SUPREME BEAUTY OF THE WEEK
EYEBROWS
We all know when
choosing an eyebrow shape, the most important thing to keep in mind is the
shape of your face. But it isn’t the only thing. Your haircut also makes a big
difference. So if you’re playing with the idea of switching up your hair to
celebrate the new year, also remember that your brows will need a little
tweaking as well. Noemi Grupenmager, the CEO and founder of Uni K
Wax Centers, gave some tips on finding the right brow
for your haircut.
Square Faced:
A square jaw accents the angularity of your face, so softly rounded brows are
the way to go. “Make sure your brows are not too angular,” says Healy. “But
beware of making brows appear too round; you don’t want to over pluck and
create rainbow-shaped brows!”
Round Faced:
“If your face is round you want to make sure your brows are very angular,”
Healy advises. “Because there is a lack of definition in a rounder face, the
perfect angled brow can bring out and define facial bone structure that is
lacking or not present.” For round faces, a higher arch is flattering.
Long Faced:
“A long face is characterized by features that are vertically stretched out,” Healy explains. “In this case, it is important to extend the tails of your brows east-to-west to really play up horizontal features.”
“I always suggest that the tails of brows extend beyond the corner of the eye, but a long face should make it a point for tails to extend a bit longer. It is important to beware when sculpting the tail, however, as allowing it out too far will drag the eye
down and make it appear droopy.”
Heart Faced:
“Although bold brows are in this season, a heart shaped face will definitely
want to steer shy of this trend,” Healy says. “ Because of the petite jaw line
and emphasis on the upper portion of the face, it is important to keep brows
well-manicured and exceptionally groomed.” “That being said, a thin brow is
never in! The idea here is to create a shape that is controlled and never
bushy. This tight brow on the top hemisphere of the face will serve to balance
the smaller chin and jawline of the bottom half.”
Oval Faced:
A classic, balanced brow is perfect for this well-proportioned face shape. Just make sure you follow Healy’s three rules for all face shapes (see below).All Face Shapes
No matter what face shape you have, there are three golden rules to follow when it comes to your brows, according to Healy.
1. The head of the brow
should begin at the bridge of your nose. “This point can be easily found by
vertically holding a pencil up to either side of your nose bone.”
2. The arch of your
eyebrows should be about two-thirds of the way out, Healy says. “One of the
biggest mistakes I see day to day is a centered arch. This gives the dreaded
‘rainbow’ shape!”
3. Don’t cut your brows
short. “The tail should, at the very least, end on an imaginary line from the
corner of the nose to the corner of the eye,” Healy says. “You can allow it to
extend slightly further as long as that tail doesn’t end lower than where the
head begins (this can make the eyes look droopy). Make sure your tails always
taper to a crisp point to best lift the eye.”
