What started as a lighthearted joke has turned into an eyebrow-raising trend that has us all confused. Seriously, can we just take a moment to breathe? We’re tired of trying to keep up with every new beauty fad, from brow shapes to the latest lip gloss, because now we’re faced with feather brows.
Wait, what? As busy moms, we already have so much on our plates without considering slapping glue on our eyebrows.
Honestly, this trend has women everywhere scratching their heads. If we’re expected to embrace the latest cosmetic crazes, do we really need to style our brows to look like they’re made of centipede legs? Because that’s the last thing I want to evoke above my eyes!
The initial reactions from myself and my beauty-loving friends? A resounding NO. Just NO. One friend jokingly suggested, “If you want to stay ahead of the trend, why not glue a pigeon to the side of your face? Let’s make that a thing.” I’ve got some hilarious friends!
According to Glamour, this bizarre trend can be credited to Finnish makeup artist Stella Sironen. She initially posted about it on Instagram, suggesting the use of a glue stick to maintain that centipede-esque look. Because, obviously, it needed another layer of “what on earth?” Sironen later clarified that it began as a joke (which we’re still not laughing about), but it surprisingly caught on with other Instagram users.
And for those thrill-seekers who find feather brows too tame, there’s always the option to add gold glitter. Because if we’re living in a reality that resembles the Hunger Games, we might as well channel our inner Effie Trinket. She does have a fabulous sense of style, right?
So, what began as a playful idea is now gaining momentum as a legitimate beauty statement. If feather brows are your thing, go for it! We’ll just be over here, raising our eyebrows in disbelief while keeping our brows glue-free.
