While most of us shop for earrings solely based on our preferences, we rarely take our face shape into consideration. As it turns out, though, it plays a major role in how harmoniously a pair of earrings balance and complement your face.

If you’re struggling to get around this correlation, we’ve created a handy guide to help you choose the right earrings based on the shape of your face.

Round Face: Opt for Sleek Malachite Earrings

If you have a round face, you should have a strong focus on lengthening and structuring it. Indulge in a pair of sleek malachite earrings to deepen the contours of your face and make it appear longer. The long, beaded earrings will add a touch of sleekness to your face and beautifully balance its natural softness and plumpness.

Dust some bronzer into the hollows—not the apples—of your cheeks to add more dimension and depth to your face. Subtle contouring will also go a long way in making your bone structure pop!

Oval Face: The World Is Your Oyster

If you have an oval face, there’s virtually no way you can go wrong. Oval faces are considered the most symmetrical and flattering faces. While you can wear any style, shape, and color of earrings, we suggest taking some inspiration from celebrities as well. Rihanna, Jessica Alba, Tyra Banks, and Bella Hadid have an oval face. Review their past looks and choose similar earrings to stand out.

Square Face: Opt for Coin Black Agate Earrings

If you have a square face like Olivia Wilde, Keira Knightley, or Margot Robbie, you’re already blessed with all the beautiful structure you could ever need! Instead of focusing on dimension, turn to softness.

Add a touch of softness to your face by wearing coin black agate earrings. The black finishing will complement your deep cheekbones and jawline while the round shape of the earrings will soften your face.

Heart-Shaped Face: Opt for Lapis Lazuli Twist Earrings

Have a heart-shaped face like Cheryl Cole and Halle Berry? Lapis lazuli twist earrings work wonders by making the jaw appear slightly wider and the forehead a tad smaller. In other words, they help symmetrize the heart shape.

The geometrical edges complement the cheekbones while the large, oval-esque shape slightly lengthens the face, which is exactly what you want. Feel free to experiment with different gems!
