IDENTIFYING YOUR FACE SHAPE

There is a bit of a science to this so if you feel like working it out with me here it goes, if not just enter the competition above and I will analyse your face shape for you.

 

Step 1  Identify if Your Face is:

1. Definitely longer than it is wider Possible face shape is Oblong/Rectangle
2. Almost as long as it is wide  Possible face shapes are Round and Square
3. Only slightly longer than it is wide  Possible face shapes are Oval, Diamond, Inverted Triangle/Heart and Triangle/Pear

 

Step 2  Identify if Your Jaw is:
4. Gently Rounded   Possible face shapes are Oval and Oblong, Round, Heart/Inverted Triangle
5. Broad  Possible face shapes are Round, Square, Triangle and Rectangle
6. Pointed  Possible face shapes are Diamond, Heart/Inverted Triangle

 

Step 3 Your Face Shape is:

1 + 4    Your Face Shape is OBLONG

1 + 5    Your Face Shape is RECTANGLE

1 + 6    If you have chosen this one please re-assess if you should have chosen 2 in Step 1 or if you are certain on Step 1 you most likely should have chosen 1 in Step 2 which makes your face shape Oblong

2 + 4    Your Face Shape is ROUND

2 + 5    Your Face Shape is either ROUND or SQUARE

2 + 6    If you have chosen this one please re-assess if you should have chosen 3 in Step 1 or if you are certain on Step 1 you most likely should have chosen 1 in Step 2 which makes your face shape Round.

3 + 4    Your Face Shape is OVAL or HEART/Inverted Triangle

3 + 5    Your Face Shape is TRIANGLE/PEAR

3 + 6    Your Face Shape is DIAMOND or HEART/Inverted Triangle
