At last, a study has explained why Harry Styles is so mesmerising to look at.

Thanks, science.

Researchers at the Centre For Advanced Facial Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery used The Golden Ratio or Phi formula to analyse the faces of male celebrities to determine who has the most symmetrical faces, and are therefore the most attractive to the human eye.

Harry scored the highest on not one but two parts of his face – the eyes and chin.

His eyes rated 98.15% of the perfect ratio, while his chin got a score of 99.7.

So that’s why photos of Harry put you in a trance-like state. It all makes sense now!

Styles didn’t score number one overall, though. George Clooney was rated the most good looking, followed by Bradley Cooper, Brad Pitt and then Harry in fourth place.

Boys, boys! Come on now, it’s not a competition. You’re all really, really, really, ridiculously good-looking.
