Quality and Style Make Sunglasses a Good Investment

Almost everyone today wears sunglasses at one time or another.  You can use them to accent your casual outfits or formal wear with style and sophistication.  You can combine a good quality with an attractive pair of sunglasses to achieve your practical needs and fashion desires.

There is a wide variety of designs from which you can select a pair that will polish-off your wardrobe and make your natural beauty more noticeable.  There will be designer styles available in a myriad of vibrant colours and with varying frames for you to choose.

Sunglasses do protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and glares that can cause eye problems; make sure that the sunglasses that you select are fashionable with a practical purpose as well.

Protection for Your Eyes

Your eyes need protection on a daily basis from excessive exposure to light and harmful UV rays.  A quality pair of sunglasses improves your visual comfort and clarity by protecting them from glare which can cause eye strain and accidents as well.

Your glasses should have the proper fit for you to receive the maximum benefit from wearing them.  Make sure that they are close enough to your face to keep out stray light but far enough away so that your eyelashes won’t smear your frames.

Remember that the price you pay doesn’t mean that you are getting more UV protection. Studies show that there is no correlation between high prices and UV coverage.  You want to look good but you want good protection for your sensitive eyes.

Be a Fashion Statement

When you decide to get new sunglasses, you should think about your hair and eyebrow colour and the natural skin tones that you have; your sunglasses should flatter and complement your physical features and colouring.

Also consider the dominant colour in your wardrobe and how often you wear it.  This same colour will make a good frame colour for your sunglasses and coordinate with many of your outfits.

As a rule, dark skin tones look better with darker frames or those that carry bright colours; pale skin and lighter coloured hair looks better with light-coloured or tortoise frames.  You should try them on to see which accent matches your features the best.

Be True to Your Personality

Sunglasses say a lot about your style, who you are, and what your personality is like; the eyewear that you select should be consistent with the fashion statement that you want to make.

If you’re a bold person, choose bold, dynamic frames; if you’re shy and quiet, pick frames that help you to be one of the crowed without drawing attention to yourself.

When buying sunglasses, it’s a good idea to take along a friend who knows you well and who will give you an honest opinion about how your sunglasses look on you.

You should seek a balance between the shape of your face and the shape of the frames that you choose; a good friend can see how they achieve this balance.  You want to make sure that your selection will be one with which you are pleased.

Final Note

Buying sunglasses can complement your style or change your look altogether; the choice is up to you.  You should select a quality pair of sunglasses that protects your eyes and gives you a stylish, dynamic look.

While it’s quite common for oily skins to have a tendency towards open pores, an attack of pimples also leaves ugly scars and open pores behind.  Even though the scars may fade away after some time, open pores appear to be more obstinate and hardly show any signs of shrinking.  Age also takes its toll by giving an uneven/pigmented tone to the skin and making the open pores more prominent. Heredity could also be a contributing factor in determining your pore size. It’s not easy to get rid of these pores or shrink them completely or permanently using serums, lotions or face packs. Even resorting to drastic chemical/surgical procedures at the dermatologist’s isn’t quite capable of giving satisfactory results.  Nevertheless, you can try and minimize their appearance at least temporarily with clever makeup and a few natural skin care masks such as these: * Cleanse your face with a mild ...
