The eye glasses frame that will light up your face may not be the latest fashion design. Is it better to wear the latest fad design in your eye glasses frame or to wear the frame that makes your face look its best? In order to find the frame that will light up your face and spotlight your face it will mean using the frame that fits your face and is the best shape. This may turn out to be something that is not the latest trend.
Your first consideration in choosing the perfect frame for your face is to find a shape that balances the shape of your face. The opposite of the shape of your face is your best choice for a good look. The size you choose is however, a different consideration. The frame size needs to match the size of your face. A frame that is too big for delicate features will overpower the face. Frames that are larger will make a dramatic effect if the facial features are large enough to handle the frames. If, however, your objective is to emphasize or draw attention to delicate features then the larger frame is a good choice. Square frames are excellent for emphasizing a square jaw and drawing attention to this feature.
The shapes of faces vary and there are basic kinds. Each type of face needs to be addressed differently by using a frame shape that will enhance the positive qualities of the face. The oval shaped face is very lucky because it is considered the most perfect shape of face and almost any type of eye glasses frame will work good. All the person needs to do who does have the oval shaped face is to try on several different kinds of frames and see which frame they like the best.
If your face is round, you will need to choose a frame that will tend to minimize the round curves of your face. A frame that has square lines can work well but keep the height downsized. This will make the face seem wider and less round.
The heart shaped face presents a challenge. This is the face that appears to be wider at the forehead and temples and then gets narrow at the chin area. To balance this kind of shape, the frame needs to be quite the opposite of the shape of the face with the heart shape inverted in the frame. The narrow part of the frame needs to be at the top and the wider at the bottom of the frame to act as an offset to the shape of the face. This may be difficult to locate so a good choice is a frame that is square at the bottom part with a rounded kind of top. It does not matter if it is rimless or partly rimless as both will be an enhancement to the shape of the face.
If you have a square kind of shape to your face where the cheeks, forehead, temples and the line of the jaw are all about the same width and the length is about the same. This kind of shape works best with rounded kinds of frames or oval shapes. The best choices will have the width greater than the height to balance out the square shape of the face.
When your face shape is longer than it is wide it is considered a narrow face. For this type of face shape the best choice is a frame that is wider than it is long. A frame that is wider than the width of your face will make your face look even narrower and the corrective part of the lenses will not be in the right spot to be effective. The frames that are semi-rimless will help break up the length of the narrow face.
Now you have a few choices in finding the eye glasses frame that will light up your face and enhance its positive aspects. A perfect fit of frame will also insure that the corrective lens will be in the best place on the face to insure perfect sight.
