Beauty Tip of the Day - Eyebrow Week - How to fill in Your Eyebrows


Filling in your eyebrows can be a bit of a nightmare if your not sure what your doing! You don't want to look like a clown that's used a marker to colour in your eyebrows, you want them to look natural like no effort has been made!

You might be one of the lucky ones to have perfect Cara Delevingne brows that don't need anything, or you could have my hardly there brows that need a little help!

Three things to follow to get your brows right - get the colour right, don't be heavy handed & practice!!

The colour

The rule I use is if you have light hair go 2 shades darker, if you have dark hair go 2 shades lighter. I would never recommend using black to fill in your brows unless your used to it already. 

Don't be heavy handed

Trends in make up recently have been the flawless no make up look, so you want your eyebrows to compliment, not stand out. The key is to use light stokes with a eyebrow pen, liner or shadow and fill in gaps as needed not to draw on your eyebrows.

Practice

Your not going to get it right first time, you may find it will take a couple of practice runs before you're ready to leave the house but you will get it eventually, the more your practice the quicker you'll become.


This is how mine look day to day normally! (Sorry about the lighting in this picture) As you can see I've only filled in gaps, this is my natural brow shape. I use Soap & Glorys Brow Archery and I'm doing a product review on that tomorrow! 



Do you fill in your brows? If so what do you use?
