I was very happy with my eyebrows thank you very lots, and never used whatever on them. Until I got them tinted by way of Shavata and, after an initial freak-out (Ming the Merciless sprang to mind), I realised my brows had basically been invisible all my lifestyles, and I regarded a good deal higher with them. So now I get a tint at Shavata in House of Fraser each 3 weeks or so, that's retaining them brown in preference to blonde. A stronger forehead has extremely of a face-lifting impact (make-up artist Sharon Dowsett calls them "Spanx for the face"), that's handy at my age, and in addition they give you 'rude fitness' type of appearance, which is going well with dewy skin and ruddy cheeks. Any gaps and strays do show greater now, however it's not anything I cannot repair with a quick tweeze and forehead hair-rearrange the usage of my finger. And if I can't make it to the brow bar before my eyebrows get too light, I whack on a few Benefit Gimme Brow in Medium/Deep, £18.50, and I'm sorted.

I've been through such a lot of distinct eyebrow pencils, powders and gels but the one I always emerge as going back to is Smashbox Brow Tech Trio in Brunette, £17.50.
