How attractive is David Bowie - Facial Harmony Analysis
Singer-songwriter and actor - Ziggy Stardust, Heroes, Labyrinth
David Bowie's profile is the stronger half, with lips sitting right on the line, a well-angled nose and a face that carries its depth evenly from brow to chin. Head-on is where it reads unusual, with wide-set round eyes on a narrow face, no bone support under the eye, a flat midface and a short chin.

Areas to improve
5 features stand out - fixing what is fixable here moves your score the most.
Narrow midface
-0.59The face is narrow for its midface height, which stretches the center of the face vertically.
Face width to height (front view)
Round eyes
-0.38The eye opening is tall for its width, which reads rounder than the classical almond shape.
Eye aspect ratio (front view)
Protruding ears
-0.35The ears angle out from the head beyond the typical range, which draws attention from the face.
Ear protrusion angle (front view)
Wide-set eyes
-0.34The eyes are far apart for the width of the face, creating a wide or stretched midface appearance.
Eye separation ratio (front view)
Long philtrum or short chin
-0.27The philtrum is long for the chin below it, which can make the lower face read bottom-light.

David Bowie's strongest and weakest features
David Bowie scores 5.09 overall, 4.65 front and 5.80 side. His nose and lips are his strongest features, and his costs come from the face shape and the eye area seen head-on.
His cheekbones sit high, and the angle from the base of his nose to his outer eye corners is ideal. His nose is sized correctly to the space between his eyes, his mouth is the right width for his nose, and his neck width is ideal. In profile, his brow ridge, facial convexity and facial depth are in band, his nose angles are ideal, and his lips sit on the Burstone and E-line references.
His largest cost is that his midface reads long for the width of his cheekbones, at 1.64 against an ideal of 1.96 to 2, which takes about 0.59 of a point. His eye openings read round, at an aspect ratio of 2.17 against 3 to 3.5, and his eyes sit wide across the face, with a pupil distance of 51.1% of cheekbone width against 45.7 to 46.8%. His ears are angled out at 16.3 degrees against 10 to 11.5. His chin is short for his philtrum, at 1.78 against 2.15 to 2.45, and his jaw corner is softer than ideal, at 148.9 degrees against 140 to 142.5.
