Fashion's new It-brow? Bleached out entirely. Amy Francombe looks at how to pull off this season's vanishing act
Bye-bye brows: bring on the bleach

BRUSHED-UP, fuzzy brows have been replaced with a new It girl-approved look. Yes, the bleached brow is back (again) - and has become one of 2022's most widespread beauty trends, with A-listers and Gen Z alike erasing their arches in the name of high-fashion.

It's a look that cycles into style every few years each time causing a new generation to look permanently startled. Earlier this year Kendall Jenner and actress Maisie Williams debuted bleached brows at the Met Gala. At Marc Jacobs' autumn 2022 show, the entire cast of models - including Bella and Gigi Hadid - strutted down the catwalk with buffed-out brows; then came Kim Kardashian, who fronted Interview magazine with bleached-out brows, followed by Julia Fox who fronted ES's fashion issue in a similar vein. Musician Lizzo, socialite Amelia Gray - if you factor in all the TikTok influencers who are doing it, the list of women going sans brow is practically endless.

"I love how popular bleach brows have become," says Adessa Simpson, founder of The Go To brow salon. "I feel we were always told brows are everything they frame your face and lead your facial expressions. Now bleach brows add mystery and can enhance other facial features. It's like having a blank canvas to be creative."

The polar opposite of snowflake culture? That's why Stoicism is so popular

ONE of the oddest features of the culture right now is that the philosophy of Stoicism is a big thing. There's a group called Modern Stoicism which runs a Stoic Week, that asks participants to live like a Stoic and it turns out that it makes them feel good. In fact, living like a Stoic for a month is even better.
