Let’s be real, what most girls admire about Kendall Jenner isn’t just her slim figure, her amazing bag collection, or even her perfect skin—it’s those cheekbones that seem to reach the sky! Seriously, she doesn’t even need a highlighter to make them pop. When she struts down the runway, before we even notice her outfit, we’re all captivated by how smooth and sculpted her face looks.
Ladies, if you’re dreaming of cheekbones like Kendall’s and are thinking about grabbing your highlighter, hold on! There are simpler ways and tools to help you achieve that look. So, let’s dive in.
Face rollers are all the rage right now, and for good reason. There are various types available, like jade rollers, microneedle rollers, and tourmaline stone rollers. Just spend five minutes a day rolling your face upwards with one of these, and you’ll see fantastic results.
Similarly, using Gua Sha stones to massage your face upwards for 10 minutes daily can give you a more lifted look, with a defined jawline and cheekbones, and even more refreshed eyes. It’s a great way to start your day, and we highly recommend it.
Did you know your face needs exercise too, just like your body? If you’re aiming for defined cheekbones and a smooth look, facial exercises are key. One of our favorites is the fish face. It’s simple, effective, and fun, helping to strengthen specific muscle groups to keep your skin firm and plump.
High cheekbones are when the bone under your eye, known as the malar bone, is prominent and might even be the widest part of your face. They give the illusion of sunken cheeks, creating a beautiful face shape. If you’re unsure where your cheekbones are, try rolling a pencil or using your index finger along your cheek until you find the bone. Alternatively, suck in your cheeks and use your fingers to feel where the cheekbone is.
For some, cheekbones are naturally prominent, while those with rounder faces might find them less noticeable. People who are naturally slim with long legs and a thin frame often have prominent cheekbones, whereas those with an apple-shaped face tend to have rounder faces and less obvious cheekbones.
Do you need high cheekbones to be a model? Not necessarily. While many agencies and brands prefer them, especially for top models, there are plenty of successful models without prominent cheekbones. Agencies and brands consider your entire face and appearance when selecting models. So, don’t worry if your cheekbones aren’t noticeable; it doesn’t mean you can’t have a successful modeling career.
Cheekbones are the foundation of your face beneath your skin, specifically the malar bones. If these bones are close to your eyes, you’re said to have high cheekbones. Lower cheekbones mean the malar bones are closer to the lower part of your nose.
Having high or low cheekbones doesn’t define you. Your genetic history and ethnic background significantly influence your facial features. Different cultures have varying standards of beauty, and high or low cheekbones can be seen as markers of beauty in some cultures.
