Accentutated cheekbones.
2. Long Face Shape: the long face is also called the oblong or rectangle face. The hairline, middle part as well as the lower part of the face is all more or less equal in width. The hairline may be horizontal rather than curved, stretching from temple to temple. The length of this face shape is greater than its width. To summarize this face shape: 1. High forehead, 2. High cheekbones, 3. Long chin and 4. Small face.
3. Square Face Shape: square face is very similar to long or rectangle face shape. This face shape is characterized by a squared jaw and hair line.

To summarize this face shape is: 1. wide forehead, cheeks and jaw line
4.Round Face Shape: a round jaw line and hairline characterize the round face shape. The length and width of this shape are almost equal around the face. The round face is not a sign of chubby or flabby cheeks. For some, slim women may have a round face as the facial shape has nothing to do with body weight. To summarize this face shape is: 1. round hairline, jaw line and cheeks(which cannot be seen), 2. sometimes a person with this face shape may have a double chin.

The chin is pointed rather than squared or rounded. The hairline may run almost straight, from temple to temple, and gives the face the overall look of a triangle turned upside down. The hairline has a widow's peak. To summarize this: 1. heart shaped hairline, 2. wides cheeks, 3.small face and 4. sharp chin.
6. Diamind Face Shape: A narrow chin and hairline gives this face shape a distinct diamond like apperance. The middle zone( cheekbones) is the widest part of the diamond shaped face structure. The forehead is less pronounced and gradually reduces in width to form a narrow and pointed chin. The lowest and uppermost parts are equal here. To summarize this shape is: 1. the ost prominent feature is the cheekbones, 2. the cheekbones are strong and well defined and 3. the forehead is thinner than the cheekbones but wider than the chin.
7. Pear Face Shape: also described as the trapezoid shape or triangle shape face, this kind of face is the widest at the lowermost point, the chin.
