These Are The Best Glasses Frames That Look Super Flattering On Heart-Shaped Faces
May 7, 2018 by Lisa Cupido
For decades women and men have been standing in front of mirrors, outlining the shape of their faces in black marker, and then scrutinizing the results from all angles–“Is my face shape oval? Diamond? What about a heart?”
For many people with heart-shaped faces, your distinctive features help you answer that question a bit sooner.
Heart-shaped faces are defined by their smaller chins, wider foreheads, and equally as wide cheekbones. Your cheekbones may also be wider than your forehead and you may or may not have a widow’s peak and a pointy chin. Celebrities who share your gorgeous heart-shaped face include Dakota Johnson, Reese Witherspoon, Kerry Washington, Eva Longoria, and Halle Berry.

When choosing eyeglass frames that suit any face shape, from heart shape to oblong, the goal is to provide balance to the face. Not that there’s anything less than sweet about a smaller chin and wider cheekbones, but glasses that look the best on you are those that provide the illusion of a broader chin.
“When choosing glasses for heart-shaped faces, the goal should be to minimize the width of the top of the face and to broaden the appearance of the chin,” suggest experts at Frames Direct. “Look for frames that are wider than your forehead, or have prominent endpoints (like Clubmaster or cat-eye shapes ). You can also soften your look by choosing frames in light colors or with detailing like a tortoise or floral pattern. Heart shaped faces are quite versatile, so many different styles will suit you.”
Your options may be a lot broader than other face shapes, but to make things a bit easier, here are six of the best glasses frames for heart-shaped faces.
