When buying earrings online, one of the most important factors you need to consider is the shape of your face. There are six types of faces. These are long, round, oval, heart, square, and diamond. In order to determine which face type you are, you will need to pull your hair back, and look into the mirror. Let us look the type of earrings that are suitable for each of these faces.
Oval face
If you have an oval face, you should wear the drop, chandelier, and long earrings that are usually thinner at the top but widen as they become longer. This is a shape that can help fill out the face’s lower area, and provide you with that elegant look.
Long-shaped face
The right earrings for this kind of face are the shop drops and studs. These can provide you with an illusion that you have a wider face and highlights the face. Make sure that you choose colors that match your eyes.
Round
The goal here should be to make your face longer by wearing the long, drop, chandelier, or dangle earrings. Choose earrings that start with a thin line before elongating, and consist of a bigger interesting area at the bottom. Avoid disc earrings if you have this kind of face as this only serves to accentuate the roundness of the face. Instead, opt for the geometric designs.
Square face
Studs and mid-length drops as well as the long slim elegant shapes are the most suitable for this kind of shape. If the earrings aren’t too solid, these are better choices. For instance, you can choose earrings that have a lot of small stones instead of those with a large stone or shape.
Heart-shaped face
The long and dangle chandeliers and drops that end at or even above your chin are the most suitable for this kind of shape. The goal of this shape of earrings is focus on as they widen the area of the mouth.
Diamond shaped face
Choose the long & elegant drops that should be falling gently. These could be the multi stone drop earrings. With this shape of earrings, you can easily find the area that is around the lower jaw and is able to draw attention to your mouth.
Use these guidelines to choose earrings that are most suited to your face. If you are finding it difficult to make a choice, you can take a photo of the face with the hair up. Look at the photo before deciding.
