Is there a perfect face shape? Why every face shape and skin colour is beautiful
Short answerNo face shape is better than another, and no skin colour is better than another. Face shape is only a tool for choosing haircuts, glasses and makeup that suit you. Every shape has its own strengths: round faces look youthful, square faces look strong, heart faces have striking cheekbones and oval faces suit many styles.

What face shape is for
Stylists use face shape to decide where to add volume, length or softness. It is a styling guide, not a measure of beauty.
The strength of every shape
- Oval: balanced proportions that suit almost any cut.
- Round: soft, youthful curves.
- Square: a strong, defined jawline.
- Oblong: elegant length and high cheekbones.
- Heart: wide, striking cheekbones and a delicate chin.
- Diamond: sculpted cheekbones that catch the light.
- Triangle: a strong jaw that suits volume on top.
Skin colour is not a problem to fix
Fair, wheatish, dusky and deep skin are all healthy and beautiful. Care is about clear, comfortable skin, not lighter skin. Choose colours by undertone so your skin glows.
