Welcome to the Kitchener Face Essences Quiz!
As you work through this quiz, choose the image+description that best matches your face. At times, we do have two lines that will fight over a feature, as such it may be appropriate occasionally to split an answer between two options – though I recommend you try to find the best fitting one whenever applicable. As a rule, individuals will have 1-3 lines combining to make their unique face. More will be explained upon your completion of this quiz. Good luck!

If you have doubts or are confused by your grouping, I recommend taking a forward-facing picture of yourself and comparing to the curated face groups on my website for which group your face best fits. If you are struggling to place your face, no worries! Any new visual system will take time to adjust to. If you prefer having someone assist you in this, I do offer consultation – through which I can give you my personal thoughts and opinions.
Thank You!
