We like to choose our glasses according to our face.
And, for this, men are not left out either.
Choosing the right eyeglass frames is important.
Because it is possible that we wear them for a long time!
To help you not make a mistake, here are 11 useful tips for choose the right eyeglass frames :
Look at yourself in a whole mirror. Glasses are part of your figure and should go with your whole body.
Your eyebrows must not be "eaten" by the frames, they must be seen. The ideal is a shape that just highlights them a little.
Also pay attention to your eyelashes:choose glasses that do not curl them because the lenses touch them.
Try several pairs. If your nose seems too long, try low-bridged, rather dark frames. This trick gives the impression of a shorter nose.
Aesthetically, as practically, absolutely banish any frame that would land on your cheekbones. It's ugly and impractical.
Try several colors, and you will quickly understand:colored glasses enhance a complexion that is a little too pale.
If your first wrinkles are there, a light-colored frame softens them. On the contrary, dark frames harden the features. On the other hand, they can affirm a personality that is a little too erased.
If you feel like your face is a little "sagging", choose butterfly-shaped frames, which pull the features up the face.
If you think your forehead is a little too short, you can rectify that by choosing glasses with thin frames and a single color. Thicker frames make the tops of faces even heavier.
The harmony between the hair and the glasses is important. You need a contrast. If your hairstyle is most often a tight bun or a very pulled-in ponytail, do not take glasses with strict frames. Here, fantasy is welcome so as not to appear too severe.
Conversely, classic-looking frames can soften more eccentric hairstyles.
Do you wear bangs? In this case, forget the glasses that are too big and reach the level of your bangs.
Ladies, be careful:adapt your make-up to your eyesight and your glasses. Let me explain:
- If you are myopic, your eyes look smaller behind your concave lenses. A white pencil line inside can rectify this. You can also make them bigger with clear or iridescent eye shadow on the outer side and a touch of mascara.
- If you are farsighted, it's the opposite. You have one eye that looks bigger. Reduce this effect with a line of black kohl inside the eye, or an eyeliner. The touch of eyeshadow should be darker, matte and flush with the lashes.
