Read MoreNational Sunglasses Day: The Best Shades for Your Face Shape
Jun 23, 2022
It’s time to prep for National Sunglasses Day on June 27! Initially created by The Vision Council, this day celebrates the importance of wearing sunnies to properly protect those peepers. What better time to wear sunglasses than during the peak season of sunniness?
Join the movement and guard your eyes against harmful UV rays by selecting the best sunglasses to match your face shape. Here are our tips for finding your face shap and picking the perfect pair every single time!
Sunglasses for Heart-Shaped Faces
Those with heart-shaped faces have pointed chins and wider foreheads. Many people with a heart-shaped face also have a widow’s peak hairline. The heart-shaped face club includes Reese Witherspoon, Kourtney Kardashian and Harry Styles.
The Ray-Ban Clubmaster frames have an ever-so-slight cat-eye style and feature a browline trim, which provides a nice counterbalance to the face. Oakley Holbrook sunglasses offer square frames that help create symmetry of the cheekbones and forehead.
Shades for Round Faces
You likely have a rounder jawline and overall symmetrical features, with the length of your face roughly the same as the width. DJ Khalid, Drew Barrymore, Mindy Kaling and Chrissy Teigen all fall into the round-face category.
Add some angularity to the face by popping on widened rectangular glasses like the Costa Del Mar Fantail 580G Matte Gray sunglasses, or try cool colored lenses set into geometric-style frames like the King Ice Yellow Geo sunglasses.
Sunnies for Oval Shapes
Similar to round, oval-shaped faces are a bit longer than wide, with widest width around the cheekbones. Beyonce’, Courteney Cox and Rihanna are just a few of our fave oval-faced queens.
Lucky you! Almost all shades complement an ovular face. Wear everything from Oakley Radar EV Path sunglasses to classic Ray-Ban Aviators.
Square-Faced Shades Styles
Similar in dimension to a round face, people with square faces tend to have more angular features and wider jawlines and foreheads. Rob Lowe, Brad Pitt, Zac Efron, Angelina Jolie and Kelly Osbourne all have square-shaped faces.
It’s a matter of simple geometrics. Balance out your square face with round- or oval-shaped sunglasses, like the Ray-Ban Marshalls.
Popular Sunglasses for Triangle- and Diamond-Shaped Faces
A narrower forehead, defined jaw and wide cheekbones characterize this rarest of face shapes. Yvette Nicole Brown, Tyra Banks and J Lo. sparkle with diamond-shaped faces. While triangular faces include a broader jawline and narrower forehead, like “Suit and Tie” singer Justin Timberlake.
Maintain facial symmetry by choosing a semi-rimless pair of sunglasses like the Oakley Flak 2.0 Matte XL shades or Ray-Ban RB3183 sunglasses, or add visual interest with browline sunglasses.
