3 Simple Techniques To Darken Your Eyebrows
Another method of darkening the eyebrows is through various makeup products available in the market such as brow powder, mascara and eyebrow pencil. However, this method is not permanent and works for a day.
- While doing make-up, take the mascara brush and simply dip it once in the tube.
- Lift the brush and get some of the mascara off by rubbing the brush on the outline of the tube.
- Swipe the brush gently on the eyebrows, so that it applies evenly without smearing and appearing too dark.
- Sometimes a little bit of touch-up is required to make it look perfect.
Quick Tip
Use a clean spoolie and comb the brows after the mascara dries. It helps remove mascara clumps and tidies your brows.
3. Darkening Eyebrows Through Brow Powder
A third way of darkening the eyebrows is through an eyeshadow. This is the easiest method but the disadvantage is that it comes off very quickly, so one has to reapply it frequently.
- Take an eye shadow brush and dip it in the color that is similar to one’s original eyebrow color.
- Simply stroke the brush along the eyebrows to make them look darker and fuller.
- Choose a lighter shade than the earlier one and brush the color on the eyebrows softly, so that one does not end up with a very dark eyebrow.
Quick Tip
Since the eyeshadow comes off quickly, it is best to do this after you put on all of your other makeup first. Otherwise, you will have to reapply every time you wear makeup.
How To Shape And Style Your Eyebrows
- If you want to flaunt your eyebrows, then first you have to create the perfect shape and adjust the thickness and contour according to the shape of your face. This step requires grooming tools like tweezers and scissors.
- Eyebrow pencils are a must have while styling the eyebrows. Pencils work perfectly as they provide dimension and also add volume to flat and thin eyebrows.
- Brown powder is another essential tool that can help groom, define, and shape your eyebrows. This is ideal if you want your long-lasting dark eyebrows and to provide a different look according to the occasion.
- Gel pigment or powders with tint also help in lightening a dark eyebrow or keeping in place an un-shapely brow.
Proper styling and makeup can take years off the face and also help in flaunting the eyebrows.
In this personal blog, Logan Dena Evans reflects on her quest for the perfect redhead eyebrows, navigating eyebrow filling techniques, brow dyes, and finally discovering success with a cream dye, revealing, “The scariest part of that first time was seeing that the product looks like grape jelly when it’s developed. For the first 5 minutes, I honestly thought that I might have to rock purple eyebrows for a week or two. However, after removing it, I saw that it was quite a natural, light red that went really well with my hair (i).”
If one has a great eyebrow then it helps in framing the eye. It also flatters the face and above all, provides a subtle balance without compromising the rest of the make-up.
