Where Were All the Eyebrows at the Oscars?

Get the Full StoryThe days of conventional beauty looks are long gone, and the 2025 Oscars red carpet was no exception. The night was filled with history-making moments, including Zoe Salda a becoming the first Dominican-American to win an Academy Award, and celebrities came dressed for the occasion. We're talking elegant updos sported by Lupita Ny'ongo and Elle Fanning and some bob haircut action, as seen on Selena Gomez and Halle Berry. While a handful of stars stuck to the basics, others leaned into one of the most experimental beauty trends of the year: invisible eyebrows.

Since it first became mainstream again nearly four years ago thanks to stars like Doja Cat, A-listers have been embracing the barely-there brow look through either thin, half-shaved, or bleached brows, proving there truly are no rules when it comes to beauty. While the trend constitutes a revival of thin brows that ruled the '90s and early 2000s, interpretations paraded at this year's Oscars were even more referential. No-brow connoisseurs like Cynthia Erivo stuck to her signature fully-shaved look with bold lashes and eyeliner elevating her radiant skin, while Miley Cyrus debuted a fresh pair of bleached brows to accompany her sculpted long waves, bronzy eyes, and glossy lips.

Others like Ariana Grande and Doja Cat chose a more subtle approach, with the latter showcasing extremely thin brows and the left one half-shaved. Meanwhile, the "Wicked" actor and singer donned a softer version of Cyrus's bleached look, with both being lightly filled in, effortlessly complementing her dainty pink-themed makeup.

In case you've been contemplating a brow transformation, take a look at the best nonexistent and barely-there brow looks from the 2025 Oscars ahead.
