BEAUTY TIPS: HOW TO ACHIEVE BEST HAIRSTYLE FOR SQUARE SHAPED FACE & MAKE-UP LOOK

If you have a square-shaped face, you have a strong, angular jawline, and your face measures about the same from top to bottom as from side to side

Consider yourself lucky if you have a square face. Some of the most famous faces in the past and today have a strong, angular jawline. I've read that women with square faces also age very well and take the best photographs. Lucky you!

Charactieristics of a Square Face   

Forehead, cheekbones and jawline all about the same width 

Squared jawline is the most obvious feature

Hairstyle ideas for a square face

A broad forehead and a strong square jawline dominate your face. Slim those broad cheekbones with chin-length layers and, if you want a fringe, opt for a long wispy one. A graduated or classic bob makes an ideal shorter style because it hugs the face. Curls falling onto the cheeks will slim down the widest points of the face and help rebalance it.

Warning

If you want to wear your hair short, do so with a soft, layered bob. Don't get a blunt cut; it will accentuate your boxy, square jaw.

Avoid straight, blunt and thick bangs. Instead, ask your stylist for sideswept bangs that are just below brow length.

 

MAKE-UP LOOK

Face

Use a shader that is one tone darker than your foundation under your cheekbones, out to your hair line and down under the points of your jaw to create a flattering shape.

To narrow down the top of your face, blend some shader just above your temples to the outer corner of your forehead.

Use shaping and shading tricks to lift the outer edges of your face so that your jaw line appears lifted.

Cheekbones

Apply a light colored blusher on your cheekbones and chin to give them the illusion of lift.

Eyes

Use a dark colored eye shadow under your eye, on your lid and from the inner point of your eyebrow to the outer edge.

Lips

Use a bright lipstick on your lips and apply it to your top lip with a slightly pointed shape to help make your chin appear more pointed.
