Firstly, pay attention to your basic face shape. If you can’t decide yourself, enlist the help of a friend. If your face is small sixed, it’s better to look for smaller styles, while larger-shaped faces will obviously look for something a little bigger. It’s important not to choose a style that’s similar in shape to your face, otherwise the style may not have the flattering effect you’d expect.

Always select a lens colour to suit your skin tone. Those with a lighter-coloured complexion should always look at amber or light-coloured rose tints. while silver and gold tend to complement the darker tones. If you are purchasing your glasses with a view to using them for sporting activities, it is imperative to understand that different colours tend to work better for different sports.

Those lucky enough to have an oval shaped face can usually enjoy selecting from the full range of eyewear although wider frame styles usually look more suitable. If, however, your face is round in shape, you should be looking at a wide pair of rectangle-shaped glasses to give a thinner effect, and moreover those with a heart-shaped face should try to find a frame that’s narrow in design.

The narrow, oval shapes offer good look to those with diamond-shaped faces and small foreheads and chins, but with high cheekbones. Square frames with rounded corners are suitable as long as they stay within the high-point of the cheekbones and the chin can be softened by oval shapes that draw attention to the eye.

Those with square faces should try oval-shaped frames while oblong-shaped faces can be softened by glasses in either square or round frames that give an illusion of width.
