Full Brows for Winter

Oh damn, this is my brow-spiration.

Hmm, I cant decide if I like these brows, or fear them.

I love the straight style of the brows of the Olsen sista's.



Does anyone else feel like full brows are perfect for the colder months? Like they add a touch of sophistication to a cosy looking outfit? Or they simply keep the eyes a bit warmer in winter? lol. I feel like recently, fuller brows are becoming the style, and more and more people are becoming envious of Cara Delevingnes eyebrows. Gone are the days of the skinny brows - a la Jean Harlow, and a new bushy-brow era is approaching. Although some of us were not blessed enough to be born with bushy brows, (myself included) here are some tips and tricks for us unfortunate souls to add some Delevingne into our faces hehe:

1. If you have over-plucked your brows because you got a bit excited with your new tweezers, go back to square one and let your brows grow back to their natural state! And resist the plucking urge!!

2. Rub lukewarm olive oil into your brows every night before going to bed, this softens them as well as improving hair growth. You can also use Vaseline.

3. Include lots of Vitamin C in your diet to promote hair growth, you can take supplements or eat foods that are rich in Vitamin C such as Blackcurrants, Kiwi's, citrus fruits, dark green veg and bell peppers.

4. Use a brow pencil to lightly outline your eyebrows, if you are going to overdraw them, do it on the top rather than the bottem as this makes your eyes look smaller. after doing this, fill in your brow with powder for the most natural look.

5. When choosing a brow pencil or powder, choose two shades lighter than your hair colour if you have dark hair, and two shades darker than your hair if you have light hair.

6. When filling in your brows, it is important to not over fill too much because they will look like slugs rather than brows so make sure you fill them in naturally.

7. When plucking your brows use this guide with a pencil or makeup brush to make sure you don't over or under pluck.


 
 
Hope you found these tips helpful and Happy Browsing!! (get it? haha im good)

  1. These are some great tips! I definitely agree that the full brow trend is in full force right now and it is the perfect fit for wintery style. I personally have been sporting a wolfy brow look lately and I like to use a clear brow gel to get the hairs to stick up a bit more and appear more full. Thanks for sharing! xx
