The oval shape of the face is considered ideal due to its very well-balanced proportions.
This face shape is a bit rounded but with fine features. The cheekbones are well marked. Thanks to its beautiful proportions, oval faces can afford all kinds of styles of glasses. From classic shapes to the most original shapes, you are spoiled for choice.
The particularity of square faces lies in their wide forehead and their particularly marked jawline. Length and width are approximately of equal proportion.

A round face shape has curved lines with the width and length in the same proportions and no angle. The cheekbones and chin are rounded.

Triangle-shaped faces are easily identifiable but quite rare. It is the opposite of the inverted triangle faces that we will see just next. The forehead is rather narrow while the lower part of the face is rounded and widened with a chin that stands out well, as well as the cheekbones and the jaws that stand out.

This shape reverses to the upward triangle. The forehead is wide and the bottom of the face thin. The cheekbones are not very marked.
Objective:give width to the bottom of the face
A heart-shaped face has a forehead that is wider than the lower part of the face, which gradually gets thinner.
An oblong face is a shape you recognize because the face is longer than it is wide. It is sometimes difficult to identify it because it can be confused with other shapes such as rectangular or oval faces. Note that oblong facial features are thinner than other face shapes. The forehead is high.
