Eyebrows 101

Who knew back in the day when we were over tweezing, that eyebrows would become the "thing" in days to come.  If we only knew...

Here is a short Eyebrows 101 with some basics to help if you are working towards having perfect brows.

Tweezing a soft natural shape is the goal; eyebrows that are too thick or too thin can take away from the rest of your face.  Follow these steps to create beautiful eyebrows.

1. Draw on the shape you want with an eyebrow or lip pencil, following the natural growth as much as possible. Take your time with this step, repeating it until you get the look you want.

2. Tweeze hairs that fall outside the brow you penciled on. Use rounded or needle-nose tweezers for accurate removal.

3. Brush eyebrow hairs straight up with an old toothbrush.

4. Trim hairs that are too long with a small pair of scissors.

5. To keep brows in place, smooth the hairs with an old mascara wand and then apply brow gel or clear mascara, or spray the mascara wand with hair spray and then comb it through the brows.


We are so lucky to have an array of products on the market now to help us create beautiful brows including brow mascara, brow powders, and eyebrow pomade that come in many different shades.
