Quick Answer Updated
Jawlines are defined by shadows β€” light from the side or slightly above creates the contrast that makes jawlines visible. Front-facing flash and flat lighting eliminate those shadows completely. Upload your photo and type 'restore jawline definition with natural shadows.' EditThisPic brings back the definition the lighting erased. Free to try, no signup.

Common Issues

The correction looks unnatural or overdone

Why: AI sometimes over-corrects, making changes too obvious

Try: make the correction more subtle and natural β€” it should look like a better photo, not an edit

'Subtle and natural' is the most important phrase for appearance fixes

Fix changed my face too much β€” doesn't look like me

Why: Aggressive edits can alter facial proportions and identity

Try: keep my face exactly the same, only fix the specific issue I mentioned

Be very specific about what to change and explicitly state what to keep

The edit looks obvious in comparison to the original

Why: Strong local edits can create visible transitions with surrounding areas

Try: blend the edited area smoothly with the surrounding skin and features

Good blending is key β€” AI handles this well with explicit instructions

Lighting changed after the correction

Why: Localized edits can alter the apparent lighting on the face

Try: match the lighting on the corrected area to the rest of the photo

Mention 'consistent lighting' to ensure the edit doesn't create new artifacts

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the jawline really just need different lighting?

Yes. Jawline definition is almost 100% about shadow placement. Professional photographers always use side lighting for portraits specifically to define the jawline. Your selfie flash does the opposite.

Will this create a jawline I don't actually have?

No. It adds the shadows that natural lighting would create on your existing bone structure. The result matches how you look when someone sees you in person with normal lighting.

Can I fix jawline definition in video call screenshots?

Yes. Webcams and laptop screens create the worst flat lighting for jawlines. Upload the screenshot and fix the same way.

Does this work on all face shapes?

Yes. Every face shape has a jawline that lighting can enhance. Round faces benefit from subtle side shadow; angular faces get more dramatic definition.

Is this really free?

Yes β€” 1 free edit per week, no account needed. Plans start at $3.99/month for unlimited.

Can I restore jawline on my phone?

Yes. Works in any mobile browser. No app needed.
