Geez Louise! Let’s abolish the tatted mustache and rainbow surprise eyebrows! 

  • Color Cue. If you are Brunette your brows should be two shades lighter. Blonde & redheads should be one shade darker.
  • Kill the Overkill. Don’t over do it with pencil & shadows on the brow. Think definition, not animation.
  • Fact: A man wants to look Into your eyes, not AT a big, dark brow stencil.
  • No uni-brows, but keeping the brows slightly closer makes your eyes appear bigger and your nose appear smaller.
  • The more angular the face is, the softer the brow curve should be. For rounder faces, a sharper arch will elongate and define it.
  • Skinny in the waist, not in the face. The anorexic, half moon brow arch makes you look cheap. Period.
