8 steps to perfect Silhouette eyewear

The route to your eyewear from Silhouette

Rimless Aesthetics

Rimless eyewear let your own personality come through and make a discreet impression, they enhance your impact on others and underscore and accentuate your individual style. As probably your most important accessory and styling statement, your eyewear should be in harmony with your personal lifestyle and your personality and at the same time provide interesting contrasts.

The Silhouette aesthetics programme is being implemented at eye care professionals using the Silhouette styling kit and by trained Silhouette aesthetics style advisors. They select with you the eyewear which best suits your personality.

Every wearer is unique and the eyewear should be just as unique, a joy to wear. (Silhouette credo since1964)

Your 8 steps

1. Define personal style types
2. Define individual Lifestyle Worlds
3. Select preferred lens shape
4. Think about eye zone

5. Focus on face shape
6. Think about eye colour
7. Take into account skin and complexion
8. Appropriate make-up

1. Style types

Style types can assist you in finding your own style and to make it even more attractive by choosing the most suitable eyewear. Which style types matches your personal lifestyle best? Discover for yourself or take advice from your eye care professional.

2. Lifestyle Worlds

The aesthetics style advisor's job is to identify the customer's individuality, not only seeing one part of it, but looking at the personality, looks, lifestyle and taste as part of the decision making process. Silhouette Lifestyle Worlds help to create individual eyewear for individual customers and for the right occasion.

3. Lens shape

The lens shape has a significant impact on the charisma and appearance of the wearer, it should be in harmony with the personality and the looks. The right lens shape enhances the eyes, opens up the eye zone and allows the eyes to come to the fore.

4. Eye zone

The eye zone goes from the lower to the upper eye bone and across the width of the right to the left temple. The individual eyebrows are part of the eye zone and equally decisive for the choice of lens shape.

5. Face shape

In most cases a lens shape that contrasts with the face shape has a positive effect. Therefore people with round or oval faces are recommended to choose lens shapes with rounded corners while the angular contours of a square or rectangular face can be made to look softer with an oval lens shape.

6. Eye colour

Colours give a stronger first impression, underscore personality and character and enhance positive characteristics. If the eyes, hair colour and complexion are in harmony, the overall impression is consistent and attractive.

7. Skin and complexion

By choosing individual matching colours the beauty of the complexion comes to the fore and the skin looks even with a youthful sheen. An eyewear which is matched to the wearer can work like make-up by highlighting the advantages.

8. Make-up

There are no rights or wrongs, not too much or too little, every woman puts on make-up she likes, sometimes more intensive, sometimes more discreet, highlighting the eyes or lips, using strong colours or soft pastel shades. The only important thing is that you feel comfortable with it. The eyewear has no impact on the make-up, it simply supports the overall positive appearance of the face.
