How to choose earrings

By face shape

Use earrings to proportionally balance your face shape!

The most important thing is to choose the right type of earrings, matching the width and length to the shape of your face with a matching clasp. An elongated face type will not be stretched further and a round one is not desirable to widen. Below we present the most common face types.

Suitable earrings: distinctiveearrings with or without a stone, dangle earrings, short dangle earrings, circle earrings. All preferably geometric and sharply shaped. In the case of long earrings, the most prominent part should be at chin level and visually widen this part.
