Shape Your Perfect Brows.

Advice from a brow technician. 

As an esthetician I come across so many brow mishaps on a day to day basis. Usually because of misinformation, or just going tweezer happy. 
I am going to share with you my tips and tricks to shaping the perfect brows for YOU. Everybody has different preferences on the shape of their brows, just the slightest alteration can change your entire look, it can be a bit scary but if you follow these basic steps you can't go wrong.
















You Will Need:


1. Quality tweezers - My pick, Tweezerman.
2. A light coloured liner, (White, nude) - My pick, NYX Wonder Pencil.
3. Mini scissors.

Find your points:



1. Place the pencil like so, your brows should begin here.  


2. Place the pencil on an angle from the tip of your nose through your pupil. This is where your arch should be.

3. Now from the tip of your nose still, rest the pencil on your cheekbone, having the pencil still skimming the corner of your eye. This is approximately where your brow should end. 

 If you want further guidance to help you through your brow shape, feel free to connect these marks.


You can see that I have lined the shape of the brows I would like with the pencil. Once you have done that, you can simply tweeze whatever is on, our outside of this line. 

Common Brow Mistakes:

Make sure to not take too much off the top of your brow. A light shaping will do.
Make sure to not tweeze off your peak!

The dreaded 'Sperm Eyebrow"
This was a very popular mistake in the early 2000's, Worth a google, you'll see what I mean. Women are having the hardest time growing them out now. Plan to have a more 'graceful' transition into the arch.

Now lets get tweezing!

If you have any questions please ask!
