The aesthetician-turned-brow-artist is the original eyebrow influencer, who&#8217;s Golden Ratio brow shaping equation has quite literally changed the facial structure of millions.<\/p>\n<p>Her deft technique and revolutionary approach was translated into Anastasia Beverly Hills, a beauty brand that started with brows, but has come to dominate every single makeup category. Now in its 25th year (!), it&#8217;s seen iconic products like Dip Brow, Brow Wiz and Brow Freeze fly off shelves, and has changed the at-home brow game for the better.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate the milestone, GRAZIA had the opportunity to chat with Soare about all she&#8217;s achieved, changing brow trends (and there&#8217;s been plenty) as well as the industry at large. Open, honest and refreshingly down to Earth, you&#8217;ll find Soare&#8217;s musings below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"price-style\">read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/virtual-brow-appointment-anastasia-beverly-hills\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">INSIDE MY ZOOM BROW APPOINTMENT WITH ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_215980\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-215980\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-215980\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/GettyImages-1134508797.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-215980\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">MILAN, ITALY &#8211; MARCH 08: CEO and founder of Anastasia Beverly Hills, Anastasia Soare poses for portraits session At Sephora Milano Duomo on March 08, 2019 in Milan, Italy.

How are you celebrating?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANASTASIA: <\/strong>25 years! It\u2019s been an absolute dream. Whenever I log onto Instagram, I\u2019m blown away by our community. We have millions of individuals around the world sharing their creativity and unique sense of self. It\u2019s an everyday inspiration, and I plan to celebrate 25 years of ABH by uplifting the artists and beauty lovers who support our mission.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"price-style\"><strong>GRAZIA: So much has changed in that timeframe, in beauty and in brows&#8230; but your golden ratio still stands. Why do you think this is? <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANASTASIA: <\/strong>Our ethos is that beauty is about balance and proportion \u2013 not perfection. This started with the development of the Golden Ratio Technique: three steps that tailor brows to your unique face and bone structure. Personalised brows are instantly more flattering, but in a way where no one can pinpoint exactly what\u2019s different. Properly shaped and filled arches make you look alert, rested, and even take years off the face. Even now, every product we launch is inspired by makeup\u2019s unique ability to create the illusion of facial balance, symmetry, and proportion. Ultimately, beauty is just about finding what works for you, not conforming to a homogenised ideal.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"price-style\"><strong>GRAZIA: On that note, the last 25 years have been huge for brows \u2014 we\u2019ve gone from skinny supermodel brows to full and feathered. What&#8217;s been your observations on the evolution?\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANASTASIA: <\/strong>Beauty has seen such tremendous growth for the individual. For a long time, there had been such a one-size-fits-all mentality for what was considered fashionable, and everyone subscribed to that \u2014 even if it meant that it didn\u2019t suit them personally. I think today the definition of beauty carries with it a breath of fresh air, a fluidity, and most importantly, an individuality. Anastasia Beverly Hills was built on the foundation that brows are personalised to each person\u2019s bone structure, and that this individuality is what creates harmony and proportion. People are now making beauty their own \u2014 what\u2019s best for their features, their skin tone, their particular aesthetic. Trends will continue to rise and fall, but I\u2019m seeing a surge for letting individualised beauty shine through.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CYCDsqdOF-R\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Is it with celebrities, makeup artists, social media, or brow artists? Maybe a mix?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANASTASIA: <\/strong>All of the above. Beauty trends bubble up from the current vernacular, and they sway in and out of fashion like all other trends. My recommendation is to play with styling and product application but anchor your brow shape on the Golden Ratio for brows sure to suit your face. And even if razor thin brows come back into style \u2013 don\u2019t over-tweeze! As those of us who lived through the 90s can tell you, the hair doesn\u2019t always come back.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"price-style\">GRAZIA: Can you share a few insights around some of your best-selling products over the years?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANASTASIA: <\/strong>Our best performing products became community favourites because they were filling a niche within the market. When I started, no one was creating products for brows and a kit for contouring hadn\u2019t been assembled. I look at what the community may need, and work to give them something new and innovative. Recently, this has manifested into the creation of Brow Freeze for activator-free laminated brows and an ultra-inclusive 50 shade range of Luminous Foundation.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CcIuAwfJsQZ\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

I truly believe that makeup has the transformative power to truly affect someone\u2019s life. Customers are essentially inviting us into their homes, their routines, the way they choose to present themselves to the world. It\u2019s a very intimate experience, and I\u2019m so proud that ABH gets to be a part of that for so many people.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"price-style\">GRAZIA: What\u2019s the single biggest professional takeaway you can share with us?<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ANASTASIA: <\/strong>Stay committed to quality, and never launch anything you\u2019re not in love with yourself. People remember how you treat them, the quality of what you\u2019ve recommended and created. Put your consumer first and make sure they know that you have their best interests in mind. Give them something they need and love from the beginning, because you never get the opportunity for a second first impression. I still personally test every new batch of brow products to ensure that the formula remains consistent with what our community has come to expect.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CXeHQTvFdZg\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
