Tutorial: How I Fill in my Eyebrows

Here is my current eyebrow tutorial. This is a highly requested tutorial and I finally was able to do it for you all. It still hasn't changed much from how I've always filled them in except now they're much more cleaner I think. I'm still using my all time favorite wax and brow powder from NYC. All the products I used are substitutable and mostly drugstore items. :)

PRODUCTS USED:
□ NYC Browser Brow Kit

□ NYX Concealer in a Jar (shade beige)

□ MAC Carbon eyeshadow

□ MAC 266 Brush

□ MAC 204 Brush

□ EcoTools angled brush

Updated Eyebrow Tutorial Version 3.0!

I'm back again with yet another updated eyebrow tutorial. I think this is my third time doing a tutorial except it's the same routine as the recent one I had, I just decided to redo them with different pictures. I'm also using the same products listed below. So as you can see I've been using this technique for about a year now and you can tell that nothing has changed!

For those who are wondering, I don't get my eyebrows professionally waxed, plucked, or threaded. I pluck my own eyebrows as often as necessary. I usually pluck them before I start my makeup. I also trim my eyebrows with scissors every few weeks and I shave the tops of my brows for a more clean look. I don't usually have a time when I do trim them I just trim them whenever I feel like they're getting too long. It seems like a lot of steps to filling in my eyebrows but honestly it takes me no more than 5 minutes. Especially if you've been doing them the same way for as long as I have then it's gonna be cake every single time. But anyway, I hope you all learn something from this tutorial. Enjoy!

Tools For Grooming Eyebrows:

→ Tweezers to pluck stray hairs.
→ Eyebrow razor to shave the top of your brows for a cleaner look. It can also be used to shave in between your brows if you have a uni-brow. You can use any brand you like. I bought mine at a dollar store and it works the same as any other kind.

→ Small scissors to trim your brows if the hairs are too long.

What You Will Need To Fill In Your Eyebrows:

→ Spoolie

→ 2 angled brushes

→ N.Y.C. Brow/Eye Liner Pencil in Taupe #927
→ N.Y.C. Browser in Brunette
→ MAC Studio Finish Concealer

Tutorial: 

Here are my eyebrows with no product on them.

STEP 1. By following the natural shape, I draw a straight line on the upper part of my eyebrows, beginning from the inner part and stopping at the arch.

STEP 2. I do the same to the lower part of my eyebrows, stopping at the arch.

This is how it should look like so far.

STEP 3. Fill in between the two lines you just created with soft strokes and keeping the inner part still bare.

STEP 4. Take your spoolie brush (MAC 204) and brush the hairs to create a natural look. This will also bring more color to the inner part.

This is how it should look like so far.

STEP 5. Apply a thin amount of wax and brow powder to your angled brush (MAC 266) and starting from the upper part of your arch, create the tail of your brows.

STEP 6. Repeat Step 5 on the lower part of your eyebrows.

STEP 7. Without using anymore product, lightly shade in the remaining part of your brows.

This is how it should look like so far.

STEP 8. With another angled brush (Sigma E65) take a little bit of concealer and run in under your brows for a clean look.

STEP 9. Repeat the Step 8 for the upper part of your brows.

Finished Brows!

I've gotten many requests as to how I fill in my eyebrows. I've done a post about this once before but I deleted the video because you couldn't hear me talk all that well and I don't really use that technique anymore unless I had no other choice.

If you ever remembered how I did it before, it's pretty much the same thing except I've substituted certain products. There are many ways on how to fill in your eyebrows but this is just how I like to do it. There are no right or wrong ways how to do this so you don't necessarily have to do it exactly the way I did it. But overall, I hope this tutorial helps and thanks for the request everyone! (:

What you need:
an angled brush (I used the MAC #266 brush)
a concealer brush (I prefer a thinner brush for precise application)
brow powder & wax (you don't have to use the wax, I just prefer it. I used NYC Browser)
Concealer (MAC Studio Finish Concealer in NC30)
a cotton swab is optional

Here's what my eyebrow looks like with nothing on it.
I know you can see that I've overplucked in some areas. Haha.

The first thing I do is I dip my angled brush in the wax. A little of this wax goes a long way so only apply a little bit each time. I then dip the brush in the brow powder and I draw a line on the upper part of my eyebrow till I hit the top of my arch.

It should look like this.

If needed, I apply more wax and brow powder to the brush and from the top of my arch I bring it down to the end of my eyebrow.

I repeat the last step on the lower part of my eyebrow.
(I stop only at the arch this time)

With the remaining brow powder left on the brush, I use it to fill in the rest of my eyebrows. (I DO NOT dip the brush in the wax during this step. I notice that my eyebrows will have this waxy buildup if I use it to fill it in).

This step is optional and I sometimes ignore it but sometimes I'll take a cotton swab and run it above my eyebrows to remove any excess powder. This also cleans it up and makes your eyebrows look more neat. (I don't run the cotton swab on the lower part of my eyebrow, that's what the concealer is for in the next step).

Next, I apply concealer underneath my brows. This step is also optional but it's crucial for me. I notice a big difference when I do this step. With any eyebrows, I think doing this will give your eyebrows an even cleaner look especially if you want to cover up any sparse hairs that may be growing. (Don't forget to blend out your concealer and go back with your angled brush if you need to).

And that's pretty much it!! I also apply a highlight color (MAC Nylon eyeshadow) to my brow bone especially if I decide not to wear any other eyeshadow.
