The polish you speak of is not the relevant factor in determining attractiveness. Height, facial features and non-obesity are the characteristics described, and with the exception of obesity, are largely immutable.

In other words, a professionally done photo of a goblin-like human will be viewed more negatively than a selfie of an attractive person.

And yet the study only considered the application of filters, which are pure "polish".
