Eyebrows 101
Your eyebrows are the top of the frame of your face. By their shape and style, they can highlight your eyes, make you look more awake and refreshed and, even take a few years off your appearence. Follow this simple steps to a beautiful eyebrows! (As shown in Allure-Sept '04 Issue)
1. To ensure that your brow pencil looks natural, select a shade the matches or is slightly lighter than your natural hair color - except for fair blondes, who should get a shade or two darker.
2. Use a brow brush or a lash comb to brush brow hair up and out. Use the pencil in short, feathered strokes to fill in any gaps or spaces. The pencil will also thicken the hairs a little to provide a fuller appearance. If you have thin brows, you may not desire a fuller look, so only use the pencil to fill in any space you may have as sparingly as possible.
3. After brows are combed, you can see if there are any unrulky hairs that need to be removed. Remember, line your finger on the side of your nose from the inside corner of your eye (brow should not go onto the bridge of the nose inside that "line") and then upwards from the outside corner of your eye (brow should not extend outward from that point). Remember, too, that the high point of your arch should be parallel to the outside edge of your iris - not your pupil. Use a pair of slanted, preferably stainless steel, tweezers to pluck any unwanted hairs.
4. Define brows by brushing on brow powder (for fair hair and brunettes), or even an eyeshadow (for dark hair).
5. When travelling or extremely active, use a tinted or clear gel for brows to keep them in place.
