Brows 101 Pt. 2

In the last post you learned how to shape your eyebrows. Here, I'll be showing you how to perfect your brow.

Step 1: Fill them in!

Start with your inner brow. (Start in the point showed in the picture above) Use your eyebrow pen or pencil to draw in the hair. Do not draw your eyebrows by drawing one long continuos line. Draw the same direction as your hair grows.

Keep filling in your eyebrows by drawing in hair going up to the arch. (find your arch using the photo above) Fill in between the hair of your brows to make your brows looks fuller.

Go down to the tip of your brow. (Find your tip using the photo above) Make sure to keep your tip nice and fine. You want your tip to end thin. Do not over extend your tip.

Step 2: Powder your brows!

I like using brow powder to set, soften and further define the eyebrows. Again, keep your strokes moving the same way as your brows natural direction.

Ciari's Quick Tip:

Can't find a brow powder shade you love? Give some eyeshadows a try! They come in a much wider range of shades and the formula is usually more pigmented.

Start at the outer half of your eyebrows. (arch to tip) Starting there will help you avoid making your eyebrows look too heavy by getting too much product where your eyebrows begin.

Don't forget to keep your tip clean and thin.

Use what's left on your brush to fill in the rest.

Step 3: Keep them in place!

Use a brow mascara to finish your look. This step is optional, but I just love how a really good brow mascara can make your brows look like a million bucks. There are also some brow mascaras that have fibers in them, which is great to thicken thin brows.

Most people think that all you have to do is brush on the product, but taking the extra step to brush against the growth of your hair before brushing the right direction really makes a big difference. This step makes your eyebrows more plush and natural. Not flat and stiff.

Brushing against your natural hair growth will look messy at first, but don't worry, It will look great!

Fix the hairs on your brow by brushing them up and out.

Step 4: Clean them up and make them pop!

Use an illuminating concealer pen to clean up mistakes and highlight your brow.

Draw along the top and bottom of your eyebrows.

Don't forget to blend with your finger!
