Well-groomed eyebrows of the correct shape will highlight all your advantages even without the use of cosmetics. The main thing here is a sense of proportion, don’t get too carried away and pluck them into a “thread” - this is already a thing of the past. The current trend is naturalness, which is given to us by nature.

The initial “frame” can be done in a salon by a professional who will select the desired shape in accordance with your face type. And then just maintain it by plucking out excess hairs yourself.

At home, eyebrow correction must be done by following simple rules:

• Organize good lighting, it is best to do this in daylight.
• An ice or hot compress will make the process less painful.
• Remove hairs only from the lower edge of the eyebrows, otherwise you risk changing your facial expression for the worse.
• It is more convenient to pull them out by grabbing them with tweezers at the roots, and if the skin is slightly stretched.

• Under no circumstances should you shave off excess hair, as it will then grow twice as fast and begin to stick out in different directions.

How to draw eyebrows

The right eyebrow shape can radically transform your appearance, highlight your strengths and hide your flaws. Therefore, you need to draw them taking into account the characteristics of your features and face shape:

• For an “oval” face, you can choose absolutely any one - everything will look beautiful.
• If it has a “round” shape, then a high rise and a short tip are recommended.
• For a “rectangular” look, straight eyebrows are suitable, without high rises or bends.
• The “square” shape, on the contrary, suggests a short line with a high rise.
• Owners of a “triangular” face need to give the eyebrow arch a rounded shape and they should be long.
• “Pear-shaped” face – eyebrows are slightly spaced and lengthened.
• Don't forget to consider the placement of your eyes.
• Don't draw them too close to each other - this gives extra age and visually makes the nose larger.

Before you start drawing:

• Visually divide your eyebrow into three parts: beginning, middle (bend at the highest point), end. To do this, you need to mentally draw several lines from the extreme point of the wing of the nose, as shown in the figure.
• Determine the fit of the eyes: measure the distance between the eyes - it should match the width of one of them. If it’s more, then you have wide-set eyes; if it’s less, it’s close-set.
