Is it better to have a lean face or be bigger?

My face is a bit bloated, and i heard people saying that lean face can improve SMV coz your jaw looks more defined. I know its good to stay lean while bulking, but tbh i couldnt be bothered by a lean bulk this year so i gained some fat.

When im bulking i feel more comfortable as my clothes fit better (arm hugging the sleeve etc)

So the question is should i cut now to get to decent BF or carry on with my bulk and cut for summer? Im ~18% bf
