Wearing glasses can completely transform your look.

Some people love this about glasses, and others, well, not so much.

Whether you have residual insecurities from wearing glasses as a kid or just don’t like the way they look on your face, your struggle is normal and understandable.

However, if you want to give your frames a fighting chance, then stick around.

Here, we’re going to discuss how to feel more confident wearing glasses.

Who knows—maybe you’re just a blog away from completely transforming your style and looking better than ever before!

Find the Best Frames for Your Face and Style

If you don’t like the way your glasses look, odds are that they’re not the right design for you.

But with literally thousands of frame options on the market, how do you know what will look best with your face shape and style?

Start by identifying your face shape, whether it’s round, square, oval, or heart-shaped. Generally, angular frames are better for rounder faces because they add definition. Likewise, rounder frames are better for sharper faces because they soften features.

Additionally, consider the colors and patterns in your wardrobe. You want to select frames that match your style and will make you feel put-together and self-assured.For instance, if you’re currently wearing bright-colored frames but have an earthy-colored palette, no wonder you don’t love the look! 

If you’re unsure how to make a good match, consider frame styles that look good on almost everyone. For example, tortoiseshell glasses are popular for many reasons, one of which is their color scheme is interesting but universally complementary.

Get a Complementary Hairstyle

It might be your hairstyle making your glasses look odd on your face. If you have bold or oversized frames, a sleek ponytail or bun can balance the boldness. Likewise, letting your hair down softens angular frames.

This can be a tricky decision to make, so consult with a hairstylist for customized advice on getting your glasses and hairstyle to harmonize beautifully.

Wear Makeup To Emphasize Your Eyes

Are your glasses taking too much away from or overpowering your facial features? You can fix this by accentuating your eyes with makeup.

Use eyeliner to define your eyes. Choose a mascara that lengthens and volumizes your lashes. Experiment with bold eyeshadows. Use foundation, concealer, and color correctors to offset the shadows that glasses might cast around your eyes.

Play around until you find a makeup style that works for you and puts the spotlight back on your eyes, not your frames.

Just Flaunt Them!

You can do all the external tweaking you want, but confidence truly begins from within! Feel empowered by your choice to wear glasses and flaunt them with pride.

Yes, this is easier said than done. However, if there are people out there wearing plastic lenses just because they want the look of glasses (there are), then you’re lucky enough to need them.

Glasses can accessorize and enhance your style, so wear them confidently because you should.

Use these tips, and you’ll soon feel more confident wearing glasses. Remember that it’s a process and that you’re not obligated to love your frames by the end of it.

However, we encourage you to give your glasses a fair shot at accentuating your style while they improve your vision.

Celebrate your unique look and make it an integral part of your fashion identity!
