If you have an oval face, almost any sunglasses style will suit you. Top choices include aviators, cat-eyes, square, round, rectangular, and wayfarer frames. These shapes highlight your cheekbones, balance proportions, and complement your natural symmetry.

To find your face shape, measure the length, forehead width, cheekbones, and jawline.
An oval face is longer than it is wide, with slightly narrower forehead and jawline than cheekbones, and rounded features.

Step-by-step

✅ Measurements to Determine Your Face Shape

• Measure from hairline to chin (face length).
• Measure across the widest part of your forehead.
• Measure across cheekbones under the eyes.
• Measure jawline from chin to below the ear, multiply by two.

Compare numbers: If length > width, you have an oval face. 

• Teardrop shape draws attention to cheekbones and balances forehead width.
• Perfect for both casual and formal looks.
