When it comes to selecting the perfect eyewear, your face shape plays a crucial role in determining which frames will complement your features. For those with round faces, the goal is to create contrast and add definition.
How to Tell if You Have a Round Face
A round face typically has softer angles with a width and length that are roughly equivalent. Key characteristics include full cheeks, a rounded chin, and a forehead and jawline that are about the same width. If your face fits this description, choosing frames that add structure and definition can enhance your natural beauty.
Best Frames for Round Faces
- Angular and Geometric Shapes: Angular frames are a fantastic choice for round faces. These frames add sharp lines and angles, balancing the soft curves of your face. Look for square, rectangular, or geometric shapes that provide a striking contrast to your face’s roundness.
- Bold and Oversized Frames: Bold and oversized frames can also work wonders for round faces. They draw attention away from the face’s roundness and add a fashionable flair to your look. Cat-eye frames, in particular, are a stylish option that provides both definition and a touch of vintage glamor.
- Clear and Light-Colored Frames: While darker frames are typically recommended for their ability to add definition, clear and light-colored frames can also be flattering for round faces. These frames can create a chic and modern look without overwhelming your features.
Now, let’s highlight some of Zenni’s best frames for round faces.
