It is indeed hard to define facial beauty. Generally on the internet it is observed that 1. Having good skin. 2. Looking clean. 3. Being fairly well presented. 4. Adequate self-care. 5. Bright eyes. 6.Thick hair are essential.

I think these features are essentially Cocasian. {Who are classed as Caucasian?
Following Meiners, Blumenbach described the Caucasian race as consisting of the native inhabitants of Europe, West Asia, the Indian peninsula, and North Africa} ~ Source: Internet

Beauty does not correspond to what we see. Since in Plato’s view the body is a dark cavern that imprisons the soul, the sight of the senses must be overcome by intellectual sight, which requires knowledge of the dialectical arts, in other words philosophy. And so not everyone is able to grasp the true beauty. By way of compensation, art in the proper sense of the term is a false copy of true Beauty and as such is morally harmful to youth: betetr therefore to ban it from the schools, and substitute it with the Beauty of geometrical forms, based on proportion and a mathematical concept of the universe. - page 50

The definition of Beauty can be derived from the preceding definition of it as an object of pleasure apart from any interest. For that which makes us conscious that our feelings of pleasure is independent of any interest can only be evaluated this way. It must contain grounds for pleasure for everyone. For, since [pleasure] is not based on some inclination of the subject (for any other premeditates interest) and since he who judges feels entirely free with regard to his appreciation of the object, he cannot explain his pleasure on the basis of any personal conditions. ~ Page 265
