Eyebrows for a Heart Face: Exact Placement & Step-by-Step Technique

1. Identify Your Heart Face Shape

A heart face features a broad forehead, prominent cheekbones, and a narrow, pointed chin. Unsure if you have this shape? Use Makeup Check AI to scan your selfie and confirm your face shape for tailored advice.

2. Understand the Ideal Brow Shape

The goal for heart faces is to balance the upper and lower face. Soft, rounded arches with moderate thickness work best. Avoid high, sharp arches that draw attention to the forehead or thin brows that accentuate width above and pointiness below.

3. Step-by-Step Brow Shaping Technique

• Map your brow: Hold a brow pencil vertically from the side of your nose to the inner corner of your eye - this is your brow start. Angle it from your nose through your pupil for the arch. End it at the outer corner of your eye.
• Shape with a soft arch: With tweezers, remove stray hairs beneath the brow to create a gentle arch, not a dramatic point. The peak of the arch should align just outside your iris, helping soften the forehead’s width.
• Maintain moderate thickness: Don’t overpluck. Fuller brows add structure to the lower face, balancing the narrow chin. Use a brow pencil or powder to fill sparse areas, focusing on a natural look.
• Keep the tail extended: Extend the brow tail slightly outward (not downward) to visually widen the lower face and balance proportions.

4. Finishing Touches

Brush brows upward and outward with a spoolie. Set with clear gel for a soft, lifted look. If you’re unsure about the exact arch or thickness, Makeup Check AI can analyze your features and recommend your perfect brow placement.
