  1. Oval Face:
    • An oval face shape is longer than it is wide, with balanced proportions and softly rounded features.
  2. Round Face:
    • A round face shape is characterized by equal width and length, with full cheeks and a rounded chin.
  3. Square Face:
    • A square face shape features a broad forehead, strong jawline, and straight sides.
  4. Heart Face:
    • A heart-shaped face has a wide forehead and cheekbones with a narrow chin.
  5. Diamond Face:
    • A diamond face shape is characterized by narrow forehead and jawline with wide cheekbones.
  6. Oblong (Rectangular) Face:
    • An oblong or rectangular face shape is longer than it is wide, with a straight cheek line and sometimes a long chin.
  7. Triangular Face:
    • A triangular face shape has a narrow forehead and widens at the cheeks and chin.

Each face shape has its own unique characteristics, and certain frame styles are more flattering for each shape. By identifying your face shape, you can choose eyeglass frames that complement your features and enhance your overall appearance.
