How to choose the perfect earrings to complement your features

Are you struggling to find the right pair of earrings for your face shape? Then this guide is for you!

When trying to determine your face shape, it is all about the outline of your face so focus on lines, angles and curves.

 

Choose your face shape here and then check what shape earrings are best for you.

A heart shaped face has a narrow jaw and is wider at the forehead and /or the cheek bones. It is wide at the temples and hairline with a small delicate chin.

 

How to wear jewellery to complement your skin tone

First things first. We need to figure out if your skin tone is warm or cool.

The best way to determine this is to take a white piece of paper and hold it under a light next to the underside of your wrist. Now you need to decide if your veins are more on the blue or the green side. If your veins are more on the blue side you have a cool skin tone. If your veins are more on the green side, you have a warm skin tone.

You can also establish whether your skin tone is cool or warm by following this general rule of thumb. If you look better in silver and blue, you probably have a cool skin tone. If you look better in gold and orange, you are probably warm toned.

Now let's figure out whether you are warm or cool depending on your natural hair colour, eye colour and the undertones in your skin.
