The One Beauty Insecurity Emma Watson Used To Have & You Won't Believe It

Emma Watson has to be one of the most wonderfully intelligent, engaging and beautiful young women in the world. Having made her mark in Harry Potter and speaking so eloquently about feminism and what it means to her, Watson comes across as having boundless confidence, an impressive feat for any young woman.

However, she recently revealed that she too has insecurities. In an interview with Gloria Steinem, Watson confessed that she used to hate her eyebrows. Yep, she actually hated those wonderful bushy brows! "I used to hate that I had strong eyebrows. As a nine-year-old I desperately wanted to pluck them and make them two thin lines."

Thin eyebrows used to be the go-to, which led to a whole lot of over-plucking. But thank fuck Watson's mother stepped in and stopped her taking the tweezers to her brows. "My mother desperately tried to tell me that they gave my face character, don't be ashamed."

How right she was! Now Emma Watson is known for her signature dark brows. We would even consider her brow goals for life.
