There <em>are<\/em> no \u201cbest\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stage.warby.io\/sunglasses\">sunglasses<\/a> for your face shape\u2014whether oval or otherwise. If you need a moment to let that sink in, we understand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it\u2019s true: There\u2019s no magic formula for pairing certain <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stage.warby.io\/learn\/types-of-sunglasses\">styles of sunglasses<\/a> with certain face shapes. People (and sunglasses, for that matter) are too unique, and style is totally subjective. That\u2019s good news, though. It means that you don\u2019t have to limit yourself in your search for your new favorite frames.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that said, if there are particular characteristics of your oval face you\u2019d like to accentuate or contrast, your sunglasses frames can help do that. We\u2019ve put together a handy guide so that you can familiarize yourself with some popular sunglasses for oval faces and get an idea of how those frame styles may complement certain facial features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">First Things First: Do You Have an Oval Face Shape?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Oval faces are common, and it\u2019s a face shape that can be relatively easy to identify. But if you\u2019ve never given much thought to your face shape, you might not know where to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look in a mirror, or pull up a selfie on your phone to reference. (A selfie is nice because you can draw on it if that helps you.) If you have long hair, it\u2019s best to have it pulled away from the sides of your face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An oval face will have some, but not necessarily <em>all<\/em>, of the following traits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It\u2019s longer than it is wide (about twice as long)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It narrows a bit at the chin and forehead<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Its full length is about even in width<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It has a rounded chin and jawline<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Some oval faces might have cheekbones slightly wider than the forehead and jawline, but just by a smidge. If your cheekbones are noticeably the widest point of your face, then you might actually have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stage.warby.io\/learn\/diamond-face-shape-sunglasses\">diamond face shape<\/a>. Diamond faces are similar to oval faces but tend to have wider cheekbones and more pointed or angular features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bear in mind that most people don\u2019t meet <em>all<\/em> the criteria for a single face shape. That\u2019s why you should never limit your sunglasses options based on face shape alone. You\u2019re not just an oval face\u2014you\u2019re uniquely you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div><!-- .entry-content (split for inline block) -->\n\n<section class=\"wp-blocks__banner has-img white\">\n\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stage.warby.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/glasses-shopping-app-cta.jpg\" alt=\"Frame shopping, made smarter\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-blocks__banner-img\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Frame shopping, made smarter<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<p>No guesswork needed&#8211;try on frames virtually and find your perfect pair.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-blocks-banner__cta-links\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stage.warby.io\/app\">Get started <svg id=\"aa495747-7767-4ea8-bc8e-3e09f9e2a480\" data-name=\"Layer 1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 5.5 9.5\"><path d=\"M5.49,4.61a.87.87,0,0,1,0,.32.73.73,0,0,1-.2.35l-4,4A.75.75,0,0,1,.22,8.22L3.69,4.75.22,1.28A.75.75,0,0,1,1.28.22l4,4A.75.75,0,0,1,5.49,4.61Z\" style=\"fill:#1050D0;fill-rule:evenodd\"\/><\/svg>\n<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<div class=\"entry-content\"><!-- (reopen for inline block) -->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Best Sunglasses for Oval Face Shapes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember: Absolutely <em>any<\/em> style of sunglasses can be the right pair for you.
