You won't believe what women are doing to their brows now

Updated

We've now warmed to the idea of a metallic lip and brow, thanks to the talents of makeup artist Pat McGrath and her legions of model and celebrity muses crushing it on Instagram. But if the runways and Pinterest have anything to say about brows, there's a new, more aggressive trend to know about. Yep, bold, colored brows are officially in—specifically the purple, pink, and blue varieties. While we're still on the fence about the look, far be it from us to stand in the way of the daring. Below, examples of how to try the playful trend while maintaining an air of sophistication.
