How to Choose the Perfect Glasses

How to Choose the Perfect Glasses for Your Face Shape: Useful Tips and Recommendations

 

Choosing glasses is more than just finding a fashionable accessory. It’s an important process where you need to consider your face shape, style, and personal preferences. We’ve prepared some tips to help you choose frames that highlight your uniqueness.

 

  1. Identify Your Face Shape

Faces are usually categorized into several shapes: round, oval, square, triangular, and heart-shaped. Understanding your face shape will help you choose the frames that suit you best.

Round Face

  • Features: Soft lines, cheeks are the widest part of the face, rounded chin.
  • Frame Recommendations: Opt for glasses with more defined and angular shapes to create balance and visually lengthen the face. Rectangular and square frames work well.

Oval Face

  • Features: Harmonious proportions, longer than it is wide, with soft lines.
  • Frame Recommendations: You're in luck! An oval face shape is considered universal, and most frames will suit you. Look for glasses with defined lines or classic “aviators.”

Square Face

  • Features: Pronounced jawline, broad forehead, defined angles.
  • Frame Recommendations: Choose rounder or oval frames to soften facial features. It’s best to avoid square and rectangular frames.

Triangular Face

  • Features: Narrow chin, wider forehead.
  • Frame Recommendations: To balance proportions, select frames with a wider upper part. “Cat-eye” frames or “aviators” can help to balance facial features.

Heart-Shaped Face

  • Features: Broad forehead, narrow chin, features resembling a heart shape.
  • Frame Recommendations: Rounded or oversized frames can reduce the visual width of the upper part of the face and add harmony.

 

 

  1. Consider Your Style and Lifestyle

Glasses are not only about face shape but also about your lifestyle, style, and individuality. For example:

  • If you’re active and do sports, it might be worth choosing lighter and more durable frames.
  • If you value classic and elegance, go for more delicate frames.
  • For those who love to experiment and prefer bold accents, unconventional frames with unique designs or colors are a great choice.

 

 

  1. Frame Color and Your Skin Tone

Selecting the right frame color is also essential. Consider your skin tone:

  • Warm Skin Tone (golden undertone): Look for frames in gold, brown, green, honey, or tortoiseshell shades.
  • Cool Skin Tone (pink undertone): Choose frames in silver, blue, black, or gray colors.

 

  1. Consider the Size and Fit of the Glasses

Remember that frames should be not only stylish but also comfortable. Pay attention to frame width, temple length, and nose fit. Make sure they don’t pinch or slip. Note that in most glasses, the temples (earpieces) can be adjusted, but adjusting the frame itself is more complicated, so focus first on how the glasses fit on your nose. If the fit is comfortable and the bridge of the frame follows the shape of your nose, this is your option. Even if the temples are slightly wider or narrower than needed, they can easily be adjusted to fit your head shape.

We hope these tips help you choose the perfect glasses that will become part of your style and emphasize your uniqueness.
