1. Jewellery to Suit Your Face Shape and Skin Tone
A lot of people wear jewellery as an extension of their personality, a way to tell the world who they
are without ever speaking. For this reason, when it comes to picking out your jewellery it is a lot
about your personal tastes and likes. But are there different styles, shapes or colours you should be
looking at that will enhance your natural features? The following are some tips on what jewellery
will work best with your facial features depending on your face shape and the colours that will work
best with your skin tone.
Square Shaped Face
A square shaped face doesn’t narrow much from the cheekbone to forehead or
from the cheekbone to jawline and can tend to look angular. Round edge
earrings and hoops suit this shape by helping to soften the angles of the
jawline, like these Riviera Madison Earrings. Try to stay clear of square or sharp
angles which won’t flatter. Try to wear necklaces that are long and round and
will add softness, for example a string of pearls.
Round Shaped Face
This face shape looks exactly as it sounds with the widest point being at the
cheekbones and narrowing some at the forehead and at the jawline. It’s not
angular at all and is generally wider than an oval shape. For a round face long
earrings are perfect as they will add definition and enhance your features as well
as elongating your face, these Classique Multi-strand Earrings are perfect for this.
Long necklaces will draw the eye downwards, elongating the neck. Why not try
long simple and elegant necklaces for a slimming and sophisticated look.
Heart Shaped Face
Sometimes called inverted triangle shaped. The widest part is at the forehead
and the face narrows towards the jawline, with the jawline being the
narrowest area. Teardrop and chandelier earrings, which are wider at the
bottom, add balance to the narrowest point of the face and will showcase your
delicate chin and jawline. Try these Byzantium Fan Earrings to add the balance
to your face. Necklaces which are short and round or chokers will soften the
shape around your chin.

2. Long Shaped Face
This shape can be rectangular in look, similar to the square shape but longer. Generally the face has
a straight line down with the cheekbones being not any or much wider than the jawline and
forehead. Short and round earrings work best for this shape, like these ClassiqueRosesilver Earrings.
You can wear big and bold statement earrings which will add definition to the face. Pick earrings that
are wider rather than long to draw attention to your cheekbones. For the neck, chokers draw the
eye up and widthways giving the appearance of a shorter face. Short wide shapes compliment a
delicate chin and forehead.
Oval Shaped Face
An oval shaped face is widest at the cheekbones and narrows a small bit at the jawline and forehead.
The width of the forehead and the jawline (from corner to corner) are nearly equal. As an oval
shaped face is well balanced, almost all types of exclusive jewellery will suit whether it’s long or
short earrings or any shape of necklace. So have fun and pick something that reflects your
personality.
Warm Skin Tones
People with a warm skin tone will see more greenish coloured veins when they look at their wrist.
They usually have yellow or fairer complexion. Yellow gold, copper and bronze all compliment
someone with a warm skin tone. The best colours and gemstones are the earth colours; amber,
golden topaz, rubies, emeralds, jade, creamy coloured, instead of brilliant white, pearls and any of
the following colours, yellow, champagne, green or orange.
Cool Skin Tones
People with cool skin tones have blue coloured veins and have a pink or ruddy complexion. Sterling
Silver jewellery compliments a cool skin tone as does, white gold, platinum or palladium. The
coloured gemstones to go for are; pink sapphires, amethysts, sapphires, onyx, brilliant white pearls
and anything of the following colours, pink, blue, purple, red, violet, black, grey and white.
