From wonder serums to nip-and-tucks, there are countless ways to tackle the signs of ageing in 2019 - but one expert has claimed the secret to a youthful face could be in the brows.
Dubbed 'facelift brows', the look is surprisingly simple to pull off and when done correctly can bring 'structure and lift' to your complexion according to celebrity makeup artist Sara Hill.
So can a pair of perfect brows really give you an instant face lift? Armed with a bar of Dove soap and a set of instructions, Femail put the technique to the test on London-based journalist Fabiana Cacace, 24.
We started by applying a soap-covered spoolie brush to Fabiana's brows in an upwards motion, before waiting ten minutes for the soap (Dove Original Beauty Cream Bar, £1.85 for 2x100g) to set them in place.
Can 'facelift brows' really give your face the appearance of structure and lift? Journalist Fabiana Cacace, 24 (before, left) put it to the test with the process taking just 20 minutes (after right). She used a bar of Dove soap, a spoolie, two eyebrow pencils and a highlighter
Next, we filled in the arches using a thin, dark brown brow pencil (we used Chelsea Boutique's All Day Brown Pencil, £20) - taking care to 'lift' them out towards the temple for that all-important lift.
We then filled in the centre of the brows using a slightly darker shade (Rimmel's Brow This Way Fibre pencil in Dark Brown, £4.99) - attempting an ombre look - and brushed the brows into shape, taking care not to make them look too 'groomed'.
To give even more lift, we then applied a small amount of highlighter (Nip+Fab Liquid Gold Highlighter in Rose Gold, £12.95) underneath and on the inner corners of the brows, before applying extra highlighter on the cheekbones.
Glasgow-born makeup artist Sara Hill - who has worked with the likes of Grace Jones and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley - says her technique can be achieved in five simple steps and will help bring a more youthful look for skin.
Speaking exclusively to FEMAIL, she said: 'As we age, very often our brows become sparser, and this can be an immediate giveaway of our ages.
The first step was to apply a wet spoolie covered with cream soap to the brows, to fix them into place (pictured). Women trying at home should hold them up 'like you’ve had a fright' according to celebrity makeup artist Sara Hill, who masterminded the look
Step one involved grooming the brows with a spoolie and a bar of soap, so after applying the paste Fabiana waited for ten minutes to let them set (pictured)
After the soap has set, the next step is to fill in the arches of a brow using a pencil. We then filled in the centre of the brows using a slightly darker shade (Rimmel's Brow This Way Fibre pencil in Dark Brown, pictured) - attempting an ombre look - and brushed the brows into shape
The final step is to apply highlighter to the brow bones (pictured) and inner corner. We used Nip+Fab Liquid Gold Highlighter in Rose Gold, £12.95 to give the appearance of a lift
THE VERDICT
Fabiana said: 'I have quite dark brows so I normally don't do anything to them, and don't use any products.
'I really like the final result. It's very different from my usual look, it gives my face a "lift" and the soap really helps to keep them in place.
'I wouldn't normally use highlighter but it really makes my eyes pop. It's a bit high-maintenance for an everyday look but I'd definitely try it again for a night out.'

Facelift brows, as seen on one of Sara's models, can be achieved in five simple steps and will help bring a more youthful look for skin - starting with a clean mascara brush
Glasgow-born Sara - who has worked with the likes of Grace Jones and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley - says the technique can be achieved in five simple steps and will help bring a more youthful look for skin.
Speaking exclusively to FEMAIL, she said: 'As we age, very often our brows become sparser, and this can be an immediate giveaway of our ages.
'Just a simple fill with powder can make all the difference – however, there is a way that you can manipulate the shape and height of the brows completely, which can totally change the look of your face and take years off. I call this technique the Facelift Brow.'
How to master facelift brows by celebrity beauty guru Sara Hill
Step One
'Start by using a bar of soap, the cheaper the better! Dampen a clean mascara brush (a spoolie), and rub the brush into the soap, creating a creamy texture, you don’t want it to be too wet.
'Run the brush through the brows in upward strokes, pulling the brows directly upright (like you’ve had a fright!) Leave this to set. This is an old drag queen makeup trick, which makes the brows flat and keeps them in place, like glue.'
Step Two
'You want to fill in the arch of the brow with a skinny brow pencil. Ensure it’s either the same colour to or a little darker than your natural brow shade. You need to draw your arches a little higher, and then pull them back towards your temples a little – this will make your face look more lifted, and therefore more youthful.'

Step Three
'Fill in the brows with your pencil, making sure that you don’t draw too heavily in the centre. You should try to create more of an ombre look, graduating from the front of the brows down through the arches and to the tips.
'Groom the brows into shape, but remember to keep the hairs a little more upright, rather than brushing flat and to the side.'
Step Four
'Apply a radiant highlighter under the eyebrow, on the brow bones, to open the eyes and create lift. You can also smudge a small amount of highlighter in the inner corner.'
Step Five
'As an additional way to sculpt and lift the face, apply your highlighter a little higher on the cheekbones, closer to the brows than usual. You can also apply blush a little higher too; this technique will lengthen and lift the shape of the face, creating a smoother and more youthful finished look.'

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
