There are 52 muscles in the human face, and an actress like Carey Mulligan has the right classically shaped face to use all of them without messing with her even proportions. Bet you can calculate her face shape with just a glance.
With equally-sized forehead, cheeks, chin and face height, Mulligan has an Oval face shape. Brave hairstyles are one thing Oval face shapes don't have to fear. Mulligan accents her even features with a sleek and chic pixie.
Don't be fooled by the bold makeup and brow choices Ashley Olsen makes to offset her sweet face shape.
There's just no hiding the cuteness of Olsen's Rounded Heart face shape! We remember a younger version of that shape being perfect for her childhood roles.
Since her name comes from the Latin angelicus (meaning "angelic"), the sweet and innocent face shape Angela Basset shows the world is fitting. What is it? (Tip: Don't be thrown off by her bangs, they disguise a taller forehead than one might think.)

The drama and glamour of this face shape is perfectly clear in Angelina Jolie. Jolie regally rocks which face shape as she goes about all the different aspects of her life?

Her broad forehead and cheeks taper to her iconic chin, putting Witherspoon's sweet features squarely in the Heart category.
Beyonce, one of the richest women under 35 in the world, has a face shape known for allure. Can you tell which shape?
Her cheeks are wider than her jawline and her face (when she's not laughing) is shorter than it is wide, putting her in the Round shaped face category.
Courtney Cox trims her expressive face with dark, flowing locks. What shape frames her versatile physiognomy?
Her cheeks may be curvy, but the sweep of her hair offsets a decidedly strong jawline. Which face shape is Emily Deschanel's?
It's tough to miss a chiseled jaw and cheekbones like Deschanel's. Her fresh and smooth hair and makeup soften the tough angles of her Square face shape and blend for a gorgeous eye-catching mein.
Kate Middleton has the right quintessentially classic beauty to fit into a family of royalty, thanks to which face shape?

Iman also knows how best to flatter her bone structure and feature formation, with long flowing layers. What shape is she showing off?
Long face shapes like Iman's call for extra length in the hair to balance their ratios. Long tresses shorten the appearance of the face to even things out perceptually.

Mo'Nique's face shape might be a little harder to discern, in part because of the gorgeous apples her cheeks become when she smiles (see the beauty benefits of smiling). But can you figure out her shape?
Those apples put the round in her Rounded Square face shape. An angled jawline and clear lines offset the flowing locks and soft eyes that make her so approachable.
Renowned actress Meryl Streep certainly knows how to use her face's elegant, graceful lines. Can you eye her shape?
With her high forehead and more height than width in her facial structure, Streep has a Long face shape. She plays up the strength of this shape with nuances in blush and lip color.
