Trend: Glitter Brows

DANIEL LEIVISKÄ | QUEER TRASH| MARLYS POP | SALMON PINK

I am all about the glitter brows! I'm so happy this trend has continued over the last year (or two?). A lot of people are crediting this to Dior's Spring/Summer 2014 RTW show. Though I have seen a few blog posts in my search for brow tutorials before 2013 that feature glitter brows, credit is definitely due to Raf Simmons. IMO, this is when the inklings of glitter brows blew up all over social media: the gold brows themselves via the trickle down theory, yo. 

BUT, I much prefer what bloggers/tumblr-goers have been doin'! ! ! Meduusalammikko is the first individual I came across that does both glitter and colored brows. They have a masterpost, including tutorials and products used~ From there, I was searching glitter brows, but for a hot minute there weren't that many people doing them.

The balance between colored/super sparkly brows and natural colored/mildly sparkly brows is surprising. I suppose this is because my dash is usually ~alternative~ posts whose makeup almost never includes what I refer to as glam. You know, 90% of makeup posts on Pinterest and WeHeartIt.

Realistically, the natural glitter brows are what I'm wanting to attempt, because there is only so much I can get away with at work. Also, my hands aren't all that steady (rip liquid liner). I have a few pots of eye glitter that I may Frankenstein with some kind of bonding agent. I'm curious if Wet 'n' Wild's Color Icon singles would do the trick? The skin swatches look promising. I guess I'll find out sometime this week.
