Eyebrow tinting is a popular cosmetic procedure that involves using a semi-permanent dye to darken the eyebrows, giving them a sharper, more brimmed look. While eyebrow tinting is a great way to enhance the overall appearance of your eyebrows, one important aspect to consider when getting your eyebrows tinted is your eye shape. Different eye shapes require different techniques to achieve the most flattering and natural-looking results. In this blog, Grace & Glamour will explore eyebrow tinting for different eye shapes and how to perfect your coveted filmy look for each shape. After all, that’s where most of us get the ideas and the courage for trial, isn’t it?
1. Almond-shaped eyes
Almond eyes are considered to be the most versatile eye shape, with a balanced and symmetrical appearance. You can create a variety of eyebrow shapes to complement this eye shape, from straight to arched. Our Grace & Glamour ‘brow-pros’ generally suggest complementing almond-shaped eyes with eyebrows that have a gentle arch that starts from the inner corner of the eye, peaks at the outer corner, and gradually tapers towards the end. We also recommend to instead maintain the natural shape and simply enhance the colour to make the eyebrows more defined and polished. A light to medium brown tint will work best for almond eyes, as it will enhance the natural shape of your eyebrows without overpowering your eyes.
2. Round eyes
Round eyes represent a circular shape with a visible crease in the upper eyelid. Hence, its best to balance out the roundness of the eyes, the eyebrows should be arched slightly higher and extend towards the temples. This will create an illusion of an elongated eye shape. Grace & Glamour team advocates a medium to dark brown tint that will complement your eye shape and at the same time, create the illusion of a longer eye. Avoid overly thick eyebrows, as they can make your eyes appear smaller.
3. Hooded eyes
Hooded eyes have a crease that droops over the eyelid, making the eyes appear smaller and less defined. To enhance the eyebrows for hooded eyes, it’s important to create a higher and more pronounced arch. This will help lift the eyebrows and open up the eyes. Tinting the eyebrows with a slightly darker colour can also add definition and make the eyes stand out more.
4. Upturned eyes
Upturned eyes have a natural uplift at the outer corner, creating a cat-eye-like appearance. To complement upturned eyes, the eyebrows should have a gentle arch that follows the natural curve of the eyes. The arch should be located towards the outer corner of the eye to balance out the upward tilt of the eyes. When tinting eyebrows for upturned eyes, it’s important to avoid overly dramatic arches and opt for a more subtle and natural-looking shape.
5. Downturned eyes
Downturned eyes have a natural drooping at the outer corner, giving a sad or tired appearance. To lift the eyes and create a younger look, the eyebrows should have a higher arch that peaks towards the end, creating an upward lift. Tinting the eyebrows with a slightly lighter colour can also help soften the downward tilt of the eyes and create a more balanced and chiselled look.
6. Deep-set eyes
Deep-set eyes are set back in the eye socket, making them seem smaller. To amplify deep-set eyes, your Glamourite ‘brow-buddy’ will want to create a straighter eyebrow shape that is not too thick. A light to medium brown tint will intensify deep-set eyes, as it will help to define the eyebrows without overpowering the eyes.
7. Wide-set eyes
Wide-set eyes are set further apart from each other, creating more space between the eyes. To balance out the space between the eyes, Glamour beauticians create a thicker, more defined eyebrow shape. A dark brown tint will complement wide-set eyes, as it will help to create a strong eyebrow shape and bring attention to the centre of the face.
8. Monolid eyes
Monolid eyes do not have a visible crease in the upper eyelid, and the eyebrows play a crucial role in defining the eye shape. To build monolid eyes, the eyebrows should have a straighter shape with a minimal arch that starts from the inner corner and extends towards the outer corner. Tinting the eyebrows with a medium to dark colour can help define the eye shape and create a more prominent and polished look.
So, ladies & gentlemen, eyebrow tinting is a fairly versatile cosmetic procedure customizable to different eye shapes to achieve the most flattering and natural-looking results.
