5 Tips for Perfect Eyebrows

Eyebrows make or break a person’s face, so you better get ‘em right! Here are some tips on how to create the perfect brow:

Do Not Over Pluck!

Gone are the days of having eyebrows so thin that one hair follows the next. Forget the thin or thick brow trends- always go with your natural brow shape.  Never pluck above (unless you have a wandering stray) and just pluck out the stray hairs underneath, leaving your natural arch.

Do Not Wax

Okay, you can go get your eyebrows waxed by a professional once, but only as a guide to get the perfect shape. Waxing your eyebrows pulls on the sensitive thin skin above your eye.  If you continue to wax, it will eventually result in potentially saggy lids.

Right Between the Eye(brows)

Do not pluck a huge space between your two eyebrows — your brow should not start any further in than 0.5 cm before the inner corner of your eye. Too many people keep going, giving the illusion of mega wide set eyes (not in a  good way).

Trim the Long Ends

Using a comb, brush your eyebrows straight up — trim anything that sticks up over the top of your brow.

Fair brows? Shade ‘em In!

Even if your eyebrows have the perfect arch, for those of you who are fair, that arch may be hard to see. Eyebrow pencils leave a harsh line that can be noticeable to others. The best bet is to buy an eye shadow that is close to your hair color; use an angled brush and apply using quick strokes within the brow. This is also great if you over plucked and need to fill in some gaps, giving the illusion of full brows.
