Brows are the Gateway to Your Face

 

Brows are the gateway to your face. They create a balance, and without them, you can look older and certainly less noticeable.

Here a couple of things to know about brows.

Like fashion, brow styles change.   Right now, full, triangle brows are all the rage.   Here is a link where you can see how brow fashion does change. 

When you shape your brows, there is a beginning point and an end point. Most people have brows that “wimp out” before they “should” on the outer side. Check out the diagram.

When shaping your brows, please don’t stress because your brows don’t match. Remember, brows are sisters, not twins. 

I am not a fan of brow tattoos. Over time, they can discolor. That’s the least of it. As I mentioned before, brow fashion changes and you don’t want to be stuck with a brow shape you no longer like. 

If you like the idea of tattoos, I would advise for a thinner shape. It is easier to use makeup to enhance them. 

I choose makeup for my brows. Its very simple. First, I shape the brows with eye defining pencil. Second, I finish the look with brow tint. 

I do change the color of the tint. When I want to look dramatic, I use Dark Brunette. When I want to soften the brow, I use Blonde. Take a look a the video.

 

 

I had a client who wanted a bronzer. Mary Kay often has one on their limited-edition line.  For whatever reason, they have not had one for seasons.  Personally, I think that’s a failure.  I often get requests for bronzers.

This is a perfect example of making lemonade from lemons.  I created my own bronzer, and…I also customized a bronzer for cool or warm coloring. 

Not only do you get a bronzer, but you also get a contour color, a blush color, and even better?  You can use these two colors for eye shadow. 

For your personalized makeup lesson, I can meet with you in person or via zoom.  These sessions are fun and FREE! 

You can book a time with me right from this page.  I’ll look forward to it.
