Picking out frames should be fun! It’s took abit time, but ya, you still have to choose the frame that you like and suit your face. Before choosing any frame, it’s important to get to know your face a little better ! Do you know what kind of face shape you have? Heres some top tips for determing your face shape, and it will help you find the perfect sunglasses and glasses that suit you.

Oval Faces

You are very lucky if you have a oval face ! A face with an oval shape features higher and slightly wider cheekbones that is slightly narrow towards the forehead. This long, rounded face shape allows you to pull off almost any style ! HOW LUCKY YOU ARE ! Feel free to go bold with a funky color, texture or any frame shape that you are happy with. Rectangle, Square, Round, Horn, Wayfarer, Tortoise — The possibilities are infinite !

Square Faces

Do you have a wide jawline and square chin? Do your face equal in width and length but with clearly defined features and a deep forehead? Then you probably have a square face shape. This face shapes tend to have angular features, meaning that the most flattering glasses will soften by creating curves and giving the face length.

Heart Shaped Faces

Heart-shaped faces are widest at the forehead with a narrow chin and high cheekbones. This considered to be one of the most desirable face shapes ! To look your best and brightest, find a oval shaped or rounded frames that are very thin and lightly colored. This is to draw the full attention to the top of your face and add balance of the width of your face. Try frame that are slightly wider than your forehead to add more balance and beauty to your features.

Round Shaped Faces

With a proportion that’s relatively equal in width and length, round faces should look to sharp-angled frames to add a little extra definition and depth. We do recommend that you look for glasses with a rectangle shape or more angular details. Cat eye and glasses would work well too. That will create a illusion of longer face.

Diamond Shaped Faces

Diamond shaped faces are the rarest face shape. Diamond-shaped faces are characterized by their full cheeks and narrow forehead and jawline. The best look for your face shape is a rimless or round frame with a strong brow line like cat-eye eyeglasses. Shapes will help to balance your face and highlight your favorite features.
