If you’ve over plucked your brows in the past you may have noticed that they don’t always grow back as nicely as one would like. Luckily there are some great brow powders on the market. I prefer brow powders to the hard brow pencils because they look more natural. Check out my Universal Brow Powder, Chanel Brow Powder, Clinique Brow Shaper, Shavata Brow Perfection Box and Body Shop Brow Powder Pencil. The following techniques will help correct and define even the sparsest of brows.
My Universal Brow Powder and double ended brush will work wonders on sparse eyebrows.
- To find the most flattering shape for your eyes, use the pencil test which will tell you where your brows should start and end.
- Starting on the right side, place a pencil vertically along the side of your nose past your eyebrow.
- Next place the pencil diagonally from the edge of your nostril to the outer corner of the eye.
- Your brows should arch gradually, starting over the pupil. Looking directly into the mirror place the pencil vertically along the outer part of your iris. Now repeat on the left side.
- Using a brow brush start by brushing your eyebrows down (I know this sounds odd but it works). Then using an angled edge brush dipped into your chosen Brow Powder, go lightly along the top of the brows.
- Brush eyebrows back up. You’ll see an immediate difference. You can now fill in the gaps from underneath using the same technique. Finish with a brush of Brow Gel to seal.
If you are wanting to get your brows to grow again then I have just been let into a great little secret… There is a new product that is being launched in June by a new company called Eye Candy. It is an eyelash and eyebrow grow accelerator called LASH XLerator. I have heard some great things about it so check it out.
And finally if your brows are really past the growing or fill in stage, I have seen some terrific brow tattoos. In the past I would never have suggested this course of action because they really looked false but now with the new types of pigments brows are looking good.
I hope this helps achieve gorgeous looking brows!
Until next time,
