Study: Lips and Eyes as Key Features of Attractiveness

Lips are the main feature of female attractiveness, while eyes and hair are the main features of male attractiveness, according to a study. In a gaze tracking experiment, over 150 people looked at photographs of different people. It was found that men, when evaluating female appearances, most often fixate their attention on lips—on a subconscious level, they perceive full lips as a sign of youth and health. Women, on the other hand, pay more attention to men's eyes and hair as signs of reliability and social status.
