It's all well and good finally figuring out how to get the perfect shape for your brows, but which product do you choose? Brow pencil? Brow powder? What about brow gel? Or do you use everything? What about concealer? Here, I explore the products you need.

Brow Powder

I love using brow powder because I find that it gives excellent hold. There are a couple pencils that include brow pencil on the top of the pencil and if I were you, I wouldn't bother with those, simply because the powder doesn't really have anything to adhere to. Look for a brow powder kit that includes brow wax, a couple different colors of powder, a pair of precision tweezers and a mini angled brush and you'll be laughing. 

I picked up my kit in a beauty box and it actually only retails for £2.99, but I had a look around and it had pretty much unanimous great reviews from beauty bloggers across the UK, so take a look and see if you can find a similar kit and see how you get on. I'm definitely going to be buying a new one of these when mine runs out!
 
Use the side of the flatter brush to apply a little bit of the clear wax. You only need a little bit. This is for shaping your brows. If your brows are sparse, spread the wax down into the areas that you'll be drawing the brows down to, so that the powder has something to adhere to. Then, using the angled brush, dip it into the powder and fill in the brows using little feathery strokes, as shown on my hand below. Keep going until you've filled in both brows. If you like, you could leave it here. Your brows look fuller and thicker. For me, because mine are particularly sparse after years of over-plucking, I need the brow gel just to help the hairs look a little bit thicker and fuller. I brush the brows from the inside out, in the window wiper motion, then brush them the right way into place. I just use the end of my 2-in-1 brow gel to keep everything in place.

Brow Gel

If you're a lucky lady with gorgeously full brows, you might just be able to get away with brow gel and brow gel alone. If you are that lady then know this — I envy you so! You can just brush through your brows backwards using the window washer motion, then even them all out again. I know that there are some gels available with little fibers, but you'd need to have brows that are at least the right shape, because otherwise — if your brows are shorties like mine — you'd have thick brows but they'd end far too quickly and you'd need to fill them out with pencil anyway and they might not match etc, etc, etc. 

Hightlighter

Another way to boost those brows is with highlighter: pop a little bit on your browbone and blend out, a little bit under your brows and blend out, making sure that you don't get any in your brows themselves. It works in the same way that contouring works — highlighting those areas and making the darker areas, i.e. your brows, stand out more.
