How to Shape and Fill your Eyebrows

If the eyebrows are the windows to the soul, then eyebrows are the trim. How much more character does a home have with properly chosen woodwork? In the same way, knowing how to shape and fill your eyebrows to compliment your face structure, will bring out your natural beauty.

Not every face shape can support every eyebrow. If you have stronger features, you will want a fuller, more prominent brow. If your face shape is more delicate, then something softer for the brows is appropriate. Using the guide below will ensure a classic shape that will compliment you.

Step 1: Where should eyebrows start

To find the beginning or inside starting point of your brows, take your brow brush and put it at a vertical line running up your nose. Make a mark where the brush meets your brow bone.

Step 2: Locate end of brow.

To determine the length of your brow, take the brush and place it at the center of your bottom lip. Angle it so it goes along the outside corner of your eye. Where the inside corner of the brush meets your brow, is where it should end. Mark the spot.

Step 3: Find your eyebrow arch.

Next is the arch. To locate the highest point of your eyebrow, take your brush and bring the base to the middle of your lips again. Angle it so that the inside edge aligns with the outside edge of your iris (the colored portion of your eye).

Mark where the brow brush meets the brow bone. The highest point of the arch should be where the inside edge of the brush meets your brows.

Step 4: Connect the Dots

Using the guide you marked out. Connect the inside edge or beginning to the highest point of the arch and then from there to the end. Practice makes perfect here and with the filling technique too.

Step 5: Fill in the eyebrows

Using your brow product, make short, quick strokes to mimic hair and fill in the brows to your desired thickness. Usually a brow is more scarce by the nose, while the darkest, most full portion if going up the arch.

Step 6: Keep in place with Brow wax

Once your eyebrows are to your desired shape and fullness, set them for a long lasting day with brow wax. Wax keeps them well groomed, but still with a soft, natural look. Brush this product up through the brows and towards the temples. Here it a full tutorial on how to use SEINT brow wax.

Brow products I LOVE

There are plenty of different types of brow products, but I prefer the natural look of powders. You can create more natural, thin, hair like strokes with powder and a firm, flat. angle brush.

Try a SEINT eyeshadow and double sided line brush to help create your perfectly groomed brows. Don’t forget your brow wax to keep those brows in place.
