Makeup works as a miracle to get glowing skin, improve the gorgeousness of natural features, and increase overall confidence. To get a flawless appearance, it is essential to apply makeup based on your unique facial structure and shape. Learn the tips you need to work with the makeup that perfectly suits your face shape.
1. Oval shape
First apply the foundation and then bronzer. Take a bronzer between your thumb and first finger and then stretch them along with your nose length from top to bottom. It will provide a shadow effect on the sides of your nose.
The foundation on the top of the nose will offer it the look of a fair and heightened nose. While doing lips or eyes makeup, either go for bold lip color and simple eye makeup or nude lipstick and bold eyes. Shape your eyebrows according to your needs, avoiding over-plucking.
2. Round shape
The round face shape has curved lines with no sharp edges. Gently sculpt the hollows of your temples, jawline, and cheeks using a bronzer or a contour shade. Apply a highlighter to the browbones and cheekbones to add dimension.
3. Oblong shape
De-emphasize the height and improve the width of the bone structure to create a more balanced look. Apply blush on the apple of the cheeks and blend back and out for more width. Apply bronzer around the hairline at the forehead top and cheekbones.
Blend the bronzer under the chin, across the nose bridge, and back along the jawline. Highlight the cheekbones and blend them on the brow bone, cupid’s bow, and nose tip avoiding the chin and forehead.
4. Heart shape
Apply bronzer on your temples and the sides of your chin. Highlight your high cheekbones by applying a rosy blush. Use a bright color lipstick or keep glossy lips to bring eyes away from the jawline. Light eyeshadows like champagnes, nudes, and pinks will make your eyes pop.
Most people with heart-shaped faces have prominent cheekbones. So, highlight your jawline, the bridge of the nose, Cupid’s bow, a high point of the cheeks, on the chin, and under the brow bone. Apply bronzer and contour underneath your cheekbones and on the top of the forehead. Use 1-2 fingers to apply blush away from the nose and from the top of the apples of your cheeks towards your ear.
5. Square shape
Most people with square shape faces have a prominent jawline and strong features. It requires makeup to smooth out the angles and provides the appearance of an oval or round shape. Contour the jawline and forehead to reduce the prominence. Blend it along your temples, jawline, and hairline using a contour shade or a warm-toned bronzer. Try to use a peachy or pink blush.
6. Diamond shape
This type of face shape is identified by a narrower forehead, jawline, and wide cheekbones. So, there is a need to apply makeup in a way that reduces the width of the cheekbones and provides fullness to the chin and forehead. Apply a contour of a shade slightly darker than your skin tone on the cheekbones. Use a highlighter on the chin and the center of your forehead to add some dimension. Go for eyeshadow and mascara to better define your eyes.
