Face shape detector: find your shape and what suits it

1.How face shape detection works

A face shape detector compares the width of your forehead, cheekbones and jaw with the length of your face, and how angular or rounded the jawline is. The closest match is named as one of six common shapes: oval, round, square, heart, diamond or oblong.

1. 1Take a front-facing selfie in even light, hair off the face
2. 2The forehead, cheekbones, jaw and face length are compared
3. 3The jawline and chin are read as angular or rounded
4. 4The closest of the six shapes is named, with a confidence score

2.The six face shapes

Each face shape suits different hairstyles, frames and beard styles. Our guides cover all six shapes with the hair, glasses and beard advice for each, so once you know your shape you can go straight to what suits it.

Generic advice is a starting point. A scan reads your face shape and skin on your own face, shows the visual evidence and a confidence score, and builds a morning and night routine around it. The first full analysis is free.

This is general cosmetic guidance, not medical advice. See a dermatologist for skin that is painful, spreading, scarring or not improving after 8-12 weeks.
