Any advice/suggestions?

I have a flat face with a low nose and high cheekbones, and just about every single pair of sunglasses that I have ever tried on slides right down my nose and/or sits on my cheekbones. That, or when I smile, I can feel my cheeks brush up against the sunglasses.

I am looking for some oversize sunglasses, for better eye/face coverage and sun protection. Oh, and the bigger, the better - in addition to a flat face, I also have a large head. :P

P.S. I've tried sunglasses with nose pads, and in fact, owned a pair of classic Ray Ban aviators with nose pads for the longest time. However, I eventually had to give them up because the nose pads would quickly become sweaty/oily and slight right down my nose, not to mention they left indents on either side of my nose. So no more nose pads for me, methinks.
 
i'm asian, so i share the same problem as you.

I have a large collection of sunnies but usually only grab the ones that i know will not leave any markings on my face.

These are my go-to's:
chanel 5171 (had the store bent it so it is slightly flatter)
burberry 4056
