Easiest way to look polished is to groom your eyebrows correctly. Not to mention it’s like giving your face a mini face-lift.
I have been shaping eyebrows for years. What I find most women do is over pluck and have poorly shaped eyebrows. “It is hard to be objective to yourself.” I tell this to women all the time as I point out their eyebrow mistakes.
As women get older they notice changes in their face and their eyes. They are striving to create a more open youthful look to their eyes by plucking and over arching their eyebrows. By over doing this, their eyes tend to look hollow.
I tell my clients all the time that “you need the frame of your eyebrows to give a more youthful look as the brows pick up the eye area, which is like a mini face-lift.”
Study the brows of children and young people. What you’ll find is that they have a natural strong brow, which creates a nice frame for their eyes.
I know some have too much brow and others too little. Even for those who lack the hair in this brow region, there are things you can do to give the illusion of a prominent brow.
Let’s continue for now with some how-to’s
How to find your arch
Take a look at the upper part of your brows, see the highest point, it will be directly above where your arch should fall. If you have straight brows above, another trick is to look straight ahead and the outer edge of the pupils, draw a line straight above and there your arch will be.
How to Clean and Shape
Tweeze the obvious hairs outside the line and under the arch. Another trick is to take an orange cuticle stick, stand it up along side of your nose to the brow area, this is where the brow should begin (anything outside of it, tweeze away). Again take the cuticle stick and slant from the bottom of your eye to the outer brow area, this is where the brow should end (anything outside of it, tweeze away). You can use the cuticle stick for finding the arch too, see the outer iris of your eye, hold up cuticle stick from there to the brow and viola there is your arch!
Lack the hairs? Here is the cure!
Not all have the natural full brow hair thing going on, but today there are so many things available to fill in and create a natural full brow.
My personal favorite is a powder base shadow. Use a short angle stiff brush.
Choose a color one shade lighter than your hair color; otherwise it will look too dramatic. Some of these eyebrow shadows have a wax to tame and give more glide and control. These work well too.
Pencils not exactly the natural look, but is quick. I find it gives too harsh a line. Brow shadows allow you more control and a natural look.
Permanent Makeup is permanent, so be sure that you find someone that is good and look at their work. The work I have seen in the past can be very artificial looking. Choose wisely.
Do trim the eyebrows when hairs get wiry and out of control. Just use a small cuticle scissors and an eye brow brush, brush upward and trim what is long.
