For Men: Your Face and the Right Glasses

 

When looking for new glasses, identifying your face shape and which frame styles complement it best are key in finding your perfect pair. To help you in this, first, identify your face shape. Is it more oval, square, heart-shaped, round, etc. Check yourself in a mirror, then look at the chart below.

Use this chart when purchasing sunglasses also.

The best way to determine what face shape you have is to look in the mirror or take a picture of yourself and then examine these four facial features: 

• The length of your face
• The width of your forehead
• The width of your cheekbones
• Your jawline

It may also help you to pull back your hair or wet your hair down first before examining your face. 

You’ll want to pay attention to what part of your face is the widest as well as the longest. By taking note of the widest and longest parts of your face, you can easily determine what type of face shape you have or if your face falls into more than one shape.

Once you’ve determined the length and width of your features, you can then make an educated guess on what type of face shape you have by comparing your features to the descriptions above.
