Figuring out your face shape<\/a> is the first step to choosing the right frame. Do you have a square, round, oval, or heart-shaped face? If you\u2019ve never taken the chance to find out, do it now. Take a selfie of yourself looking head-on towards your camera, then use a piece of tracing paper to outline the edge of your face \u2013 this will help you to determine, once and for all, the shape of your face.<\/p>

Square face<\/span> <\/h2>

A square face shape usually has bold features such as a strong jawline, prominent forehead, and wide cheekbones. You will want to soften these features with curvier frames like oval, round, cat eye<\/strong> and butterfly<\/strong> frames. Going rimless<\/strong> or semi-rimless<\/strong> can help accentuate your eyes and balance out that firm jawline.<\/p>

Oval face<\/span> <\/h2>

Lucky you! With an oval face, you can pull off most frames. Rectangle <\/strong>frames can look particularly good as their horizontal appearance can help balance out the vertical orientation of an oval face. Cat eye<\/strong> styles, with their upswept outer edges, will compliment high cheekbones<\/a>.<\/p>

Round face<\/span> <\/h2>

Distinctively soft, contoured and feminine features come hand-in-hand with round faces. The key is to invest in shades that will help create a longer, thinner look. Horizontal<\/strong> frames and rectangle <\/strong>shapes will offset this appearance. Try classic Wayfarers<\/strong> and avoid frames that are too small as they can undermine your facial features.<\/p>

Heart-shaped face<\/span> <\/h2>

A typical heart-shaped face features a broader forehead area and a narrow chin. To elongate your look and even out proportions, invest in frames that are light in colour<\/strong> or frames that are wider at the top<\/strong> than they are at the bottom, such as aviators<\/strong>.<\/p>
