Elegance has long been synonymous with high cheekbones. In an era where trends ebb and flow, these sculpted facial features have endured as a symbol of beauty and refinement, though their popularity has fluctuated over time and across cultures.

So, why are high cheekbones this year's prevailing beauty trend?
The answer lies in the fusion of tradition and innovation.
