Open the pores around your eyebrows for easier plucking. You can either use a facial steam, which will help to clean and open the pores of your entire face, or simply place a warm washcloth over your brows for a minute or two.

2
Use a small eyebrow brush to brush your brows upwards. Start by neatening up a bit, getting rid of the obvious hairs that grow below and in between your brows. Make sure that you use a quality pair of tweezers which can be squeezed tightly along the entire tip for easier removal.

Begin plucking the eyebrows themselves. Start at the end of your brow closest to your nose and work towards the opposite tip. Work back and forth from one eyebrow to the other to keep them even. Step back from the mirror after every few hairs to get an idea of what you have plucked and how much more you should pluck. Remember, less is more, so only pluck what is necessary to give your a neat look.

Get a neat look if you have some thin patches in your eyebrows by filling them in with an eyebrow pencil. Make sure that you use a brow pencil which is slightly lighter than your natural hair color.
