4 ways your brows can age you

You trim your hair, slather cream on your face and file your nails, but what have you done for your brows lately? Like your skin and hair, your brows can start to show their age. Just as a new hairstyle can trim away the years, a well-groomed, well-defined brow can lend your face a fresher, better kept look. Here are four ways to get your brows back in shape.

1. For vanishing brows

Use a brow powder to fill in patchy spots and make the arches or your eyebrows look thicker. This will immediately restore fullness to your face.

2. For disappearing tails

Use an eyebrow pencil to gently fill in the lengths of your eyebrows in a sweeping motion, going with the direction of the hairs.

3. For greying brows

Our tip here is to flaunt them! Especially if your hair is grey, why wouldn’t you want your hair to match? If it really bothers you though, you can ask your hairdresser to dye your eyebrows. Avoid home jobs for this one.

4. For overgrown brows

So you have luscious brows that are overgrown? Good for you. Your best option is to trim, tweeze, and set hairs in place for arches that are under control. After styling, finish with a clear brow gel to set hairs in place, while also darkening them.
