Visual weight is a measure of the force that an element exerts to attract the eye.

Heavy visuals pull the focus and create a feeling of boldness and power, while lighter visuals are often associated with elegance and softness.
A subject with "high" or "heavy" visuals weight captures a lot of attention, while also detracting attention from the rest of the image at the same time.

When assessing the visual impact of your face we look at individual features and their perceived heaviness.
This is determined by their light and shadow contrast.

QUIZ AT THE END TO FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU ARE

Visual weight is the reason some faces look more intense than others:

In this example the only difference is a haircut and the hair color, yet it makes him look like a different person and changes your focus:

This is generally why one change in your features can have such a drastic effect on the visual perception of your entire face:

Despite having similar hair and makeup, one of these two look elegant and the other looks edgy:

This is also why certain makeup styles only suit certain faces:

Though this part mostly only matters for photos, jewelry has importance and you should find some that suits you.
Patterns will also have an effect on your visual weight:
