10 Genius Beauty Hacks To Your Best Eyebrows Ever!
#1 Know What Brow Shape Suits Your Face Best

Just like how we would choose our hairstyle or glasses based on our face shape, the same goes for shaping our brows.

Before you can start on perfecting how to fill in your brows, you first need to know what shape is the best for you to fill in.

Remember, everyone’s face and eyebrows are different, so what works for your friend or brow idol, may not work for you! Refer to this to find out what shape best flatters and frames your face.

#2 Align Your Eyebrows

This rule, used by Charlotte Tilbury and many make-up artists around the world, is an easy-to-remember guide that helps prevent you from over-drawing your brows. Now ladies, no need to get your rulers out! All you need is to swivel a thin, long make-up brush that is lying around to nail these angles.

#3 Strays, Strays, Go Away

Once you’ve obtained your perfect eyebrow shape, keep your brows in check by getting rid of any strays that grow out. You can also opt for a brow razor to neaten up your brows. This will also prevent any uni-brow mishaps. Go slow, or if you’re uncertain, leave it to the professionals. Brands like Shu Uemera and Benefit have brow artists to help, for a fee.

#4 Steer Clear of Magnification Mirrors

Sure, they help you get an up-close and personal view of your brows, but they also increase the tendency of over plucking. Always remember to look at the big picture by standing a normal distance away from your bathroom mirror.

#5 Brow Hair-Cut

Using a brow comb, or the spoolie that you can typically find on the other end of an eyebrow pencil, comb your eyebrow hairs upward. Trim those that fall outside your brow shape. Doing this helps your brows look a lot neater!

#6 Fill In Your Brows With The Right Colour

This chart gives you a rough guide on what colour you should be reaching for when it’s time to fill in your brows, be it in pomade, pencil or gel form. The main idea is to match your hair colour or go a shade lighter. There are also many eyebrow tints in the market to help match your eyebrow and hair colour.

#7 Small Light Strokes Are Key

Thick brows doesn’t mean thick strokes! We want our brows to look as natural as possible and to achieve that, make sure to control your hand and apply feather hair-like strokes in the direction of your eyebrow hair. It’s always easier to build up than to take off, so don’t press down too hard to avoid any eyebrow disasters.

#8 Use Concealer

Concealer below and above your brows helps you cover up any mistakes you may have made and helps you achieve that neat, clean look.

#9 Get A Spoolie

Praise the heavens for this magical little invention. Firstly, before you fill in your brows, use the spoolie to brush hairs upwards to reveal any sparse areas you will need to pay attention to later.

Secondly, use it to help blend product with natural brow hairs. This will prevent product build up and keeps brows looking as natural as possible.

#10 Set Your Brows

To finish off, use a brow gel. It combs through your eyebrows to separate any strands of hair that may have clumped together while you were filling them in. Also, it helps keep them in place for the rest of the day!
