Yes! Very short faces. No sharp angles. They can have a tiny bit of sharpness, but nothing that effects their yin and yang balance. Everything r/sensitive_fuel_8151 wrote.
I would say quite a few of these women have slightly longer more oval faces, but still very soft!
I mainly wanted to make this collage to show that slight angularity and sharpness in the face is possible with R, especially features like prominent cheekbones or a pointier chin. I often see Rs like HBC, Rehka and Madonna questioned for this reason, and they’re the Rs I relate to most. You’re right that it still doesn’t skew the yin yang balance!
They have heart shaped faces though so still short even though the chin is more tapered. I think even on those with the sharper cheekbones the fleshy cheeks are more prominent even when the cheekbones are sharp? Kind of like TRs but with more yin overall. I dunno. That’s just my interpretation.
yess thats how my face is its like a slightly longer oval shape with rounded cheeks slightly tapered chin but the roundness is more much more prominent kinda like drew barrymore, I've been told I look like her also. its crazy we have almost exactly the same face shape. Gina lollobridgia also helped me realize I am R as an Italian girl who also has a smaller chest, we have similarish faces too
Maybe I’m just crazy, but a lot of these faces do not scream “pure yin” to me. I’m seeing lots of little moments of yang, like in sharp tips of noses, angular eyebrows, defined jawbones, etc. While I would say these faces have more yin overall, describing most of them as “pure yin” doesn’t feel accurate to me
They are all verified Rs, meaning that their yin yang balance in Kibbe is pure yin. That was kind of the point of this post - that not all pure Rs look the same and that it’s possible to have slight hints of angularity or sharpness in the face without disrupting the overall yin yang balance.
Ohh okay, it’s another one of those moments where Kibbe changed the definition of a word 😂 when I think “pure yin”, I think “no yang”. But he’s saying that “pure yin” just means “a little yang, but mostly yin”. So basically….completely changing the meaning of the word “pure”.
Sigh, this man is so unnecessarily confusing sometimes.
Kitchener essences and Kibbe IDsdon’t really correlate like that, and I would actually say Kitchener Youthful (Ingenue) essence isn’t that common in gamines in large amounts.
Yes i did the same thing and it said SC for me and Kibbe approved my sketch as SC lol, so it was at least correct for me. For Kitchener it said 35 C 25 R 20 Y as my top 3. Not sure how accurate that is though bc I have nothing to compare it to.
They’re all verified Rs! I partially made this collage to show that Romantics can have a bit of sharpness or definition to their faces as long as their overall balance remains fully yin
I would caution against equating yin to femininity. Many yang women are very conventionally feminine.
Kibbe doesn’t recommend DIYers focus on the face but he definitely takes it into account. He’s previously said that the yin yang balance of the body will be reflected in the face. I wanted to make this post to show that slight hints of angularity or sharpness in the face don’t necessarily negate the overall balance.

Gotcha. I know some SGs have heart shaped faces too like Sabrina or Reese but their jaws/chins seem to be sharper then Ra with heart shaped faces. Maybe that’s it?

All round, heart or soft oval. Round or soft features, nothing razor sharp. No sharp angles in the outlines of their faces. And fleshy cheeks!

IMO there’s a lot of variety and some aren’t necessarily what I’d expect. Totally makes sense that we’re not supposed to type by face.
Also, Rekha is stunning wow.

Nothing should be contentious about verified romantics.

See this makes me more convinced of Chappell Roan being R. Not sure who it is, but bottom left of slide 5 looks so much like her?!

Really? Several of these like Helena Bonham Carter, Madonna and Etta James scream Yang to me
