Eyebrows?

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).

I could use some help in the eyebrow department as well. My brows are on the fuller side, and I keep them tame with twizzers. However, I've been wearing my hair differently, and my brows seems oddly...um...noticeable. I'm really afraid to get waxed because I have VERY sensitive skin. I had a facial once, and my skin burned for days. Any ideas?

Eh, just tweeze them more, but be careful, LOL -- maybe do a little at a time? When I went from dark to light hair last time, I noticed the same thing and just made my eyebrows, well, smaller.

I had my eyebrows waxed once and HATED IT. HATED.

Do you trim them? Getting them to shorter lengths could help prevent the wavy look. That along with clear mascara should do the trick...

I don't have enough to trim

I ended up buying a little eyebrow kit from Sephora - hope it helps.

Thanks for the tip. I figured that waxing was not for me.

I waxed my own eyebrows at home a couple of years ago. BIG mistake. I accidently took off the outer part of the brows and ended up looking like Mr. Spock.

I take the lazy way out and shave mine. I was graced with my dad's bushy eyebrows, and plucking hurts too much and I can't find a good person to wax them, so I just get those little eyebrow razors from Wal-Mart and do 'em myself. I do have to do it about once a week, but it takes all of 30 seconds.
