Round Face

A round face is the type of face, which is equally wide long and has the greatest width at the cheek. To slenderize such a face you should apply blush on the sides of your cheekbones and blend up. To add an illusion of length you should also apply a bit of blush to your chin and blend well.

Square Face

A square face has a square forehead of about the same width as the cheekbones and jaw line. For such a face beginning at the center of the eyes you should apply the blush on your cheekbones. Then blend it toward your temples and apply a dab to your forehead and chin. This will help you soften the square angle of your face.

Rectangular Face

A rectangular face has an elongated square shape. The forehead of such a face cut has about the same width as its cheekbones and jaw line. For such a face you should apply blush on your cheekbones below the outer corners of the eyes and blend well. Be sure that the blush does not extend lower than the tip of your nose.

Oval Face

An oval face is believed to be the ideal face cut. Such a face has forehead wider than the chin. The cheekbones of this face are dominant with the face tapering from the cheeks to a narrow oval chin. You should use your fingertips in order to locate the most prominent part of your cheekbone. And then apply the blush and blend towards your temples. It will highlight your cheekbones.

Triangular Face

A triangular face has a wide forehead and high cheekbones. Such a face tapers to a narrow chin. You should apply blush on the sides of your cheekbones. Blend up from your cheekbones to your temple and then extend the blush over your brow a bit toward the center of your forehead. This will help you balance the width of your forehead with the rest of your face.
