75:30 - 51:30: Conclusion The chapter on face shapes concludes by summarizing the distinctive characteristics of rounded and angular face types. Rounded face shapes, such as round, oval, or pear-shaped, tend to have a smoother and more rounded appearance without prominent angles.

04:00 - 04:30 for those who have no idea what it means it simply represents the visual presence of our facial features the sense of weight refers to the overall impression of size thickness and the degree of forward projection and more so let's take a quick quiz to identify your visual weight we will begin with the face shape the element that influences the visual weight of our face shape the most is the overall shape and the degree of bonus rounded face shape has stronger sense of curviness
04:30 - 05:00 to its overall structure Temple region cheekbones their jawline tend to appear more rounded and have a smoother outline round oval or pear-shaped faces are commonly presented with such characteristics so if you find your face shape belongs to this category mark yourself with one point for angular face shapes like diamond Square rectangle or sometimes can be pear-shaped face they have stronger bony appearance to their facial structure these face shapes usually appear to be sharper and present with an angular outline the bones look more chiseled and protruded if you
05:00 - 05:30 have such face shapes mentioned here mark yourself with a negative one on the other hand if you find your face shape presenting with a mixture of both rounded and angular characteristics no worries it just means that you just got the best of both worlds just mark yourself with a zero [Music] next the ratio of your lower third you can look into the mirror and observe the ratio
05:30 - 06:00 of your lower third to your entire face the lower third ranges from the bottom of the nose to the bottom of the chin it is suggested that these three segments of our face the upper middle and lower third should be equidistant if your lower third ratio is shorter compared to the other segments score yourself with one mark whereas if your lower third is longer then you shall put a negative one point for this on the other hand you should Mark yourself with zero if you have equal length for your lower third ratio [Music]
06:00 - 06:30 the size of our eyes matters too if you have narrow eye shape or less surface area is taken up by the eyes to the face score yourself with one point wider eye shape or your eyes take up a higher surface area of your face cross negative one if you feel that your eye size is just moderate not too wide or too narrow give yourself a zero for this [Music]
06:30 - 07:00 view your nose from the side if your nose has a lower nose Bridge these traits contribute to a lower visual presence nose give yourself one point if these features align with your nose a nose with a higher visual weight is characterized by a more defined Contour with a forward projecting appearance which offers higher dimensionality and prominence to its overall appearance hence you shall score yourself with a negative one point
07:00 - 07:30 if you notice such characteristics present in your nose if you think that your nose bridge is in between both ends not too high or too low mark yourself as zero now look at your nose from the front observe the width of your nose alarm and the golden ratio of facial Aesthetics it was suggested that the width of your nose alert should equals to the distance between your eyes therefore a wider nose here means that your nose alarm is wider than your
07:30 - 08:00 eye distance a smaller Nosler has a smaller width than your eye distance cross one point for smaller nozzle R and cross negative one for wider nozzle R if the width of the nose alar is equal to the eye distance score yourself with zero lastly the size of your mouth if the width of your mouth is wider than the distance between the inner rim of your pupils it means that your mouth has higher ratio to your face hence it has higher visual weight if the width of the mouth is smaller than the
08:00 - 08:30 pupil's distance less ratio is taken up by the mouth hence it has lower visual weight instead score one for smaller mouth ratio and score negative one for wider mouth ratio the weights of your mouth is equidistant as the pupil distance note a zero for that alright please jot down all your answers and sum them up to get your total score for your visual weight
08:30 - 09:00 once you've got your score keep that aside and we are ready to move to the next parameter the shape of your facial features in general there are two main types of facial features the rounded and angular shape features just like the name suggests rounded facial structure appears to be more flashy it often gives us the impression that the facial bones are surrounded with plump and firm looking Flesh on our face so if you have such features add negative one point for yourself
09:00 - 09:30 conversely angular facial structures appear to be more bony and have deeper Contour when viewing from the front prominent facial bone structure appear with more depth Shadows are clearly visible around the area around eye sockets cheekbones and the roots of the nose give yourself one point if you have these features as usual if you spot yourself with a good mix of both rounded and angular features jot down a zero for this [Music]
09:30 - 10:00 next the eyes when we are judging if the shape of our eyes are more rounded or angular the shape of the inner Corner isn't the only aspect that we are taking into account the overall shape of the eyes is what we should consider whether you have rounded doe eyes or narrow elongated sirenize rounded shaped eyes has wider opening at the inner corner it has higher curvature at the lids and the width is almost similar to the length of the entire eye score yourself a negative one if you have rounded shaped eyes whereas angular shaped eyes has smaller opening at the inner
10:00 - 10:30 corner it has flatter curvature to the lids and the length is longer than the width of the eye mark yourself with one point if you notice your eyes align with the angular characteristics if your eyes has a mixture of both characteristics the most likely scenario is that your eyes are somewhere in the middle so it is best to score yourself with a zero for this [Music] at one point if you have monolid or hooded eyes or add negative one point if you have double eyelids
10:30 - 11:00 for the nose the shape of the nose tip nosalar and nose bridge should be observed lower nose Bridge broader alar base and less to find contour to the overall nose shape commonly appear to be more rounded angular shaped nose present the opposite characteristics it has a higher nose Bridge narrower alarm base and Define contour to the overall nose shape
11:00 - 11:30 the nose appears to be more bony generally moderate nose shape is everything in between like the one closest to your nose shape take negative one point for rounded nose and add one point for angular nose for moderate just Mark a zero for yourself next the Brows if your brows are shaped with rounded curve or has a soft Arch that means that your brows are shaped more curved so Mark negative one point for that
11:30 - 12:00 on the other hand if your brows have a higher and sharper Arch it means that your brows are more angular so at one point if your brows have the following characteristics however if you have straight brows you will need to score yourself as zero we also have to take note that eyebrow shape can be altered with different makeup styles therefore just pick according to the brow shape that you always go for finally the last question to go to identify if your lips are more rounded or angular the
12:00 - 12:30 lip thickness and the shape of the mouth Corners are the aspects that we should look into thicker powder your lips with less defined Cupid's bow appear to be more rounded while thinner lips with more defined Cupid's bow appear to be more angular instead however some of us do have a mix of characteristics from both angular and rounded lips too you have to mark negative one if you have rounded lips or mark one point if you have angular lips
