Telling someone they look good is easy to get wrong — too much and it is uncomfortable, too little and it does not register. This page collects compliments about beauty and appearance, ranked by reader votes so the ones that actually land well sit at the top. They range from simple and sincere to more elaborate. Useful for a message, a card, or saying out loud to someone who does not hear it often enough. The highest-rated ones tend to be the specific ones, which is worth noticing.
