Do something with your eyebrows

Many gals, from the look of it, think that eyebrows are still intended to keep sweat out of our eyes. As we no longer have to gather food or work in fields if we don't want to, please do make your eyebrows compliment your face. I promise, if you do take are of your eyebrows, you can go out of the house wearing nothing except lip gloss, concealer and sunglasses.

I thought I was obsessed with shaping eyebrows, but Elke Von Freudenberg who writes the Beauty Newsletter really comes first when brows are considered.

In her article The Model Eyebrow she writes word after word of quality eyebrow shaping advice, from which tweezers to use, which shape is right, where should you pluck and where not. But, the thing which most impressed me was the part about eyebrow makeup:
1. If you are growing in your eyebrows, or just want a different look, eyebrow shadows are the way to go. Leave the eyebrow pencils at home. Why? The wax in pencils can make eyebrows look too dark, heavy and easily smears in warm weather. Instead, apply eyebrow shadow with a small angle brush, that's very soft and very thin. You'll get the best line that way.
2. Best eyebrow colors? Choose a eyebrow shadow that's 2-3 shades lighter than your hair color. Why? It always looks darker once it's applied.
3. Once applied, take a small toothbrush and brush in the shadow into the skin. It will last hours longer and appear much more natural. This step is usually forgotten and often makes eyebrows appear heavy and fake.
4. Want a quick evening look? Take your eyebrow color but in a shimmery shade and apply just as you would during the day. The soft shimmer from the shadow will make eyes sparkle.

I mean, this gal is the eyebrow guru.

So, before you even think about doing your brows, or even getting them done at the salon, read Elke's article.
