10.4 million people live in Sweden — that’s just 2 million more than in New York City alone. But this country has just as many surprises as countries with larger populations. Maybe even more.
We at Bright Side love finding out how people in other countries live. And Sweden won over our hearts.

Meghan Markle Subtly Transformed Her Look, but Many Have Missed the Detail She Changed
Meghan Markle’s sense of style whenever she steps out publicly is impeccable. It’s understandable why, as she needs to meet very high standards. However, while all eyes are usually on Meghan during official trips and events, she made a small tweak to her look that only few noticed.

Images released on and around January 2024, show Meghan with a radiant glow and noticeably fuller, fluffier brows, which marks a departure from the over-plucked eyebrow trend of the ’90s she used to be a fan of.
Yana Gushchina, founder of beauty hotspot Browfique, unveiled the secret behind Meghan’s enhanced eyebrows―a technique called powdering. This method, which is a semi-permanent makeup technique, is known for its ombre effect and soft powder finish, and it results in natural-looking, well-defined brows.
