THE FACE SHAPE GUIDE
The heart face shape.
A broader upper face, a narrower chin. Here’s how to recognize it — and a few ideas to make it your own.
Explore your proportionsWHAT TO LOOK FOR
Three helpful clues.
- The forehead is wider than the lower jaw.
- The face tapers toward the chin.
- The chin may look pointed or softly narrow.
These are descriptive patterns, not strict rules. Your face can share features with another shape.
ILLUSTRATION ONLY
Proportions, in perspective.
Our outline is an illustration, not a measured face. Compare your features in a mirror or use the private photo tool.
HAIRSTYLES
Work with your texture and taste.
Try a side-swept fringe or volume around the lower face. Chin-length movement can balance a wider forehead.
Your hair density, natural texture and time for styling matter as much as the outline of your face. Bring an example you like to your stylist.
GLASSES & EYEWEAR
A good fit comes first.
Try light frames, rounded shapes or styles with a little width at the bottom. Avoid choosing oversized frames just to follow a rule.
Look straight ahead when trying frames. They should sit evenly, stay comfortable at the nose and temples, and suit your vision needs.
