Eyebrow Make Up Tweezing Tips

  Best Make Up Resources

There are several types of tweezers.  Choose the one you need according to the job you have to do.  I think slant-tip tweezers are best for tweezing the brows.  They grip the individual hair well. The slant tip allows a good view while tweezing.  Thin-tip tweezers are good for grasping small, fine hairs, and plucking ingrown hair.  Square-tip tweezers will remove several hairs at once.  So, if you’ve let a jungle develop below your brow maybe these are the best choice!

When and how to tweeze:

• Take a shower first or apply a hot washcloth to the area to help loosen hair follicles.
   
• Tweeze only the hairs that are outside of your natural arch.

  
   

• Apply a small amount of moisturizer before tweezing to help hairs slide out of hair follicles.
   
• To make sure you don’t over-pluck, draw in your desired shape (using a soft eye shadow pencil) first.  Pluck hairs not in that area. 
   
• Tweeze under the brow first, pulling in the direction your hair grows. 
   
• Comb your brows upward and trim extra long hairs that extend beyond the natural arch. 
   
• When finished tweezing you can sooth the area with cool wet tea bags if needed.

Other Tweezing Tips

• Pluck eyebrows before bedtime so any redness will be gone by morning.
   
• Tweeze those stray hairs around your eyebrow weekly.
   
• Removing too many hairs at the outer corner of your brow can give you an angry look.
   
• If you have close-set eyes, tweeze a little more hair between the two brows.  This will help widen the eyes.
