A suitable pair of glasses can adjust the proportions of our facial features, visually improve the facial contours, make our face look more harmonious at the same time, highlight our facial advantages, make us look more attractive. There is no one-size-fits-all answer to beauty, and popularity does not always suit you. Choosing the right glasses with the right effect for different face shapes is the complete answer. Today, we are going to discuss the most suitable shapes of glasses for ladies with square, round, oval, heart-shaped and long faces, with a selection of glasses mods.
Square face
The most prominent features of a square face are the angular jawline and the cheekbones and forehead, which are almost as wide as the jawline. The width and length of the face is approximately square.
The first rule when choosing frames for square-faced women is to add some curves to the face. The classic and common round or oval frames are perfect for square-faced women. If you want something a little more special, like a more feminine look, try cat-eye frames. The slight upward curve draws the eye to the eye and the sharp corners and curves add variety to our too-straight facial lines.
Round face
A round face is similar in length to width, usually has no obvious focal point, and the jawline or chin may also be rounded.
Women with round faces should avoid choosing frames that are too small, both in terms of lens height and frame width, as well as round frames. These can clash with a round face and make your face look much larger than it actually is. Choose glasses that are the same width as your face, as well as square frames to add some angles to your face and visually balance it out.
Oval face
Oval faces have the same rounded lines, but are longer than wide and have a pronounced chin.
Ladies with oval faces have more freedom in their choice of eyewear; you can try almost any shape. So you can be bold and explore the type that suits you according to style and fashion. Round frames emphasise softness, while square frames are drier. Lightweight metal frames are a good choice for adding dimension to your features.
Heart shaped face
A heart-shaped face has a broad forehead and prominent cheekbones, with a jawline that is not clearly defined and a pointed chin that looks like an inverted triangle.
If you don't like people focusing on your forehead and cheekbones, our advice for heart-shaped women is to avoid glasses with too much embellishment at the top or narrow frames with too low a lens height. Also choose a shape with a flatter top. As a rule of thumb, the width of the frame should match the width of your face.
Long Face
A long face is one where the length is significantly greater than the width so that other facial features are overlooked; it may be round or somewhat angular. If you just want your face to look shorter, you can also refer to the following suggestions.
There are many reasons why a face may look long, it could be a high forehead, a long chin, or a long nose. For a high forehead, changing your hairstyle will be more effective. A pair of glasses with relatively high frames can increase the coverage area in the middle of the face and reduce the impression of a long face. Wider, thicker frames balance the horizontal-to-vertical ratio, focusing the eye on the middle of the face and providing some visual improvement for long chins. You can't go wrong with browline glasses and gradient glasses!
