Let’s face it: No one survived the ’90s without doing serious damage to their eyebrows. If your brows bounced back and are now just as bushy as they were in your teenage years, great! But if sparse patches reign supreme or things just aren’t as Cara Delevingne-looking as you’d like them to be, it’s time […]

The post Afternoon delight: Your best bet for getting Cara Delevingne brows, stat appeared first on FASHION Magazine.

Because we are obsessed with everything Miley Cyrus, our radar is blowing up with the star’s latest radical alteration. She’s ditched the full dark eyebrows we’ve come to know (and secretly covet) for a pair of platinum blond arches.

Cyrus’s barely-there-brows sent the internet into a frenzy last night, after making a debut on Lily Allen’s Instagram. (The pair were out partying in L.A., as young, popular stars tend to do.) Never one to hide from social media, Cyrus also shared a snap of her new brows—while posing with Miranda Kerr, no less.

Given that The Hunger Games: Catching Fire comes out tomorrow, we have to ask: Could our favourite limit pusher be channeling the over-the-top women from the Capitol with their bleached brows? On the other non-fictional hand, the notable lightened arches of Lady Gaga and just about every model on the Gucci Fall 2013 runway could have also inspired the bleach job.

It hasn’t been easy keeping up with eyebrow trends over the years. In the ’90s we fell victim to the tweezer’s evil whisper to pluck just one more hair to achieve sleek, thin arches. But as styles have changed and a bushier, more natural look has come into favour (à la the boyish brows at Isabel Marant Fall 2013) it’s time to appreciate the eyebrows we were born with—and the beauty products that help make them stand out.

While Cara Delevingne’s celebrated brows are certainly worth obsessing over and Lily Collins make us never want to touch a tweezer again, not everyone is blessed with bold arches. However, with the simple swipe of a brow pencil, wax or shadow, even the sparsest brow can make a statement. Whether you’re a blonde, brunette or redhead, our Beauty Panel has tips and tricks for achieving flawless, filled-in eyebrows.

Cara Delevigne is having a moment. She’s one of the most popular models in the industry, her face everywhere—from Burberry billboards to Vogue UK covers—and did we mention she spends her free time hanging out with royals? While we don’t want to reduce her appeal down to one single aspect, it’s impossible to mention Cara without talking about her prominent eyebrows. Bushy, bold and totally becoming, Cara Delevinge’s eyebrows make us never want to touch tweezers ever again. However, that’s not all it takes to achieve her iconic look. We spoke with Tweezerman brow expert Mary Dhang about Cara Delevinge’s eyebrows and she shared the steps to achieving this luscious look. Runway-worthy brows for all!

Something interesting happened on the People’s Choice Awards red carpet last night. Taylor Swift said “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” to her traditional beauty look while Kaley Cuoco went a little bit country with Carrie Underwood-inspired hair and makeup. Both stars graced the People’s Choice Awards stage many times throughout the night—Swift took home the award for Favourite Country Artist and Cuoco hosted the show—but when it came to beauty, we think Taylor Swift definitely comes out on top.

With bright hazel eyes and possibly the best eyebrows since Brooke Shields, it’s pretty much impossible for Lily Collins to not look stunning. While in Toronto this month for the TIFF premiere of Writers she walked the red carpet in an extremely elaborate Balmain dress—but it was her the simplicity of her glowing skin and dramatic lashes that held the look together. “I told Lily that I think this [red carpet] was a dress moment more than a hair and makeup moment [but we] still wanted to make her skin and her eyelashes a star,” explained celebrity makeup artist Beau Nelson. To do so, he used a full range of Victoria’s Secret VS Pro makeup products—but the real beauty was all in the application. Here are five tricks that will change the way you apply makeup:
