How to enhance features of different face shapes

Round faces: Round faces have strong bone structure, so you need to apply light tones of colour around the hairline, from ear to ear to elongates the face. Darker tones are rich, and you should use it near the the ears and the lower ends of the hair. This gives a pointed appearance to the face.

Triangular or heart-shaped faces: To create a more oval shape for an angular face use lighter highlights around the jaw line and ears. This softens the bottom of the face. The mixing of lighter tones with darker tones at the roots will give a more oval look.

Square faces: Square-shaped faces have wide facial features. These need to be softened and so lines are added to give more depth. Multi-tonal layers of light and dark colours should be applied to the corners of the face and around the jaw line and temples to contour the face.

Diamond or oblong or rectangular face: Diamond face shape needs to create the illusion of a slimmer, longer face. Apply deeper tones to the roots along the parting, merging into delicate lighter pieces from above the ears to the ends of the hair. Also, follow these makeup tips to look picture perfect.
