If you’re new at drawing your brows and need a little more control, use a pencil! Not sure what brows would look good on your face? Try this cheat: visit a Benefit store and get your eyebrows professionally shaped and waxed.

Then, just outline according to the shape of your brows and fill them in with light strokes. For a lighter and more feathery look, try an eyebrow palette with a brush.

This is handy for defining your eyebrow hairs, especially if you have naturally sparse brows. For those with lighter hair colour, a lighter eyebrow mascara lightens your eyebrows so you can match them with your #blondehairdontcare!

Brow gels keep your brow hairs in place, making them pop while looking groomed. If you have fuller eyebrows, just an eyebrow gel will do for lazy days. Otherwise, couple it with an eyebrow pencil for a foolproof formula.

For fuller, more natural looking brows, draw the hairs in individually using an eyebrow pencil or brush. To do this, make short and light strokes following your hair growth. Start off with as little pressure as possible, and adjust your drawing pressure as you go.

Once your eyebrows are nicely drawn, use a fluffy brush to powder the areas around your brows for neater looking brows. You can also use a highlighter pencil to highlight the area beneath your eyebrow. For extra pop, add a sideways V-shape to the inner corner of your eyes.
