What is Beauty? Is it really the most "average?"

I just ran into (was directed to, from World Science) a fascinating experiment trying to determine what beauty consists of. One theory is that an average of faces is going to be considered most beautiful, based on the brain being most comfortable with the most average.

Here's a link to go play with this idea yourself, I found it quite intriguing.
