Everything Brows




So, my sister and I are a little obsessed with brows. Having a perfectly plucked set of brows is high on our priority list. If only we could all have Audrey Hepburn's. Here are a few tips.
Firstly thin is NOT in. Let them grow out before trying to shape them. Try using a hair growth enhancer to help them grow out (The Anastacia one is fantastic ) or use a new soft toothbrush and brush and massage your brows in a circular motion each night for a few weeks, this will help stimulate the hair folicle and encourage growth.

The best eyebrow shape I have ever had was at the SEPHORA brow studio (of course) but in Australia there are a few eyebrow guru's. My Favourite is Nathan at Parlour B in Sydney. and girls... YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! If you pay for a $12 eyebrow wax, dont expect too much. When you go to salons that are experts on brows you will get the attention you deserve, shaping, waxing, plucking, tinting and then concealer and makeup as you leave.
I believe that getting your brows done atleast once every 2 months is worth it, and then its our job to keep them in shape in between. I dont recommend trying to shape and tint your own brows. For the finishing touch use a clear mascara to shape them and a very fine square shaped hard brush with a bit of light brown or blonde eye shadow to shape them perfectly! Pencil looks less natural and Gels are too heavy, Powders work a treat.
p.s I am not a big fan of the Sharon Lee eyebrow studio's I have trialed many places and this was not fabulous and it cost a fortune!
