I use what they call Brunette 2. It's on the cooler side which looks more natural on me since my eyebrows are really dark. I use Brunette 2 and Stud to create any part of my eyebrow. So my arch is a mixture of both. I'm not sure if you viewed the slideshow, but I believe in the last slide it says I use a spooly with hairspray to keep my brows in place. I prefer this over wax, because hairspray actually holds my eyebrows and wax does nothing but make them waxy  The Q-tip is used to clean up the shape. I don't worry about how perfectly I get the product layed down until the end-which is why I concentrate more on the bottom of my brow than the top-this is much easier to fix. If I think the bottom of my eyebrow is too straight or doesn't have enough arch from below, I can create it by using a Q-tip. I also use it to taper the ends if I feel they are too thick. Then I can go in and adjust the top to create a higher arch etc-with product. Also using the Q-tip helps me to get both of my eyebrows to look nearly the same. They usually look different until I perfect the shape with a Q-tip-unless it's a really good eyebrow day.
