Ugly Brows

The first thing I notice in a woman when i first meet them are thier brows. I cannot stand to see a woman with ugly or undefined brows. Getting a pair of beautiful eyebrows is one of the most useful makeup trick on the planet. Many women overlook their eyebrows, or sometimes even worse, overpluck them. Then when there's nothing left to work with, they draw it magnificently with a brow pencil leaving them look like a dollar-store mannequinn. When it comes to eye makeup, the eyebrows make an important impression. They frame the eye and give the face a polished look. It is well worth making the effort to get the eyebrows looking right.

So here goes some useful tips in getting that defined polished look:

Tweeze and Shape

Begin by shaping and cleaning up area in between brows. Use tweezers to pluck stray hairs. Be careful not to remove any hair beyond the inner corner of the eye.


Brush into Shape
Brush brow hairs with a toothbrush-style brush to comb brow hairs updward into place for a groomed, polished look. You can even use an old tooth-brush if you wish.

Pump up and Fill In

Define brows using a powder Eye Shadow (match it to your hair color) applied with the eye brow brush. I suggest using Bare Minerals powder for your eye powder shadow. The powder is the next best thing that's happened to me. Its very easy to use, no hassles at all. Use the eye definer brush if you have sparse brows. To apply shadow, begin at the inner corner of the brow and follow its natural shape using light, feathery strokes.





Viola! You are all set to go.
**************************
Tip of the Day - If your eyebrow color is shouting or too loud, no need to clean it up and start all over again, just press some loose powder onto the brows with a powder puff.

Heyyy i love this blog already, i'm into everything beauty. I agree with you on the eyebrows being an important part of a womans beauty. If you're scared u wont do it right, get it done professionally. I do the threading thing cos it lasts longer aand then since its not really full, i use macs eyebrow filler, works well.
