The contoured eye brow fad has swept across social media and beauty blogs with a vengeance, and if not properly executed, can take on a life of its own. When done correctly the perfectly sculpted brow can look fresh and neat. On the contrary, if done with too heavy of a hand or too dark of a color, a natural brow can go from good to bad in a matter of seconds.
When it comes to makeup and beauty, eyebrows do indeed frame the face and are a very important aspect to your look whether you choose to wear a full face of makeup or just tinted moisturizer and gloss. Proper grooming of brows is key and can be done in a multitude of ways.
For all things brows, read on for tips to take your brow game to the next level:
Shape It Up 
If you are starting from scratch, finding the correct shape of your brows can be tricky depending on how full your hair is. For starters, the beginning of any groomed brow starts at your inner tear duct. Brows that extend on towards the bridge of the nose take on the look of a uni-brow. To find the ending point of your brow, take a pencil and angle it next to your nostril and the outer corner of your eyelid. For your arch, line the pencil up with the outer edge of your pupil.
All Brows Aren’t Created Equal 
Pay attention to what your face is telling you. Your eyebrows should mirror closely what your natural brows do. Keep in mind that your eyebrows should look like close cousins not identical twins
Easy Does It 
A light hand goes a long way when it comes to filling in and contouring brows. Whether you are using a powder, pencil, or gel, avoid harsh and heavy strokes to fill in brows. Use gentle strokes to fill in your brows with powder and always allow your natural hair to be visible and blend in with whatever product you choose to use. Also note that the color used to fill in your brows should be slightly lighter than the color of your natural brows. Avoid using black even if you have black hair.
Invest In Brow Gel 
Brow gel is a great tool to use to help brows stay in place while adding a touch of color. The gel helps by shading the really fine hairs within your eyebrow all while keeping everything in place.
