the evidence for the attractiveness of "hunter eyes" is pop culture and not science
while the concept describes a positive canthal tilt, deep set position, and horizontal shape, there is no peer-reviewed evolutionary psychology research supporting it as a universal attractiveness cue
scientific evidence from digital face manipulation studies shows a clear preference for larger eyes
this preference is linked to evolutionary baby schema and health signaling.
eyelash length has a researched optimal ratio
scientific studies on eyelashes find attractiveness peaks at a specific length (about 0.33 or 1/3 of eye width), seen as an honest health signal
this effect is observed across different ethnicities
scientific consensus points to larger, more open eyes as the evolutionarily preferred feature
