The Best Way To Shape Your Eyebrows
Although it's pretty easy to get your eyebrows professionally plucked or shaped, following some simple tips and using the right tools means that its also very easy to do yourself at home.
Tools You Will Need to Pluck Your Brows
How To Start Plucking Your Brows
- Ensure that your skin is cleansed perfectly.
- First of all, using the eyebrow pencil outline the shape that you want your finished brow to be, carefully matching both eyebrows and ideally creating an arch above the centre of your iris.
- The gap between your brows should be a little wider than your eyes, and your brows should finish along a straight line from the end of your nose and past the corner of your eyes.
- Now gently apply a cotton wool ball dampened in warm water to your brow, which will help to open your pores - not too damp or it will smudge your outline shape.
- Using your magnifying mirror pluck the hairs outside of your desired eyebrow shape, pulling them in the direction that they grow and also holding your skin taught whilst plucking.
Your Finished Eyebrows
- Remember to check between every few hairs plucked that you are achieving the desired effect.
- Most importantly don't over-pluck your eyebrows - take it easy, as it takes a long time for brow hairs to grow back, and they don't always grow back the same.
- Remember to check out the whole effect by looking in a normal mirror every so often.
- Using a brow comb or brush tidy your finished brows and apply some cooling skin balm afterwards to remove any soreness or redness.
