Style with Geometry
Simple measurements, impactful styling
Table of Contents
Measure and Observe
Accurate measurements are the foundation of every styling decision. Use a flexible tape or measurement app to capture widths and lengths.
Combine numbers with visual cues—no single metric defines your shape on its own.
- Compare face length with cheekbone width to gauge overall proportion.
- Note whether the forehead, cheekbones, or jaw are widest.
- Check the chin contour: softly rounded, pointed, or squared.
- Observe how sharply the jawline transitions into the neck.
Styling Strategies by Shape
Balance shapes by directing volume, lines, and colour to different parts of the face.
Let AI-generated recommendations guide experiments, then fine-tune based on personal preference.
- Oval: highlight symmetry with softly layered cuts and balanced brows.
- Round: add vertical lines through crown volume and angled contour placement.
- Square: soften edges with waves, diffused blush, and rounded eyewear.
- Heart: widen the lower face using chin-length layers and neutral lip shades.
Finishing Touches & Accessories
Accessories complete the look by reinforcing or rebalancing proportions. Keep a small toolkit of frames, earrings, and necklines that suit your goals.
Pro Tips
- Pick eyewear that contrasts with face width—slim frames for wider faces, elongated cat-eyes for narrow shapes.
- Match earring length to the amount of width you want to create or soften.
- Use necklines to adjust balance: V-necks elongate, boat necks broaden.
- Rotate textures and colours to draw attention to features you love.
