Face Shapes...:::

You can’t talk about beauty without thinking about the shape of the face. This affects our makeup, hair, and even clothing styles.

Although each person has a unique face, there are generally seven face shapes. When you have your makeup, hairstyle, clothing and even accessories complimenting your face-shape, your appearance will be balanced and you will definitely look like the style was made for you and not something you copied off someone else. Adonmu is here to present you with several tips to enhance the way you look in relation to the shape of your face.

The face shapes are: Oval, Square, Round, Triangle/Pear, Heart/Inverted Triangle, Oblong and Diamond. 
There really is no such thing as “The Perfect Face”, knowing your Face Shape, helps get you that “Custom Made” look for Hairstyles, Makeup and Dressing. You need to remember that not all styles fit any face shape, thus knowing what fits your face shape is the key to having that balanced suited look.
Thus we’ll present you with tips for matching the right hairstyle, makeup and accessories that suit the different Face Shapes…:::


OVAL
This face shape is considered as the “ideal” face shape since it is well balanced and has no sharp nor angular features, and it is not overly rounded or full. However, we all need to remember that each one of use is beautiful thus what’s with the “Ideal face shape” thing?
This face shape is widest at the cheekbones (the face is however not very wide), the face becomes narrower towards the jawline and the forehead. Also, the width of the jawline and that of the forehead is almost the same
SQUARE
The square face shape and the round face shape are the most common face-shapes. The square face has the forehead, cheeks and jawline equal, it does not narrow towards the forehead, nor towards the jawline. The face may also look angular, that means that the jawline may appear sharply-angled at the corners. The forehead may also be squared off.



ROUND

Round face shapes are exactly as they sound: ROUND. The widest point is across the cheekbones, narrowing a little at the forehead and the jawline. There are no angular features on this face shape at all and it is wider than the typical oval or oblong face, and it usually has a rounded forehead and chin, with wide full cheeks.

TRIANGLE or PEAR
The triangle or pear shaped face has a narrow forehead, then the cheekbones and jawline are wide. That means the forehead, cheeks and eye area is narrower than the jaw area. The jawline may also be angular or rounded. Sometimes this face shape is grouped with the heart/inverted triangle face shape.

HEART or INVERTED TRIANGLE
The heart shaped face is sometimes called the inverted triangle, particularly if the hairline doesn't come to a point on the forehead. This face shape is the opposite of the triangle or pear; it has a wide forehead and cheekbone, and then narrows toward the jawline and chin. The jaw is the most narrow area of the face. This face may be angular or more rounded.

OBLONG
The oblong face shape is rectangular, and has similar qualities as the oval face shape except that it's longer and narrower. It sometimes tends to be angular. Oblong faces are pretty straight, with a high forehead and the cheekbones are not any or much wider than the forehead and jawline.

DIAMOND
Diamond face shapes are not so common. They are characterized by a narrow forehead and jawline, with the cheekbones being the widest point of the face. The cheekbones are often high and defined on this face shape.

Achieving Your Goals - Getting it Done

5 minutes read The new year usually makes you want to set a target or resolution - something you want to do or a change you want to make. It usually starts off great but sometimes we drop it before the year is through, without accomplishing the goal.  Then, the following year you still find yourself wanting to do, create, have, give or experience that same thing, or even something bigger.

Understanding Your Hair

Image
Great hair is indeed possible, once you understand your hair. We all crave to have healthy, longer, shinier hair, so read on and be on your way to understanding what your hair needs and could do without. Basically, we have 2 types on hair on our body: Vellus hair which is found all over our body, on the upper lip and forehead. It is very fine and short hair which is usually not colored (un-pigmented, usually translucent) and doesn't grow longer than 2cm. This hair has just 2 layers: the cortex and cuticle. Terminal hair which is the longer, coarser, pigmented hair that grows on our scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, armpits and groin. This hair has 3 layers : the medulla in the middle filled with air and proteins, the cortex containing melanin, and the cuticle on the outside. When hair emerges from our scalp it has about 6 - 10 layers of cuticle. The cells of the cuticle overlap  at about a 5 degree angle (looking like the tiles on a roof), pointing down towards the tips of the...
