That's not a good question.
I feel like it's fishing for a list of outward qualities or a pretentious, poetic description of a good and noble person while smashing the former. I'm not going to do that.
For looks - how do we define beautiful? Does it lean more towards hotness and desire or adorable quirks? Conventional beauty, clear cut features, ephemeral illusions? 'I want to touch you' or 'I want to draw you'? Does it count if one of the factors is a general positive feeling towards the person?
I suppose you could say I'm easily captivated by uniqueness, but honestly, plenty of 'unique' looking people are not beautiful at all, to me or otherwise. Not everyone is beautiful and no one has to appear beautiful. Focusing on superficial things for confidence instead of just using them for a boost is harmful in the long term and will warp your worldview.
'A beautiful mind'... could as well stand for anything. Clarity? Kindness? Intelligence? For me, it's always meant a combination of things, but never a set one. You just know when you feel it. Even someone with only qualities that would normally work towards that image might not qualify in the end.
Beauty is not measurable. At least not for me.
