Before applying makeup to your eyebrows, it is crucial to equip yourself with the right tools, chosen according to the result you wish to achieve. There are numerous products available, each with a different purpose. Among the most popular are the pencil and the eyebrow mascara, which can be used separately or together for a more elaborate makeup look. The former is applied to the skin, not the hair, and aims to redraw and restructure the eyebrow. It can intensify the size of an eyebrow as well as fill in a sparse area.
Mascara, on the other hand, is used on the eyebrows and clings to the hairs to provide volume and texture. Depending on its colour, it can lightly tint your eyebrow according to your desires and also has a fixing effect. If you wish to add more volume to your eyebrows, you can apply the mascara against the grain, that is, in the opposite direction of eyebrow growth. There are other products for makeup on eyebrows, possessing different textures. One can notably think of the gel-cream, highly pigmented and applied with a brush, the powder, giving a natural and blended result, and the eyebrow ink, similar to the eye-liner.
Tip : If you are a beginner, we recommend using a pencil with a bevelled tip, that is, one that is cut obliquely and not at a right angle, as it is easier to apply. Moreover, the fineness of the tip will allow you to achieve a natural hair-by-hair effect.
