Beauty tips for every era

[Lady Jessica]

I never thought about also picking the right way of applying the lipstick in order to harmonize your face shape! Makes sense. Although, I really thought the round face example looked really cute with all the wrong things, especially the bow and the cute pouty lipstick.

Me too! I thought I was strange for finding her cute with all the wrong things...

I don't know what face shape I have out of those.

I have no clue what that means...- bummer!

lol lol lol I have an ideal face shape! I'm an oval!

For the ladies who asked how to figure out their own--my hair stylist was actually the one who told me what shape my face was. We were talking about different cuts and she told me that I was lucky to have an oval face, that most cuts work well with it. That's how I found out.

However, I've also heard of standing in front of a mirror with a bar of soap, and using the soap to trace the shape of your face in the mirror. When you finish, you step back and you can see what shape you have.
