Natural Vs. Manicured Brows: Which Team Are You On?

When we think of our ideal eyebrow guise (and our mind goes there more often than we’d like to admit), the perfect brow falls into one of two camps; effortless and unkempt or groomed and strategically shaped. It’s true, it’s a fine line between over-plucked and overgrown, but that middle ground is where the face-framing magic happens. Below, we’ve identified top tier beauties that get it right.

It’s no doubt that thick brows are everywhere. When done right, outgrown brows accentuate facial features and give you a cool, youthful look. To accomplish, lay off the tweezers and embrace gels and waxes that'll help keep stray hairs in place.
