While caring for your eyelashes is super important, don’t forget those things sitting above them – your eyebrows! Well-groomed eyebrows can be a game-changer when it comes to nailing the perfect look, but does that mean you’ve got to invest more money in expensive treatments? No!
Save your hard-earned cash and read on to discover how to shape your eyebrows with our DIY eyebrow enhancement tips. Plus, check out our comparison of what people claim are the best ways to boost eyebrow growth.
Today, we’ll be covering:Shaping your eyebrows at home really couldn’t be easier. All you need is:
A) A set of tweezers, for plucking and shaping
B) A spoolie or a clean mascara wand, for combing
Everyone’s face is different, so you really can't make a comparison between what will work for you, and what might work for someone else. All you need to do is work out what eyebrow shape suits your particular face shape.
This process is called ‘brow mapping,’ and it can be done using any makeup pencil you have onto hand:
1) Finding the start: Hold the pencil against the side of your nose and align it with the inner corner of your eye (the edge of the pencil should just touch the outer edge of your eye). Where the pencil crosses the eyebrow line is where your eyebrow should start.
2) Finding the arch: Keeping one end of the pencil at the side of your nose, tilt it so that the pencil aligns with the outer edge of your pupil (the black dot in the middle of your eye). Where the pencil crosses the brow line is now where your arch should be.
3) Finding the end: Still keeping one end of the pencil at the side of your nose, tilt it again so that it now aligns with the outer corner of your eye. Where the pencil crosses your brow line is where the end of your eyebrow should be.
Once you’ve got a clear idea of what your perfect eyebrow should look like, then you’re ready to start!
Start by cleaning the eyebrow area using a gentle facial cleanser or some simple micellar water. Removing any leftover bacteria this way helps ensure your eyebrows stay healthy, and also prevents spreading bacteria when using your tweezers or spoolie.
Compare your brow mapping exercise with your actual eyebrow shape. Does the brow start and end where it should? Is the arch clearly defined? Most of us will always have one or two rogue eyebrow hairs lurking somewhere, so all you need to do is pluck them out.
First, identify the hairs you want to pluck. Then, using one hand, hold the skin of your brow taut, and with your tweezers in the other, gently pluck out each hair individually. Remember not to do overdo it – a tidy eyebrow line is what you’re aiming for, not a bald one!
Once your eyebrows have taken on the right shape, it’s time to comb...
Combing your eyebrows has the same effect as combing your lashes – it helps to give them more definition and volume. Using your spoolie or mascara wand, comb gently upwards from root to tip.
By now, you should already see an improvement in your eyebrow shape. But there’s one final enhancement trick that will really make your friends sit up and take notice, and it actually takes us back to your eyelashes...
Have you heard of Lash Growth Serums? Lash Growth Serums are specially-formulated gels that help to boost your natural eyelash growth cycle. However, they can also be used on eyebrows!
By stimulating the hair follicles along your brow line in the exact same way as your lash line, a Lash Growth Serum directly increases the length and volume of your eyebrows, which means you can shape the perfect brow with just a few weeks of daily application.
You will hear all kinds of crazy rumours about how olive oil or petroleum jelly might boost eyelash and eyebrow growth. But when you look at a comparison of all the different tips that people recommend, Lash Growth Serums are the only option that are both scientifically proven and consistently well-reviewed by consumers.
In fact, if you are looking for an eyelash or eyebrow enhancement, our Lash Growth Serum has been shown to boost average eyelash growth by an incredible 56% in just 6 weeks.
