Eyebrow can easily add a new look and brighten your face, if it is well applied.
From what I have been seeing around, I thought there was really a great need to talk about the eyebrow. Well, you might be wondering why? The simple reason is that most women don’t know how to shape their eyebrow or what color of pencil to use.

First, let’s talk about how to chose an eyebrow pencil. Always make sure that you chose a colour that closely matches your hair. It doesn’t have to be black, except your hair is charcoal black. What I’m saying in essence is that you need to pick a shade of color that is a bit lighter than your hair. You might think that the primary use of an eye pencil is to accentuate your brow, but when you use the wrong pencil then you won’t have that natural look that you see on models or beauty queens.

For instance, if you are on the dark side you can use the color 18 pencil.Really you don’t have to jump at any eye pencil. Take a look through the magazines and see how models and celebrities have theirs shaped. If you are still confused then go see a make up artiste who would help you choose the perfect pencil for you.

Please avoid that thin miserable line you create on your eyebrows every morning. All you need to do is groom your eyebrows well, and then trace them with your pencil. If you have very thin eyebrows, you can add depth and volume with a correctly shaded pencil. If you make a mistake, wash it off and start all over again. Make sure that your eyebrow pencil comes with a brush, which is very important for grooming. You can also decide to get them at any salon.

However, for a complete look, always make sure you trim your eyebrows regularly because it makes you look younger. Don’t overdo it, so it won’t look like a bad hair cut.
For those who prefer a wax or threading, always make sure you visit a trusted salon. Let them know you don’t want to overdo it, because thin eyebrows make a woman age faster !
