Is the use of the verb to look meaning appearance both correct in Present Simple and Present Continuous? E.g. You look beautiful today. You are looking beautiful today. And can this rule be applied to the 3rd person singular? E.g. She looks beautiful today. She is looking beautiful today.

Is the use of the verb "to look", meaning "appearance", both correct in both the present simple and present continuous?

E.g.:
1.
You look beautiful today.
2. You are looking beautiful today.

And Can this rule be applied to the 3rd third person singular?

E.g.:
3.
She looks beautiful today.
4. She is looking beautiful today.
Yes and yes.

Please note my changes above. Whenever you give us multiple sentences to look at, please number them. It makes it easier for us to refer to them if we need to.
I have changed the layout of the post so that it is more readable. Don't just write a string of sentences and questions in one paragraph.
