Perfect brows in just four steps

Filling in my eyebrows is a must for me, a strong brow is my trademark look.  Filling in your eyebrows defines yours face, makes your make up look complete and it also enhances your eyes. 

"you must never underestimate the power of the eyebrow" – Jack Black


Start off with tamed brows! Try and wax or tweeze your eyebrows often so they keep their shape.  I personally get my brows waxed once every 6-8 weeks and I tweeze them in between to keep the shape. 

If your brows are naturally light dying them will make them stand out a little more.  You can buy home dye kits from Boots and Superdrug, just make sure you follow the instructions correctly so you don't end up with dyed skin.

Items I used;
Spoolie 
Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil in 001 dark brown
MAC Eye Shadow in Coquette
MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle


 
1) Outline the outer part of your brows with an eyebrow pencil. 

2) Fill in 3/4 of your brows with either an eye shadow or an eyebrow pencil leaving the inner part of your brows bare.  I use a wet real technique’s brow brush and MAC eye shadow in Coquette.  The wet brush dampens the eye shadow just enough to make it easier to apply and to create a sharp brow without using the concealer method.

3) With a clean angled brush feather out the eye shadow or pencil into the inner part of your brows to reduce the harshness of the line.  If you want your brows to look more natural keep brushing them through with a clean spoolie.

4) Add a highlight on your brow bone!  Highlighting the brow bone creates an illusion and draws light to the areas which creates the appearance of a lifted brow.  I personal favourites are MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle or MAC eye shadow in Nylon.
