In this pictorial by Paco Serinelli titled 'Vicky Vicious 2008,' [tiny gemstones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fabled-gemgel) are placed just under the model's eyebrows to highlight the brow bone. Typically, a light or [shimmery eyeshadow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gogo-cooling-shimmer-eyeshadow-stick) is used for this effect, but in this case a bit of bling takes this look to the extreme.
