Face Shapes What are you?
Knowing your face shape is the first step to creating a beautiful look Not sure of your face shape? Pull your hair back / close one eye/ look in a mirror/ trace your face on the mirror
What you are looking for is one of the following: Oval/Ideal Round Square Diamond Oblong/Long Inverted Triangle/Heart
Now that you know your face shape... So What?
Oval This is the shape everyone else is trying towards. Congratulations
Round To make a round face appear oval apply lines that go up the face. This draws the eye more up and down The high arched eyebrow accomplishes this The best eyebrow should peak toward the end of the brow. The tail should be short
Square Strong angled eyebrows to balance the strong jaw line Peak of the brow is most effective when directly above the square of the jaw
Diamond A cross between a heart and a dramatic oval Widest at the cheekbones and narrow equally at the forehead and jaw line
Oblong/Long Long and slender About the same width at the forehead and just below the cheekbones May have a very narrow chin or a very high forehead
Inverted Triangle/Heart Face is wide at the temples and hairline Narrowing to a small delicate chin
