ROUND FACE
Face doppelganger: Leonardo Dicaprio
The round face features a circular shape, without angles or squared lines. The distance between the temples is well-balanced.
What To Choose
Furlan suggests opting for shapes that bring volume to the lower part of the cheekbones, and frames that have well defined shapes and lines, such as squares.
What To Avoid
Don't mix round with round, and steer clear of large frames, and shapes that are too round.
The Pick
OVAL FACE
Face doppelganger: Jake Gyllenhaal
The oval face is defined by soft, well-balanced features, and the chin is narrower than the forehead. Cheekbones are typically high on an oval faced bloke.
What To Choose
If you have an oval face, consider yourself genetically (or at least facially) blessed. According to Furlan, you can opt for any shaped frames, as long as they're proportional to the dimensions of the face.
The Pick
HEART FACE
Face doppelganger: Ryan Reynolds
The heart-shaped face features a wider forehead, accentuated cheekbones and narrow chin.
What To Choose
If this is your shape, you'll want to head right to shapes that narrow the forehead. This can be achieved by picking rimless glasses in general. Light colours and frames will also assist in drawing attention downwards.
What To Avoid
Avoid shapes that call attention towards the upper part of the face, and frames that are overly wide at the bottom.
The Pick
SQUARE FACE
Face doppelganger: Henry Cavill
This type of face is known for its decisive, square shape both vertically and horizontally. The length and width of the face are generally equal.
What To Choose
Our expert recommends softly curved shapes, lower frame fronts, and upward-angled shapes.
What To Avoid
For the square-faced among us, Furlan suggests steering clear of eyewear that mirrors your face shape. That is, avoid squares, strong geometrical shapes, and eyewear that is flat on the bottom.
