Golden Ratio Face Test
Thirds, five-eye width, eye spacing and face length-to-width, each compared against its reference value so you can see exactly how far off you are.
Front-facing, unobstructed, evenly lit photos work best. Your photo is analysed on your phone or computer and is never uploaded.

These are common aesthetic references, not correct answers. Real faces within about 10% of a reference are indistinguishable to the eye.
The mesh vertex at the top of the head is not your hairline, so we first run the same formulas over MediaPipe's canonical face model to set a baseline, then convert your numbers onto the scale above.

Historical Tools of Anthropometric Facial Assessment: A Systematic Raw Data Analysis on the Applicability of the Neoclassical Canons and Golden RatioAesthetic Surgery Journal 42:NP1–NP10 · doi:10.1093/asj/sjab339Pooled raw measurements across ethnic groups and found no group consistently matching either the neoclassical canons or the golden ratio, with significant interethnic variation. Both were derived from a narrow population centuries ago.
- Farkas et al. (1985). Vertical and horizontal proportions of the face in young adult North American Caucasians: revision of neoclassical canonsPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery 75(3):328–38 · PMID 3883374Tested nine neoclassical proportions on 153 adults. Most held in only a minority of faces, and the vertical ones — the "equal thirds" rule — fared worst. The canons describe an idea, not an average face.
Questions people ask
What are the thirds and the five-eye rule?
Thirds: hairline to brow, brow to nose base, and nose base to chin should be about equal. Five-eye: your face should be about five eye-widths across, with exactly one eye-width between the eyes. They are the two most widely used facial proportion references.
How does 1.618 apply to a face?
The usual claims are that face length divided by width should approach 1.6, and mouth width divided by nose width should approach 1.6. We use 1.45 and 1.5, because faces that actually read as attractive cluster there rather than at a strict 1.618.
What if I am a long way off?
Look at which measure it is. Thirds that run long or short are adjusted with a fringe and brow shape; five-eye deviations are adjusted with liner direction. The result card names the single measure most worth working on.
