Start with clean brows
Before beginning any eyebrow makeup application, ensure that your brows are clean and free of any products or oils. This will ensure that your eyebrow pencil can adhere to the skin and hair better. Use a gentle cleanser or micellar water to remove any residue or excess sebum, and pat dry your eyebrows with a towel or tissue.
Use light, feather-like strokes
One of the keys to achieving a natural-looking eyebrow pencil application is to use light, feather-like strokes. Start at the inner corner of your brow and use short, upward strokes to mimic the appearance of hair. Gradually build up the intensity and fill in any sparser areas, but be sure to use a light hand and avoid harsh lines or shapes.
Choose the right shade
Choosing the right shade of eyebrow pencil is crucial to achieving a natural-looking application. Select a shade that matches your hair color and complexion, or opt for a shade lighter for a softer effect. With the right shade, your eyebrow pencil application will blend seamlessly with your natural brow hairs and look more natural.
Blend with a spoolie brush
After filling in your brows with an eyebrow pencil, take a spoolie brush and blend the product into your brow hairs. This will soften any harsh lines or edges and create a more natural-looking finish. Brush the hairs upwards and outwards to mimic the natural direction of hair growth, and use a light touch to avoid disturbing the pigment.
Set with eyebrow gel
To ensure that your eyebrow pencil application stays in place all day and looks natural, set your brows with a clear or tinted eyebrow gel. This will lock in the pigment and keep any stray hairs in place. Use a spoolie brush to comb the gel through your brows and create a polished, natural finish.
