Cheekbones & Midface

The midface sets much of the overall impression of a face. Light, grooming, and makeup all affect how it reads.

What we look at

  • Cheekbone visibility
  • Midface balance
  • Under-eye support
  • How light falls across the cheek

Worth trying

  • Soft, side-on lighting in photos
  • Contour or blush placement, if you wear makeup
  • Hair framing around the cheek
  • Skin care that keeps a healthy glow

Good to know

How much your cheekbones show varies with age, genetics, and light, and none of those are something to fix.
