Eyebrows Shaping Tips

• Tweezing the eyebrows is not as simple as it looks like. One of the common mistakes that people do while shaping their eyebrows is to tweeze too much. Over plucking is one problem that most women face and this forces them to wait for months together before their eyebrows grow back.
• One simple trick to shape the eyebrows is to remember that the space between your brows should be equal to or little wider than your eyes. One way in which you can find where your eyebrows should go is to hold a long eye shadow brush to the side of your nose. The point where the brush meets your brow is where your eyebrows should start from.
• One point to bear in mind is to keep the windows open and lights on to ensure that the room is bright. Stand in front of the mirror and check your eyebrows for any trimming. You can cut the long hair at the corners of your eyebrows with the help of a small scissors. This process will not only shape your eyebrow, but will also expose the longer hair strands located at the bottom, within the thickness of your brows.
• If you want to find the end for your eyebrows, move your eye shadow brush diagonally from your nostrils, following the outside edge of your eyes towards your eyebrow. The point where the inside edge of your brush rests is where you should end your eyebrow.
• Another easy step to simplify eyebrow tweezing is to observe and select the hair you want to remove. Apply some white eyeliner on the hair that needs to be cut. This will make it easier for you to locate the area to be tweezed, avoiding the risk of over-plucking.
• Eyebrows should be shaped in a way to reveal a little arch. In order to find the place where your eyebrows should wear a curve, hold the brush parallel to the outside edge of your eyes. The point where the brush meets the eyebrow is where your brow should wear a curve.
• Clean your skin and exfoliate with a gentle scrub to prepare the area for the tweezing process. If you are worried about the pain caused by tweezing, apply some teething gel for babies and brush the eyebrows up and out. This will show you all the new growth as well as the hairs that need to be plucked.
• Exercise some caution while working on the top of your eyebrows. Tweeze out hairs that are outside the shape of your eyebrow carefully without disturbing the shape of your eyebrow. Work on your eyebrows from top to bottom carefully.
• Make sure that you get back and check your work from time to time while working on your eyebrows. It is essential on your part to check your work twice before moving forward to help maintain the shape and to avoid over-plucking.
• Apply some aloe vera gel over your eyebrows once you’re done with plucking. Applying the gel will reduce the pain and redness caused due to plucking immediately.

• Make sure not to force the tweezers into the skin in order to grab really small hairs. Wait until the hair grows in a couple of days. It is then ready for removal.
• One simple trick to avoid pain and redness is by holding the skin tight while plucking the eyebrows.
• Make use of a numbing gel or a spray over the eyebrow area in order to cut down on the pain while plucking.
• Pluck your eyebrows once a month in order to keep them in shape. Plucking them once in a month will also provide a clear picture of the hairs to be removed as it grows.
