The right sunglasses balance your features. The trick is to choose a frame shape that contrasts with your face shape.

Round faces

Angular frames, square or rectangular, add definition.

Square faces

Soften strong jawlines with round, oval or aviator frames.

Oval faces

Lucky you: almost every shape works, so go bold with oversized or cat-eye styles.

Heart-shaped faces

Frames that are wider at the bottom, or light rimless styles, balance a wider forehead.

Whatever the shape, always check for full UV400 protection.
