Fix 'em brows!

One day, I was browsing youtube...and I watched a random make-up tutorial (can't remember whose it was). In this tutorial, the make-up artist had said, "Your eyebrows are what define your face." Hmm...that had me thinking. For years, I've never really paid much attention to my eyebrows. Yes, I plucked them and tried to shape them when I was about 15...but really, I didn't care much. After watching that video however, I started paying more attention to my eyebrows. (Funny how I remember this comment on eyebrows, yet I can't remember the video or who said it...)

My brother's girlfriend is really into make-up. Whenever we go out on special occasions, she's usually the one who does my make-up for it. So about a month ago, we went to Ulta together to look at make-up stuff. And I came across a product that has saved me from my eyebrows dilemma.

Anastasia's Brow Express Kit

I really needed something to help me shape my eyebrows because they're a total mess. So I was looking around for some eyebrow stencils. The Anastasia section was the only one who had it. I really only needed the stencils...and they do sell it separately, but sadly, all of them were taken. So I decided to just get the whole kit. I bought mine in blonde because that was the only one left. Haha. But my brother's girlfriend said that the blonde kit is actually pretty universal so yay! :)

The kit comes with brow wax cream (top left), highlighter cream (top right), eyebrow powders (bottom two), five stencils, and a brow brush. It also has this plastic covering for added protection.

Here's a close up on the stencils and the brush:

I've bee using this nearly every day since I've gotten it. And it's perfect for someone who, like me, has oddly shaped eyebrows. Although the stencils are mainly to help you shape so you know where to pluck, I use it to fill in my eyebrows because my eyebrows don't really fit into any of the stencils (I've plucked too much in some areas so there's no hair growing there).

Here are some before & after pics:

I love this brow kit! Now my eyebrows don't look so dull. Hehe. And I totally agree...the eyebrows do define one's face. This product is kind of pricey...around $35. But I love it...and I'm glad I bought it. :)

Much love,
