Study: People broadly agree on who is good looking or not, and it affects every aspect of life
• Raters agree about who is and is not attractive, both within and across cultures.
• There seem to be universal standards by which facial attractiveness is judged.
• Attractive children and adults exhibit more positive behaviors and traits than unattractive children and adults
For cross-ethnic agreement the average reliability was r = .88, cross cultural agreement was even higher, r = .94 ... these results indicate that beauty is not simply in the eye of the beholder
These findings are powerful evidence that, contrary to popular belief, attractiveness effects extend beyond the mere "opinions"

Studies: It takes less than one second for people to accurately judge beauty
Beauty can be identified and processed in under 1 second
Palomares et al. (2018) found a similar result that only 33 ms were necessary for a high degree of agreement

Studies: Babies can easily differentiate between attractive and unattractive faces
Newborn babies can easily differentiate between attractive and unattractive faces, suggesting that face recognition is hardwired at birth, rather than learned
Slater at al. took pictures of a variety of faces and asked adult subjects to rate them for attractiveness on a scale from 1 to 5. The researchers then searched for pairs of photographs that were similar in all respects – in brightness and contrast, for example – but at opposite ends of the attractiveness scale
They then presented these paired photographs to newborn infants, who ranged in age from one to seven days old. All babies were still in hospital after birth. One researcher held each infant upright about 30 centimetres away from the two photos. Another stood out of view and noted where the babies eyes were directed
On average, the babies spent 80% of their time looking at the more attractive face than the less attractive one
This is solid evidence that the social constructionist view of beauty is false
