I think you're barking up the wrong tree here.

The cover is not intended to be analysed in great detail. It's wholly a subconscious process.

And certainly narrowing a jaw slightly will be aesthetically pleasing on a woman.

Think of it like a slightly out of tune piano key. Used during a single song. Is it really noticeable? Not to many, will it be a better recital if it was intune? Certainly.

Maybe?

Doesn't what's aesthetically pleasing change from person to person? For instance, I don't find most people on magazine covers to be all that aesthetically pleasing -- but I am also aware that there are many who do.
