Beauty products exist to help correct nature’s imperfections. They enhance our God-given features when used correctly. To make the most of your make-up/beauty products, you need to know your face shape, its proportions and features. To determine your face shape and proportions, sweep your hair back from your face and look straight into the mirror. You can take a lip or eye pencil and draw around your reflection on a mirror to help determine your face shape.

An Inverted Triangle/ Heart Shaped Face

An inverted triangle face or a heart-shaped face is longer than it is wide, has a narrow jaw line and a pointy chin. To enhance the inverted triangle face, beauty products should be used to shade the outer edges of the cheekbones and highlight the jaw line. To achieve this, foundation or bronzer should be used to shade the outer edges of the cheekbones and chin and use an iridescent highlighter along the jaw line.

Apply blush to the apples of the cheek, go for bright coloured lipsticks and lipgloss to draw attention to the lower half of your face. Try not to extend your eye shadow beyond the outer edge of the eyes so you don’t draw attention to this part of your face.

Go for hairstyles that draw attention to the jaw line and minimize the width of the face. Hair styles that finish at the jaw line, like a short bob will enhance the inverted triangle face.
