PERFECT EYEBROWS

Find out what is the best shape for your eyebrows, based on your eyes and the shape of your face.

When dealing with the subject of hair and beauty, we often forget to touch on the subject of eyebrows. Apart from the mouth, the eyebrows are certainly the most mobile feature of the face, and therefore very expressive. If you've ever made even a minimal study of cartooning, you'll know that a great deal of emotion is conveyed through the eyebrows. Because of this, we have to know how to properly shape them.

The ideal eyebrow shape is formed by following three lines. It begins at the outer edge of the nostril, reaches its apex (highest point) at the line even with the outer edge of the iris of the eye (the colored portion of the eye) and extends just beyond the outer corner of the eye. The end of the eyebrow and side of the nostril should form a line that intersects the outer corner of the eye.

For women, the inside portion of the eyebrow should be thickest, and should taper to the outer edge.

You should also be aware of the balance of the other facial features when shaping the eyebrows. Here are some suggestions for common facial problems:

LOW FOREHEAD

With a very low forehead, even a moderate arch can leave you looking permanently surprised. Try to use a low arch in shaping the eyebrows to give the forehead more height.

WIDE-SET EYES

When a person has widely set eyes, you can make them appear closer together by extending the brows inward a bit. Be cautious, however, not to give a "frowning" appearance.

CLOSE-SET EYES

By shaping the brows a little closer to the inner corner of the eye and extending the outer edge a bit further outward, you can give the illusion that the eyes are further apart.

ROUND FACE

Women with round faces will find that an eyebrow shape with a high arch and extended to the end of the cheekbone gives them a more narrow-faces appearance.

LONG FACE

For a long face, flatten the eyebrow arch to almost nothing, this will have the effect of making the face appear shorter. Remember not to extend the brows past the outer corners of the eye in these cases.

SQUARE FACE

Use a high arch and a rounded curve on the outer ends of the brows to make the square face appear more oval.
