Glasses have taken a leading role in our look in recent years, and we no longer only care about the quality of vision they provide but also how they flatter us. Knowing which glasses suit our face shape can help us look more flattering.
These tips apply to both prescription glasses and sunglasses, as it is the shape and color of the frame that determine each style.
Types of glasses according to face shape:
Oval face:
It can be said that this face type is the luckiest in terms of proportions. High cheekbones, but smaller than the forehead. In general, any type of glasses will look good, you just need to consider the size relationship. If your face is small, better to choose small glasses rather than large ones.
Square face:
This face has the same size forehead as jawline. To counteract this shape, rounded glasses are a perfect option. We will focus attention on them and they will lengthen our features. As advice, avoid completely round glasses; what we want to achieve is an elongated element on the face, and fully round ones do not achieve this. Soft and plain tones will add even more height to the face.
Elongated face:
Exactly the opposite case to the previous one. People with elongated faces should avoid very defined shapes and angles. Choosing oval glasses in soft and light tones will soften the marked silhouette of the face.
Round face:
In this case, the goal will be to lengthen the features and distract from the symmetry of the face. Large, square glasses are the perfect choice. Thick frames with dark and intense tones. Focusing attention on the glasses is the right option.
Inverted triangle face:
This happens when the forehead area is much wider than the lower part of the chin. We should look for volume in the lower part of the face, which is why the aviator style, or teardrop lenses, are perfect in this case.
