Heart Face Shape: Balance and Soften
Heart Face Shape: Balance and Soften
A heart-shaped face typically has a wider forehead and prominent cheekbones that gracefully narrow down to a delicate, pointed chin. The aim when choosing earrings for a face shape like a heart is to balance the wider upper half, so look for styles that add volume or width around the jawline.
Best Earring Styles for Heart Faces:
- Teardrop Earrings: These are fantastic, as they are narrow at the top and gracefully widen at the bottom, mirroring and balancing the face shape.
- Huggie Earrings with Drop Accents: Look for huggie earrings with a drop accent to draw attention downward toward the jawline or chin, balancing out the wider upper face.
- Triangular Designs: Similar to teardrops, these can help to visually widen the lower part of the face.
If you have a heart-shaped face, it's best to avoid wide studs or very top-heavy designs that might further emphasize the broader forehead.
