When I was in middle school I was a complete dork.
I know many of you guys will argue I'm still a complete dork, but I think I've improved
a bit.
So I was in band, I was on the math team, I was skinny, I couldn't talk to girls.
And I had glasses which made me looked bad.
So in today's video gents, I imagine that I can go back in time and I give myself five
tips on how to rock glasses and look great.
So you need proof of how I bad I looked.
Okay.
I'm going to pull up a picture right here.
That is me and looked at those glasses.
I have to admit I did not like those glasses.
The story is I had to get them.
My mom bought the cheapest ones and for the few years I did wore those glasses I hated them.
So for that young Antonio, I'm creating this video.
Tip #1.
Be confident.
Own the look.
Understand that wearing glasses actually makes you look smarter.
It draws attention to the eyes.
The right type of glasses can make you more trustworthy.
There's a lot of things about glasses that are great.
They don't make you less of a person.
I have to admit.
When I was wearing I didn't like them at all.
They were the cheapest frames.
I didn't have any choice of the matter and I just did not like them.
They didn't work for me.
So, I wasn't confident.
But if I can tell myself anything, you know just own what you got and don't be ashamed
to wear glasses.
Tip # 2.
Find the right frame for your face.
So this was something I never knew.
We simply went with the cheapest ones.
In the military they called these birth control glasses and yes that is what we actually called
them and there was a reason because they were ugly.
They were thick.
It was the same for everybody.
There was no choice.
Look at yourself in the mirror.
Understand that you've got a face shape.
Identify that face shape then find the right frame types which are going to bring balance
to your face.
Now I'm going to pull up a whole chart right here.
This chart I'm going to link to down in the description so you can go check it out but
find your face shape.
Find the glasses that work for you.
Boom.
It's emerging.
Understand that one face shape doesn't have just one particular glasses.
There are definitely going to be a few that you can go with.
Tip #3.
I will tell myself to build that time machine go into the future and buy my glasses online.
Because when I bought my glasses we had to go to the only outlet that we know of there
in midland Texas that would accept our partial insurance and we still have to pay an arm
and a leg for those glasses.
They were super expensive.
Guys, there are now so many more options if you look online.
Some of these options they're going to save you like 70%.
Speaking of which glassesusa.com, guys, they are the paid sponsor of this video and I've
been with this company for over a year and a half.
I have them sent me some frames out here in Ukraine.
I had them sent them out to me in Wisconsin.
Guys, good company at a great price.
Let me go ahead and pull up their website.
So the thing I loved about glassesusa.com is their one mission to change the way people
purchase classes by sticking with one simple belief and that's eyewear shouldn't break
the bank.
Now let's look at their frame selection.
Glassesusa.com offers over 2500 styles.
We're talking name brands like Ray-Ban, Oakley, Tom Ford or Armani.
Also the quality, the lenses that are offered by glassesusa.com are at the same high quality
as retail.
Now they're virtual mirror.
I've created an entire video where I walk you through glassesusa.com their virtual mirror
tool and you can try on any pair of frames and see what they actually looked like on you.
You upload your picture and boom you're able to see it.
Also its risk free shopping.
So we're talking 100% money back guarantee, full refund within 14 days delivery, no questions
asked, 24/7 support.
Gentleman, most of all, it's about savings.
I mean I really member this.
My mom writing that check and her just like hammer it like hey you do not break this,
do not lose this cause this just cost us a whole lot of money.
And when you can find a website, when you can find a company that you can work with and
actually delivers you a great deal and that's their main mission.
I love to support them and definitely go check them out.
Down in the description of this video I'm going to put a link over to them with a special
code.
Tip #4.
Consider having a few frames and actually having them kind of as an accessory and having
backups.
So a lot of times people go with one particular color and frame.
Okay.
That's what they go with. Boom.
This is what they have.
Imagine if you would decide hey I want to go ahead and purchase two to three frames,
maybe go with this right here body in red, body in yellow.
There's a guy named Seth Godin.
I've seen him just owned the look of yellow and red frames and I loved it.
A lot of women do this but men can pull this off as well especially if you're in a creative
field.
But maybe you want to try something like a half frame or a partial frame.
You want to try something hey it's a little bit smaller, maybe even have some color on
the side.
The point is don't be afraid to again going back to point #1 own it, be confident, and
try different colors, try different styles and find what works for you.
Tip #5.
I will tell myself protect those glasses.
Just simply just take care of them.
Get a case.
We didn't opt for a case.
So I can tell you what happened to those glasses is they ended up getting scratched and within
a few months I had some scratches on the lens and I had those things for two years and the
scratches built up.
I swear by the time I got rid of those classes, it looked so bad but we had to make do.
Guys, get a good case which glassesusa.com sends you a very nice case.
This one case with a pair of Ray-Bans that they sent me.
Also, gentleman, use a cloth that's specific designed to clean your glasses.
You don't want to use something like your shirt or something that's harsh that's going
to end up scratching the lenses.
Alright, gentleman, so now it's your turn.
I want to hear from you down the comments.

Do you prefer contacts?

feeling better about yourself?

I love to learn from you and go check out the sponsor glassesusa.com.

That's it, gents.
Take care.
