Brow Mapping: The Key To The Perfect Eyebrow

Brow Mapping, The Key To The Perfect Eyebrow By Barbie's Beauty Bits.

A great frame can take an ordinary picture to a different level.  I view your eyebrows as such. Your eyebrows form a frame around your eyes taking them from Plain Jane to Glamorous Brow in 3 easy steps.  These steps are called eyebrow mapping.  Now there is really no map, but rather a method to defining the perfect shape of your eyebrows, by determining where your brow starts and where it ends.  There are 3 points to this map, when all connected will form a v shaped arch (with softer angles) for the perfect brow. 

Start with the corner of your eye, closest to the nose to measure the starting point of your eyebrow.  Place your eyebrow brush or pencil vertically from the inner corner of your nose to the inner corner of your eye... Place a vertical line here indicating the start of your eyebrow.

Point 2: The Arch: Align the brush horizontally from the tip of your nose to the outside center of your pupil or the middle your brow bone, place a dot.  This is the arch & the highest point of your eyebrow, so keep this in mind when placing the dot.

Point 3: The End: Align the brush from the outer corner of your nostril to the corner of your brow to place your final mark.

Once you have completed, you want to connect the dots or lines and fill in the brow with tiny strokes; think of tiny hairs and blend.  Keeping in mind that if you have over plucked or waxed throughout the years, that you may need to fill in some areas to extend your brow to the end line. Finish with your favorite eyebrow kit and viola you've created the perfect eyebrow.
