Brows for Your Face Shape

Brows for Your Face Shape

Brows shape and frame the face, but are also susceptible to trends and styles. With so many different shapes, how can you tell what suits your facial features the most? Our in-house brow experts have taken the stress out of brow shaping with our guide on the ideal shapes for the most common face shapes.

Read on to discover what you need to do!

Round

For those with a round face, the goal is to lift and sculpt your brows. Going for a high-arched brow will elongate your face in moments and give added dimension. One of the easiest ways to lift your brows and emphasise your arch is to use our Brow Laminate Sculp & Set tool, an easy-to-use product that gives you salon-look results from the comfort of your own home.

Apply product directly to your brows, brushing it back and forth to distribute the product evenly, then use the comb to sculpt them upwards, focusing on emphasising your arch. To achieve the ultimate laminated look, use the brush to set hairs firmly in place.

Bonus tip: Add a touch of highlighter to your brow bone to make your arch stand out.

Oval

If you have an oval shaped face, almost any brow shape will suit you!

We recommend emphasising the natural shape of your brows by filling gaps and adding lift with our Brow Lift Micro Precision Gel. The tinted brow gel is ultra-buildable allowing for subtle colour or bold intensity, allowing you tailor your brows exactly how you like them.

Diamond

With your striking cheekbones and angular chin, you should aim for your brows to widen the appearance of your forehead and add a touch of softness. By having a gently curved brow without a dramatic arch, your brows will frame your face with soft balance.

Using our creamy and longwearing Everyday Perfect Brow Pencil, brush up your brow hairs before gently filling in any sparseness. Make sure to focus on softening the shape of your arch, filling in any sharp angles on your brow bone.

Heart

For those with heart shaped faces, the goal is to balance your incredible jawline, we recommend soft and fluffy brows that are straight or slightly rounded. This shape will help balance your facial proportions while giving you a youthful refresh.

Get this tinted and volumized look with our Magic Brows, a brush on gel that boosts volume with its fibrous formula. Simply apply the tinted gel using the spoolie in an upwards motion before using the Precision Brow Pencil to fill in hair-like strokes under your arch to straighten the shape of your brow effortlessly and easily.

Square

Full and soft brows with a curved arch are ideal for a square face shape. These soft features will balance and flatter your features.

Create fluffy hairlike strokes with the Brow Stroke Feathering Brow Pen, a finely tipped pen that quickly and easily creates fake hairs or extends shorter ones.

Bonus tip: While most of our brow hairs grow at an angle, the ones towards the centre of our face actually grow upwards so adding vertical strokes towards the centre will ensure these pen strokes look natural.
