Bleached eyebrows, a popular trend from the 90s
Bleached eyebrows are a favorite retro look that celebrities have revived in the last couple of years. They are eyebrows that are lightened or bleached to the point of even appearing invisible at first glance. They can be thin, thick, long or short, the important thing is to apply a bleach that makes them disappear.
Although Madonna went so far as to bleach them a couple of shades higher than her hair color, celebrities are currently playing with the contrast generated by dark hair versus a blonde eyebrow, which injects a touch of gothic glamour to their styling.
Along with this trend, it is common to see minimal makeup and an ultra-feminine outfit; although there is really no rule, as the same could be attempted with a more daring or avant-garde outfit.
