Face shape · The 7 shapes

Round face shape

Almost as wide as it is long, with full cheekbones and a soft jaw.

A face of curved lines and a bright look. Vertical lines and angles give it structure.

Frames: Rectangular or square frames, slightly wider than the face; cat-eye frames lift.
Hair: Volume on top, a side parting and lengths below the chin elongate the face.
Near the face: Long, vertical earrings; V necklines and long necklaces.

Frames you can explore

Shadow: Shadow along the sides of the face, from the temples to the jaw: it lengthens and slims the face.

Light: Light in the centre of the forehead, under the eyes, on the bridge of the nose and on the chin.

Always blend: contouring is light and shadow, never lines. Choose a matte shade one or two tones deeper than your skin.

A first, indicative look: a CARO consultation confirms it in person, with real clothes and frames.
