How to tell if your face is oval

- ✓Jawline is rounded and softly tapered — no sharp corners
- ✓Cheekbones are the widest point of the face
Makeup for an oval face
Blush: Almost any placement works — swept on the apples toward the temples is classic.
Contour: You need very little; a whisper under the cheekbones adds definition.
Brows: Softly angled brows echo your natural balance.
Where to focus: Balanced proportions mean you can carry bold eyes or bold lips — pick one focal point.
