How to Choose your Sunglasses According to your Face Type

With the right sunglasses, you can have a unique sense of style. However, you must identify your face shape and then match it to a certain model of sunglasses in order to locate the ideal sunglasses for your face.

Sunglasses for Round Shaped Face

The angles of a round face are less distinct and have visible curves. The best eyewear for round faces are  rectangular, square, wrap, and shield-shaped glasses as they complement round face shapes the most by lengthening and defining your face.

Sunglasses for Square Shaped Face

Square faces are characterized by a broad forehead and a strong jaw line. They are typically about the same width and length across the face. Round or oval-shaped glasses work best for square faces because they soften the sharpness and give the face a more harmonious appearance. Aviators, butterflies, round, or any frame design that favours oval or circular curves are a few examples of shapes that would suit square faces nicely. 

Sunglasses for Rectangular / Oblong Shaped Face

Long and narrow with few angles, rectangle or oblong faces  look particularly good on sunglasses with thick frames and larger rectangular lenses.  The sharp angles and bold lines will give rectangular faces an edge, sharpening otherwise delicate features. Other options are sunglasses with tall or deep lenses and retro style frames. This makes wrap, shield, square, and rectangle eyewear ideal for the face type.  However, oblong faces should avoid small frames  Avoid small frames.

Sunglasses For Diamond Shaped Face

The cheekbones are the largest region of the face in a face with a diamond shape,  defined by a narrow jawline and forehead. Wide or high cheekbones will look better with oval and rimless frames. Frames for diamond benefit from eyewear with soft curves that are not wider than the cheekbones.

Sunglasses for Oval Shaped Face

Oval faces are the lucky ones since every single frame suitable  Because of their generally even, slightly rounded features, oval faces look good in just about any frame . Just make  sure you choose sunglasses that cover the face from the eyebrows to the cheekbones rather than ones with oversized frames that obscure the symmetrical characteristics.  

Sunglasses For Triangular Shaped Face

The width of a heart-shaped or triangular face, often known as a triangle, is greatest at the temples and lowest at the chin. To  lengthen the face, the finest sunglasses for faces with a heart or triangle shape have wide lower edges and no straight lines at the top. This makes  cat-eye types or glasses with rounded edges work best. Aviator, rimless. butterfly, or shields frames tend to fit.
