The round glass shape was the first to appear on the market since the beginning of the nineteenth century. These glasses, called Windsor glasses, have been around since the 1800s. John Lennon popularized it further in the 1960s. In recent times, the Koreans have picked up this trend as well.

1. Round glasses for square faces

Some of the features of a square face are a strong, angular jaw and a clean, straight line from the forehead to the jaw. For this reason, round glasses will soften the jawline and complement the width and length of your face, especially the straight lines. Round glasses with thinner frames can improve the overall balance of your face even more.

Simply put, round glasses contrast angular features very well. There are several options to choose from, and it will also depend on the size of your face and how angular your race is.

2. Round glasses for oval faces

An oval face may have round curves as well, but it is different enough from round glasses. It is, therefore, possible for you to wear them. An oval face also has overall prominent features. By choosing round glasses, you can enhance those features. This will give your oblong face an overall pleasing appearance.

It will depend on the frame as well. For example, you may benefit from choosing either a dark frame, a transparent frame, a metal frame, or a black frame. These choices will depend on your skin tone and the size of your face. Have a look at our Cyril eyeglasses.

3. Round glasses for a heart shaped face

Round glasses will be perfect for your heart shaped face. The heart shaped face has a wider forehead, wider cheekbones, and a narrower jawline. The shape creates a pointiness toward the chin. By choosing round glasses, you can soften this angular characteristic. Additionally, they can draw attention from your chin or forehead to your eyes and cheekbones.

The important thing here is to choose round glasses that are not too small. To achieve the best visual appearance, select a size that perfectly fits the size and shape of your face. Have a look at our Laverne eyeglasses for both men and women.

An oblong face is an elongated face that is well balanced. That means that any frame that is too narrow will extend this elongation even more. It is possible for this face shape to wear round glasses as long as they are not excessively round or oversized.

Maintaining the inherent symmetry of your oblong face is the primary objective of wearing round spectacles. You should pick a frame that will highlight your oblong face's symmetry. In doing so, you will also greatly improve the visual appearance of your face.
