It's no secret that well-groomed eyebrows can frame your face and create symmetry, but if you're like most people, you’re unsure how to complete the task correctly.

We’ll look at the history, then walk you through the basics, from choosing the right products to shaping and filling in your brows, and also give you tips for maintenance.

History

Eyebrow makeup has been around for centuries, and its use can be traced back to ancient civilizations. The Egyptians were some of the first people to use eyebrow makeup, and they did so to enhance their appearance. In those days, it was considered a sign of beauty and wealth to create well-groomed eyebrows.

Use declined during the Middle Ages, but it experienced a resurgence in the Renaissance. At that time, it became fashionable to have thin, arched eyebrows. This trend continued into the Victorian era, when even more emphasis was placed on appearance.

Eyebrow makeup fell out of favor again in the early 20th century, but it made a comeback in the 1930s. At that time, Hollywood stars like Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich were one of the first to popularize the products once again.

Today, eyebrow makeup is more popular than ever, and there are a variety of products available to achieve the perfect look.

What is it?

This is the practice of shaping and filling in your eyebrows to make them look their best. It can involve using a variety of different products, including:

  1. Powders
  2. Pencils
  3. Gels

Most people use the technique to enhance the shape and color of their eyebrows, but it can also be used to cover up patches or unevenness.

How to Do It:  The Steps

Step #1 Choose the right products

One of the first steps in this beauty routine is choosing the right products. There are a variety of different products on the market, so it's important to choose the ones that will work best for you.

If you have sparse or light-colored eyebrows, you may want to use a brow powder or pencil to create the illusion of fuller, darker brows. If you have dark eyebrows, you may want to use a tinted brow gel.

No matter what products you choose, be sure to test them out on your skin to make sure they won't cause any irritation.

Step #2 Shape

This can be done with a variety of different tools, including:

  • spoolie brushes
  • tweezers
  • razors

Start by combing them up with a spoolie to get an idea of their natural shape. Then, use a pair of tweezers to pluck any stray hairs.

Finally, use a razor or brow trimmer to trim any long hairs.

Step #3 Filling

Start by drawing a light line along the bottom of your brow. Fill in the rest by using short, feathery strokes with your brush.

Be sure to blend the product well so that there are no harsh lines. If you're using a brow gel, apply it with a spoolie brush, in short, upward strokes.

Step #4 Set your makeup

One of the last steps involves - if you use a powder or pencil - a brow gel to set the product in place. If you're using a tinted brow gel, you can skip this step. Just be sure to let the gel dry completely before moving on to the next step in your makeup routine.

Step #5 Maintain your eyebrows

This includes plucking any stray hairs that grow back and reapplying your eyebrow makeup as needed.

If you're using this process, you'll need to reapply it every few days to keep your brows looking their best. If you're using a tinted brow gel, it will typically last for several weeks before needing to be reapplied.

Tips

  • Start with a clean slate: Remove any existing makeup and cleanse your skin to remove any dirt or oil.
  • Choose the right shade: Choose one that is close to your natural hair color. If you have blond hair, opt for a light-brown shade. If you have dark hair, choose a dark-brown or black shade.
  • Less is more: It's better to err on the side of a natural look than to go overboard and end up with artificial looking eyebrows.
  • Know when to stop: Beginners may be tempted to keep plucking or shaving until they're perfect but resist the urge! If you overdo it, you may end up with sparse, uneven eyebrows.
