One good thing about bush
In case you haven't been paying attention or haven't otherwise noticed, fuller (albeit bushier) brows with a less severe arch are the trend for the fall. This is a more "natural" look with the iris being the focal point of the arch vs. the pupil. It iso much easier to maintain than the pencil thin, always drawn on brows we have tried to accomplish in the past.
a. the bridge of your nose, where your brows should start (the ban on "uni" has not been lifted, please don't violate this ban)
b. the outer edge of your iris, this should be the highest point of your arch
c. the end of your new more natural brow should end here, grab a pencil and make a diagonal line from your nostril to the corner of your eye. (do not pass this point, trust me it looks drag queenish after this point)
This gives your eyes a more balanced look.Less daily plucking and you can allow a longer time between waxes/threading/other torturous methods used to remove hair.
So what happens when you have either overplucked or have naturally sparse brows (like me) and you want to achieve this look? Simple, you buy it. There are quite a few brow products on the market, from powders to pencils and everything in between. Everyone has to pick what works best for them, but since i'm not a brow specialist like Anastasia, I find that certain product help the brow creation process along quite easily and with fabulous results too.
LORAC Creamy Brow Pencil Dark Brown- $18
I love love love this brow pencil. It's so easy to handle, just a few light strokes and your brows start to fill in instantly, it's soft and creamy, so it's easy to crrect whatever mistakes you may make, and the brush tip helps you brush everything into place. Yeah its a bit on the pricier side, however it last a super long time, because even with everyday use you use very small amounts. (Look I have to tell my self these things to justify the costs) It's actually one of the best $18- $20 you'll spend.
It comes in several shades too! please find one that closely matches the color of your natural hair color, do not attempt to match that clown red weave you're rocking (in violation I might add)

Amazing Cosmetics Brow Gel - $12
I like using brow gel, because it groups together what little hairs you have there, to give you a fuller brow.
I like this gel, because it:
1. works,your newly created fuller brows are sealed in with this gel for a close to perfect finish
2. is clear so I don't look "groucho maxy" with the brown tinted gels on the market.
3. last forever: be careful not to keep putting in a "darkened" brush in there, it'll change the color of the gel. Just dip it really quickly in a makeup remover/brush cleaner and shake off excess before placing the wand into the gel.
