TOOLS:

  • A straight edge

  • A brow liner pencil

  • A brow powder

  • Stiff-angled brow brush

  • Brow Gel


STEPS:

  1. Place the straight edge along the underside of the brow, from the end to the arch, and trace a line with the brow liner.

  2. Place the straight edge along the top of the brow, from the end to the arch again, and trace a line with the brow liner.

  3. Place the straight edge along the top of the brow, from the arch to the beginning of the brow (by your nose), and trace a line with the liner.

  4. Place the straight edge along the bottom of the brow, from the bottom of the arch to the beginning of the brow, and trace a line connecting it to the one from step 1. Steps 1-4 basically drew an outline of the perimeter your brow.

  5. Dip your brow brush into the shadow powder and start drawing individual hairs, mimicking your own, by flicking the brush upwards in little strokes. This technique is more tedious than merely shading it in but looks much more realistic.

  6. Continue drawing hairs all the way to the arch.

  7. Fill in the arch with more curved motions, determined by the direction of the hair growth.

  8. Switch to downward strokes from the arch to the end.

  9. With the brow gel, brush hairs upwards if you’re like me and like a more natural look. If not, brush them from the nose towards the arch to lock them in place.
