HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT SUNGLASSES?

Gas sunglasses are found in a wide variety of colors, designs, sizes and shapes. If you choose the right one, there will be no stopping you! It is easier than it seems, and here we explain it to you in detail.

GLASSES ACCORDING TO YOUR HAIR AND SKIN COLOR

  • Dark hair (brown/black): If your hair is dark in color, it is best to choose metal, dark brown or black glasses to help bring out the qualities in your face. Avoid any pastel color, and instead choose earth tones, dark green, burgundy and even metallic colors.
  • Blonde/Light Brown Hair: First you must identify if your tone is cold or warm. If your blonde is cold, platinum or ash, use dark brown, gray and pastel colors. If you are more of a warm blonde, opt for light brown, bronze or honey, dark green, orange and gold. Although dark colors are a style statement, they can look very harsh on this hair color.
  • Grey Hair: By losing their natural color, people with hair that has turned gray or white have the great advantage of choosing glasses from a wide variety of frame colors, although glasses with clear lenses will always look better. They can choose frames with intense colors like sea blue or burgundy, as well as neutral colors like black, white and grey. The colors that look least good on people with this hair color are browns, golds, and other warm colors.
  • Fair skin: If you are fair-skinned, we recommend the colors blue, black, red and pink to highlight your features. They are an excellent option and will undoubtedly look great on you.
  • Brown skin: Choosing colors like yellow, khaki, dark blue, bright red or orange tones will make you look great. For this type of skin, bright colors are the best option.

GLASSES ACCORDING TO LENS COLOR

It is very important to take into account the color of the lens when choosing the correct glasses, and this will depend on our lifestyle and the activity that we are going to carry out during the day.

Why? The wide variety of colors and contrasts of the lenses have not been invented by chance. Each color serves a specific purpose that we must consider. On the other hand, the clear lens colors are the most fashionable and offer light protection (not suitable for a midday at the beach), while the dark ones are necessary for extreme light situations (not suitable for driving). See the difference?

Sunglasses lovers know that they are the perfect accessory to bring out our personality and at the same time help us enjoy the day protected and comfortable. So the next time you choose your glasses, think about the color and visual contrast suits you better! Here we explain how each of them works.

  • Dark gray glasses: They will help you better recognize the true colors in your environment! In addition, they will reduce the maximum amount of light, ideal to accompany you on very sunny days. They are recommended for general use in any type of activity, since they adapt very well to different climatic conditions.
  • Light gray glasses: If your glasses have gray lenses you will be able to recognize and appreciate the color contrast in the objects around you, because they help reduce eye fatigue. They are ideal for cloudy days in which there may be some annoying light intensity.
  • Dark brown glasses: Glasses with dark brown lenses guarantee excellent contrast, depth and visual acuity. In addition, they help reduce visual fatigue that can be caused by excess light. They are highly recommended for use in outdoor activities and sports, especially those that require appreciation of distance, for example sport fishing or golf.
  • Light brown glasses: Being a lighter version of dark brown, they create a pleasant sensation without excessively altering the perception of colors. They are ideal for enjoying partly sunny days, so it will not be a problem to use them in the shade or indoors.
  • Blue glasses: you can use it on cloudy days and sunny days too. You will have a colder view of the panorama since your environment will have that bluish tone. They are the best option to counteract excess yellow or warm light, and thus reduce eye fatigue that occurs from this type of lighting.
  • Green glasses: They adapt excellently to different light conditions. They create a slight contrast that allows colors to be observed uniformly, adding a warmer perception of the environment. They help a lot to eliminate glare and are recommended for practicing winter and water sports, as well as forest and mountain sports.

GLASSES ACCORDING TO THE SHAPE OF YOUR FACE.

To guarantee protection and style, do not forget that your sunglasses must be perfectly adapted to the face, so the frame must be centered and close. Therefore, it will be very useful to take into account the shape of your face the next time you buy sunglasses.

  • Round face: it is a type of face that rejuvenates the person who wears it, making them appear younger than they are. In addition to having a rounded outline, the features that accompany him are also usually round and a bit thick. For all these reasons, it is recommended to visually lengthen the face and add refinement to the features with frames with straight, square or rectangular lines that fit the width of the face.
  • Oval face: In principle, any type of frame works for people with an oval face because their characteristics adapt very well to different sizes and shapes. This type of face is very harmonious and symmetrical, because what the glasses will suit very well. Just keep in mind the appropriate size so as not to create disproportion. Subtle and geometric designs will be the most ideal to maintain balance on this type of face and look excellent.
  • Square Face: People with this type of face have long foreheads and jaws that together resemble a square shape. Round, oval or curved glasses models work very well to soften the features of the face and maintain that aesthetic balance that we so desire.
  • Long face: Also known as a “rectangular” face. It is characterized by the elongation of the facial features and a contour comparable to that of a rounded rectangle at the edges. This type of face has prominent cheekbones, temples and jaw that go very well with square, large, horizontal and straight frames that give that balance that we all want to achieve.
  • Triangular Face: Triangular or “heart” faces often have high cheekbones and elongated chins that give them that inverted triangle shape. For this type of face, round, striking and thick frames that exceed the width of the temples are recommended, preventing them from perching on the cheeks.
