How to choose glasses that are perfect for your face type?

Glasses are not only the main summer accessory, they also protect our eyes from harmful radiation, reduce fatigue and complement your stylish look. In case, of course, you pick them right.

USEFUL TIP:

Take a marker, lipstick, soap, or pencil. Stand in front of the mirror and draw the contour of  your face, starting from the chin and ending with the hairline. Take a step back and look at the shape you got.

Round Face

Your task is to visually lengthen the face, so it is better to choose frames of dark colors. To balance the proportions of your face, choose a frame with a width greater than height.

Stay away from rimless and narrow frames, frames blocking your eyebrows and colored lenses.

Oval Face

The main task is not to ruin the harmonious proportions of the face, so avoid too massive glasses. It is better if the width of the frame is equal to the width of the face or slightly wider. Make sure the top of the frame aligns with the eyebrow line.

Stay away from frames with angles, too massive or narrow frames.

Square Face

Rectangular or square eyewear shape will overload the face. Rounded frames will help to visually balance and soften face proportions.

Stay away from narrow/tiny frames and frames with angles.

Rectangular Face

You need to visually expand the face, so choose large, massive glasses. Transparent glasses – with a thin frame to match the skin.

Stay away from small and colorful frames!

Triangle Face

The main task is to expand the upper part of the face and distract attention from the bottom. Choose glasses with a wide top. The bottom of the glasses should not be square, sharp or with a clear line.

Stay away from boxy and narrow frames!
