Front view - Eyes and brows
Eyebrow tilt
The upward tilt of the line from the inner brow to the brow peak. A modest upward tilt is conventionally preferred; flat or downward-tilted brows read heavier, while very steep tilts look exaggerated.
What counts as ideal
The ideal band differs by sex for this measurement: 6.5 deg to 11.0 deg for men and 10.2 deg to 15.5 deg for women. A reading anywhere inside the band scores a full 10.
Male ideal
6.5 deg to 11.0 deg
Female ideal
10.2 deg to 15.5 deg
How it is scored
Everything inside the band scores 10, and the penalty accelerates the further a reading falls outside it rather than dropping off a cliff at the edge. For the male band, the falloff is measured against bounds of -1.3 deg and 18.1 deg: a reading out at either of those has spent its full allowance and scores about 3. The curve keeps going past them, so an extreme reading still separates from a merely poor one.
Eyebrow tilt is one of 67 measurements in the harmony pillar. No single measurement decides a face: each one contributes its own shortfall to a weighted mean, and one hopeless measurement costs a full measurement's worth and never more.
