Accessor-eyes

They say your eyes are the windows to the soul…my eyebrow guru Eliza says, if that’s true, “then the eyebrows are the frames.” Eyebrow shaping has revived itself as the newest trend in the beauty industry. Sephora now carries over 100 eyebrow-grooming products, with more cosmetic lines adding their own versions each day. Is the industry just finding new ways to drain our wallets or are eyebrows really to be glamour-eyes-ed?

Media-dubbed “Queen of the Arch” Eliza Petrescu says, “The eyebrows are the only feature of your face that you can dramatically change without surgery.” She has a point (and it’s not just on the end of her perfectly sharpened tweezers). A round arch can make you look surprised, too dramatic of an arch can make you look severe; eyebrow customization seems like a logical answer, and luckily the spa industry has experts to help.

Suddenly your eyebrows are a work of art – with the price tag to go with it! Petrescu, along with other artists in the industry charge anywhere from $65 to $120, and while home maintenance is a must, the experts adv-eyes that initial shaping must be done by a professional, lest you over-pluck or under-shape.

A w-eyes man once said, “A picture’s frame captures all the beauty within its borders.” Shouldn’t yours?
