It feels like every time we open TikTok at the moment, every other video features one of two filters. One shows you exactly where to place your contour, the other is how to create the perfect brow shape to frame your features. Seeing as contouring isn’t everybody’s cup of tea, we’re here to talk about the latter.
The filter in question, aptly named “Eyebrows” in the app, maps out seven dotted lines on users’ faces that show where the start, arch and end of each brow should sit, as well as a line marking the middle of the face.
The theory is similar to the technique made famous by brow technician to the stars Anastasia Soare, founder of Anastasia Beverly Hills, that she named the “Golden Ratio”, which uses the mathematical ratio of thirds to shape brows according to a person’s bone structure.
At the time of writing, more than 12 thousand videos have been made using the filter, which often sees TikTokers then filling in their brows according to the visual guide.
In one clip that has racked up more than 800,000 views, creator Ling Tang actually committed to shaving the very ends of her brows off before styling them – and many viewers flocked to the comments’ section of the post to praise the filter.
“I did it and honestly I question… why didn’t I do it sooner!” one fellow TikToker commented, as another chimed in with, “I’m kinda afraid [of] trusting this filter but it looks good on you!”
Meanwhile a third viewer added, “That gave you an instant face lift it looks so goooooood”.
A fourth commented “THEY LOOK SO GOOD”, to which the creator herself replied, “Thank you! Best brows I’ve ever had.”
Several users also asked what product Ling had used to brush up her brows for a laminated look, and luckily for them she confirmed it was the bargain Schwarzkopf got2b Glued 4 Brows & Edges 2 in 1 Hair Gel, which you can snap up yourself for a mere £3.49 here.
Who knew that a filter could be so very helpful?
