💎 Frame Guide for Diamond-Shaped Faces | Brady Opticians

Diamond-shaped faces are unique and striking – just like the gem! The right glasses will highlight your best features and create visual balance.

🔷 Characteristics of a Diamond-Shaped Face:

Narrow forehead and jawline

High, defined cheekbones

Face length slightly longer than width

Angular features

Your goal is to soften the angles and draw attention to your eyes while widening the forehead and jawline just a touch.

👓 Top Frame Styles for Diamond-Shaped Faces:

✨ Oval or Round Frames – Soften strong cheekbones and balance angular features.
✨ Top-Heavy or Cat-Eye Frames – Add width to a narrower forehead while complementing cheekbones.
✨ Rimless or Semi-Rimless Frames – Let your natural beauty shine with minimal interference.
✨ Frames with Decorative Tops – These lift attention to your eyes and add balance to your facial shape.

🚫 Frames to Avoid:
Narrow or boxy frames can exaggerate width at the cheekbones and make your features appear overly sharp.

💎At Brady Opticians, we’ll help you find frames that bring out your natural brilliance.

Frame Guide for Heart-Shaped Faces | Brady Opticians

Your heart-shaped face is full of charm and character – and the right eyewear can bring beautiful balance to your natural features.

🔷 Characteristics of a Heart-Shaped Face:

Broad forehead

High cheekbones

Narrow, sometimes pointed chin

Face tapers from top to bottom

The goal? Soften the upper face and add width to the lower portion for a well-balanced look.

👓 Top Frame Styles for Heart-Shaped Faces:

✨ Bottom-Heavy or Wider-Lower Frames – Balance a narrow chin by drawing the eye downward.
✨ Oval or Rounded Frames – Soften a broader forehead and bring harmony to your features.
✨ Light-Coloured or Rimless Styles – These minimize bulk and keep your look airy and open.
✨ Subtle Cat-Eye Frames – Flatter high cheekbones without exaggerating forehead width.

🚫 Frames to Avoid:
Heavy top frames or styles with lots of embellishment at the brow can make the forehead appear even wider.

💬 Ready to find the frames that flatter your heart? Come see us at Brady Opticians – we’ll help you fall in love with your look.

If you’ve been told you have an oval face, consider yourself lucky – this face shape is known for its versatility when it comes to eyewear. At Brady Opticians, we’re here to help you make the most of it.

Characteristics: Balanced proportions with slightly narrower jaw than forehead and high cheekbones.

Frame Recommendations:

• Anything Goes: Lucky you! Oval faces work well with most frames.
• Wide frames: Highlight the naturally balanced proportions
• Avoid: Frames that are overly large, as they could overshadow your features.

🕶️ Whether you’re going for classic, trendy, or professional, Brady Opticians has a wide selection of frames to fit your oval face perfectly. Pop in today – our team will guide you through the best styles just for you.
