A guide to eyebrow products

Bare Escentuals essential brow kit

The impact of eyebrows on a person’s overall look is often underestimated. Well-shaped eyebrows can add a glow to your face and accentuate your facial features. Want to know more about eyebrow products to help you get that perfect arch? Here’s a fundamental guide that should help you.

Eyebrow tweezers:
You probably get your eyebrows shaped at a salon by threading or waxing. Tweezers help to maintain your eyebrows in those in-between times until your next visit to the salon. Every two or three days check if any brow hairs need to be plucked. Do be careful when you are plucking your eyebrows. If you over pluck, it’ll take a long while for the brow hair to grow back.

Eyebrow comb:
An eyebrow comb is essential to figure out whether there are any gaps to be filled or any stray hairs. The comb will also help in setting the brow.

Eyebrow pencil:
Most ladies rely on eyebrow pencils to define their brows. They are easy to use, long lasting and look realistic when applied with soft, subtle strokes. You can also use eyebrow mascara.

Eyebrow powder:
If you have wide gaps between your brow hairs or need to reshape the brow then choose an eyebrow powder that is a shade lighter than your brow color. Apply it with an angled brush for best results.

Eyebrow wax and gel:
An eyebrow gel gives volume to the eyebrows and helps to set stray hair in place. It can be used over an eyebrow pencil or powder to set the brows. The purpose of a brow wax is similar to that of an eyebrow gel. The only difference is its texture.

Cream based products:
Cream based eyebrow products are often more effective in filling in patches. However, they need to be applied with brushes. They are more difficult to handle and tend to smudge unless set with powder.

If you are unsure of what products to use, get yourself a complete eyebrow kit like the Bare Escentuals essential brow kit or the Benefit Cosmetics brow zings.
