Which eyebrow shape flatters your face the most?

Thinking of getting semi-permanent eyebrow microblading or micro-pigmentation and not quite sure about the perfect eyebrow shape for your face?

The Art of Eyebrow Enhancement

I always believe that the right arch can rival a facelift! As a makeup artist specializing in semi-permanent makeup, I’ve seen how a perfectly shaped brow can turn heads and steal the show. Your eyebrows aren’t just facial features; they’re the gatekeepers of your expression, framing your eyes, defining your face shape, and adding a touch of symmetry to your features. Think of your eyebrows as your face’s best frame that can highlight your eyes and your look.

Discovering Your Unique Shape

Defining Round Faces

And for our round-faced beauties craving a little definition, it’s all about that arch, baby! A high, sharp arch is your secret weapon, lifting those features skyward and creating the illusion of bone structure where there wasn’t any before. Pair it with some ombre-look eyebrow embroidery for that extra pop, and you’ll be turning heads left and right!

The Impact of Eye Distance

Now, let’s talk about the distance between those peepers. Close-set eyes? Go for long, wide arches to draw attention outward and create the illusion of space. Wide-set eyes? Start your brows a little further in to bring the focus back to the center. It’s like playing with optical illusions, but way more fun!

If you need inspiration for your eyebrow embroidery shape, there are several things you should take into consideration before deciding on your new eyebrow shape.

The best eyebrow shape for your face shape

“Knowing your face shape is the first step to creating your most beautiful look”

Eyebrow shapes for a square face

If you have a square face with bold jaw bones, go for thick eyebrows with a strong arch. This will balance your boldest features and draw attention away from your jawline.

Tip: Opt for a soft color for your eyebrow embroidery that gives shape and definition to your features.

Eyebrow shapes for a heart-shaped face

Now, onto our heart-shaped stunners! With eyes and a forehead that already steal the spotlight, it’s all about keeping things sweet and simple. What about a simple, not-too-thick brow shape to maintain that delicate balance? Think of it as the cherry on top of your heart-shaped sundae—just enough to add that finishing touch without stealing the show.

This face shape needs to be treated with care because the focus is already on your eyes and forehead. Bold brows are a strong trend but don’t overdo it if you have a heart-shaped face. Try to keep your eyebrow shape straight and not too thick.

Tip: opt for a simple, soft shape when getting eyebrow micropigementation so you don’t draw more attention to your forehead area.

Eyebrow shapes for a long face

Long-faced lovelies, we’ve got you covered too! Straight-across brows are your ticket to Symmetry City. They highlight those horizontal features and give your face a balanced, harmonious vibe. And for that extra oomph, elongate those brow tails with a little nano eyebrow magic. It’s like giving your face a mini makeover—without the hefty price tag! The balance will really help to highlight and exaggerate horizontal features and balance out your face shape.

Tip: Make sure to elongate your brow-tail at the end with an eyebrow micro pigmentation treatment to emphasize things horizontally.

Eyebrow shapes for oval face

People with oval faces, consider yourselves lucky! A classic, balanced brow is perfect for this well-proportioned face shape. Yes, classic and balanced brows are your best friend, effortlessly complementing your facial features. It’s like the perfect pair of jeans—you just can’t go wrong!

Tip: There are really no rules, except to work with the dimensions of your face for the most flattering shape.

Eyebrow shapes for a round face

Because rounder faces need a little help in creating a definition of the bone structure. a high, sharp arch will provide a vertical point on your face, lifting your features upwards rather than outwards. Remember, the distance between your eyes is also a key factor in creating your perfect eyebrow shape.

Tip: Make sure to get ombre-look eyebrow embroidery that emphasizes the arch and tail more than the beginning of the brows.

Eyebrow shapes for close-set eyes

Close-set eyes go well with long, wide arches and elongated brow-tail eyebrows that point things outward.

Eyebrow shape for wide-set-eyes

If you have wide-set eyes, try to fill in your brows so that they start further in than your eyes to draw attention to the center.

Embracing Your Perfect Brows

Why do you need eyebrow shaping? Oh, let me count the ways! Imagine your face as a beautiful painting—now, would you leave that masterpiece without a frame? I didn’t think so! Your brows are the ultimate frame, defining those peepers and bringing balance to your facial features. They’re like the magic wand for your beauty.

So there you have it, my beauties! Choosing the perfect eyebrow shape isn’t just about following trends—it’s about embracing your unique beauty and having a little fun along the way. Whether you’re rocking a square face or an oval one, a heart-shaped beauty or a round-faced stunner, there’s a brow shape out there with your name on it. 

Think about it: the right eyebrow shape can transform you from “just rolled out of bed” to “ready to conquer the world”. Plus, semi-permanent brows mean you can skip the morning struggle of penciling in perfect arches, saving precious time. The semi-permanent eyebrow micro pigmentation can last for over 24 months. Hassle-free! So, embrace the power of perfect brows—they’re the beauty secret weapon you never knew you needed!
