MAKE-UP TUTORIAL: HOW TO DEFINE YOUR EYEBROW

 Hello,

How have you been? Is it just me or do you also think this year is flying...lol.

I have been thinking of ways to make my blog more interesting and educative and after tossing and turning on my bed on a certain night, an idea came to mind.

I decided to bring in some other people on the blog to make it more entertaining and educative. These people will write about things I do not know much about or enlighten us better on certain things.

As time goes on, you will understand what I mean a lot better. I really hope you guys like this.

The first contributor is Damilola Popoola, a fantastic make-up artist. As the title of this post says, she will be talking about how you can define your eyebrow.

     

Necessary Instruments:

Eyebrow Definer (pencil); Avon B03 (dark brown) 
Highlighter; Marykay foundation (colour 600)
Concealer brush or eyeshadow brush

STEPS:

Step1: Make sure your eyebrow is perfectly groomed (this can be done using a razor blade or a twizzer) I'll discuss that in another post.

Step 2: Use a pencil that blends with your skin colour (always use a shade lighter than your hair colour). I am going to use an Avon eyebrow definer B03 (darkbrown). Our brow has the under brow and the upper brow (I call it that)...First, measure an angle with your pencil.

Line the under brow with your brow definer (eyepencil) to form "an arc"

Step 3: Repeat the same thing with the upper brow (do not make it too wide so it doesn't look like a mask).

Step 4: Fill in the middle with the pencil with light stokes, so it won't be too dark and it will look natural.

Step 5: I am sure the eyebrow is not too clear at this stage. Some people might like it like this or might decide to go further. We are going to highlight the eyebrow using a foundation; you will use the foundation you normally use. I am using Marykay 600.

Using a concealer brush (or a clean eyeshadow brush) take a very tiny amount of foundation then sweep it gently underneath the brow following the arc

 then do the same for the upper brow and blend it with the brush to the area surrounding the brow.

 The highlighter removes excess brow pencil surrounding it.

Step 6: The brow is now defined.

It may seem long but when you start, you will be able to do this in 5-10 minutes. Make sure you take your time, because the eyebrow defines the face.

I hope you enjoyed this post as much as I did.
