Bold brows have been popular for a while now, but not everyone can pull off thick brows. Luckily, you can still look fierce even if your eyebrows don't exactly resemble Camilla Belle. Here is a guide on how to work your natural shape.
There are two things that you need to take in to consideration about your eyebrows before you go heavy-handed with the tweezers or fill them in.

First: Eyebrow Shape
You need to figure out where your brows start, end and arch. This has to do with your eye and face shape. These points will help you maintain the natural placement of where your brow should be.
Your eyebrow should begin in line with your nose. If you take a straight object, like an eyeliner brush or pencil, and line it up against your nose--that is where your eyebrow should begin. Then, when you pivot the straight object, so it lines up with the outer corner of your eye--that is where your brow should end. Lastly, your arch (however high or low), should be straight above the outer edge of your iris.
Second: Fill Them In
Most people are hesitant to fill in their brows, but once you figure out how to do it, you'll realize your brows are one of your most important features. How you fill in your brows depends on your face and brow shape, your personal style and even how you part your hair. You can fill them in really lightly just to add definition, or you can go bold!

Ali |
Ali has very arched brows. Arched brows are generally sexier and give you a cat-eyed look. Her brows were a good length and arched in proportion to her eyes. They are a little thinner, but this works for Ali. I didn't want to add any thickness, so when I used Dior Powder Brow Pencil in Sand, I just focused on darkening and following the natural shape of her brows. This shape is a little more intense and sharp, so it's not something that everyone can pull off. This eyebrow shape reminds me of Megan Fox or Angelina Jolie.
