SHAPING UP YOUR EYEBROWS


Your speak more than you do. Actually eyebrows change your appearance dramatically and according to the situation. Using a tweezer for your eyebrows can change your face without make up. It makes your eyes look bigger and provide your face a clean and polished look. Eyebrows give a natural frame to your eyes, it provides a regular proportion to the eyes. They protect eyes from dust and dirt too. If your brows are not dense enough give them volume by filling them up with brow powder. Even a brow liner works well by providing a heavy look. Or you can use a combination of eyebrow gels and liners. Try not to draw on eyebrows, just outline them. For applying the eyebrow powder go for a wedge or a thin liner brush. Try not to tweeze your eyebrows on a special date or occasion. Threading is also a method of providing shape to your brows, and this technique is popular in India, China and countries of Middle East. Waxing is not suitable since you cannot control wax to remove individual hair at particular places. Try and tweeze your brows after you have washed your face.

Here we will let you know few important steps for tweezing your eyebrows:

  • Make sure the beginning of the brow points towards center of the nostril.

  • Pluck out extra hair that come out of shape.

  • Check carefully each of your step while you pluck your eyebrows in front of mirror.

  • After you finish, take a bag half-melted ice, rest on your eyebrows.
