I will also be recommending some really affordable & quality products too....
BROW TIPS!!!
Get your brows professionally waxed or threaded every now and then if budget permits.
If you find someone who does this for a living, he/she can give you a great shape to your brows. The goal is to have the arch of the brow just outside your pupil.
Thicker is better.
Generally, fuller brows portray youth, so obviously keeping them thicker makes you look younger :) You still want to shape them, but go easy on the tweezers!
Shape accordingly.
Ideally you want the inner part of your brow to be thicker, then taper to a thinner line as it goes toward your temple. Again, the arch should be just outside your pupil.
For super dark brows, you may need to lighten them.
If you have fair skin and very dark brows, you may need to lighten them. If your skin is fair and my brows are black, You may bleach them slightly with facial bleach to make them less harsh. Leave the bleach on only for 5 minutes or you will have orange brows!
NEVER EVER fill in your brows with black pencil
Unless you want the black sharpie brows, just please… don’t do this. Even if you have black brows, you want to fill them in with a dark brown- not black.
Find brow powders/pencils/gels with a khaki tint to them- not red.
Because hair naturally has a khaki undertone to it, using a brow pencil that has a touch of khaki color will look more natural.
For the most natural brows, use powder instead of pencil.
For the most natural brows, use a matte finish tan or brown eyeshadow to fill in with. Take an angled brow brush and apply shadow to sparse areas.
Shade accordingly.
Not the entire brow is going to be the same darkness all throughout. Generally, the arch and the tail of the brow should be the most defined and the darkest. The inner part should be slightly more sparse and lighter.
Clean up around the edges.
For very defined and “clean” brows, take a small flat brush and apply creamy concealer under the brows to tidy up the edges. You probably don’t need this step for everyday, but for those more defined brows to go with dramatic looks, this helps sharpen them a bit.
Tame the strays.
Finally, if you're one of those with the curly brows, you may need a brow gel to keep them in place.
