Product Information

Shaping your eyebrows under the influence of fluorescents or dark lighting is just begging for a bald spot. Only ever tweeze your brows in natural light because, not only will you be able to see stray hairs you’ve never noticed before, but you’ll have a more accurate idea of how your eyebrows are actually looking as you’re shaping them,” says Baldesberger.

Take your precision scissors and trim the brow hairs that are poking out above the main bulk of your eyebrow. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until there aren’t any more hairs long enough to poke above the brow. With this in mind, makeup artist and brand founder Jenny Patinkin tells Insider that "finding the right brow pencil depends on what you're trying to accomplish." For example, folks looking for full, fluffy brows should consider a chubbier pencil. However, if you just want to fill in gaps or sparse hairs, Patinkin recommends using a pencil with a very fine tip to draw hair-like strokes. On the other hand, angled-tip pencils are great for creating "nice definition" around the edges of your brows. Whether you’re attempting to shape on your own or going to a pro, brows should always be custom-built for your individual face,” Bailey says.

Never use a beard trimmer as an eyebrow trimmer. The hair in your brow is different lengths for a reason, and sometimes it helps to cover scars or less dense portions of the brow. Strategic trimming is the way to go when cutting length from the brows.

First, use a brow pencil and find where your brow should start. To do this, begin by following a straight line up from the dimple of your nose to the front of the brow and mark that spot. This is your starting point and will help slim the bridge of your nose and balance your eyes. How to use it: Brush brows up to determine which hairs need trimming, turn scissors sideways so that lower curve is at brow bone. Use the precision tips to isolate and gently lift hair to be cutFinally, mark where your brow should end by following a diagonal line from the outside of your nose to the outer corner of your eye. This shows where your brow should end. Length is important because it gives your face proportion, and you don’t want your brows connecting to your hairline.
