Let’s Celebrate International Women’s Day with Iconic Brows Throughout History
Some say the eyes are the windows to the soul, but let’s be real—brows are the frame of the face. Throughout history, fierce, sculpted, and expressive eyebrows have been worn like crowns, telling stories of dominance, rebellion, and unapologetic confidence. This International Women’s Day, we’re tipping our hats (and raising our brows) to the women who didn’t just shape history—they bent beauty standards to their will.
Trailblazers of Iconic Brows
From ancient queens to modern divas, these women didn’t just raise the bar—they defined it.

Jenepher Reynolds: The Arch Architect
For Jenepher Reynolds, founder of Jenn of Arch, brows have never been just a trend—they’re a form of transformation. As a makeup artist with over two decades of experience, Jenepher has perfected the art of sculpting iconic brows and making it accessible for everyone.
But before she was shaping the brows of models and celebrities, her first beauty icon was closer to home—her Mum. Watching her mother’s effortless grace and confidence, Jenepher learned that beauty isn’t about trends—it’s about owning who you are, every single day.
That belief is the foundation of Jenn of Arch: delivering the tools and techniques to help you claim your power, one perfectly shaped brow at a time. Because when your brows are fierce, you move through the world differently—chin up, shoulders back, and with an energy that says, I’ve arrived.
The Future of Brows: Yours to Shape
Beauty standards shift, but one thing remains true: strong women write their own rules. Whether you love a dramatic, high-arched brow or a soft, natural frame, the power of choice is in your hands. This International Women’s Day, we honour the icons who redefined beauty, the women defining their own futures, and the brows that frame every moment of their journeys.
Here’s to the trailblazers—past, present, and future. And here’s to you, because your brows tell a story worth celebrating.
