Updated January 2026: We’ve updated this guide to include Revant’s new line of sunglasses — built better from the lenses out, with frames designed to fit real faces and real days outside.
Faces come in all shapes and sizes, and so do sunglasses. The key to finding a pair of sunglasses that fits right and looks great on you is all about matching frame shape with face shape. If this sounds like agony to you, don’t sweat it. Whether you have an oval face, round face, or something in-between, we’re here to help you find the best glasses and frame shape for your face.
4 Common Face Shapes
Here’s a helpful primer for starters: There are four general face shapes, and for each of these shapes, there are common traits.
Best Sunglasses for Square Face Shapes
Square faces tend to have strong jawlines and sharp angles, so the goal is balance. Rounded or softly curved frames help smooth out those features and keep everything looking proportional.
Our top pick: Revant Durata sunglasses are a great match for square faces thanks to their rounded profile and easygoing shape, which softens sharper lines without feeling oversized or flashy.
Another strong option is Revant Vayda sunglasses, which offer a similar rounded silhouette with a slightly more modern feel — ideal if you want something versatile enough for everyday wear.
For other brands, frames that work well for square faces include rounded styles like the: Oakley Latch, Ray-Ban Aviator Classic, and Ray-Ban Clubmaster.
Best Sunglasses for Oval Face Shapes
Oval faces are the most versatile when it comes to sunglasses. With balanced proportions from forehead to chin, most frame shapes work — making this face shape a great place to have fun with style.
Our top pick: Revant Vayda sunglasses are an easy win for oval faces. Their balanced shape complements natural facial symmetry and works just as well dressed up as it does on a trail or road trip.
If you prefer something slightly bolder, Revant Durata sunglasses are another solid option, offering a timeless silhouette that doesn’t overpower your features.
Outside of Revant, oval faces also pair well with classics like the: Oakley Holbrook, and Oakley Frogskins.
Best Sunglasses for Round Face Shapes
Round faces typically have softer curves and similar width and height, so angular frames help add definition and visual contrast.
Our top pick: The Revant Tembor sunglasses are an excellent choice for round faces. Their squared shape creates sharper lines that help elongate the face and add structure where it’s needed most.
If you’re browsing beyond Revant, look for rectangular frames with boxier silhouettes like the: Ray-Ban New Wayfarer, or Maui Jim Red Sands.
Best Sunglasses for Heart Face Shapes
Heart-shaped faces are usually wider at the forehead and narrower at the chin. Frames that add visual weight lower on the face, especially slightly oversized styles, help balance those proportions.
Our top pick: Revant Caster sunglasses are a natural fit for heart-shaped faces. Their oversized design helps offset a wider forehead while making a confident style statement that still feels practical and wearable.
For other brands, heart-shaped faces often pair well with aviator-style frames or rounded designs, such as the: Ray-Ban Aviator, or Maui Jim Wiki Wiki.
