What is BeautifulPeople?

BeautifulPeople is an online dating platform that hosts exclusively “beautiful” people. The Beautiful People dating site was created in 2002 by three friends who wanted to create a dating site where members would always land on a match they considered a 10 in the looks department. Over the past 21 years, the site has rejected over 8.5 million applicants, and currently has just over 750,000 members.

I know you’re dying to know who determines if applicants are beautiful enough to be let in and luckily the site is very straight forward about how applicants are judged. After a new application is submitted, existing members have 48 hours to vote on whether the applicant is beautiful enough to join the community. Voters are shown a photo of the applicant and must vote one of the following; “Beautiful”, “Hmmm OK”, “NO” or “Absolutely Not”. Only profiles with majority “Beautiful” or "Hmmm Ok” votes are given access to the site.

Sign-up Process

TThe sign-up process to the site was pretty in line with what has been said on other beautifulpeople.com reviews. Registration was fast and easy and included me giving a valid email address and providing information about myself, such ad my age, location, hobbies, and general interests. Once I submitted my form, I was sent a verification link to my email inbox, and once activated, I was given a message that my profile was now going into voting for the following 48 hours.

The first BeautifulPeople review I came across was short and lacked a ton of info, so it was obvious that the writer didn’t make the cut, but my profile was approved with an acceptable 137 points. Once I received notice that I was accepted into the community I had to submit profile authentication. To do this, new members must take a picture of themselves holding a piece of paper where you write your username and current date. This verification process helps to prove that you actually are the same person as the profile photos that you submitted during sign-up.

After photo authentication, I was officially in and now was able to weigh-in on who was hot enough to make it into the community. This was pretty exciting and at times, I felt like I was judging in a beauty contest.

Beautifulpeople Website Usability

This wouldn’t be a worthy Beautiful People dating review without me describing the feel of the platform. The interface is sleek and very easy to navigate. At the top of the homepage you’ll find a navigation bar to easily move from one feature to another. At the left hand corner of the homepage, there is a heart icon that shows you all of the members who have liked you. Your homepage menu on the left will also show you who has sent you winks, liked your photos, and has visited your profile more than 3 times.

Your BeautifulPeople.com homepage will show you profile photos from new members, some of the most popular members, and those who are celebrating a birthday that day. If you want to change it up, you can set your homepage results to only show profiles that match your criteria, like ideal age range, location, and hair color.

Profile Quality

I was reading a Beautiful People dating site review that made note of the detailed profiles on this site. I didn’t find the profile to be much more detailed than other quality dating sites, but I agree that profiles give a good glimpse into someone's personality. In addition to details about the person behind the profile, you can view their public photo gallery. But one surprising bit about this site that I did not read of in a previous BeautifulPeople dating review are the private photos.

Many profiles have photos that are hidden from members. If you want to have a look at these photos, you’ll have to reach out to them and ask!

Every profile has conveniently placed buttons for jumping into a chat or sending a message, or a wink. There are also report buttons on every profile for you to use if you feel that the profile is a fake or you are witness to any suspicious or abusive behavior, or inappropriate photos. You can also block profiles if you wish to cut off contact with a community member.

Platform Features

This site gives away just enough free features to get you going. It's hard to browse through all of those beauties and not want to take it further. Some of the free features include sending winks and creating favorite profiles. Other paid features include writing and reading messages, looking through private photographs, and using Live Chat. The free features can only take you so far and it is almost certain that if you like what you see, you will soon be willing to sign up for a paid membership to unlock all that the site offers.

BeautifulPeople App

As you will likely find highlighted in any beautifulpeople.com review, one of the popular site features is the mobile app. The app carries over all of the same features as the website and notifications are sent straight to your phone. It is a close reflection of the desktop version of the site and very easy to navigate, as most apps are. The BeautifulPeople app is free to download and available for Android and iOS.

Credits and Payment Methods

As mentioned earlier in my Beautiful People com review, anyone can try their hands at being accepted into this exclusive community free of charge. Some of the free features include voting on pending members, sending winks, using the search engine and adding profiles to your favorites. But you’ll have to pull out your wallet if you want to really benefit from the site.

Memberships start at $25 per month if you choose a month-to-month subscription. As is true with most subscriptions, the longer you commit, the cheaper it will be. A 3-month subscription works out to be $17 per month, and a 6-month subscription is $12.49 per month. Pretty average pricing!

Perhaps another Beautiful People website review will tell you that you can get by without a membership, but let’s be real: the objective is to connect with site users, not just look at them. You’ll need to purchase a membership to get conversations going.

Is Beautifulpeople Safe?

I have checked out the Beautifulpeople rating on reputable review sites to see what others are saying about this platform. The Beautfulpeople.com review available on Sitejabber only gives the dating site 1.9 stars. Many users feel as if they are being scammed or that the site is simply not worth the money.

I’ve been on enough dating sites to know that there can be sketchy sides to some of these platforms, but that doesn’t mean that the whole site is a scam. It’s always good to keep your wits about you and not share overly personal information - especially bank information.

So Is BeautifulPeople Legit?

We're coming to the end of this BeautifulPeople review and I must answer the big question - Is BeautifulPeople legit?

My answer? Kind of.

Let me be clear; This site is meant for attractive people, and although I have seen a great deal of good looking profile pictures (and private) on this site, there are people present that I consider to be far-from attractive. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, sure, but I came across many photos that truly are far from beautiful. In this sense, the site doesn’t really live up to its claims.

However, there are plenty of features to help you easily connect with others, including site organized in-person meetups where users can get to know each other over wine and cocktails - a nice touch! If you can get over the fact that this dating site is not truly exclusive to conventionally beautiful people, it’s a decent dating site worth trying out.
