To determine your face shape, follow these steps:
- Gather your tools: You'll need a flexible measuring tape, a mirror, and a pen and paper to jot down your measurements.
- Tie your hair back: Secure all your hair away from your face to ensure accurate measurements.
- Measure your face:
- Face Length: Measure from the center of your hairline to the tip of your chin.
- Forehead Width: Measure across your forehead, from the widest points on either side.
- Cheekbone Width: Measure across the widest part of your cheekbones.
- Jawline Width: Measure across the widest part of your jawline.
- Compare your measurements: Based on the measurements, compare your face length and width to identify your face shape. You may have an oval face shape if your face is longer than it is wide. You may have a round or heart face shape if your face is wider than it is long.
- Visualize your face shape: Look at yourself in the mirror and visualize the contours of your face. Are your cheekbones prominent? Is your jawline square or rounded? These visual cues can help you confirm your face shape.
If you're still unsure about your face shape, you can try using online tools or apps that analyze your face and identify your shape. You can also consult a professional makeup artist or hairstylist for guidance.
