Have We Reached Peak Instagram Brow Craziness?

Yes. Yes, we have. - by marie claire

Have We Reached Peak Instagram Brow Craziness? GoRunway

You guys, Instagram brows have officially jumped the shark. 

Going way beyond real-life brow inspiration or even Instagram-only, pile-on-the-make-up techniques, brow art is now just so over the top I don't even get a "wow, that is so creative!" vibe anymore. And I understand it's all about those double-taps and likes, and the weirder things are, the more likely they are to garner attention, but it's time to call bullsh*t on batsh*t crazy brows. 

Just like this iPhone blender was my peak weird-foundation-application hack, bread crumb brows are what finally tipped me over the edge. 

Bread. Crumbs. 

This was gonna be a glitter brow, but those breadcrumbs were calling my name. Anyway, this was inspired by @atlantip who is really talented, and a wonderful person! 💘 | Products: @katvondbeauty Metal Matte palette (suede) and Lock-it creme concealer + @nudestix pencil in Blush + some clear gloss and breadcrumbs | Brows: @artdeco_cosmetics clear brow gel | #mua #makeupartist #artist #art #eyes #blueeyes #freckles #eyeshadow #abstract #editorial #editorialmakeup #brows #lashes #gloss

(Please resist the urge to reach through your screen and brush those crumbs off.)

If you're after real life brow inspiration, then click here for the "it" brow shape for 2017, here for tips on how to find the right brow product for you, or here to see some of our favourite celebrity brow shapes. 

And because I know this is just my opinion and there are some that might actually enjoy whacky brow art, well, I hope you enjoy the below.

Peacock feather brow

ok so obviously this has gotten out of hand and it's hilarious and amazing but i wanted to clarify some stuff: 1. i joked about starting a trend in the caption of my first pic not about the actual makeup 2. drag queens have used glue on their brows since forever so please don't credit me for that lol 3. i know that brows are a sacred part of the face but consider this: there is lip art and eye art and tons of different forms of creative makeup, why is experimenting with brows so strange? shoutout to @popsugarbeauty, @huffpostwomen and @dailymail for making the best articles about this, go read them! and i can't thank you guys enough for your support, this feels unreal❤️ peacock feather brow: @cameleonfinland body paints, @katvondbeauty tattoo liner in Trooper, @anastasiabeverlyhills dipbrow pomade in Dark Brown, glue stick skin: @maccosmetics next to nothing Light Plus, pro longwear concealer in NC15 lower lid: @makeupstore Romantic Garden & Emerald eye pencils liner: @toofaced chocolate bar palette (Triple Fudge) lashes: @grimassuomi 325

Regular ol' feather brow

Dragon brow

☰DRAGON BROW☰ I don't know why my original caption disappeared but here's a second go 🤞 This is a weird brow look I did today. The eyelashes are by @elfcosmetics and they were a complete disaster - I definitely won't be purchasing these again but I was too lazy to change them today 😂I was inspired to do another fun, weird brow look after being inspired by the recent creations of @stella.s.makeup 😙 ***If you don't like this look, that's totally fine. It was a fun artsy-fartsy look so don't get your panties in a wad 😂 I do delete spam, rude, or useless comments in order to promote good conversation. Only good vibes are welcome here ✌ #dragonbrows #eotd #eyeoftheday #eyemakeup #eye #messy #featherbrows #eyebrows #beautytrends #cosmetics #fashion #fashionphotography #makeupartist #mua #glossyeyes #green #bblogger #makeupmafia #slave2beauty #lotd #motd #instamakeup #instabeauty #instaglam #glam #makeupporn #makeupbyme #colourpop #ilovemakeup #love
