If you thought doing your eye, lips and base was key to achieving a flawless look, think again!
You’re forgetting the most important, yet underrated part of the face.
We’re talking about our eyebrows. Those perfect arches have the power to make or break our look.
And no, just a visit to your beautician once a fortnight isn’t enough to maintain them. Specially during Eid time, when there is not enough good options.
You need to constantly take care of those arches, if you want your face to be perfectly framed. Here are some tips that’ll help you do so:
Know Your Shape
Whether it’s a natural curve, a well-defined arch, or a perfectly straight line, you need not change your natural brow shape, as it perfectly complements your facial structure. Instead, focus on how you can enhance your already charming arches.
Invest In Top-notch Products
A perfect beauty kit is an investment, no kidding. We recommend going for the perfect angular brow brush for a precise application. Brow gels or pomades are excellent additions to your brow kit. These products add texture, hold, and an extra definition layer to your brows, ensuring they stay polished and well-defined throughout the day.
Map It Out
Align the brow tool vertically with the outer edge of your nostril, pointing upwards. Mark this point—it’s where your eyebrow should begin. Pivot the tool diagonally from the outer edge of your nostril, passing over the center of your eye’s iris. This marks the highest point of your arch. Extend the tool further, aligning it with the outer edge of your eye. This marks where your eyebrow should taper off. If you get this right, trust us, your brows are already halfway done!
Groom Your Brows
You’ll need to pluck out those extra hair before you start filling in with an eyebrow pencil. Avoid over-plucking as it may lead to unnaturally sparse brows. When you’re done, your eyebrows are ready for the final step.
Fill Them In
Rather than creating harsh lines, use gentle strokes to fill your brows. This technique achieves a softer, more natural look that enhances your features without appearing too bold. And the key is getting the perfect shade of brow pencil that won’t make you look like you overdid it! Dark browns do the magic, most of the time!
Highlight
Your hard work must pay off! So show off those arches with a subtle highlighter that enhances the natural lift. It’s all about having fun and feeling confident so get that brush and go for it!
