How to Choose the Right Glasses for Your Face

Best Glasses for Square Faces

If you have a squared face with harsher angles, your goal should be to soften them. A pair of circle glasses is the best way to do that. Round glasses will soften the look of your face and help it to look fuller and more circular.

Best Glasses for Round Faces

If you already have a rounded face, you’ll want to choose a pair of frames that make it look longer and slimmer. The best way to do that is with rectangular or square frames. They will help to elongate the circular shape of your face and give you a leaner look.

Best Glasses for Diamond-Shaped Faces

People with diamond-shaped faces often want to highlight their cheekbones and give more attention to their features, since they can otherwise be quite subtle. You can really let your cheekbones stand out with a pair of cat-shaped glasses. They’ll frame your face perfectly. Plus, they’re unique and will really help to showcase your personality.

Best Glasses for Heart-Shaped Faces

One of the biggest issues for people with heart-shaped faces is trying to draw attention away from their forehead. A pair of square glasses with curved edges can do the trick for you, as long as they don’t have any embellishing or decor on the top of the frames. They’ll help to draw attention to other areas of your face, making it look a bit longer and leaner.

How to Choose the Right Color!

Once you have the style of your frames picked out, it’s just as important to choose the right color. Thankfully, there’s a good rule of thumb to keep in mind when you’re considering color. If you have a warmer skin tone, your best colors will be:

*Gold

*Beige

*Brown

*Olive

If you have a cool, fair complexion, choose colors like:

  • Silver

  • Blue

  • Gray

  • Black

NOTE: These colors will work with your skin tone instead of against it, complementing your natural look right away.

Whether you’ve tried glasses before and didn’t like them or you’ve always worn contacts, I encourage you to give eyeglasses a try, and even to purchase multiple pairs so you can use them as an accessory for different outfits. They’re often more comfortable than contacts, and they’re great for showing off your individuality and sense of style.
