SCIENTIFIC FACTS: WHAT MAKES MEGHAN MARKLE SO BEAUTIFUL

 SCIENTIFIC FACTS: WHAT MAKES MEGHAN MARKLE SO BEAUTIFUL

Dr Tim Pearce of SkinViva in Manchester has been analysing Meghan Markle’s face to understand what makes her features so beautiful.

He says: “The overall proportions of Meghan Markle’s face is what’s making her more attractive.”

Most of these ‘proportions’ are down to the scientific rules of proportion, called the Golden Ratio.

What is the Golden Ratio?

The golden ratio known as the Golden Ratio or Phi, it’s a specific geometric ratio (approx. equal to 1.1:618) that represents a mathematics principle of things that are considered beautiful – appearing in all kinds of nature, architecture and art.

And non-surprisingly, Meghan Markle’s face matches perfectly within these ideal ratios of beauty.

The Golden Ratio applies all over the face – from the ratio of the distance between your eyes, to the ratio of the upper & lower lip.

How Meghan Markle’s face fits the Golden Ratio

Dr Tim explains: “Meghan has got a relatively large forehead which is an attractive thing in a female as it puts the ratio of her eyes at two thirds of the whole space of her face – matching the Golden Ratios.

“The position of her mouth also matches the golden ratio perfectly.”

Her lips are also an ideal shape and size, exactly what the team at SkinViva look for when creating a Da Vinci Lip treatment (using Golden Rations).

“Meghan’s lower lip is slightly bigger than top lip, that’s what you want with enough projection that it gets that nice light reflex on it.”

Well defined, with a beautiful crisp top lip, her philtrum and cupids bow are an ideal shape.

It isn’t all down to the Golden Ratio…

Dr Tim Pearce adds

Meghan is definitely symmetrical, which is a big part of why she is attractive

The distance between her eyes and her nose is also exactly the same distance as her nose to her chin. So, there’s a relationship between her eyes, her nose and her chin.

She also has a great jawline that is very straight and it frames her whole face

Finally, the contrast in her face is attractive. She has dark eyes, dark eyebrows makes her best features stand out. That’s why we put makeup on

An oval shaped face is also a desired face shape for a female, so with the lowest point of Meghans face being the bottom of her chin, she fits the ideal.

You too can be as beautiful as Meghan Markle!

If you look at Meghans most dominant feature on her face, it’s most definitely her eyes.

Why? Because there are no distractions.

That’s one of the things we are always working towards in medical aesthetics, to remove the distractions from your most beautiful features – the eyes and lips.

In an Advanced Facial Analysis (AFA), our doctors will analyse your face as a whole, rather than just focusing on one area – such as lips or certain fine lines.

By applying the scientific rules of beauty, looking at your individual anatomy and understanding your psychology, your clinician can draw up a treatment plan

HOW MEGHAN MARKLE'S MAKEUP ARTIST USED AQUAPHOR TO HIGHLIGHT HER FACE

Meghan Markle is known for her beauty secrets, but her makeup artist’s hack to use Aquaphor as highlighter is one we weren’t expecting. In an interview with E! News, the 

now-Duchess of Sussex’s makeup artist Daniel Martin (yes — the MUA who was responsible for her drop-dead gorgeous wedding makeup in May) revealed that he uses the $5 drugstore balm to highlight, and here’s exactly how he does it.

Martin explained that he often uses skin care products to highlight. As for Aquaphor specifically, Martin would dab the product on the high points of the face of high clients, giving them an all-over glow. “A lot of my highlighting is done with skin care,” Martin said. “Before highlighters, you would do highlighting with Aquaphor. Aquaphor will give you that same texture, especially in a photo [when applied] on the high points of the face.”

It makes sense Martin would use Aquaphor as highlight. As Honest Beauty’s creative color consultant, Martin also swears by the brand’s all-purpose Magic Beauty Balm, which he lays over his favorite highlight to intensify the effect. “I don’t use a highlighter product per se, but if I do, I’ll lay it down with Dior — they came out with incredible highlighting palette — and what I’ll do is I’ll take the Honest Beauty Balm and lay it on top of it,” Martin said. “It intensifies the highlight, but because of the texture of the magic balm it gives you that luminosity like you just applied moisturizer.”
