My Brow Besties

I'm eyebrow obsessed - always have been, always will be. As far as I'm concerned, the beauty market cannot introduce enough products to treat, condition, enhance, and style the brows. Keep. Them. Coming.

I recently shared a few of my favourite brow growth serums (see the list here!), so I thought it was about time I share my favourite products for shaping, styling, and fixing my eyebrows.

Quarantine Beauty | Eyebrows

Self-isolating isn't the greatest thing in the world, especially when the sun finally makes an appearance BUT it's for the good of the country so stay at home, kweens. Sadly, without the regular trips to the hairdresser, nail salon, spa, or clinic, our personal upkeep will be taking a hit. However, being under quarantine may have its benefits. By not having to face a goddamn soul, you have the freedom to either try something completely new or correct something that's been bugging you for months, safe in the knowledge that - if it goes to shit - no one will see it!

So, for those looking for beauty ideas during this crazy time, I have a quarantine mini series for you. Each post will have a different beauty focus - whether that be nails, hair, or skin. This one is all about the brows...

The Tuesday Tip: Pencil Before Plucking

We've all been there. Hunched over our TweezerMate Magnifying Mirror, obsessing over the shape of our brows and plucking a little more than we should. It's hard not to get carried away with the tweezers but the less you pluck the better. Always. After all, no bitch wants sperm brows...

The Beauty Myth: You Should Not Pluck Above Your Eyebrows

Verdict: False

Many girls grow up thinking that hairs above the eyebrows should not be plucked, however this couldn't be further from the truth. When it comes to plucking, the only danger is over  plucking. Unwanted hairs grow above and below the eyebrows, so plucking both sides is crucial for maintaining well-shaped, beautiful brows. In actual fact, you can often achieve the best shape for your face by plucking above the eyebrows.

To make sure you pluck precisely, try using the Tweezerman TweezerMate Magnifying Mirror (£14.00 Boots / $23.00 beautybay.com). It is a powerful magnifying mirror that shows even the lightest and tiniest of unwanted hairs.
