Hey guys!
I’m Lauren and for the next three days,
I’m going to try to rock three viral eyebrow trends.
The first one I’m going to try is
The second one is
And the third is this brand new trend that literally just started like last week and it’s
Starting this challenge, the one thing I know I’m going to have to do is start waking
up earlier because I am not a morning person and I usually don’t wear a full face of makeup to work.
I think it’ll be fun to see how my outfits go with these brows because I’m going to
let these brows sort of lead my life for the next three days.
So it’s day one of the Eyebrow Challenge
and today we’re starting with glitter.
I think this technique is kind of a fun festival look or a party look.
This is what the eyebrow looks like so far.
It’s sort of a turquoise glitter into a blue.
I’m going to clean it up a little bit with a Q-tip so it doesn’t look quite as crazy.
But so far, I kind of like it.
I put on a little bit of eyeshadow, a little winged liquid liner.
And I’ve tried to clean these up as best as I can.
They’re not perfect but I think they look pretty cool.
We’ll see what the reactions are going to be.
So it’s mid-way through the work day.
My eyebrows are holding up pretty well.
They’re starting to migrate a little.
I’m going to touch them up a little bit.
Generally the reaction’s been really positive.
And I think everyone’s sort of surprised by how wearable and sort of subtle they can look.
And I didn’t even go with a subtle color.
I think you could even go with a brown glitter if you had brown hair.
Even this blue sort of works.
So I’m finally home from the whole day.
Glitter eyebrows were a total yes.
I kept surprising myself every time I looked in the mirror or caught my reflection in a
store window.
I was like, “Ah, who’s she? Look at those brows!”
Oh, me?
I’m just removing glitter from every surface in my bathroom!
Today I think is maybe the scariest one of all.
I’m going to do feathered brows which is just this brand new trend.
What started as a joke on Instagram has gone insanely viral.
Feather brows are this technique where you brush the top of your hair up,
the bottom of your hair down,
and then that little bit of skin in between looks like the stem of the feather.
Glue it down with a glue stick to keep it there in that really feathery position.
So I think it’s coming together.
It looks...
totally crazy.
This is by far the craziest brow I think I’m going to do in this experiment.
This is my final look.
Feathered brows with a little gold in the stem.
And sort of a sunset, tropical eye.
You know what?
I’m sort of rocking a...
f#@%*g messy bedhead hair.
And I think I’m going to stick with it because
I need anything to distract from these eyebrows.
So I’m almost through with the workday.
When I texted a photo of these brows to my friend,
she said they freaked her out and
it looked like I had caterpillars growing out of my face.
So the brows actually came off really easy with my regular micellar water makeup remover.
And doesn’t seem like there’s any damage done.
I mean these just look my regular eyebrows.
But be careful.
Your little eyebrow hairs don’t need too much drama.
Hey guys!
It’s day three of my Viral Eyebrow Challenge.
And my last trend I’m gonna try is
Instagram Eyebrows.
Instagram Brows are really perfect, really manicured.
I’m going to be using this Nars Cream Eyebrow Gel.
Also going to be using this really angled, tiny brush for precision.
This is the gel and of course, as always,
I’m going to be using my little trusty spoolies.
This one is probably going to be the hardest for me, if I’m honest.
Right now it still looks sort of natural but I think it’s going to get a lot sharper
and a lot more defined.
I think this the one that’s the most wearable of the trends but it still can look really
crazy if you do it too bold in person.
I did the same technique on my opposite eyebrow.
And I think they’re looking pretty good.
I mean, they’re big but they’re bold.
This is my final look.
It’s very pink and I think it really goes well with the brows.
By the way, this took like...
15-20 minutes just for my eyebrows.
Just
for my eyebrows.
Overall, I don’t think anyone’s really noticed, honestly,
because I pretty much have big, dark brows
if I fill them in already.
But you know,
it’s a little more intense but I think the makeup helps balance it.
I certainly don’t hate them.
So the three days are over.
My brows have survived.
I’ve survived.
I think the biggest takeaway is that
you really should and could do whatever you want with your brows.
I certainly felt empowered to make bolder choices, especially sort of on an everyday basis.
I realize not everyone can wear a glitter brow to the office but
I can and I should.
Why not have more fun with it and not take it too seriously?
Even if people did quietly think,
“Oh my god, what’s wrong with that girl's eyebrows?”
Who cares?
Right?
Thanks for watching and we’ll see you next time.
