To make your eyebrows look harmonious on your face, you need to take into account not only fashion trends. It is important not to forget about your type and facial features. A properly chosen eyebrow shape can really work wonders, and I'm not just talking about adjusting the face type.

Eyebrows visually rejuvenate, make the look charming, mysterious and even bitchy (many like the latter, especially men). But everything has a downside: eyebrows can make the look sad, and the expression on the face - comical.

In today's article I will tell you briefly and succinctly how to choose the right eyebrow shape for yourself.

Oval face

In this face shape, the widest part is the cheekbones, the chin is rounded, not very narrow and not very large.
Charlize Theron as an example

Almost any eyebrow shape is suitable. Yes, such lucky women were also very lucky with the selection of haircuts. With an oval face shape, you can choose eyebrows that will correct facial features in a winning light! But do not forget about the shape of the eyebrows, which will spoil any face, such shapes include eyebrows with a too long drooping tail, because they visually make the look heavier and make it sad. And also eyebrows with a too high rise and an acute angle - will make the look angry, and in some cases will give the face a surprised expression.

Round face

If you sit right in front of a mirror, and even with a ruler, your face will be almost equal in length and width. The owners of a round face do not have clear lines, facial features are soft and smooth.
Selena Gomez as an example

Many owners of a round face are trying to correct it by any means, resort to hard contouring, or completely remove Bish's lumps. Not everyone knows that eyebrows can also do their bit in correcting the face, the main thing is to choose your own shape.

Round eyebrows without a break are categorically contraindicated for chubby ones, otherwise you will only emphasize your face shape. It will appear even more round (the picture on the right above illustrates this perfectly).

Look towards eyebrows with a slight break, like Selena Gomez's (also called triangular). This shape will balance the round face and accentuate the eyes. Do not forget about the measure, the higher and sharper you make a break, the more it will emphasize the roundness of the face.

Square face

The square face has a large chin and a broad forehead. The width of the cheekbones and the width of the forehead are equal.
On the example of Angelina Jolie

The owners of a square face are distinguished by a massive jaw. To "soften" it a little and distract attention - give preference to eyebrows with a high peak. The "surprised look" effect will play into your hands.

Thin, short or round eyebrows are not your song at all, we pass such shapes.

Pear-shaped face

Narrow forehead, face widening towards the chin.
Using Kelly Osbourne as an example

Nothing complicated here, choose graceful eyebrows with a slight curve. But do not forget about the length of the eyebrows, otherwise you will visually break the proportions.

Heart-shaped face

Wide forehead, face tapers towards the chin, usually the chin is narrow.
Reese Witherspoon as an example

This is where round eyebrows will look great, they will distract attention from a sharp chin, slightly balancing the overall look. Straight eyebrows will make a heart-shaped face look like a mime and give a little comicity to the image.

Long face

Face length is much greater than width
Liv Tyler as an example

And now we come to the face, which is suitable for straight eyebrows. It is this shape of the eyebrows that makes the face visually more rounded. Short eyebrows with a break will only emphasize the elongated shape of the face. Excessive thickening of the eyebrows in this case can play a cruel joke with you, too thick eyebrows can give a frown.

When building the shape of the eyebrows, in addition to the type of face, it is necessary to take into account individual characteristics:

1. Close-set eyes can be visually corrected by making the distance between the eyebrows a little more, but you should not get carried away, it will be enough to remove a couple of hairs at the base.

2. Far-set eyes will be corrected if you make the distance between the eyebrows a little less, you should not overdo it in this matter either, otherwise a monobrow is provided.

3. Forget about eyebrows with strings, especially round ones, such eyebrows do not suit anyone and look vulgar.
