Wide eyes, full cheeks, and a refined nose are essential features of a good looking face. However, facial beauty is more than the sum of these parts. It's about how all your facial features come together. How your eyes, nose, mouth, cheeks, and jaw just look perfect relative to each other.
In particular, the nose should be straight and balanced, the eyes should stand out, the lips and smile should draw you in, and the cheekbones should round out your face nicely. When facial features are well balanced, the face appears harmoniously beautiful.

More studies report an overall preference for 'feminine' male faces than for 'masculine' ones. It seems that women vary in how attractive they find masculine faces.
