Eyebrows?

ADqtPiMel · #1 08-19-2006, 12:33 PM

Ladies, I have an eyebrow problem. I have wavy hair - which means I also have wavy eyebrows, and they grow all over the place. I am super anal about my eyebrows looking nice and neat, but it is pretty much impossible with what I've been given.

So in short, I went a little crazy with the plucking. They are nice and neat now, but they're also nearly non-existant and I sort of look like an alien. Any suggestions for how to grow them out without looking awful in the process? Is there any way to sort of plump them up with a pencil or something? Help!

Mine are arched pretty well, but they are pretty light in color. Sometimes I use an eyeliner brush to sorta darken them. I hate pencils cuz they sometimes end up looking fake. You could try that.

You can use brow gel or clear mascara to keep them under control.

The Natural Brow Shaper here (scroll down a bit) is the shit. I've never used it to make my eyebrows more "plump," but I think it might work. I seriously love this -- although I always use an eyebrow brush to blend it after applying, so it's more subtle.

I have wavy brows too and I was so happy when the plucked-to-hell look was in style-- looking back, it was a bit scary looking... pencil them in until they grow back and then keep them in line with a brow gel-- or you can spray a little hairspray/apply a fine amt of vaseline to a brow brush and keep them in place.

Bare Minerals has a great brow kit with powder, brush and gel. Try Sephora or QVC (believe it or not).

My eyebrows aren't non-existant, but they are definitely sparse. I've tried pencils and HATE them. They make me look weird.

Lately I use Mary Kay's Eye Primer first, then tab some of Maybelline's dark brown eyebrow powder with an eyeliner brush & apply. The eye primer keeps the powder on all day, and the powder is a perfect match for my eyebrows.

Good luck
