brows

Q: Over the years, my eyebrows have gotten thinner and patchy. I got an eyebrow pencil and tried to fill them in, but they just looked like someone drew a line on my skin, especially where there was actually no hair left anymore. I had a professional make-up artist do my eyebrows once and when she was finished, they looked like eyebrows, seemingly with little individual hairs. Help! How do I make them look like the pro did?

A: This is a good question. When you get your eyebrow pencil, you’ll want to make sure it is sharp. Then you want to gently stroke the pencil in the same direction as the other hairs in the brow. Basically, you are putting on individual drawn lines, penciled on “hair”. Set with a brow gel in either clear or the tone to match your brows and start raising some eyebrows!
