 When buying glasses, keep these tips when choosing and buying a pair.

1. Get the best that you can afford.  Don't be cheap when choosing and buying a pair.  If it costs a little much, it means it will last long and you'll be able to use it daily.

2. Be sure that you will choose and buy a pair that suits the shape of your face because they will not only be FUNCTIONAL but also FASHIONABLE. Big frames are good for large faces  but when worn by someone with small face, she'll definitely look like a FLY.

3. Make sure that you have the correct  lens size, your eyes should be at  the center of the lens. 

4. Glasses have to  rest comfortably and evenly on ears and align at the same level under eyebrows.

5.  Aside from considering the size of the glasses in # 2, you also have to consider the shape of the glasses that will suit your face shape.  The shape of the glasses should be one that contrasts to your face shape.  The rule of thumb is like in choosing your outfit, if it's round then don't choose a style that would further the roundness, if it is elongated, then don't choose something that would make you look longer or elongated.

For round faces, glasses with pointed or sharper frames will look good, for long face, choose round frames.  If you have squarish jaw, avoid rounded frames or square frames like this, opt for oval shapes to make your face look slimmer.
