Eyebrows are an oft-forgotten aspect of any beauty regiment – but they shouldn’t be. Brows frame the eyes and thus can have a huge impact on how certain facial features appear. While some may rock bolder brows well, others might do well with a slender design. “Brow architect” Tiffany Reicosky of Browhaus in NYC told Refinery 29 that an ideal brow depends largely on a person’s face shape. By following these tips, you can flatter and enhance your best features while drawing attention away from flaws.
Round
Round-faced ladies should consider an angled brow with a high arch. By cutting the tail of the brow short, you can give the illusion of an elongated face.
Square
A more square-jaw calls for a sharp peak. Give the brow a thicker, fuller shape and enhance the color with the Youngblood – Brow ARTISTE (Dark).
Diamond
Slim a diamond-face shape by creating a curved brow, which can make the widest part of your face appear more narrow. Create a natural contour with the Linea Perfetta Brow Pencil by Borghese.
Heart
A rounded brow shape with a feminine arch can soften a pointier chin on heart-shaped faces.
Oval
This face shape is already proportionate – so you have the freedom to experiment. Try a variety of brow styles with theBalm – Balmsai Eyeshadow and Brow Palette with Shaping Stencils.
Long
Avoid high arches and go for a more flat, horizontal line to balance out the vertical length of the face with some width.
