The answer

Marrying a woman of good religion and character is paramount and preferable, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "A woman is married for four reasons: for her wealth, for her lineage, for her beauty, and for her religion. So, choose the religious woman; may your hands be soiled (with dust/gain)." There is no harm in seeking beauty.
