The Best Glasses for Oval Faces — And How to Find the Pair That Feels Like You
Eyexpert Optical Brampton – Face Shape Series
Ever feel like glasses shopping is more confusing than it should be?
You walk in, look around, and suddenly you’re holding five different pairs that all “kind of” work… but none that feel right.
If that sounds familiar — you’re not alone. And if you have an oval-shaped face, you’re in luck. You’ve got one of the most versatile face shapes when it comes to eyewear.
But here’s the thing no one tells you: just because you can wear any frame doesn’t mean you should settle for just any frame.
What Exactly Is an Oval Face?
If you’re not quite sure whether you have an oval face, here’s a simple way to tell:
Your face is slightly longer than it is wide
Your cheekbones are the widest part
Your jawline and forehead are softly rounded
Sound like you? Then congratulations — you’ve got the face shape that opticians dream of working with.
So... What Glasses Look Best on an Oval Face?
Here’s the honest answer: it depends on you.
At EyeXpert Optical in Brampton, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all advice. Sure, oval faces are flexible, but your eyewear should reflect who you are — your personality, your lifestyle, your comfort zone (or how far you’re willing to step out of it).
Here’s what really works — with a little insight into what each style says about you.
🕶️ Oversized Frames — For the Bold, the Stylish, the Seen
Big frames on a balanced face? It's effortless and dramatic in the best way.
These are for the people who aren’t afraid to make a statement — who want their glasses to be the first thing people notice (in a good way).
Try this if you:
Want to look fashion-forward without overthinking
Love vintage vibes or streetwear flair
Want frames that double as accessories
Pro Tip: Oversized clear frames or thick black rectangles look incredible on oval faces.
🔷 Geometric Shapes — For the Creatives & Quiet Rebels
Hexagonal, angular, or subtly quirky — these shapes add a bit of edge to your naturally soft features.
They don’t scream for attention, but they definitely don’t blend in either.
Try this if you:
Want something modern and different
Appreciate subtle design details
Don’t mind when people ask, “Where did you get those?”
🖤 Color & Texture — For the Curious and Confident
Oval faces can handle almost any palette — and that opens the door to some seriously fun styles.
We’re talking about deep blues, forest greens, marbled tortoiseshell, even matte textures or layered acetates.
Try this if you:
Are bored with basic
Like matching your glasses to your outfits
Are ready to try something new — but not too wild
👔 Classic Styles — But Upgraded for 2025
Yes, you can wear wayfarers or aviators. But that doesn’t mean you have to wear your dad’s version of them.
Today’s classics come in lightweight metals, translucent plastics, and colors you’ve never seen on the wall before.
Try this if you:
Want timeless with a twist
Care more about quality than trends
Want glasses that look good on Monday and Saturday
Here’s the Real Secret: It’s Not Just About Face Shape
Your glasses aren’t just something you wear on your face — they’re how you see the world, and how the world sees you.
That’s why at EyeXpert Optical, we look at more than just cheekbones and jawlines.
We ask questions like:
What do you do every day?
What’s your personal style?
How do you want to feel when you wear your glasses?
And then we help you find a pair that checks every box.
