While body language pundits have a thing or two to say about the way our eyebrows move and animate to express a range of emotions, beauty experts have waxed lyrical on the importance of well shaped brows in enhancing one’s looks.
Of course, not everyone is endowed with a neat growth of hair that can be shaped in the style of the season, but with access to a host of beauty aids, beautiful eyebrows are anyone’s to have. For, more than the basic makeup accoutrements like foundation, eye shadow and lipstick, what has seen major change over the years is the shape of the eyebrow.
Whether it is the trend of the thin, sketchy eyebrows or the thick well groomed ones, eyebrows continue to rule the beauty industry with celebrities dictating the trends to rock every season.
Beauty industry observers would recall that skinny and arched brows were in during the early part of the last century, even though they tended to make one look older and even pretentious. That it even saw a comeback demonstrates the fashion quotient of eyebrows. Things, however, changed with social media influencers setting the tone for arched, over-contoured, heavily made up brows.
Fortunately, this too shall pass, as industry watchers are betting on down to earth brows that have a naturally youthful appeal – with less fillers and liners.
