Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: The eyebrow shapes are potent signs of facial recognition, expression, and emotional status. The morphological expression of the eyebrows plays a vital role in communicating an image when applying cosmetics. The purpose of this research was to offer the application of eyebrow makeup by providing a standardized shape to typical eyebrows of adult women.
Methods: This research measured the eyebrow shapes and colors of 300 women in their 20s and 30s in Korea. The measurement data were used to identify the typical eyebrow forms that represented women’s eyebrows.
Results: The average width of the eyebrows was 49.7 (±3.6) mm, the average thickness was 8.1 (±1.4) mm, and the average peak of the eyebrow arch was 1.78 (±0.9) mm, respectively. The color value of the eyebrows is the average L* 59.5, a* 4.25, b* 8.72. We divided female eyebrows into four varieties: standard, straight, upward, and soft or harsh angles.
Conclusions: This discovery shows that different eyebrow forms can be assessed and modified to fit the standard type.
Additionally, by using these measurements, eyebrow makeup’s aesthetic design can be enhanced.
