Hi My Lovelies,
This past week quite a few of you asked me what I use on my brows so I though I would piece together a blogpost on the current products I am using.
4 products you will need to achieve fleeky ass brows:
- A spoolie
- Anastasia Beverly Hills DipBrow Pomade
- Angled brow brush
- Browcote Brow Gel
Step 1: Comb your brows with a spoolie before applying any product. The first third of your brow should be combed upwards pushing the hairs up, then brush the remainder of the brow in the direction of hair growth.
Step 2: The holy grail product I use for my brows is the Anastasia Beverly Hills DipBrow Pomade in the shade ‘Medium Brown’.
Anastasia Beverly Hills DipBrow Pomade – £18
Each pot contains 4 grams of super pigmented pomade and with a choice of 11 different shades theres a suitable colour for everyone.
A little bit goes a long way and you can build it up to your desired intensity. Most days I only use a little with a light hand to achieve a more natural look for daily wear, but when I want to have super on fleek Insta-level brows this is my go-to product. With the amazing consistency of the pomade you will never have to worry about flakiness or fallout.
The only downfall of this product is that it can dry out easily, so you need to be sure to put the lid back on straight after use.
Tip: If yours has dried out, try adding a few drops of beauty oil to the pomade to turn it back to the gel like texture.
Step 3: Taking an angled brush, I dip it into the brow pomade and then I lightly squeeze the brush between my fingers to flatten the bristles and remove any access product. I start by making a line under the brow leaving the very start of my brow free of any product for now. I continue by then creating the arch and tail of the brow. Using the remainder of the product on the brush I fill the brow in creating thin strokes.
I brush the product upward from the bottom line and then using a spoolie, I brush the product over to the start of my brow for a gradual faded look. I finish off by brushing the remainder of the brow to shape and distributing the product evenly throughout the brow.
Tip: Start off with a small amount of product otherwise it will end up looking cakey and your eyebrow colour may become too dark if too much product is used.
You can define the brow with concealer to further sculpt the shape (i don’t do this for daily makeup and will include details in a future blog post).
I do have the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dual Sided Brow Brush (£18) but I choose to use Sephora’s angled liner brush as it is thinner and more precise. I did get this brush about 4 years ago from Sephora but here is a similar one to mine.
Step 4: Browcote Brow Gel
To finish off my brows I lightly coat them with Browcote to set and seal the pomade. This product is super lightweight on the brows, it doesn’t leave the brows feeling wet nor does it dry in flaky.
The brush wand applicator glides through brow hairs and sets your look effortlessly, it is the perfect size meaning the wand holds the perfect amount of product and doesn’t get any onto the skin surrounding the brows. The gel itself is clear so can work with any brow colour or skin tone.
Available from Superdrug for £6.99 or the Browcote website.
Voila, there you have it – fleeky ass brows that will help you slay all day.
