You’re standing at your mirror, holding a pair of glasses in your hand. They’re the perfect color. The lenses are just right. But something feels... off. You try to convince yourself they’ll grow on you. They don’t. And eventually, they end up in a drawer.
We’ve all been there—because finding the right pair of glasses isn’t just about magnification strength or style preference. It’s about shape, specifically, how the frame shape complements the shape of your face.
At CliC, we’ve made it easy to find your fit. When you search our site, you’ll see three core frame shapes to choose from:
But how do you know which one flatters your features best? That starts with knowing your face shape.
Let’s Face It—Shape Matters
Believe it or not, your face shape plays a major role in which glasses look best on you—but most people aren’t entirely sure what their face shape is. In fact, studies show that only about 30% of people correctly identify their face shape without guidance. That’s because the differences can be subtle—especially when a few shapes share similar proportions.
Most faces generally fall into one of six categories: oval, round, square, heart, diamond, or long. Each has its own beautiful balance of features—forehead width, cheekbone structure, jawline strength, and face length—all of which can be highlighted or softened depending on the frame you choose.
Not sure which category you fall into?
Stand in front of a mirror and trace the outline of your face with a washable marker or your finger. You’ll start to see which general shape matches your reflection. Here’s a quick guide:
Oval – Balanced proportions with a slightly curved jawline and forehead that’s just a bit wider than the chin
Round – Equal width and length with soft angles and full cheeks
Square – Broad forehead and strong jawline with minimal curve
Heart – Wider at the forehead, tapering to a narrower chin
Diamond – Narrow forehead and jawline with high, broad cheekbones
Long – Longer than it is wide with straight sides
Helping Your Face and Frames CliC Into Place
Now that you have a better sense of your face shape, here’s how each of CliC’s core frame shapes can enhance your natural features:
Rectangle Frames
Best for: Round, Oval, and Heart-shaped faces
Why it works: The structured, angular design adds definition and contrast to softer curves, giving your face a more balanced look.
Try styles like the Original or Nashi for that sharp, flattering fit.
Square Frames
Best for: Oval, Long, and Round faces
Why it works: Square frames offer bold lines that give shape to rounder faces or add structure to longer face shapes.
Consider the Finn or Manhattan styles for a crisp, confident look.
Round Frames
Best for: Square and Diamond-shaped faces
Why it works: The curves of round frames soften angular features and bring gentle balance to strong cheekbones or jawlines.
