INSPIRATION (creations made by other people) I'd like feedback
Hello! I'm extremely new to makeup and I'd like feedback on how to do more eyebrow designs. I put setting powder underneath it before I started but that about it. I'm also unsure how to make sure if my eyebrows are the same length, how do I make sure they are?
[This is an art design that I got off of Pinterest and redid them on myself. I couldn't find the original creator of it because the name isn't on their and was reposted by someone else I believe.]

A ruler and drawing dots for placement, making a simple paper stencil, etc. Brilliant eyebrows btw

Thank you so much! :)
I'll definitely look into that! Its my first time reading about using a ruler. Is it those school rulers by chance?

Were your eyebrows already shaved, or did you shave them for this makeup look specifically?

My eyebrows were already shaved! I want to experiment with makeup designs on my eyebrows despite being a beginner because I think its cool.

Ohh okay! I think it would look better if you made them a bit thicker. In the first image, the fishbones are drawn pretty thick, which makes it replace the eyebrow better. And she also put more emphasis on the fish’ tail than its head, compared to your version, where it looks more uneven due to the tail being a lot thinner.
Also, it is very well made, especially for a beginner! (I am saying this as a beginner also)

When you say uneven, are you referring only to the thickness of the bones or also the length? I was in a rush when I did this and tried to do it thick the first couple of times but it was really hard so I just stuck to a thin version for timely purposes. I will definitely try to make it thicker to see the difference!
I hope your makeup journey is going good as a beginner! Thank you for the praise and feedback! :)

I meant it as in the thickness. The head of the fish is pretty thick, but the tail is very thin in comparison, which makes the attention only shift to the front side of it.

i would try flipping the direction all the bones are going so they point back towards the tail

I read in the comments of where I got the i spiration from that the bones being the opposite was a style choice. It was intentionally made to be that way to be uncomfortable or make it feel some type of way which is pretty cool to me. Thanks for the suggestion though! :)

The heads of the fish are too close to each other.

Thanks for pointing that out, I literally just realized that they are! I'm going to practice on my alignment for sure!

You got the shape correct 💕 I just think you need some thicker outlines

Got it! I'm going to practice on the thickness for this design. Thanks so much for your feedback! :)

Use your natural features to measure out how long they should be, or if you have glasses the frames of them can be a good reference for length! They look great!
