Many of us have faced this situation where our eyebrows have been overly tweezed or they just do not match properly. Some may even feel that they do not have the perfect pair of eyebrows. No matter the situation, the good news is that eyebrow pencils and powders work just fine to bridge this gap.

1. Quick hacks for the perfect pair of eyebrows

• Start with a clean eyebrow. You should wash your face and it must be dry.
• Place a brush along the side of the nose to figure where your brows should start ideally.
• Angle the brush diagonally from the outside of the nose to the outer corner of the eye to find where your eyebrows should ideally end. With this step and the above, you clearly get a picture of your area of work—where you should start and the end can be clearly understood.
• Use a spoolie brush. This gives you a clear understanding of the shape you like and also to see the areas where they are uneven.
• This step is really important and you need to be patient with this. Use short, dash-like strokes and mimic the natural hair on your eyebrows. Fill the sparse areas first with a pencil. Ensure to pick the best color that matches your tone and that it fills only lightly.
• The next step is to give shape to your eyebrows. Use an angled brush and also use colored pressed powder to define the shape of your eyebrows. However, ensure not to over fill and ensure that the endpoints are not harsh.
• Use the spoolie brush again and brush through the eyebrows in order to blend out the colors. This also softens any harsh lines.
• To clearly define the look and hold the hair in its place, you could also opt for colored gel. Just comb through the hair with this.
• Lastly, use a fluffy brush and dip it in a translucent powder and trace it around the perimeter of the eyebrows. This ensures that the edges look sharp and clean.

2. How to ensure that all of this lasts?

The common problem that one would face is the longevity of the makeup. In order to avoid this, two tips can be adopted:

• Ensure to buy a product that lasts longer: There are several eyebrow pencils and other eyebrow grooming cosmetics available in the market. Ensure to select the one that lasts long. Perhaps a waterproof cosmetic line would help you in this.
• Use a hair gel: Another way to ensure that your eyebrow makeup stays fresh and alive the whole day is to dip the spoolie brush in hair gel and gently applying on the eyebrows after all the makeup is done as a last step.

It is certainly important that eyebrow makeup is given a lot of attention. A perfectly framed eyebrows could frame your face and also bring your eyes out—all of this with or without makeup.
