I use MAC's 208 and BE's eyebrow brush. For product I use Anastasia's Ex-press brow kit in Brunette. I prefer the lighter ash color which is available separately.

Your brows look amazing and natural. I'll be stalking this thread for the foreseeable future.

This is great. I will be taking some of your tips.

So for Step 3, you use a powder that is slightly lighter in colour than the pencil? Do you only use 1 eyebrow powder colour or 2?

Thanks so much for doing this, I need a new way to do my eyebrows and this is perfect!

I do only use one color of powder. You don't have to do it this way, just whatever color looks best on you. The darker color in the kit I have is too warm for my liking so I prefer the ashier tone. But I wouldn't be able to wear it w/o also using the pencil because it would look too flat. I like MAC's pencil because it contains enough pigment for me to take care of sparse areas without using a lot of product. Other pencils are usually to transparent pigment wise. I hope this makes sense.

Thanks for the tips. I went and bought the MAC Eyebrow pencil in Fling yesterday and used it today in combination with some brown powder, it worked really well, thanks for the tut.

Awesome tutorial! I also have a problem with my inner eyebrows not growing in, so this is going to come in very handy! Thanks so much for doing this!

wow, ur beautiful and I love ur eyebrows. I wish mine would cooperate like yours do. you make it look so easy. Few questions, though: what shade in the anastasia kit did u use exactly to create the arch? And do u use any brow wax to keep everything looking sleek and in place, and also what exactly were you doing with the q tip to exaggerate the arch?

MacVirgin · 11-10-2006, 03:37 PM #16 (**permalink**)

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.
