You've heard it a million times: Great eyebrows can completely transform your look. But just in case you had any doubts, we did some instant celebrity eyebrow makeovers to show just how dramatic the change can be.
First, we sat down with eyebrow expert and owner of New York City's Boom Boom Brow Bar, Malynda Vigliotti, to choose the best arches in thick, medium, and thin shapes. Then, we took stars with just plain horrible brows and -- with a little Photoshop magic -- gave them a better set. The difference is remarkable. Even women who were beautiful to begin with look noticeably prettier with a new pair of face-framers.
Disclaimer: Although our brow makeovers are an upgrade, some of them look a little wonky since they're not the celebrities' actual brows. "There isn't one exact template or stencil," says Vigliotti. "Everyone's face is so different -- you need to work with what you've got." While she'd love to get her tweezers on these stars, the visuals are also gratifying. "It demonstrates how important brow shape really is," she says. Check out these celebs' new brows and who knows, maybe you'll get inspired to do your own brow revamp too.
I disagreed with about half of the suggestions. Some of the middle celebrities looked the same either way. I've always thought Charlize has such class.
I've always kind of wondered about this whole brow thing and after looking at this slideshow have concluded that it's all just a bunch of fluff. I didn't see a remarkable difference between the two, in fact, on several occasions, I thought they looked better before! Will keep my brows looking the same.
I am glad to see the prices of these serums. I received an eyelash one from Total Beauty and am not sure of the results. I have very thin eyelashes and short-perhaps not a lot either. Seeing what was said about Latisse, I guess it has to be used all the time. After reading this article, I am going to see if I can find more information about the brand. I have to say one thing is, I never wore mascara for a long time, and I seem to have less of a problem with my lashes. But, I don't have the money to purchase something that maybe will work. So, my final decision will wait till later
The only women who look better with the "new" brows are Keira Knightley and Fergie. Jessica Alba and Megan Fox look especially bad with the eyebrows you gave them. You made Jessica Alba look hideous!
I'm going to have to disagree with his assessment of Julia Roberts. Curved brows make her look like the devil, she looks open and fresh with round brows. He's got a serious problem with round eyebrows. It's a natural look on some people, just because it isn't currently trending doesn't mean it looks bad.

Most of the women looked worse after -- the only two exceptions were Kristen Stewart and Fergie. They looked so much better.

These make overs are great. Eyebrows really do change the look of a person. They all look better.
