Instant face lift!

Frame your eyes with a natural arched brow and you will instantly look 5 years younger!


The perfect frame for every face! Classically beautiful, shaped eyebrows complete your makes and emphasize your individual type.

Think strong, powerful brows with a classic shape with an arch towards the outer corners or if you have naturally straighter brows shape with a slight curve. This brings attention up as opposed to down. A clean, full brow makes the rest of your make up pop.

For the most flattering shape, your brows should reflect the angles of your cheekbones and jawline. Keep them straight up to the arch, then pluck a tapered line through to the tail.

Beware the over plucked  tadpole or clown like golden arches. These eye brow shapes will do exactly the opposite making you look 5 years older and the eye lid appears heavy and puffy. The skinny brow is very ageing and severe.

 To determine the inner edge the starting point should be in line with the inner corner of the eye and nose bridge. If the nose is wide you will need to bring the starting point a little closer inwards to bring the face into balance and make the width of the nose appear smaller.




The highest point of the arch should be in line with the outer edge of the iris.


The tail of the eye bow should finish in line with the angle from the tip of the mouth, along the outer corner of the eye and  towards the temple.


Brow Essentials: Shape and arch your brows like a professional. 


What you will need

* An eye brow pencil - To fill in any gaps, softly feather in the direction of the growth of the hair.

* An eye brow powder -  A matt powder one-two shades darker than your natural hair colour will give you a softer, more natural look than a pencil.

* An angle brush -  For a natural result, brush brow powder upwards into the hairs or to soften the intensity of  a brow pencil.

* An eye brow clear gel  - Comb a clear gel through the hairs for added definition and to emphasize the arch as well as to hold them in place.

* A highlighter -  Applied directly underneath the arch and blended this will show off your perfect natural arch to make these areas pop.

Pro tip: If you applied a little too heavy, use a lash brush or disposable mascara wand  to brush through the hair, This loosens block colour and easily softens the style.

ARTDECO Tutorial:

 In order to achieve your chosen shape, use a clean pair of tweezers to remove superfluous hairs, working in the direction of growth. The arched shape suits every face; 2/3 of it goes upwards in a fine arch (the highest point), and then 1/3 downwards.



(1) For perfect eye brow make up, use the Eye brow Colour Pen or 
Eye Brow Designer to color any thin eyebrow areas. Always work from bottom to top: from the beginning of the eyebrow to the arch, and then down to the tip.

(2) Fix your eyebrow make-up with  Clear Lash & Brow Gel.


(3) If your eyebrows are light, then we suggest to use Eyebrow Powder. The best way to apply it is with an Eyebrow Template.
