Off course when I first started this obsession, my brows are definitely no where near perfect. It took daily morning practice when I go to work and watching and observing those who I think definitely nailed it in the brows department.
My makeup style is more natural and is more towards 'the no make up look' as people will stare if I go into the office with a lot of makeup on, as if I'm going to a photoshoot. So below are my recommendation and methods I'm sharing with you of how I achieve good eyebrows for my everyday makeup routine.
The more I obsess, the more I discover the number of products available to create the perfect brow! But for me, the items that I must have to create my good brows are:
1. Eyebrow brush (similar looking brush to your mascara brush)
2. Concealer
3. Eyebrow pencil ( I use dark brown)
4. 3CE Eyebrow powder (which you can find here - http://www.alash.com.au/c/17/accessories)
5. Brow highlighter (either in a powder form, or a pencil form)
For the purpose of making this blog a bit easier to understand, I created a little pictorial
So let's go through this pictorial:
1. I always brush my brows before putting anything on, this ensures the foundation of creating a neat brow and that all your brow hair are going in one consistent direction
2. I brush on some concealer, which will help to set and prepare my brows to take the brow powder
3. I line the outside shape of my brow, always follow the shape of your natural brow which you then enhance by creating close to a straight line outside your brow shape to create a 'colour in' section
4. As you can see, in this picture, my brows are already starting to take shape
5. Take your 3CE eyebrow powder, I'm using 'Mannequin' which is perfect for my brow colour
6. I start filling in the space between the top and bottom of my brows using '1' and '3' from my brow kit. I then finished it off with '2' the black brow powder by going over the lines lightly and then creating a curve at the end of my brow
7. I take an angled brush, in this picturial, i used a brow highlighter powder to highlight the section underneath my bottom brow line, especially on the curve section. Highlighting your brows are so important as like it's name, will highlight your brows and make them pop out a bit more
8. I do the same on the top of my brow section with the brow highlighter powder
9. DONE!
Off course there are so many ways of doing your brows, more complicated ones using more products or techniques. For me, this is the best way to do eyebrows for the natural look and especially when I'm time constraint to do my makeup for work.
I hope my advice or 'tutorial' helps you finding your own way of perfecting your eyebrows.
Love
