It’s still summer… I don’t care what anyone says. It’s still 90 degrees everyday and I can still sit out by my pool and get a killer tan (with SPF obv). And because it’s still so damn hot it’s almost impossible to put on makeup and expect it to stay longer than an hour. Ditch the make-up and still look flawless by doing this one trick – GROOM YOUR BROWS!
The always fab Lauren Conrad posted this on The Beauty Department and it’s pretty much become my eyebrow bible
Now, I’d like to introduce you to your 2 new best friends: Tweezers and Brow Markers. I’ve been using Brows That Wow Diamond Slant Tip Tweezer by Sally Hansen and I’m having mixed feelings. They work well for my thick hair but I found it difficult to grip my fine hair which was frustrating. However, I did love them for grooming the open areas like between my brows and above them. I had to go back to my old L’oreal tweezers to get the stubborn fine hairs.
To fill in my brows, I’ve been using Touch Back Brow Marker in Medium Brown. This thing is seriously amazing. It’s a continuous flow marker so you don’t have to worry about cranking pigment out or sharpening anything. It has a felt tip end which allows you to create beautfully blended brows without the harsh, hard lines of a standard brow pencil. I cannot rave enough about this product – I totally love it! My brows aren’t very dark so the medium brown color works perfectly.

Here’s a tip from make-up and beauty expert Carmindy for looking flawless sans make-up: “Defined arches frame your face, pulling your features into focus.”
The Sally Hansen Tweezers retail for about $11 and you can get them here.
The TouchBack Brow Marker is on sale for about $20 here - it also comes in many different shades so you’re sure to find one that matches perfectly!!
Love,
