Do you measure up? Scarlett Johansson and Duchess of Cambridge have the perfect NOSE: Plastic surgeons say the ideal shape is upturned at 106 degrees.
- The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel all have 'perfect' noses according to the study.
- Measured from the lip up, the optimum angle of rotation at the nasal tip should be 106 degrees to enhance a woman’s looks, new research claims.
- A nose that is rotated less than 90 degrees looks long and masculine.
- Dr Omar Ahmed, of New York University, said attempts to capture the ideal shape have been ‘elusive and ongoing for decades’.
- Researchers tested public reaction to a range of different angles and rotation to identify the 'perfect' nose.
- She has been voted the sexiest woman alive, but now it emerges that one reason may be that Scarlett Johansson apparently has the perfect nose.
Plastic surgeons have analysed the ideal shape for a woman’s nose and found it should be slightly upturned.
They found Scarlett Johansson, The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Beckinsale and Jessica Biel all fit the bill.

THE 'PERFECT' NOSE
Plastic surgeons have analysed the ideal shape for a woman’s nose and found it should be slightly upturned.
Measured from the lip up, the optimum angle of rotation at the nasal tip - the amount the nose is turned up - should be 106 degrees to enhance a woman’s looks, says new research.
A nose that is rotated less than 90 degrees to the face looks droopy, long and masculine.
But an expert said surgeons always strive to get the perfect look for the individual, rather than sticking to a textbook formula.
‘There is a range of rotation that’s usually applied, which is 90 to 100 degrees for men and 95 to 110 degrees for women – this study has ended up somewhere in-between’ said Charles East of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons.

U.S. plastic surgeons behind the research claim there has been no universally accepted standard that defines the most aesthetic combination of nasal features until now.
Dr Omar Ahmed, of New York University, said attempts to capture the ideal shape have been ‘elusive and ongoing for decades.’
He said: ‘Throughout history artists and scholars have been engrossed in the pursuit of capturing what constitutes beauty.
‘Dating back to ancient Egypt artists idealised facial proportions in their works.’
In a bid to ‘design’ the most beautiful nose for a young woman, the researchers tested public reaction to a range of different angles and rotation.
They used digital portraits of young white women aged 18 to 25 years, which were ranked online by almost 4,000 men and women drawn from the same age group.
They were asked to compare photos of women with noses 96, 101, 106, 111 and 116 degrees to their face.
The study used focus groarch stipulating 104 and 108 degrees as being highly favourable angles.
