How to Choose the Most Flattering Sunglasses for Your Face Shape

Sunglasses have such a glamorous impact on the way we look. Different sunglasses frame styles can either play up or play down your unique facial contours. A pair of ultra-flattering sunglasses can balance your face shape and emphasize your best features. In general, you want sunglasses to compliment your face shape by bringing balance. Therefore, you want to avoid the same sunglass shape as your facial contours. Our face shape guide for sunglasses underlines what you should focus on when shopping for the perfect sunglasses.

Absolutely gorgeous Heart face shape

A heart face is widest at the forehead and gradually narrows to the jaw line. Because your face narrows at the jaw, you want to find sunglasses that broaden the appearance of your jaw line and minimize the width of the forehead. We recommend frames with thin temples and detailing on the lower portion to create balance. Cat-eyed and oversized frames are perfect for you.

Head-turner Square face shape

A square face shape means a strong jaw line slightly wider than your forehead, a wide chin and cheekbones. Bold features characterize your distinctive look and let you get attention wherever you go. You should look for thinner frames that are slightly wider than your cheekbones like round, oval and butterfly to highlight your eyes, and balance to your angular features. Try to avoid square, boxy frames.

Utterly feminine Round face shape
A round face has a width and height that are roughly equivalent. Characterized by feminine and soft contours. You want frames that make your face look longer and thinner, therefore your goal is to find frames that provide contrast to your face shape. Geometric shapes like horizontal frames, Wayfarers and rectangle shapes will offset this shape’s natural curvature.

Lucky in life Oval face shape
The perfectly balanced shape - an oval face shape is the most versatile to fit almost any style of sunglasses. Your face is with slightly wider cheekbones and a gentle narrowing at the forehead and jaw. Since you can pull off just about anything, have some fun with bold styles and colours that compliment your style. The only advice is to look for frames that are in proportion to your face.

Although sunglasses are a great fashion accessory in the summer, you need to look for a pair that protects your eyes from both UVB and UVA rays. They also help to prevent wrinkles by protecting the delicate skin around the eyes from premature ageing. So, don’t forget to throw on sunglasses year around, even on cloudy days.
