THE BROW TRENDS FORECAST

Rising Brow Trend: The Glazed Brow

The skin has been getting all the dewy love, but this summer, it’s brows’ time to glow.

The Glazed Brow is hydrated, glossy, and featherlight. Think soft light catching each hair for a luminous, healthy effect - never greasy or overdone.

It’s the finishing touch to minimal summer skin, a little hint of polish that makes you look expensive without even trying.


HOW TO GET THE LOOK

  1. Start your routine the night before, by hydrating every last hair for that extra summer glow with our Nourishing Brow Oil.

  2. Fill sparse areas with Ultra Slim Brow Definer, drawing light, feathery strokes for a realistic base.

  3. Swipe Clear Brow Gloss through the hairs, letting the formula sculpt and hydrate at the same time. The gloss sets brows with a flexible hold that never feels crunchy even on the hottest days.


GLAZED BROWS: PERFECT IF YOU...

  • Love the effortless “no-makeup” look but still want to look put together.

  • Want brows that photograph beautifully in natural light.

  • Prefer soft definition over structured arches for a modern, understated vibe.

Rising Brow Trend: Micro-Sculpt & Lift

Elongated. Lifted. Effortless.

Forget harsh exaggerated brow definition - this brow trend only focuses on drawing along your natural brow line, then working with your pencil's spoolie to blend and elongate your brows with upwards blending. No harsh angles. No heavy lines.

Trust us: if you're looking for a brow lift in under 60 seconds, this is your go-to.

HOW TO GET THE LOOK

  1. Define the under-arch area with our sharpened Eyebrow Pencil, creating soft, hair-like strokes.

  2. Gently brush brows upward and outward with a spoolie to blend any harsh edges.

  3. Accentuate and elongate even more with the matte Brow Highlight, to give an ultra natural brow lift - we promise, once you start, you can't stop.


MICRO-SCULPT & LIFT: PERFECT IF YOU...

  • Want a lifted, refreshed look without committing to harsh angles.

  • Have slightly flatter brows and crave more shape.

  • Need a style that transitions seamlessly from office chic to evening drinks.

Rising Trend: Poolside Brows

Think back to Dua Lipa's beachside brow look - glossy skin, wavy hair, and brows that look perfectly groomed, even after a swim.

Poolside Brows are the trend taking over beach clubs and rooftop pools this summer: softly tinted, subtly dewy, and completely waterproof.


They’re polished without looking overdone, with just a hint of colour and shape that stays put through SPF, sweat, and a spontaneous dip.

It’s that effortless, just-out-of-the-water glamour that feels equal parts cool and carefree.

HOW TO GET THE LOOK

  1. Sweep our Tinted Brow Gel through your brows for a soft, waterproof tint that *actually* stays put through SPF, sweat, and sea breeze.

  2. For an extra dewy glow, apply our Rose Gel formula along your brow bone to give your brows a subtle sheen.


POOLSIDE BROWS: PERFECT IF YOU...

  • Want brows that look effortlessly groomed while you’re literally poolside.

  • Need a low-maintenance, waterproof brow look that survives SPF, sweat, and a spontaneous swim.

  • Prefer a soft tint and dewy finish over heavy, structured brows for summer.

Making a Comeback: S-Brow Silhouettes

Minimal yet chic, straightened brows (sometimes called “S‑shapes”) elongate the face and feel fresh again.

This silhouette pairs beautifully with slick hair and clean summer skin.


For our full guide on how to get the S-Shape look that Bella Hadid loves so much, read our full breakdown.

S-SHAPE BROWS: PERFECT IF YOU...

  • Want a refined, editorial vibe that’s still wearable day-to-day.
  • Have rounder brows and want to create soft length.

Cooling Off: What’s Losing Its Heat

Glued Brows


The ultra-laminated, stiff-as-concrete brow is officially out.

Summer brows should feel soft, touchable, glossy, and flexible - not frozen in place.

This season is all about effortless lift with a bit of movement, rather than brows that look (and feel) glued down.

BLEACHED BROWS


Awards season might make bleached brows look tempting, but without a full glam squad, they’re near impossible to keep well-kept.

And let’s be honest - under the summer sun, who really wants to risk frying their brows even more?
