Determine your face shape in three steps.

You generally choose a new pair of spectacles based on your own taste. However, certain spectacle shapes suit some faces better. Find out here how you can determine your face shape.

Determine your face shape and find out which spectacles suit you best.

Stand in front of a mirror and take the hair away from your face in order to be able to clearly detect your contours. Hold your head upright and look directly in front.

Examine your face length exactly from the hairline to the nose as far as the point of the chin. Which shape best describes your face?

To help determine the shape of your face divide your face into three areas, as well as in the graphic: From the hairline to the eyebrows, from the brow to the tip of the nose and from the nasal tip to the edge of the chin.
