Nothing seems to compliment a clean, fresh, summer makeup application like a clean eyebrow.
Scarlett Johansson's brows are perfect for soft summer makeup. Minimal effort but still look in place, and slightly matted.
Dita has a much more defined, and darker brow. Perfect for a pinup and old hollywood glam look.
The beauty about brows is that you can change them according to what look you wish to wear.
The eyebrows can change the entire look of a beautiful makeup application. It can change for the better or worse. In fact one of my pet peeves is to see an amazing makeup with a messy eyebrow. Putting in a little more focus onto the brow will help the makeup come together, and not stand out because hair has oil. It is important to soften the brow by matting it out, so it blends into the other makeup.
A clean eyebrow should look clean, soft, and effortless. You’ll have to start off with a well groomed brow.
Every makeup artist is different but I almost always save the eyebrows for last. It could very well possible be because it’s the area that requires most of my concentration.
Everybody has different brows, I usually begin by combing them up toward the forehead to see if they require a little trimming. I then look for any obvious stubble that might affect the outcome of the brow bone makeup. I pluck the stray hairs out with the clients permission. Some clients are very serious about their brows, as they should be.

Once you’ve groomed and shaped your brow, you’ll want to try different brow products. To see which you feel most comfortable with. There are tons of products to choose from.
Brow wax, Clear Mascara to set Brows, Brow Pencils, Brow Shadows, and the list goes on.
Here are some of my favorite products. I feel these products are great for achieving the best set of brows.
Disposable Mascara Wands are great for proper blending, and brow shaping. Click to shop Naimies Beauty Products.
Benefit has a great Brow Kit Combo of brow wax, and shadow. Available at all Sephora Stores.
Urban Decay Brow Kit is another of my favorites. $29 available at all Sephora Stores.
All MAC brow pencils are top picks. Spiked and Lingering are my top two.
