden ratio, also known as the golden spiral, the golden number, the divine proportion or the phi number…-. Mathematicians define it as the ratio between two segments belonging to the same straight line. And for some years this formula has been recurrently applied to the faces of celebrities to find the most beautiful among the beautiful.
And the most beautiful at the moment is supermodel Bella Hadid, according to Julian De Silva, a facial cosmetic surgeon in London who is dedicated to finding the “golden ratio of phi beauty standards”. As De Silva explains to the Daily Mail , Bella Hadid “was the clear winner when we measured all the elements of her face for physical perfection.”
Beyoncé (92.4) and actress Amber Heard (91.8) are in second and third place.
The surgeon details that the American model scored 94.35% perfection after studying the symmetry and proportion of her face taking into account the position and shape of eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jaw and face shape. Hadid tops the list of celebrities who come closest to the beauty ideal largely thanks to her chin, which scored 99.7%. The model is second in terms of the best eyes because she is edged out by Scarlett Johansson.
Bella’s sister, the also model Gigi Hadid, however, does not even appear in this peculiar ranking of the ten most beautiful women made with computerized mapping techniques. In any case, both sisters are the subject of recurring comments on social networks for their aesthetic retouching.
Beyoncé (92.4) and actress Amber Heard (91.8) occupy the second and third place in this list. The singer achieves very high marks thanks to the shape of her face (99.6) and her lips (95.7), and the plastic surgeon considers that “she looks amazing as she approaches 40 years old”.
About Heard, who in 2016 was at the top of this unique list, De Silva assures that “she has a timeless beauty.” The actress got near-perfect ratings for her nose and mouth (99.7) and chin (99.6).
Meanwhile, the performer Ariana Grande, with a total golden score of 91.81% was placed in fourth place mainly thanks to her forehead.
