Eyebrows in Animal Crossing New Horizons – Customization

So, maybe you’ve seen some people kicking around with things like scars, blush, freckles, and the creme de la creme of facial customization – eyebrows in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. However, you may have noticed that you can’t get any Nook Miles templates for eyebrows, nor can you actually get any item that even looks remotely like an eyebrow. You don’t even have an option to give yourself eyelashes separately from how eyes work in the game, you know? It’s a hard life out here. However, crafty players have found a way to give themselves eyebrows in Animal Crossing New Horizons. 

You might have heard of something called facepaint. How this works is, you can create custom patterns using the Custom Design Pro Editor (purchasable for 800 Nook Miles from the Nook Stop). Once you’ve got these saved, you can then put them on your face as facepaint. And yes, you guessed it. If you design yourself some eyebrows, you’ll be able to then wear them as facepaint to complete your otherwise bare forehead. Why not give it a go? Tumblr user Bramble’s Crossing has created a post about their eyebrows and they look pretty cute – we’ve linked it here if you want to check it out
