What glasses suit my face shape?
 | OvalWell balanced, softly rounded. Forehead is slightly wider than the jaw and cheekbones are high. |
 | RoundWide forehead, fairly short face, often with full cheeks and rounded chin. Try: Styles with high-set sides, frames with colour or decoration on the temples. Avoid: Small, round and large frames that make the face look rounder; colour or decoration on the lower rim.
|
 | HeartA broad forehead curving down to a small chin and mouth. Try: Smaller frames without decoration on the temples; rounded, slender or square styles with lower sides. Avoid: Styles that are wide at the top of the frames.
|
 | Square
A broad forehead, a wide jaw line and square chin. Try: Round and oval frames to soften the jawline. Avoid: Thin angular and square frames as these will exaggerate square features.
|
 | TriangularA narrow forehead that broadens towards the jawline. Try: Bold strong and wide shapes. Avoid: Small narrow frames.

Handy hints
• Your eyes should sit in the centre of each lens
• Your eyebrow shouldn’t be visible above the frame
• Pale skin tones suit cool colours such as silver, white or black while warmer skin stones suit vibrant colours such as orange, pink and gold.
