Face Shapes & Eyebrows

Determine Your Face Shape

Eyebrow shape can change

How your face shape looks

Find Your Face Shape

Start by pulling your hair back from your face, and with no makeup on, look closely in the mirror or make a sketch by eyebrow pencil around ur face after pulling the hair back.
The features for each shape to look for are:

There Are Six Basic Face Shapes


Long Face Shape
· forehead, cheekbones and jawline are all about the same width
· can tend to have a prominent chin
· has an elongated appearance







Heart Face Shape
· similar to oval but the chin tapers to a point.









Diamond Face Shape
· not as common as the other face shapes
· typically the face is highly angular
· the forehead is somewhat short
· the face is widest at the temples





Square Face Shape
· forehead, cheekbones and jawline all about the same width
· squared jawline is the most obvious feature






Round Face Shape
· face is almost as wide as it is long
· face is widest at the cheeks




Oval Face Shape
· forehead is wider than the chin
· prominent cheekbones
· face gracefully tapers to a narrow oval chin






Still not sure? - A simple test


· Measure the length of your face with a ruler. (In this case the total length of the face is 8).
· Divide the total length by 3. (In this case 8 divided by 3 is 2.67 or 2 2/3).
· Measure the length from the bottom of your nose to the bottom of your chin. (in this case 2 1/3),
· If the last number (the 2 1/3 number) is larger than the first number (the 2 2/3) than chances are you have a long face.
· If the last number is less than the first number than chances are you have a round face. If the last number is equal to the first number than chances are you have an oval face
