Face Shapes and Jewelry
How to Choose Jewelry for Your Face Shape?
Choosing the right jewelry for your face shape will not only make your appearance more harmonious, but also highlight your natural beauty. Here are some tips on how to choose the pieces that suit you best.
Round face shape
Characteristics: A round face shape has an even width and height, with soft and rounded features. The face is wider around the cheekbones and there is no sharp jawline.
Earrings: Elongated, drop or square earrings visually elongate the face, counterbalancing a round shape.
Necklaces: Longer, V-shaped necklaces elongate the face and neck, helping to balance out round shapes.
Oval face shape
Characteristics: The oval face shape has balanced, soft, curved facial features and is often considered the "ideal" face shape because almost all jewelry looks good on it.
Earrings: Almost any earrings suit an oval face shape, especially longer, dangle earrings that accentuate the natural lines of the face.
Necklaces: V-shaped or shorter, curved necklaces harmonize with the oval shape, highlighting the neck and cleavage.
Square face shape
Characteristics: A square face shape has angular features and a sharp jaw. The width and height of the face are similar, with the forehead, cheekbones, and jaw all having similar widths.
Earrings: Round, curved earrings, such as hoops, help soften angular facial features.
Necklaces: V-shaped necklaces or softly curved pendants help elongate the face and balance out angular lines.
Heart face shape
Characteristics: A heart-shaped face is wider at the forehead and gradually narrows towards the chin, which is often sharp or narrow.
Earrings: Earrings with a widening base, such as teardrop or triangle-shaped pieces, help balance the width of the forehead and the narrowness of the chin.
Necklaces: Shorter necklaces, such as chokers, soften the jawline and highlight the neck, balancing the proportions of the face.
Oblong face shape
Characteristics: The rectangle face shape is elongated, with a wide forehead, a square jaw, and often even proportions. The face is elongated and sometimes has sharp lines.
Earrings: Round, shorter earrings help soften the angular lines of your face. Oval or curved shapes also look good.
Necklaces: Thicker or shorter necklaces, like choker styles, optically shorten the face, thus balancing out elongated proportions.
Diamond face shape
Characteristics: The diamond face shape has prominent, wide cheekbones, a narrow forehead and jawline. The face is usually angular and has sharp lines.
Earrings: Shorter, wider earrings, such as drop-shaped or hoop earrings, work well because they soften sharp cheekbones.
Necklaces: V-shaped pendants or curved necklaces help to offset the angularity of facial features and harmonize the look.
