Choose the most suitable glasses frame

1. Oval Face

Characteristics: Slightly wider cheekbones with a gentle narrowing at the forehead and jaw.

Recommended Frames: Aviator, Cat-eye, Rectangle, Round, Wayfarer.

Reason: An oval face shape is versatile and can suit most frame styles. Tip: While most styles work, it's best to choose frames that are as wide as (or wider than) the broadest part of your face.

2. Round Face

Characteristics: Prominent cheeks and a rounded chin, with a width and length that are roughly the same.

Recommended Frames: Rectangle, Square, Wayfarer, Clubmaster.

Reason: These frame shapes add angles and can make a round face appear longer and more balanced. Tip: Avoid overly circular frames that can accentuate the roundness.

3. Square Face

Characteristics: A strong jaw, broad forehead, and equal face width and length.

Recommended Frames: Round, Aviator, Oval, Cat-eye.

Reason: Curved or rounded frames can soften the strong angles of a square face and add balance. Tip: Steer clear of very geometric and square frames that emphasize angularity.

4. Heart-shaped Face

Characteristics: Broad forehead, pointed chin, and high cheekbones.

Recommended Frames: Round, Cat-eye, Wayfarer, Pantos.

Reason: These frames can balance the broader forehead and narrower chin typical of heart-shaped faces. Tip: Avoid top-heavy styles or overly decorative designs that might imbalance facial proportions.

5. Rectangle (or Oblong) Face

Characteristics: Longer face length, with cheeks, forehead, and jaw having similar widths.

Recommended Frames: Wayfarer, Clubmaster, Diamond, Square.

Reason: These frames can add width, breaking up the face's length and adding balance. Tip: Avoid small or short frames that can make the face appear even longer.

6. Diamond Face

Characteristics: Narrow forehead and jawline with cheekbones as the widest part of the face.

Recommended Frames: Cat-eye, Oval, Pantos, Rectangle.

Reason: These frames accentuate the eyes and cheekbones, adding balance to a diamond face shape. Tip: Be cautious with narrow frames that might exaggerate the face's narrowness.

Remember the Details

While face shape is an important consideration, don't forget about other details like skin tone, eye color, and lifestyle. Additionally, the right frame should feel comfortable, fitting snugly on your nose and ears without pinching or slipping.

Lastly, trust your instincts. While guidelines can assist in narrowing down choices, your personal comfort and style preference should always be the final determinants. After all, glasses aren't just a functional accessory; they're an expression of who you are. Happy frame hunting!
