Change-Your-Life Beauty Tip: A Little Trick to Faking Perfect Bone Structure

I had a makeup artist try a little trick on me recently I never ever thought of doing before that made my eyebrows look higher, my eyes look wider and my face overall look more chiseled—and it wasn’t shading!

After he filled in my brows, we went back with a highlighter and traced the line above them. Above? “What is this madness?” I asked. Well, he explained that putting highlighter under your brows is great for opening your eyes, but putting a swipe of them above them makes them look tidier, exaggerates line your browbone and overall opens your face in yet another way.

The difference was subtle, but it did have an impact. So I might just starting adding it to my going-out routine. I mean, who doesn’t want their bone structure to look better? Great bone structure rules.
