How To Fake Bold Brows
 |
Brow obsession feels like it's reached a fever pitch as of late. We all know that it's a subtle touch that can quickly make you look a million times better, but doesn't scream 'I made a huge effort!' Basically, we can't get enough. So here's 5 tips to get bigger, bolder, better brows. Then check below for product suggestions.
Choose Powder Over Pencil:
There are a ton of different brow products out there, but powders tend to be easier to maneuver – especially if this if your first time at the rodeo. Pencils lead to a heavy hand (you’re drawing, right?) and powders allow you to “paint” with a lighter touch, and often let you brush away excess and then paint again if needed. Trust us, brow powders are your friend, whereas pencils will have you reaching for the makeup remover.
Focus Powder On the Out Portion of Brows:
But, once you have the powder, concentrate it on the outer portion of the brows. There is no use creating a unibrow for yourself instead of a balanced, full brow – so the best tip here is to work from the arch towards the end. Then, you can take your brow brush and spread the excess pigment toward the inner corner of the brow.
Go In With a Light Hand:
There is nothing worse than having a “painted on” brow – and unfortunately we’ve probably all been there when trying to create that full look. So, go in with a light hand and brush the powder onto the brow hairs, not onto the skin. This way you can lightly layer on the powder and continue to add more until you get the desired look – instead of having to start over once you realize you’ve been a bit heavy handed.
Mix Your Shades:
You’re probably not the exact shade of the powder brow kit that you purchased, so the best way to get the most natural result is to mix the light and the dark powders (as you’re applying) to get the best look. Start with your darker shade along the center of your brows (in thin strokes along the center) and then blend out with a lighter shade from the arch to the ends to mix.
Obviously, Put Down the Tweezers:
And finally, if you’re going to spend all of this time learning how to get that perfect, natural-looking brow, do not tweeze. Let them grow in naturally and have a professional “shape them” but make sure you let them know you love the bold and natural look.
