We can all agree that eyebrows are definitely one of the most expressive facial features. That's why more and more women are turning to various cosmetic procedures to achieve the dream shape of their brows. However, there are simpler techniques to correct this. In this article we will tell you tips and tricks on how you can make up your eyebrows with a lifting effect!
Over the years, various brow trends have come and gone - from super thin arches to heavily thickened to discolored. While these trends are very different, they all show that eyebrows have become another way to express yourself with makeup. Here are the steps you should follow to be able to make up your eyebrows with a lifting effect and achieve their dream shape!
Applying make-up to eyebrows with a lifting effect – what should you pay attention to?
After years of literally ignoring our eyebrows, we now know how important they are to our appearance. In addition, we not only learn how to care for them, but also how to make them up properly.
And since naturalness is at the heart of fashion trends in 2023, remember that you have two goals with makeup - to enhance it and to harmonize it with your face. Otherwise, it can look tired and aged – if your brows are too thick and floppy – or stiff – if they are too high and thin. But there is good news: applying eyebrow makeup with a lifting effect is easier than you think. Makeup artist Kevin Kodra shows how to do it in a TikTok video!
Here's how to recreate Bella Hadid's face lift look
Bella Hadid is one of today's beauty icons with a lifted, feline look thanks to her very open, arched eyebrows. How can you create the same effect without having to resort to extreme changes? Makeup artist Kevin Kodra reveals the model's eyebrow hack in TikTok! See how easy it is to achieve an eyebrow lift with makeup!

As you can see in the video, Kodra already has beautifully combed-up brows. This is a basic requirement and the first thing you should do. He draws our attention to the fact that his natural eyebrow slopes slightly downward on one side, making the eye look more closed and hidden. This effect occurs when makeup is applied according to the natural shape of the eyebrow. In order to make up your eyebrows with a lifting effect, it is necessary to apply the pencil at the end of the brow more horizontally, without following the position of the natural hairs. This will make your eyes immediately appear lifted and more open, with just one simple trick.
It is no coincidence that many ladies choose to completely depilate the end of the eyebrow to make it appear as high as possible. Although this is a more radical solution, just by simply applying makeup and removing some hair you can see a big difference and an immediate lifting effect.

Brow Lifting with Makeup – Don’t miss this trick as a finishing touch
To further emphasize the brow lift already achieved with makeup, apply highlighter under the arches. This will give your brows even more height and dimension!
Tipp: It is also recommended to use an eyebrow gel to fix the hairs upwards so that the lifting effect lasts all day (or all night). Here are some recommended products for this purpose:
- Valentino Beauty Brow Trio Eyebrow Pencil: The trio liner is a multitasking tool for your eyebrows that you need in your cosmetic bag as soon as possible. It consists of an eyebrow brush, a pencil and a liquid micro-liner that allows you to create realistic, hair-like strokes.
- Maybelline New York Tattoo Studio Brow Lift Stick: As the name suggests, this brow stick is specifically designed to lift and shape your brows. Brush them into shape with the end of the brush, then color the brow hairs and fill them in with the wax pencil. Finally, go over your brows again with the brush to lift them to the maximum.
- Lancôme Sourcils Styler Brow Gel: Use it to condition and set your brows. With a hairbrush-inspired applicator, the lightweight gel formula coats every hair for fuller-looking brows.
