(#7) Emphasize The Peak Of Your Brow With Pencil
This tip from celebrity MUA Joey Healy is genius. She shares:
"My favorite trick is to emphasis the brow peak by combing all the hair down above the arch, then making a little triangle of color at the peak [with filler], and finally brushing up the hair to blend and cover that little lift.”
This technique creates the illusion of a more dramatic peak, but since the product is then covered with existing hair, the effect seems more effortless.

(#6) Fill In Any Gaps With Brow Shadow
Next, tackle any gaps in your eyebrows with a natural-looking powder. Milani's Brow Fix Kit is perfect, since it includes two different colors as well as a highlighting shade. You can dab the light color underneath your arch to really make brows pop. Also, mixing brow products of different textures (like wax, pencil, and shadow) will keep your brow creation from looking too harsh.

(#1) You'll Need A Few Different Things
To go from zero to Cara Delevingne, you're going to need a small arsenal of products. Depending on the intensity of your desired look, you might not use all of them. But if you want big, bold brows, the more products you have at your disposal, the better!
The tools:
Brow brush (to groom brows beforehand)
Brow stencils (in case you need help shaping your look)
Scissors (to trim any pesky long hairs)
Tweezers (to tweeze away the strays)The products:
Brow pomade or wax (to create a brow base)
Brow pencil (to shape)
Brow shadow kit (to fill in gaps and add dimension)
Brow gel (to keep everything in place) -
(#3) First, Plot Your Shape
The first step when creating a set of killer brows is plotting the perfect shape. Since your eyebrows frame your face, finding the right brow shape can make or break your entire look. Here's how to do it:
- Grab an eyebrow pencil and line it up with the side of your nose (where your nostrils begin). Wherever the pencil hits on your brow bone is where your eyebrow should start! Make a mark at the starting point.
- Tilt the pencil over the center of your pupil. Where the pencil crosses your brow is right where your arch should be. Make a mark at the arch point.
- Then, drop the pencil down to a 45 degree angle, out toward the corner of your eye. This will give you the ideal end point. Make a mark there.
- If this feels like too much for you, grab a set of brow stencils! E.l.f.'s Stencil Kit is less than $4, and it comes with four different brow shapes to choose from, so you're sure to find the perfect one for you.
Now that you have your shape in place, use your brow comb to brush up hairs in the direction of the hair growth. Trim any outliers with your scissors. Finally, tweeze any hairs that fall outside of your desired shape, but don't go overboard here. You still want your brows to look natural.

(#10) Keep Your Other Makeup Minimal
Now that you've achieved the bold brows of your dreams, let those caterpillars be the star of the show! Look to brow-blessed celebrities for inspiration. Cara Delevingne, Lily Collins, and Camilla Belle all keep their makeup fairly minimal to let their brows shine. Late beauty icon Audrey Hepburn often did the same.

(#5) Fill In Your Brow Shape With A Pencil
Now that your shape is flawless, reach for your brow pencil (try Revlon's ColorStay Brow Pencil). But instead of drawing thick, harsh lines to connect your start point to your arch to your end point, create small, hair-like strokes with the pencil to fill in the desired shape. It may take more time, but it will look so much more natural.
