Sunglasses are a staple accessory all year round, but it can be challenging to find a pair that suits your face shape—some look too big or too small, and the bold, fun shaped frames certainly aren’t for everyone. In addition to considering UV protection, lens type, tint color, and your personal aesthetic, you should also choose the shape that compliments your features best. So, whether you’re looking for brands like Rayban, Oakley, or just something to suit your prescription lens, here’s how to pick the perfect sunglasses for every face shape:

1. Round shape

Round shaped faces feature wide foreheads, full cheeks, and a soft curve. If this matches how you would describe your face, your best shaped sunglasses are square or rectangle frames, as they will bring depth and structure to your features. Be sure to avoid circle or oval sunglasses, as these can make your face appear wider. If you want to create even more depth with your sunglasses, opt for thick, dark frames.

2. Oval shape

Oval shaped faces have soft, gently rounded curves and they are proportionate from the top of the face to the bottom of the face. If you have this face shape, you’re in luck—any style of sunglasses will suit you! The best suited style, however, are aviators. This is thanks to the depth they add and how they contour the faces silhouette. If you want to take it a step further, choose delicate, thin gold or silver wire frames to enhance the softness of your face.

3. Heart shape

With a wider, broad forehead, defined cheekbones, and a narrow chin, heart-shaped faces are complimented best with sunglasses wide at the top and narrower at the bottom. With this, there are several options—cat eye frames, retro square frames, and wayfarer frames. Each of these styles work to pull the focus in towards the center of the face and create more balance with your features.

4. Square shape

Square shaped faces have wide proportions throughout the forehead to the chin, with a more defined jawline. To create contrast and soften the features, you should select round or oval shaped sunglasses. Square or rectangular frames should be avoided, as the goal is to soften, and these styles will only sharpen the features further.

Now that you know what to search for, you can get to looking for the perfect pair—remember to choose sunglasses that are comfortable, express your personality, and you feel confident in. Happy sunglasses shopping!
