Since her engagement to Prince Harry, Meghan Markle has become one of the major influencers in the fashion and cosmetics sector. Among the trends launched by the new Duchess we have for example the freckles, which dot her face and which all try to reproduce through colored pencils or tattoos. This summer, at Royal Ascot, it was le very defined eyebrows by Mrs Markle, obtained through a beauty technique which has been nicknamed Brow Setter taking inspiration from Breakfast at Tiffany’s movie icon Audrey Hepburn.
Natural, thick and well defined, Meghan’s Audrey Brows was created by brows stylist Sherrille Riley: Her eyebrows are straight, but they are raised in the final part, just like Hepburn’s. In an interview, the beautician Riley explained how he worked on the Duchess’s eyebrows: starting from the technique of threading, or hair removal with thread (which involves the removal of hair through cotton threads intertwined with each other to pull the hairs at the root), the stylist used the tweezers to redefine the arches and make them more orderly. Later, he used a coloured pencil from the earth color and then conclude with the illuminant under the arch and the eyebrow fixing gel.
