# Eyebrow Low-Setness

The gap from pupil level to the inner-brow level, scaled by eye-opening height.

## What is measured

Calculation: Absolute pupil-to-inner-brow height ÷ average eye-opening height

## Why it matters

The brow-to-eye gap changes the amount of visible space above the eyes. Scaling it by eye height makes the result sensitive to both brow placement and eyelid opening.

- Lower: brows sit closer to the pupils relative to eye height.
- Higher: a larger relative brow-to-pupil gap.

## Where the idea comes from

Evidence: FaceIQ adaptation. This is a FaceIQ landmark-based description of facial shape. The linked research provides background on facial measurement or perception; it has not directly validated this exact formula or its score.

## A worked example

A 12-unit brow-to-pupil gap over a 10-unit eye height gives 1.2. If the eye squints to 8 units, it becomes 1.5 without moving the brow.

Example values explain the calculation. They are not a target range.

## How to read your result

The name describes low-setness, but the number increases with separation. Relax the brows and avoid squinting.

## Research & further reading

These sources explain the history or related evidence. FaceIQ’s score weights and reference ranges are model settings; the papers do not collectively validate the scoring system.

- Biller & Kim (2009). [A contemporary assessment of facial aesthetic preferences](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19289680/). Compared ratings of edited brow and nose features on four female models. The authors emphasized individual facial harmony; this is context for feature relationships, not a test of every brow metric.
