Tips on How to Pluck Your Own Eyebrows

Trends in eyebrows come and go and for those that love cosmetics and follow the beauty trends, knowing how to care for your eyebrows is just as important as caring for your skin. Just think of all of the different looks the eyebrows have had in the past – Super skinny, Nonexistent, Drawn On, Super full and thick. Today thankfully, healthy natural looking brows that are nicely shaped to your facial structure are what are in and fashionable.

Eyebrows are one area of my face that I have not really been comfortable caring for on my own. Luckily my brows have always been decent, until recently. So in learning how to care for my own, I thought sharing some tips for others would be helpful. So, if you have never plucked or cared for your brows, here are some tips and steps to take so you have the beautiful brows that look natural on your face. Step 1: Wash and dry your face using a good moisturizing cleanser. Make sure you wash the eyebrows and pat them dry. Step 2: Using an eyebrow brush or your fingertips, brush your eyebrow hairs gently upwards and out. Step 3: You can purchase an eyebrow stencil or use an eyebrow pencil to draw in the shape of the brow that you want. You then want to pluck out all of the hairs that are outside of the stenciled area or outside of the lines that you drew using the eyebrow pencil. Note: You never want to go overboard the first few times of plucking your own eyebrows. It is easier to pluck more hairs away than it is to draw them back on. Plus they are slow growing hairs, so over plucking can cause you to have to wait for months before they grow back in. Step 4: Once you are done plucking your eyebrows, dab a little facial moisturizing cream onto them and the skin round them to help soothe any irritation that you caused. Be very careful to not get any lotion into your eyes. If necessary, you can also apply a warm damp cotton cloth to the area for a few minutes which works just as well. These simple steps will help you create the beautiful eyebrows that your face deserves. Get some wow factor with your look by caring for your eyebrows simply.
