Your Eyebrows Can Make You Look Four Years Younger by Loretta Moreland

Let’s face it, your eyebrows are the most under appreciated feature on your face. They really don’t get the credit they deserve. They actually have the ability to make you look four years younger. When they are good, they don’t even call attention to themselves. However, if the brows are bad, everybody notices. If they are bushy, they stick out like an angry line across your face. Unkempt ones make your face look severe. To-thin brows that do a disappearing act leave your eyes without the proper framing. The idea is design your eyebrows to make you look younger.

A good brow has a classic, well-groomed shape that is timeless. When women hit middle age it’s time to take the brows seriously and use them to look younger. If they are groomed into a very clean arch that flatters your face, you are set for decades to come. This gives you a more refined, sophisticated look. Of course, as you age your brows naturally thin. Years of tweezing or waxing will eventually weaken the hair follicles. These repeated grooming attempts will scar the follicles, and the hairs grow back more slowly, if at all. The point being, if you get too tweezer happy, your brows may not grow back.

Tweezing Tricks

The following are a few tricks I’ve picked up through the years:

1. Invest in good tweezers. I prefer the slanted type, but you choose what you like best. Be sure to get a good brand.

2. Tweeze immediately after a shower. The warmth of the water softens skin and relaxes pores, so hairs come out faster and easier. Or, you can just press a warm washcloth directly on your brow before tweezing.

3. Apply Anbesol (yes that’s right, the topical toothache anesthetic) to the brow about five minutes before tweezing. It will numb the skin and reduce the pain.

4. Give your brow a break. Tweeze a few hairs from one brow, then switch to the other.

5. Always pull the hair in the direction of hair growth and they will come out easier.

How To Get The Perfect Brow

To look younger, your brow has to match the size of your face and your eyes. One way to determine which brow looks best on you is to use a brow kit. These kits contain stencils; just choose the stencil that’s closest to your real brow shape and line it up on your brow. Using the brow powder that best matches your brow hair, just color inside the stencil. Remove the stencil and remove the hairs that aren’t colored. This works a lot better than the trial and error method. If you remove the stencil and your brow is too much or not enough, don’t tweeze until you like what you see.

Once you have created your perfect brow all you have to do is color it in. You can use the powder that comes with your stencil kit or you can use an eye brow pencil. If you opt for the pencil, make the point sharp and use short, feathery strokes to make your brow look natural. Then, take a stiff, slanted eyebrow brush to a powder to give your brows more definition. Lastly, add just a dab of clear brow gel or tinted brow mascara. Use this sparingly, wiping off any excess with a cotton swab dipped in eye makeup remover.

Now you’re set. get ready for all those compliments. Even though it initially may seem like a hassle, once you see how creating the perfect brow can lift your face and make you look at least four years younger, you’ll only wish you had tried it sooner.
