Glasses for Diamond Faces
People with diamond face shapes look great in a lot of frames! Your beautiful facial angles go well with various styles. However, knowing what frames look best will help narrow your choices.
This guide will provide insights on what styles suit your diamond face to feel more confident.
Identifying a Diamond Face
A diamond face shape is rare, so if you think you have one, you’re one of a kind! Diamond and oval face shapes are similar in length, but the former has more angular features and a pointier chin. Standing in front of a mirror and checking the following can help determine if you have this face shape.
- A narrow forehead
- High cheekbones
- Small, tapered chin
- Your jawline and forehead are almost the same width
- Your cheekbones are the widest point
- You have strong, angular lines
Best Eyeglasses Shapes
A top contender for a diamond face shape is any frame that softens and balances the sharp features. Those with curves and soft angles are go-to’s that perfectly complement this shape. Take note of everything your eyes will love below.
Round
Round or oval frames work best for a diamond face shape as they soften sharp features. Their smooth corners will create an impression of softer features, allowing a more balanced visual.
Rectangle
Surprise, surprise! Although this shape is not as rounded, the tapered lines go so well with a diamond face shape. Hard angles and gentle curves play well, resulting in pleasant features.
Semi-Rimless
As this shape is top-heavy, it draws the eye downward. Additionally, it blends perfectly with your prominent cheekbones and tapered chin. So, opt for this shape if you also want to accentuate those features.
Best Sunglasses Shapes
Choosing the right pair includes considering your face shape to know what looks best on you. Depending on the style you choose, you can highlight prominent features or make them seem softer.
Round
Finding the perfect balance ends in a beautiful result. Adding curves to complement the striking features of a diamond face shape gives a contrast that will make heads turn.
Cat-Eye
This shape’s signature subtle corners and browlines play nicely with a diamond’s angular features. It will accentuate your striking cheekbones and contrast your tapered chin.
Rectangle
Opt for this frame shape if you want to play with your prominent and strong characteristics. A rectangle frame’s right angles help offset your facial contours, and a heavy browline brings more focus to the top of your face.
