Advice for applying makeup to the eyebrows.

Before applying makeup to your eyebrows, it's important to ensure that their shape is suitable and tailored to your face. This will only enhance their beauty. Thethree-point trick is often recommended to determine your ideal eyebrow shape. This involves placing a ruler from the wing of your nose to the inner corner of your eye and marking a point at the root of the eyebrow. Then, position the ruler from the wing of your nose to the middle of your eyebrow, passing through the center of your eye. Draw a second point, which corresponds to where the eyebrow should be at its highest. Finally, from the wing of your nose to the outer corner of your eye, mark the last point on the brow bone. Connecting these three points will give you a theoretical ideal eyebrow shape.

Once this shape is determined, you can, if you wish, pluck your eyebrows to achieve it. However, be careful to proceed very cautiously, hair by hair, to avoid ending up with gaps. We also advise you to use tweezers instead of wax, for greater precision. Finally, before applying makeup to your eyebrows, don't hesitate to brush them to properly position them.

Before applying makeup to your eyebrows, it's important to equip yourself with the right tools, chosen based on the result you want to achieve. There are numerous products available, each with a different purpose. Among the most popular are the eyebrow pencil and the eyebrow mascara, which can be used separately or together for a more elaborate makeup look. The former is applied to the skin, not the hair, and is intended to redraw and restructure the eyebrow. It can be used to intensify the size of an eyebrow or fill in a sparse area.

Mascara, on the other hand, is used on the eyebrows and adheres to the hairs to provide volume and texture. Depending on its color, it can lightly tint your eyebrow according to your preferences and also has a fixing effect. If you wish to add more volume to your eyebrows, you can apply the mascara against the grain, that is, in the opposite direction of eyebrow growth. There are other products for makeup on eyebrows, possessing different textures. One can notably think of the gel-cream, highly pigmented and applied with a brush, the powder, giving a natural and blended result, and the eyebrow ink, similar to the eye-liner.

Tip : If you are a beginner, we recommend using a slanted-tip pencil, meaning it is cut obliquely and not at a right angle, as it is easier to apply. Moreover, the fineness of the tip will allow you to achieve a natural hair-like effect.
