#1. Oval face

Recognition: If your forehead tends to be broader than your chin area, you have an oval face. Such women have a higher temple and the face gracefully tapers down to a narrow chin. Prominent cheekbones are another plus point for such women. These women need to make sure that their eyebrows are thick enough to balance their bold features. With a higher temple, you need heavy brows.

#5. Square face

Recognition: Women under this category have a symmetrical face where the width of the forehead, jawline and the cheekbones are the same. As the name suggests, these women have a well-defined square jaw which is their most prominent feature. Since the lower part of their face is angular, they need sharp eyebrows to create balance on their face.

Preferred Shape: Thin and medium-arched eyebrows

Avoid: Round and thick eyebrows

Actresses: Kareena Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Natalie Portman

#6. Oblong face

Recognition: If you have a long face with a curved chin, you have an oblong face. The face isn’t broad, but the width of the forehead, cheekbones and jawline are the same. Since this face type lacks the much-needed roundness, it would be better to keep the eyebrows flat or with a downward curve.

Preferred Shape: A downward curve or flat eyebrows

Avoid: Arched eyebrows
