Just as in shopping for the perfect outfit, picking out the perfect pair of sunglasses or glasses means you need to know what looks best with your features.
Shopping online can make assessing these things a little tricky. But pay attention to the product description and look at the measurements. It may indicate whether the pair of sunglasses fit smaller faces, medium-sized faces or large faces. Also remember that nothing made for the masses is made perfect, and nothing certainly stays perfect.
Figuring Out Your Face Shape
Faces are made up of a combination of shapes and angles, and most will not fit precisely into a basic shape category. Therefore, when using this guide, pick the shape your features most strongly resemble.

A heart-Shaped face has a broad forehead, tapering to a small neat chin and mouth. Choose smaller styles without decorative detail on the temples. TRY: Rounded or square styles, with lower set sides. Top-heavy style that balance the width of the jaw. |

A round face is fairly short with a wide forehead, often with full cheeks and a rounded chin. TRY: Styles that are wider than they are deep and square or upswept shapes that draw attention to your upper face. Choose styles with high set sides, and those with colour or decoration on the temples. |

An oval face is well balanced and softly rounded; the forehead is slightly wider than the jaw, which curves gently, and the cheekbones are high. An oval face looks good in most styles, so be adventurous! TRY: Modern small, geometric styles. |
