Dragon brows: The eyebrow trend that’s gone a step too far

Orlaith Condon

Alright lads, enough is enough.

We’re all for personal expression and experimentation, but this eyebrow thing is getting out of control.

We could just about handle the bleached brows. We could maybe find a place for the feathered brows. We sighed at the thought of barbed wire brows. But this is the straw that broke the MUA’s heart.

Dragon brows – yes, let that sink in.

What can we say about this ‘trend’? Well, according to Allure, the look was created by the makeup artist “V”, who was apparently inspired by the artist behind the feather brow.

After admittedly playing to much Skyrim on the Xbox, the makeup artist drew inspiration from the dragons in the game and came up with this look.

If you’re so inclined, you can recreate the look with brow gel or wax and a fine brow brush, the makeup artist advises.

While we’re open to trying out most trends, we find it hard enough to get our brows to behave without adding wax and spikes to the equation, so we’ll be giving this one a miss.
