How to Shape Your Eyebrows at Home Naturally
Let’s get started and perfect your eyebrows-shaping skills.
- Brush your eyebrows upward and get ready to remove overgrown hair. Do this in front of a mirror.
- Apply petroleum jelly or oil around the eyebrow, and use a silicon shaper to remove extra hair gently over and beneath your eyebrow.
- Clean the residue with a piece of cloth. Do the same for the other eyebrow and keep alternating the process.
- Use a fluffy brush to apply translucent powder over your shaved eyebrow
- Take your eye pencil (pick a color ideal for your skin)l and mark the beginning of your eyebrow by placing the end of the pencil on one side of your nose’s bridge. Make sure the pencil is straight, then mark where your brow begins.
- From the same spot of your nose’s bridge, bend the pencil and mark the end of your eyebrow.
- Using a sharp pencil, slowly outline the lower part of your brow using the marks you made earlier.
- Brush your eyebrow down, and draw the upper section. Follow the marks
- Add hair-like strokes to your shaped eyebrows and use a spoolie to brush the hairs in the direction of the brow.
- Fill in the visible spaces using the eye pencil. Finish with a spoolie to even out the eyebrow.
How to Have a Perfect Eyebrow Finish
- Use a concealer to highlight and even the right and left eyebrows.
- Use a brush to blend the concealer with your skin. Then, use the brush to separate your left and right eyebrows distinctively. Don’t add more concealer to the brush.
- Use a translucent powder to finish the area with concealer.
- Once done, you can finish adding makeup to your face (if you like).
