Step 1: You will need:

  • a light brown eye shadow
  • a small, short bristle eye brush
  • use a nylon brush. It's a firm brush to apply the eyebrow powder with ease.
  • and some eyebrow gel

Step 2: Choose a color

Unless you have very dark hair stick to lighter colored eye shadow like taupe or soft beige. If you are fair, blonde, or grey, use a warm beige. For darker hair colors, use a darker brown but never use black as it will look artificial.

Don't ever use an eyebrow pencil to draw in a line, it will look hard and unnatural.

Step 3: Fill in the brow

Use a small, short bristle brush to comb some eye shadow make-up through your brows. Eyebrow powder is an acceptable alternative.

Step 4: Set

Keep them in place with some eye brow gel. Starting from the inside, working outwards, run the wand through the brow.
