With holiday season around the corner, there’s no better time to update your sunglass collection.
Whether you're heading to the beach, the bush, or just enjoying a sunny staycation, having the right pair of sunglasses to boost your holiday confidence is essential.
Here, Wesley Language from Execuspecs provides six tips to help you choose the perfect pair:
UV protection in sunglasses is essential as it safeguards your eyes from harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted by the sun. By wearing sunglasses with proper UV protection, you help preserve your long-term eye health and maintain clear vision.
Finding sunglasses that complement your face shape will enhance your overall look. For example:
Round faces: Rectangular or square frames add angles and structure.
Square faces: Rounded or oval frames soften sharp features.
Oval faces: Most shapes work well but avoid frames that are too large.
Heart-shaped faces: Cat-eye or aviator styles balance wider foreheads and narrower chins.
Lens colour isn't just about aesthetics; it also affects visibility and comfort. Here are some options:
Gray lenses: Reduce overall brightness without distorting colours.
Brown lenses: Enhance contrast and depth perception.
Green lenses: Provide good colour balance and reduce glare.
Yellow or amber lenses: Improve visibility in low-light conditions.
Polarised lenses are great for reducing glare from reflective surfaces like water and glass. They're ideal for outdoor activities such as driving and fishing.
Ensure your sunglasses are durable and comfortable. Heavy or oversized frames can cause headaches so make sure you look for frames made from materials like acetate, metal, or polycarbonate.
Try them on to make sure they fit well and don't pinch your nose or temples. Adjustable nose pads can enhance comfort for long term use.
A high-quality pair of sunglasses can pay off in the long run. Quality sunglasses not only provide better protection and durability but also often come with better design and comfort.
