How do I classify my face shape and what kind of glasses should I wear?

Methods that rely solely on face shape to choose glasses are not very practical. Otherwise, this question wouldn't have arisen.

Among people with the same face shape, everyone has different positions and shapes of facial features, different skin colors and hair, and different elements such as clothing and occupations. So the corresponding glasses can't be the same.

I like a certain internet celebrity's glasses. Should I buy them?

Buy them. Liking something is the best reason to spend money. Whether they suit you or not is another matter.

I've read a lot of articles, but I still don't know how to choose glasses for myself.

It's because you haven't spent enough time. Look more, observe more, and compare more. Only in this way can you gradually establish your own aesthetic standards.

It's impossible to expect to learn how to choose glasses just by spending a few hours reading a few articles.

Do most people look uglier when wearing glasses?

No. You've also seen many people wearing non-prescription glasses.

What characteristics do versatile glasses have?

Versatile glasses are required to have no distinct features and not be too noticeable.

Many glasses are nice-looking, but they are a bit heavy. How should I choose?

Leather shoes/high heels are just not as comfortable as sports shoes. It depends on what you pursue! Besides, buying high heels and sports shoes doesn't conflict with each other.

I didn't see the differences you mentioned in the examples you gave？

Glasses are small accessories, and the differences lie in the details. In our eyes, there are dozens of types of round glasses alone. Compare and analyze the differences more, and you'll soon make obvious progress.

Supplement: Several Modification Methods Based on "Looking Good"

Making the face look slimmer.

Making the face look longer and making it look slimmer are similar in meaning, both of which are about modifying the length-width ratio of the face.

If you have an oval face (V-shaped outer contour line) or there are clear V-shaped lines on your face, then using the outer edge of the glasses to repeat this V shape will have an obvious slimming effect.

If your face shape is on the short side, then using a heavier line (such as an eyebrow-line frame) to cut across the position of the golden section will have an obvious effect of making the face look longer.

Raising the position of the bridge of the nose and appropriately lengthening the proportion of the middle part of the face will have an obvious effect of making the face look longer.

Modifying the shape of eyebrows, including downward-slanting eyebrows.

If your eyebrows are nice-looking, use the upper edge of the frame to repeat them and emphasize them;
If your eyebrows are not nice-looking, such as downward-slanting eyebrows, use a curved upper edge to connect with the eyebrows at the position of the first one-third of the eyebrows, and use the line of the upper edge of the glasses to replace the shape behind the eyebrows;

If your eyebrow color is light and the eyebrows are thin, choose a frame with a thick upper edge, which can make the eyebrows look darker.

Making the bridge of the nose look straighter, narrower, or making the nose tip smaller.

If the nose tip is relatively wide, then the angle of the bridge of the nose should be a bit wider to look good and make the nose tip look smaller;

If the bridge of the nose is very thin, then the angle of the bridge of the nose should be kept similar to the angle of the bridge of the nose but a bit wider than the bridge of the nose. This will make the bridge of the nose look straight;

If the bridge of the nose is low/flat, then the height of the lower edge of the bridge of the nose close to the inner corner of the eye will make the bridge of the nose look nice;

If the alae of the nose are wide, you can choose plastic glasses with an integrated nose pad, and the nose pad must be low. Narrowing the angle of the bridge of the nose can immediately make the bridge of the nose look delicate and straight.

Making the eyes look nicer. Here, you must pay attention to the shape of the lenses.

If your eyes are flat, long, and narrow, try not to use flat and long lenses as much as possible, referring to the repetition theory;

If the outer corners of your eyes droop, which is a kind of triangular eyes in a sense, don't use lenses with an upturned shape, referring to the contrast theory;

If your eyes are round and full, pay attention to making the curve of the upper edge of the lenses echo the upper eyelid, and then your eyes will look nicer immediately.

Making the complexion look brighter and healthier.

The simplest method is to use colors with high purity, deep color, and high gloss, such as piano lacquer black.
If the complexion is not clean, don't use or try to use as little as possible patterned materials, such as tortoiseshell color.

Supplement 2: Five Application Methods of Lines

The effect of repetition is emphasis.

If the upper edge line of the frame repeats/parallels your eyebrows, it has the effect of emphasizing the eyebrows and will make the eyebrows look more obvious. For example, if the outline of the glasses repeats your square face, then it emphasizes your "big square face". So, we should repeat the nice lines on us and not repeat the unattractive points. You must keep this in mind.

Extension.

Lines all have an extension effect, that is, our line of sight will involuntarily extend along smooth lines. For example, flat and long glasses will make a person's face look a bit wider because we extend them to the left and right. So, those who hope that the lines of the face shape are smooth or even want a small V-shaped face effect must pay more attention to the outer edge lines of the glasses and make them extend downward and intersect to form a V shape.

Breaking.

It means deliberately inserting another line on the original unattractive lines to disrupt the original lines and thus weaken the shortcomings. For example, for downward-slanting eyebrows, you can insert the line of the upper edge of the frame in the middle position of the eyebrows to break the awkward feeling of the downward-slanting eyebrows. The treatment of high cheekbones can also use this method. The feature of high cheekbones is usually a diamond-shaped face. What we need to do is to insert a line on it, break the basic shape of the diamond, and then use the new line to replace the original line so that the high cheekbones can be well weakened.

Contrast.

This is simple. As the saying goes, there's no harm without comparison. You must pay attention to this effect. For example, for people with downward-slanting eyebrows, if you wear a frame with straight lines, it will immediately contrast with the downward-slanting eyebrows. A person with a square face wearing small round glasses will immediately make the face look like building blocks (Who said that people with square faces should wear round glasses?).

Substitution.

It means using one line to replace another line. A typical application is at the bridge of the nose. We often use the shape and line of the inner edge angle of the frame to replace the contour of our own bridge of the nose. In this way, it's easy for us to have a straight bridge of the nose.

In addition, when using lines, two points should also be noted. One is that the lines should be clear, smooth, and focused. There should be a sense of lines on our face, but there shouldn't be too many lines. The other is that lines can be divided into "straight" and "curved", mainly determined by referring to the lines on our face. If the lines on our face are straight, then choosing straight lines for the glasses is usually better in most cases. If the lines on our face are curved, then choosing curved lines for the glasses is more appropriate. Of course, lines are not just limited to straight and curved ones, just as glasses are not just limited to square and round types.
