Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

After eyebrows got bleached, shaved or not paid attention to at all by designers, they seem to be back with a bang: bold shapes and bright colors even made them the facial focus in some cases.

Balenciaga dyed models' brows in neon orange and green, Topshop Unique glued furry monobrows to their faces, and Armani's makeup artist, Linda Cantello created a second pair of eyebrows right underneath the natural ones, using grey and pink lip pencils.

While these looks might not exactly prove wearable, there were also labels such as Prada that settled for drawn-on, bushy-looking brows. Pat McGrath, responsible for the label's makeup, had bleached the eyebrows for the two preceding seasons, so her move to paint them on this time could particularly hint at a growing trend.

At Cristiano di Cristiano Burani, the trend took even softer forms, with the brows being filled in with dark color, causing them to look bolder but in a more natural way.
