Lets Talk Brows!!!

When it comes to eyebrows...lets just say, I am a bit challenged in that department. God must of left out some eyebrow ingredients when He was creating my genetic code. LOL! Maybe not! The full and perfectly ached brows that I am constantly sporting are the results of a good brow pencil, an eyebrow kit and some clear mascara. Yes, ladies I fake the funk! My natural eyebrows are less than stellar. They are thin, sparse and short!! Now, while I like to tell women to 'rock' what God gave them, this would be a very very minute exception.

I wanted to create a video detailing my instructions of how to 'fake' the ideal arch. However, after careful consideration, I decided against it. Reason being there a bunch of really good tutorials out there already and why create another video just to get lost in the bunch? A bit of an optimistic, aren't I? Lol!

The tutorial that I like and from which I draw I draw tips from was created by Tina from TheFancyFace. I absolutely love this video, she details everything from her grooming techniques to her application process. The results are perfectly arched, natural looking set of brows.
