Achieve Perfect Eyebrows Brows in 3 easy steps – Brow Expert Liz See

1-2-3 Guide to Beautiful Brows

Eyebrows frame the eyes and maintaining the brows and having them shaped should be an essential part in any beauty routine. Have you ever noticed how plain a picture is without a frame? The same can be said about eyebrows if they do not frame the eyes properly. A beautiful eyebrow can completely change the way a person looks and one of the first steps in eyebrow shaping is the alignment of the brows.

The are three crucial points: the START, the ARCH and the END point. All of these points help form the end resulting shape of the brows.

• The start point is one of the points that a lot of eyebrow shapers get wrong and if this occurs the rest of the brow will always look out of balance. In most cases you can find the start point by using a ruler, a pencil or an eyebrow comb and position it from the edge of the nose or the middle of the nostril if the nostrils are pronounced. This will only differ if the eyes are wide or close set and if this is the case extra hair needs to be taken off or more hair left.

• The next important point is the arch. The arch determines where the highest point on the brows should be. Even if the client has a flatter or rounded brow, there still should be a highest point in the brow shape. The arch can be determined in a few ways, but the method I prefer is using your ruler, pencil or eyebrow comb and position it from the middle of the top lip (the cupids bow) and extending through the pupil (centre) of the eye. Make sure to look forwards and straight ahead when you are finding this point. You can even mark this point with a white eyebrow pencil so you know where the arch should be. Ensuring the arch is correct can also give your eye a brightening or lift effect with many people saying that a good brow shape is like having a mini-facelift.

• The end point on the brow is found by extending your ruler, pencil or eyebrow comb from the centre of the top lip past the edge of the eye. Where this sits on the brow bone is where the eyebrow should finish. Many people (including myself) have one or both eyebrows that finish before this point. The use of brow dust and brow pencils can then be used to extend the brow to ensure it stays balanced.

• The END result…..this client has beautiful soft-angled brows with great alignment, balance, colour and thickness.

• The key to eyebrow shaping is ensuring you accentuate or minimize the ‘natural’ brow shape.

Beautiful Brows…..Beautiful YOU!
