FACE SHAPE GUIDE

◼️ Square Face Shape

A strong, angular jawline the same width as the forehead

How to tell if your face is square

  • Forehead, cheekbones, and jaw are all nearly the same width
  • Sharp, defined jaw corners (a gonial angle under ~155°)
  • Fairly flat, wide chin
  • Face length is modest relative to width

Makeup for a square face

Blush: Rounded blush placement on the apples softens angularity.

Contour: Soften the jaw corners with contour; highlight the center of the face.

Brows: Curved or softly arched brows balance a strong jaw.

Where to focus: Soft, blended edges everywhere — harsh lines compete with your natural structure.
