Eyebrow Shaping

Few things make you appear more groomed than well plucked eyebrows. The shape can completely transform the look of your face. So here are a few tips on how to tweeze your own eyebrows.

The biggest mistake people make is to tweeze too much. Avoid over plucking as it can take months for brows to grow back. Here's a simple trick to remember: The space between your brows should be equal to, or a little wider than, your eyes.

The best brows have a slight arch. To find yours, hold the brush parallel to the outside edge of the coloured part of your eye (the iris). Where the brush meets the brow is where the highest part of your brow should be.

You also want to make sure you're near a window with light pouring in or under a bright light with a good mirror. Make sure to pluck hairs in the direction they grow. Don't grab too many hairs at a time. You can hold skin taut as you pluck. Stop every few hairs to step back and look at the job you're doing. If you over pluck, you're stuck. Unlike most hairs on your body, your brows won't always grow back once they're yanked.
