1. Orange line: This indicates where your brow should start. It should align with where your nose bridge is.
2. Yellow line: The highest point of your brow should be at approximately the 2/3 point of your entire brow’s length.
3. Pink line: This is where your brow should end. The end of your brow, corner of eye, and nose should form a straight line.
4. Blue line: This is less talked about. The start and end of your brow should be near the blue line, with the end being higher than the start.
Now that you’ve learnt the basics, here’s where the magic happens.
