How to Get Perfect Eyebrows Without Tweezing

If you're tired of tweezing, plucking, waxing, or threading your eyebrows for the perfect brows (which can be costly and painful) why not try this alternative method?

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• a dark (or light) colored eye pencil
• eyebrow stencils (can be found at any drugstore or cosmetics section)
• tiny eyebrow/bikini razors (found in either cosmetics or with the razors depending where you shop)

1. Take one of the eyebrow stencils, which ever one you would like your brow shape to be, and line it up with your brow. Remember, the arch of your brow should line up with the outside of your iris.

2. Use the colored eye pencils to fill in the stencil. A light color will work better with dark brows and a dark pencil will work better with light brows. Don't worry, this isn't the color you should use, this is just a guide.

3. Using the tiny razor, use small strokes first between your brows shaving whatever that you did not color with the pencil. Then move to under the brow, and if you need to also do above your brow. Use the penciled in area as an outline so you get the shape you want.

Tips & Warnings

• When you are done, you may want to use a face lotion on your eyebrow area. Just like when shaving your legs, your brow area can get dry and very red.
• Once you've stenciled your eyebrow the first time, every time after it will be very easy to keep the shape without having to use the stencil or the pencil.
• If you nick yourself, hold your finger over the cut to stop the bleeding. Avoid shaving over the area again. It'll hurt.
• This method doesn't last as long as plucking, threading, or waxing but it is very easy to maintain every few days. And you'll be saving loads of money on those salon trips.
