This phenomenon could be, in a way, explained by differentiating between the functions of the right and the left side of the human brain.While the left side of our brain is more inclined towards logic and rationality, the right side controls our creativity and emotional expression. And since the right side of the brain controls left side of the human body, it can be said that the left cheek displays or exhibits a greater degree of emotion or beauty, which could be pleasing to the eyes of others.Have you ever gazed at both sides of your face in the mirror, trying to determine your “best” side? New research says you need gaze no more. The left side probably looks better, according to a new study released April 20, 2012. Kelsey Blackburn and James Schirillo from Wake Forest University say their work shows that images of the left side of the face are perceived and rated as more pleasant than pictures of the right side of the face. They suggest the difference might be due to a greater intensity of emotion exhibited on our left sides. Their work is published online in the journal Experimental Brain Research.
