Side view - Nose

Nasolabial angle

The angle under the nose between the columella and the upper lip. It grades tip rotation and lip posture: small angles read as a drooping tip or protrusive lip, large ones as an overly upturned nose.

What counts as ideal

The ideal band is 97.0 deg to 114.0 deg for both men and women. A reading anywhere inside the band scores a full 10.

Ideal range

97.0 deg to 114.0 deg

How it is scored

Everything inside the band scores 10, and the penalty accelerates the further a reading falls outside it rather than dropping off a cliff at the edge. For the male band, the falloff is measured against bounds of 46.0 deg and 131.0 deg: a reading out at either of those has spent its full allowance and scores about 3. The curve keeps going past them, so an extreme reading still separates from a merely poor one.

Nasolabial angle is one of 67 measurements in the harmony pillar. No single measurement decides a face: each one contributes its own shortfall to a weighted mean, and one hopeless measurement costs a full measurement's worth and never more.
