Golden ratio eyebrow overlay device
View Patent ↗An overlay is superimposed over an image of a person's face. This overlay has a transparent portion separated from an opaque portion by a vertical edge, a nostril marker on the transparent first portion, and a mark centered along the edge indicating placement of a nose tip centered along the edge. The overlay has a first straight guide line in the transparent portion passing vertically through the nostril marker, a second straight guide line preferably at about a 40° angle from the first line passing through an outer edge of the nostril marker, and a third straight guide line at about a 38° angle from the first line passing through the person's nose tip to provide Golden Ratio orientation for the person's eyebrow. The overlay can be a decal or it may be electronically generated for superposition over an electronic image of a person's face.
1. A device comprising:
an overlay adapted to be superimposed over an image of a person's face;
the overlay having a transparent first portion separated from an opaque second portion by a vertical edge, a nostril marker on the transparent first portion, and a mark indicating placement of a nose tip centered along the edge;
a first straight guide line in the first portion passing vertically through the nostril marker;
a second straight guide line in the first portion at an angle from the first line passing through an outer edge of the nostril marker; and
a third straight guide line at an angle from the first line and spaced from the second line passing through the mark indicating the nose tip.
2. The device according to claim 1 wherein the angle between the first guide line and the second guide line is about 40 degrees.
3. The device according to claim 2 wherein the angle between the first guide line and the third guide line is about 38 degrees.
4. The device according to claim 1 wherein the angle between the first guide line and the third guide line is about 38 degrees.
5. The device according to claim 1 wherein the overlay is an electronic image overlay on an electronic display device.
6. The device according to claim 1 wherein the overlay is a plastic sheet that can be removably attached to a mirror surface.
7. The device according to claim 5 wherein the electronic display device is selected from the group consisting of a tablet computer, a cell phone, and a personal computer display.
8. A device comprising:
a first and a second overlay each adapted to be superimposed over an image of a person's face;
each of the overlays having a transparent first portion separated from an opaque second portion by a vertical edge, a nostril marker on the transparent first portion; and a mark indicating placement of a nose tip centered along the edge;
a first straight guide line in the first portion passing vertically through the nostril marker;
a second straight guide line in the first portion at an angle from the first line passing through an outer edge of the nostril marker; and
a third straight guide line at an angle from the first line and spaced from the second line passing through the mark indicating the nose tip.
9. The device according to claim 8 wherein the transparent portion of the first overlay is on the left of the second portion so that a right half of the image of the person's face is hidden when the first overlay is superimposed over the image.
10. The device according to claim 8 wherein the transparent portion of the second overlay is on the right of the second portion so that a left half of the image of the person's face is hidden when the second overlay is superimposed over the image.
11. The device according to claim 8 wherein the angle between the first guide line and the second guide line is about 40 degrees.
12. The device according to claim 11 wherein the angle between the first guide line and the third guide line is about 38 degrees.
13. The device according to claim 8 wherein the angle between the first guide line and the third guide line is about 38 degrees.
14. The device according to claim 8 wherein each overlay is an electronic image overlay on an electronic display device.
15. The device according to claim 14 wherein the electronic display device is selected from the group consisting of a tablet computer, a cell phone, and a personal computer display.
16. The device according to claim 8 wherein each overlay is a plastic sheet that can be removably attached to a mirror surface.
17. A device comprising:
a first and a second overlay each adapted to be superimposed over an image of a person's face;
each of the overlays having a transparent first portion separated from an opaque second portion by a vertical edge, a nostril marker on the transparent first portion; and a mark indicating placement of a nose tip centered along the edge;
a first straight guide line in the first portion passing vertically through the nostril marker;
a second straight guide line in the first portion at an acute angle from the first line passing through an outer edge of the nostril marker; and
a third straight guide line at an acute angle from the first line and spaced from the second line passing through the mark indicating the nose tip.
18. The device according to claim 17 wherein the transparent portion of the first overlay is on the left of the second portion so that a right half of the image of the person's face is hidden when the first overlay is superimposed over the image.
19. The device according to claim 17 wherein the transparent portion of the second overlay is on the right of the second portion so that a left half of the image of the person's face is hidden when the second overlay is superimposed over the image.
20. The device according to claim 17 wherein the second guide line is at an angle of about 40 degrees from the first guide line and the third guide line is at an angle of about 38 degrees from the first guide line.
