Well-maintained eyebrows make eyes pop.
Well-manicured eyebrows frame your face and accentuate your eyes. However, many women must perform regular maintenance to achieve well-groomed eyebrows. Plucking eyebrows is one way to accomplish this, however it is very easy to make a mistake, especially when you have dark hair. That is why it's a good idea to invest in some eyebrow paint.
Instructions
Find the Right Colors
1. Browse the cosmetic counter or drug store for three different shades of brown eyebrow paint. Pick one that is light, another one that is medium and one that is darker than the other two. There may already be eyebrow paint arranged in a set of three or you can choose three different, but similar colors that are closest to your natural hair color.
2. Browse for eyebrow paint colors that have the right undertones. If you have reddish-brown hair, find eyebrow paint that has red undertones. If you have ash brown hair, look for paint with a grayish tint. If your hair is golden look for shades that have a yellowish cast.
3. Pick and purchase the three that closely match your eyebrow color.
Mix the Brown Eyebrow Paint
4. Place a plastic plate or makeup dish in front of you. Take the three different colors out of their containers and place a small dot-size amount of each color on the plate.
5. Take the eyebrow applicator and dip it into the color that most closely resembles your eyebrow color. Place the applicator into the medium shade and add only half the amount you did for the first color. Place the applicator in the deepest color, and just add a tiny dab of color.
6. Mix the colors on the makeup dish. Apply to the eyebrows. Look in the mirror to check if the color matches the natural color of your eyebrows. Also, go outside into the sunlight to see how your eyebrows look.
7. Adjust the color of the eyebrow paint by adding darker or lighter paint to create the right shade for your eyebrows. When you achieve the right color, seal it by applying clear eyebrow gel.
