how to make your eye brows perfect:




If the eyes are the windows to the soul, then the eyebrows are the gutters that stop rain from falling off the roof into the windows.
     You don't notice gutters on a house. Not when they're in good repair, that is. When they start falling down and buckling and peeling, it's hard to look at anything else.
     Grooming your eyebrows can make a dramatic difference in your look, and I don't just mean your style... I mean your overall expression.
     In fact, one of the first tools women learn when studying theatrical makeup is how radically you can change how a character is perceived- from harmless to wicked or calm to terrified- by simply rearranging the brow shape.
     They convey that much meaning. Brows can become the signature of your look; something distinctly unique about you.
     Think of the amazing Frida Kahlo, Bjork or Marlene Dietrich. The eyebrows are significant personal effects, and you're right to want to make the most of them.
     Here's how to get great brows:
     The best looking eye-brows are the ones that look natural. Though most of us go to the parlor to get the brows shaped, you can easily do it at home.
     Put those tweezers down and start by cutting out pictures of eyebrows you admire. Practice on yourself by brushing them up with a firm eyebrow brush, or you can use a clean toothbrush.
     Then, using a white or beige eyeliner, trace over the hairs you might think of tweezing out (to give the illusion that they already are tweezed out).
     This way, you get a feeling for the shape, and can try variations until you like what you see.
     First, brush your brows upward. Carefully trim any excess hair above the top of your arch which appears at the middle. Don't take off too much or else you may be left with bald spots on your brow.
     Now, check the shape properly. Ideally, your brow should begin at your tear duct peak at the outer edge of your iris and end at the outer corner of your eye.
     If your eyebrows are too close to each other above your nose or are too short at the outer edge, you get and "angry look." Therefore, be careful about where they begin and end.
     Sooth the brow area by wiping a cotton ball soaked in astringent over the brow area.
     Hold a pencil in line with the outer side of your iris and note where the peak of your arch naturally occurs.
     From the arch to the outer corner of the eye your brow should fall in a straight or slightly curved line, depending on the look you're trying to achieve.
     Hold the tweezers at a 45 degree angle and pluck the stray hairs below the brow line. Remember to pull the hair in the direction of the hair growth for a neat look.
     The best look is the natural look. So, try to follow the natural contours of your brow when plucking.
     After you are through, just fill in sparse areas with a freshly sharpened brow pencil; use light, quick strokes to draw in hair.
     Creating the most flattering shape and arch for your brows may be challenging, especially if you have missing, fine or very coarse hairs.
     I went through the basics, but do consult with a professional if you feel unsure.
     Of course, how you shape eyebrows is just one single part of your facial and makeup strategies that you should be using to look your best.
