Earrings for your face shape

Choose your face shape to see the earring styles that flatter it, and what to avoid.

Your face shape

Not sure? Compare your forehead, cheekbones, jaw and face length. The widest part and the jaw line usually tell you.

Sensitive ears

If earrings make your ears itch or turn red, look for implant-grade titanium, niobium, platinum, or gold of 14k and above, and check that posts are labeled nickel-free. Plated costume posts are a common trigger. If a reaction does not settle, ask a doctor.
