How to Define Eyebrows With Makeup

A well defined eyebrow can be the finishing touch that pulls all of your makeup together. Eyebrows should be properly shaped by tweezing, waxing or threading to achieve the best look. Practice defining eyebrows with makeup before a night on the town so that you can master the look you love.

Things You'll Need

• Foundation
• Translucent loose powder
• Large powder brush
• Eyebrow pencil
• Eyebrow powder
• Eyebrow brush

Instructions

1. Have your eyebrows shaped to fit your face. Use eyebrow stencils and tweeze them yourself. Visit a professional aesthetician for the best results.

2. Choose an eyebrow pencil when you have normal to dry skin. Use powders or oil free brow liners for oily skin. Use a shade that is close to your natural hair color.

3. Apply foundation to your entire face as normal. Dust a thin layer of loose translucent powder over your face. Add a small amount of powder to your eyebrows.

4. Sharpen the brow pencil. Begin applying brow pencil at the inner corner of the brow.

5. Fill in the eyebrow lightly using quick short strokes. Keep the liner within the border of your eyebrow. Lightly fill in any bald spots. Blend the liner with a brow brush or a cotton swab.

6. Use a slanted eyebrow brush to apply brow powder. Apply colored brow powder in the same manner as the pencil. Use a pencil to fill in bald areas.

7. Brush through eyebrows with a clean brow brush to completely blend.
