Erin O'Connor likes natural eyebrows

Erin O' Connor regrets waxing her eyebrows so much.

The supermodel says she always felt pressured to tame her eyebrows by make-up artists in the past but has now learnt to accept her natural look.

She said: "I've allowed too many make-up artists to wax my eyebrows! I've decided that I'm meant to look Neanderthal. There's something comforting about furry eyebrows."

While the 33-year-old beauty loves being a model she insists she doesn't take fashion too seriously.

She told Stylist magazine: "I don't try to live a life away from modelling as such - I'm still excitable over fashion. But there's a cut-off point. I think it's important you embrace a character at work so you can keep hold of reality. When I leave a shoot, I brush out my hair and take off my make-up. There have been many frantic Tube rides home with the wet wipes. I'll go home and put on more make-up which seems silly, but it's self-preservation; it's my version of me."
