Basics - No.9: Brows

Not all of us have dark and full eyebrows. Some of us have light colored hair, spaces from a bad cosmetic session or just want another shape. I want to say from the start that I don't believe in shaving your eyebrows or making them very thin. The trend now is strong brows... for those that follow trends. I don't, but I like a somewhat strong brow on a girl because it allows you to make the rest of your face light and with little make-up. Defined brows help your face and individualize it. Plus..it's very pinupy :D...and I love me some pinup style.

Brow products are specially created ones, to coincide with your hair color and to help you with your eyebrow problems. There are powder formulas, crayon, wax, mascara or cakes (wax + powders). Powder is perfect for a natural look, combined with a light tint mascara or clear mascara. Crayons are perfect for filling gaps or changing the brow shape. Wax is for the moment when you want to tame the hairs with a light coloration. And I think what cakes are...You just need to pick the right color for you and with what product you feel most comfortable.
For those that work in theater, and want an even more definition, I would recommend gel liners for eyes, the coverage being a high one.

When you use powder or cakes you should apply them with a angled stiff brush blending the color in the hair and fixing it with mascara. When using a crayon you should go through it, after you fill the brow, with a brow comb, also to blend it and make it more natural.


Always keep a finger on the face for a more precise application.
