What is the mission of the eyebrows? Frame your look and add depth and character. Careless and sparsely populated eyebrows will only detract from your face’s expressiveness. So find out how you should wax them, make up and take care of them to achieve perfect and symmetrical brows.
Symmetrical Eyebrows
To create that harmonious effect you want, you must follow these design guidelines. Use a pencil to align your eyebrow properly.
A. Align the wing of the nose with the tear duct of the eye, at the point indicated by the pencil is where the eyebrow should begin.
B. Align the wing of the nose with the iris of the eye: this is where the arch of the eyebrow should be.
C. Align the wing of the nose with the end of the eye to find out where the brow should end. Of course, remember that the first part should never be lower than the end and that the beginning always has to be thicker.
Hair removal tips
Your goal is to try to remove the hair that is not in the areas that we have marked with the pencil, although trying to respect the natural shape of the eyebrow. Before starting with the tweezers, always apply micellar water with a cotton pad in the area And, when you are removing the hair, always do it in the same direction of its growth to avoid breakage.
A makeup artists trick is to use the handle of a brush or an eyeliner pencil, any straight element. It rests on the side of the nose and, diagonally, the other end of the object should reach the end of the eyebrow. The line touches the corner of the lip, passes through the outer corner of the eye and should touch the end of the eyebrow.
Another fact to consider is that in the event that there are depopulated areas of the eyebrow, they can be corrected with an eyebrow makeup pencil, tracing small dotted lines that fill the eyebrow and define it.
Another trick of professional makeup artists is to fix the eyebrows with a mascara on clear gel, which that way leaves them in place and very defined. Combs and brushes for eyebrows and eyelashes are useful tools that allow to give good shape to the eyebrows, they should not be left aside and it is always good to have a brush in your bag to touch them up during the day, just as we comb our hair during the day .
The ideal time to pluck the eyebrows is when getting out of the shower, since the steam dilates the pores and facilitates the exit of the hair. It is convenient to carry out a weekly retouch. You can use a little wax in case of overly crowded eyebrows, however this system is too bloody for the delicate skin of the periocular area, so it should be limited to cases where it is essential.
Makeup is the key
Whether it is to emphasize your look, enhance bare eyebrows or work on their shape, makeup is essential. Use an automatic eyebrow pencil with a natural finish, to define and fill in those small spaces between the hairs. It is very important that you later blend the makeup with a beveled brush. To end, apply brow fixing gel so that the hairs stay in place all day.
For him makeup of your eyebrows you will need to
An angled brush with stiff bristles, a brush; it can be one of a mascara that you no longer use and is clean, an opaque shade in brown; This applies if you are blonde, brunette or brunette, the only thing that changes is the shades of this color depending on your type of skin, never black. You will also need a concealer, a brush with synthetic bristles, and water.
Load the brush with some water and brown shadow, then make a continuous line at the bottom end of your eyebrows and take them to the end, starting from the area of the tear duct to the extreme outside, then make the same line at the upper end, followed by this put in the brush a little water with shadow and fill your eyebrows; with the brush remove the excess and wait for them to dry.
Put a little concealer on the brush and make a line just below and above your eyebrows, seal with a little powder to make the line look much more perfect.
An eyebrow design for every type of face
Although we have talked about “the perfect eyebrow”, it is important to take into account the shape of the face.
• If you face is rounded, you need to create angles. To do this, raise your eyebrows and create a marked change of direction starting from the arch.
• However, if you face is elongated, you shouldn’t create angles. Brush your brows horizontally to create two lines that divide the face and visually shorten it.
• Yes your forehead is big, you must raise your eyebrows to the maximum (this will shorten the distance with the hairline).
• If you have the eyes rather together, you will need to pluck the browbones a little more to be able to visually separate them.
• However, if you have the eyes apart, marks the beginning of the eyebrow more than the end.
