It has been noticed that even in the absence of makeup, correctly made up and plucked eyebrows make the look more expressive. Such a seemingly small detail, but without it, no makeup looks complete. The right curve in some cases even helps to hide flaws and emphasize dignity.
However, due to various circumstances, not every girl has the opportunity to regularly visit an eyebrow specialist. Does this mean that you can walk with unkempt eyebrows? Of course not! Below you can find the main principles of what should be the correct shape of the eyebrows. Moreover, in just a few minutes, you can learn how to get perfect eyebrows at home.
Fashion isn't always right
The desire to get rid of excess hair in the eyebrow area of each girl occurs at a different period of life. There are those who begin to pluck their eyebrows as a teenager. Others decide to get rid of extra hairs, already having adult daughters. Yes, and the reasons for plucking eyebrows are different for everyone, but the mistakes are often the same.
Not so long ago were in voguethin, like threads, eyebrows. Those who are now reviewing their photographs of those times with such "beauty" on their faces often accompany them with caustic comments and jokes. They don't seem to like what they wear. Only recently has the fashion world realized that every girl should have her own unique eyebrow shape.
This is a true statement due to several factors at once. But before we deal with it, let's look at the main mistakes when plucking eyebrows.
Mistakes in modeling
The most common problem is the inability to stop. Some people are so addicted to removing excess hair that they simply scoff at their face. Thin eyebrows make the face expressionless and even somewhat painful. In some cases, the girls just look comical.
The second problem is a misunderstanding of what naturalness is. Yes, in some fashion magazines you can find the statement that perfect eyebrows and natural ones are one and the same. However, nowhere does it say that we are talking about unkempt hair above the eyes.
This is similar to the concept of natural makeup. It exists, but it's like it doesn't exist. The same goes for natural eyebrows. Natural perfect eyebrows look like they have never been touched by tweezers, but in fact their appearance is the result of painstaking work in front of a mirror.
Colour selection. According to surveys, most girls do not know how to choose the color of the eyebrows. Some people think that what hethe brighter, the more expressive the face. This is an erroneous opinion. Perfect eyebrows should not be visible from a mile away. They complement the image, and do not turn the face into a mask.
Eyebrow formula
There is a universal formula for calculating the ideal shape of the eyebrows. It is worth noting right away: it is somewhat different from what it was several decades ago. Basically, as before, there are three points. Only now they are somewhat biased towards naturalness, so to speak. To determine each point, you will need a thin object - a pencil, a ruler, a brush.
- Start. The first point is marked on the vertical, which is located at the bridge of the nose. To find it, put a brush to your nose. Where it will intersect with the eyebrow, you need to put a dot. This will be the beginning of the eyebrow, and anything that grows up to this point must be carefully removed with a thread or tweezers.
- End point. And again we take a pencil or a brush and apply it to the face. Only now you need to press one part to the bottom of the nose and lay the brush so that it touches the outer corner of the eye. The second part of your brush will most likely touch the brow hairs. Everything beyond and below it should also be plucked.
- The highest bend point. Some continue to use the same brush as in the definition of the previous points, others simply look straight into the mirror. What do they want to see? They draw a line from the tip of the nose through the center of the pupil up to the eyebrow. The intersection of this line with the eyebrow is the place where the eyebrow should be higher.total.
But what is the optimal thickness? It all depends on the chosen shape.
Possible options
The ideal shape of the eyebrows is different for everyone. At the moment, stylists distinguish at least four.
- Rounded. This shape smoothes the visual perception of the oval of the face and makes it more rounded and balanced. Looks unsightly on round faces and just perfect on square ones.
- Sharp triangles. These are the same “eyebrows with a house”. On a triangular face, they will look ridiculous, but for chubby or those with a square contour, they will be a great option.
- Arch. The most classic ever. Professionals recommend it for triangular or square faces.
- Straight eyebrows should not be done by owners of a square face.
Let's talk about the subtleties
Before you make perfect eyebrows at home, you need to decide not only on the shape of the face and eyebrows, but also on what result you want to achieve. The fact is that there are some secrets worth knowing about.
So, perfect eyebrows can make a woman look younger. How? The higher the eyebrow line, the younger the woman looks. However, it is important not to overdo it here, as the same maneuver emphasizes heavy eyelids.
Owners of plump lips should also choose their ideal eyebrow shape. Stylists recommend trying thick and wide eyebrows. If you have not small eyes, then such eyebrows will look appropriate.and stylish.
Too sharp eyebrows are ridiculous. But if it is rather a flirtatious break, then the eyes look more expressive and younger.
Facilitate the plucking process
Looking at the photos of perfect eyebrows, it seems that giving them the right shape is easy and simple, but in real life the situation is more complicated. But everything can be simplified. So, some girls note that plucking is easier if you do it after taking bath procedures.
Some use an ice cube or a cooling salve. This can dull the pain.
Epilate?
Epilation is a quick way to correct eyebrows. But it is not recommended to use it often. There are at least 3 reasons for this:
- Epilation damages the follicle. A new hair simply does not appear, and it can be pulled out by accident.
- Excessive tension is created on the skin. Experts note that after such procedures, the epidermis is more susceptible to negative external influences. In a word, over time, in those places, the skin becomes flabby.
- Fashion changes regularly, and in order not to suffer later that hairs do not grow in the right places, it is better not to risk it.
You need to start pinching from the inside of the eyebrow. So you can be sure that only unnecessary hairs will be removed.
How to choose the shape of your eyebrows
One popular stylist around the world offered an interesting option on how to get perfect eyebrows at home. To do this, you will need an eyebrow pencil and a sheet of paper.
Standingin front of a mirror, color all the hairs of the eyebrows with a pencil, but do not touch the skin. No need to shape the eyebrows. Just paint everything you see, and when you're done, press a piece of paper against them.
Your natural brow shape can be seen on the resulting print. The thickest part of it is the body. Nothing can be removed from it. Thick brows equal perfect brows.
There are several hairs at the head of the body. They can be safely removed, like the first row of hairs at the base.
Bottom of the body, the eyebrows are adjusted very carefully. Pluck out only the bottom row to create a straight line.
The next place where you can adjust your shape is ponytails. Here you need to remove everything below the eyebrow roller. As for the thick part, only the bottom row is removed.
From above, the situation is much simpler. Pull out only excess hairs after bending.
This is the easiest way to get perfect brows. But not the only one.
Thread and white pencil
Remember how at the beginning of the article it was suggested to find the extreme points by applying a flat object? So, not so long ago, an interesting option was offered on the social network Instagram. You will need a thread and brown eyeliner or brow gel.
So, to create perfect eyebrows at home, you need to mark the center of the bridge of your nose with a thread. Next, two parallel lines are drawn from the middle of the wing of the nose. The distance from these two lines to the center should be the same.
The following lines are laid in the same way as fordetermining the edge of the eyebrow and its highest point. And they complete the preparatory manipulations with two parallel lines on the bridge of the nose, which will determine the thickness of the eyebrow.
How to get perfect eyebrows next? Now create a general image. To do this, connect the lines at the points of their intersection. Upon completion of these "artistic" works, all excess is removed with micellar water, and the resulting contour is filled with a pencil or shadows. The beginning of the eyebrows are shaded.
Who knows, maybe in one of the photos the perfect eyebrows are made using this method!
