3 Ways to Style Your Brows (No Tweezing Required!)
August 16, 2019
Your brows are perhaps the easiest feature on your face to alter with makeup, whether you use concealer to achieve a bleached-out look, or heavy pencil to nail down that maximalist Instagram brow. Because eyebrows frame the face, changing your brow shape might seem intimidating at first, so we put together a step-by-step tutorial featuring three easy ways to bump up or tone down your look. Whether you prefer your brows fluffy, polished or defined, here’s how to change their shape like a pro.
The Fluffy Boy Brow
STEP 1: The fluffy brow begins with the right tool — here, we used the NYX Professional Makeup Fill & Fluff Eyebrow Pomade Pencil. Using the paddle brush side, comb through your brow in a rapid, upward motion to fluff out and elongate each hair.
STEP 2: Next, with a light hand, use the pencil-pomade to softly fill in any sparse areas on the brow until it appears full and even.
STEP 3: Once filled in, comb back through the hairs with the paddle end of the pencil to softly blend out the pigment, leaving you with a soft, voluminous finish.
The Perfectly Polished Brow
STEP 1: Using the Maybelline New York TattooStudio Waterproof Eyebrow Gel, comb upward through your brows with the spoolie to create definition and add color.
STEP 2: Use the tip of the spoolie to define the tail of the brow.
The Defined Instagram Brow
STEP 1: For a super clean but maximalist brow look, use the Maybelline TattooStudio Brow Pomade with a dual-ended angled brush and spoolie. Start by applying color to the brow with the angled brush, working your way upward.
STEP 2: Next, draw on your desired brow shape using the pomade and angled brush, extending it outward to the very tail of your brow hair.
STEP 3: Once your shape is intact, comb through the brow with the spoolie end of your brush for a clean finish.
