OVAL FACE SHAPE: Oval face shapes are considered universal face shapes, as most styles of frames work well with this shape. Thicker frames will help accentuate your features and add angles to the curvature of your face. KIT's tip: look for frames that are as wide as the widest part of your face (which is around your eyes). Try filtering by: square, rectangle, or geometric.
ROUND FACE SHAPE: Round faces are generally the same width from the jaw to the brow, characterised by smooth and soft curves. Frames that are wider, angular and bold will help by creating an illusion that the face is longer and thinner by breaking up the structure of the face. KITS tip: opt for frames that are angular and geometric and avoid round shapes. Try filtering by rectangle, D frame, or square.
SQUARE FACE SHAPE: Square face shapes are characterised by a straight line from the forehead to the jaw. Round frames will help compliment and balance the bold features of a square face. KITS tip: ensure the width of slightly wider than your cheekbones. Try filtering by: round, oval, or modified round.
HEART FACE SHAPE: Heart face shapes are characterised as being widest at the brow, followed by high cheekbones and a narrowing towards the jaw. Frames that are slightly wider than the forehead will help draw attention away from a narrower chin. KITS tip: opt for frames that are round, light in colour, or rimless. Try filtering by: round, oval, aviator, or modified round.
TRIANGLE FACE SHAPE: Triangle face shapes are actually characterised as inverted triangles, with a wider top portion of the face which narrows toward the chin area. Bold colours and fun shapes will help add width and accent the upper portion of the face. KITS tip: try searching for frames with heavily accented color or detailing on the top half. Try filtering by: cat eye, or rectangle.
