Which glasses suit a heart-shaped face?
A heart-shaped face is wide at the forehead and cheekbones, then narrows to a pointed chin. The point is to balance the top and the bottom.
How to recognise this face
- The forehead is the widest part of the face.
- The cheekbones are prominent.
- The chin is narrow, sometimes pointed.
- The hairline may form a central point.
Goal: Lighten the upper face and give the lower half a little presence.

Shapes to avoid
- BrowlineEmphasises the brow line and adds character without heaviness.
- Cat-eyeLifts the cheekbones and opens the gaze upwards.
These shapes remain wearable: they simply deserve a careful try-on in store.

Frequently asked
- Can you wear a browline with a heart face?
- Yes, but the top bar draws the eye to an already wide forehead. A thin, dark version stays balanced.
- Should large frames be avoided?
- It's not size that counts but distribution: a wide frame that stays light on top works very well.
