Your eyebrow shape frames your face, and can make the difference between a gorgeous look and a boring one!
Eyebrows are a complicated business. You might think thin and high eyebrow
shape is the best no matter what, but what it really comes down to is your face
shape.
Now the good news is that there is no “best” face shape. The hottest stars in the world who are
known for their beauty all have different face shape. So no matter what your face shape is, you
can still look amazing!
The eyebrow shape puts a finishing touch on your look and help frame your face. Here are some
tips for how to choose the best looking eyebrow shape for your face shape.

2. Face Shape #1: Oval
If, like the gorgeous Jessica Alba, you have an oval face
shape, you’re in luck! Oval face shapes go great with just
about all eyebrow shapes. Jessica has a flat look, but
thinner, higher arches can be a sexy attention grabber!
Face Shape #2: Round
If you have a round face shape, you can take some
eyebrow shape cues from Selena Gomez. Her slim
eyebrow shape with a medium arch perfectly
complements her round face shape.
Face Shape #3: Long
A long face shape is a little trickier to work with, but the
results can be just as stunning! Flat brows will make
your face look even longer, but if your brows are too
arched you’ll end up with a permanently surprised look!
Follow Liv Tyler’s example here, and go with a longer,
gently curved eyebrow shape to draw the eye’s
attention horizontally instead of vertically.

3. Face Shape #4: Heart
Since your face is already heart shaped, why not go
with it? Use a gently curved eyebrow shape as the
bumps on the top of the heart, and your chin as the
bottom. Reese Witherspoon wears this look perfectly!
Face Shape #5: Diamond
Rihanna has a diamond face shape. See how her
brows arch upward, which helps to soften the angles
in her face. Be careful not to go too high, though, or
you’ll end up looking like Spock!
Face Shape #6: Square
If your face is square shaped, you might have very
strong facial features, like Angelina Jolie. To keep
things consistent, your eyebrow shape should be
stronger and a little thicker to balance your jawline.

4. These are just guidelines, of course.
