Hello! I thought I would do a post about my eyebrow routine. I was never someone that would pay much attention to my eyebrows at all, however lately I have started an eyebrow routine and I am really happy with it!
My eyebrows have always been fairly thick and dark brown so I didn't feel the need to fill them in. Over the past couple of years I have been shaping them myself by plucking them and it's only been over the past six months I started filling them in. When I started plucking them, I definitely plucked them too much and they were so thin! I have let them grow back recently though and they luckily grew back quickly. I have very recently started getting them threaded which I am very happy about and I really like the shape of them now.
When I started filling my eyebrows in, I used pencils but personally I didn't really like them, so I started using powders instead.
As you may have seen in my September Favourites post, I bought the Benefit Browzings and have been absolutely loving using it! It comes with a wax and a powder which are great at filling in the brows and keeping them in shape. I put the wax and the powder on the angled brush and brush them through my eyebrows to fill them in and shape them.
The wax does definitely help to keep my brows in shape, however during the day there can be some hairs that just stick up a bit so I am thinking of getting a brow gel like the Mac brow set! If you have any suggestions then please let me know.
Here are my eyebrows a couple of days before I am going to get them threaded and without being filled in. Even though there are quite a few stray hairs that need to be removed, my eyebrows do tend to keep their shape pretty well.
Here are my eyebrows after being threaded and without being filled in. I absolutely love getting my eyebrows threaded. I have had my eyebrows waxed before but I would definitely say I prefer threading. My eyebrows last a lot longer before they need doing again! I was quite worried about the pain because I heard it hurt, but I don't find it does too much. My eyes do water so I look like I'm sat there crying, but apart from that it's fine!
Here are my eyebrows filled in and this is how I have them on a daily basis.
I hope this post has been helpful and you have enjoyed it! If you have any more questions then please leave them down below!
Have you ever tried threading? What products do you use for your eyebrows?
Threading is amazing!! (de ja vu :P) xx
ReplyDeleteI love it now I have tried it! Haha ;) xx
Deletemakes me grit my teeth together though! xx
DeleteHaha I think it's bad because it hurts a little bit but they go over the same bit a couple of times which hurts more! My eyes just water though! :) xx
DeleteThis is a great post. I hate doing my eyebrows, it's such a mundane task and they grow back so quick! I need a good eyebrow palette!

I love getting my eyebrows threaded now! I was worried mine would look too filled in as well because they're fairly dark but I would just recommend to use a light hand and don't choose an eyebrow colour too dark. My Benefit browzings is in medium and it's perfect because my eyebrows look natural but I can add more if I need to :) x
DeleteI've never tried threading but always wanted to. I have to research places that do it where I live. Your brows look great! x
ReplyDeleteI would recommend it! I get mine done at Debenhams which is great but I think quite a lot of places do it now :) Thank you x
DeleteThanks for sharing!! :D
ReplyDeleteAww you're welcome! :)
