How do you choose glasses for an oval face?

Tips And Tricks

If you have an oval face, it means that your face is well-proportioned. The length of your face is larger than width, your forehead is wider than your chin, your cheeks are the biggest part of your face, and your jawline is soft and round. The oval face shape is balanced that suits various glasses and hairstyles. If you have an oval face, though, try to find glasses that bring out your face’s natural features, keep your facial proportions in check, and don’t make your face look too big.

Consider these things when selecting glasses for an oval face:


Shape of the frame:

Pick a frame which will keep your oval face’s natural balance. For oval faces, rectangle frames, round frames, cat-eye frames, geometric frames, and brow-line frames will perform well.

Frame size:

Think about how frame size and face shape are related. Oval faces look best with frames that match or exceed the width of the largest part of the face. Avoid frames that are too small or too big as they disrupt the oval face’s proportions.

Frame color and pattern:

When you shop for frames, making sure that the colors and designs go with your hair color, skin tone, and style. Choose bright colors or patterns that stand out to make a statement. If you're not sure what your style is, go with neutral colors like black, brown, or tortoiseshell.

Bridge fit:

Look at how the glasses fit across the bridge of your nose. The frame mustn’t slide or poke into the bridge of your nose. An imbalanced face can result from a bridge that is too narrow or too wide.


Frame material:

Acetate frames come in more colors and patterns than metal frames, which look clean and sleek. People with oval faces can pick the frame material that works best for them based on their taste and way of life.


Style of temples:

Choose a temple style that enhances the overall look of the glasses. Stand out with thin, textured, or decorated temples for your style.
