Updated: 4/3/2023 | Best Sunglasses for Asian Faces
Believe it or not, not all sunglasses are made equal.
I am severely disappointed when I buy some cute frames only to find out afterward that they fall off my face or make dents in my cheeks from prolonged wear…all because I have an Asian face.
When it comes to sunglasses and eyewear, common problems for Asian faces may include:
- Sliding down the bridge of your nose.
- Regularly hits your cheeks.
- May make indents from prolonged wear.
- Frames shift up and down when you make any facial movement such as smiling or laughing.
- Lenses touch your eyelashes and can ruin your makeup.
- Frames fall off your face while bending over. This has happened to me countless times.
Features to be aware of when choosing the right frames for Asian faces:
- High cheekbones
- A broad or wide face
- Flatter face
- A low and sloping nose bridge
- Smaller faces
Now that we know what to look for, let’s explore some popular eyewear brands made to fit Asian faces.
