The following steps will you get a well-shaped brow, or reshape your brows </p> <h2><strong>Create the line</strong></h2> <p> First you need to determine exactly where your brow should begin. This can be done by holding a make-up brush or a pencil straight up and down against one nostril. The point where the pencil meets your brow is where it should start. The end point of the brow should be just past your eye.</p> <p>You may find that you have a natural arch with which to work with. If you need to create one, however, remember that the arch of your eyebrow should fall directly above the outside of your iris (the coloured part of the eye).</p> <p>Once you have the line, use an eyebrow pencil to fill in the brow area that you want to preserve and start plucking hairs outside the edges.</p> <h2><strong>Pluck</strong></h2> <p> When plucking your eyebrows, you should start by taking out the hairs from underneath the brow. The next step is to work your way from the inside of the brow to the outside, removing one hair at a time. Be careful not to pluck in areas that are already thin enough, and pull hairs in the direction in which they grow.</p> <h2><strong>Brush & trim</strong></h2> <p> Brush your eyebrows upwards using a small brush. If they are too long, use a pair of grooming scissors to trim, but remember to only cut a tiny amount at a time.</p> <h2><strong>Fill in</strong></h2> <p> Once your brows are well shaped, you can use a range of products including brow fixers, pencils and powders, and tinted brow gels to enhance them or fill them in as needed.</p> <h2><strong>Pluck or Wax</strong></h2> <p>Plucking is the best way to shape your eyebrows, but some women do prefer to wax them. However, waxing should be left to a professional to avoid any mishaps that could leave you with half an eyebrow. Some salons also offer 'threading' specialists.</p> <p>The first step of plucking is to apply an astringent such as witch hazel to anaesthetise the eyebrow area. Next, brush your eyebrows into place and then pluck any stray hairs underneath the eyebrow arch and anything else outside the natural brow line. </p> <p>nce you have finished plucking, make sure you rub some soothing cream onto that area.</p> </div> </div> <div id="column3"> <div class="head newsmu">Make up news</div> <div id="news"><DIV id="newsRSS"><img src="../news/rss/news_rss.gif" alt="news" width="119" height="14" border="0" usemap="#RssNavMap"><map name="RssNavMap"><area shape="rect" coords="0,0,48,14" href="../news/index.html" alt="news"> <area shape="rect" coords="55,0,120,14" href="../news/rss/index.html" alt="rss"></map></DIV> <DIV id="latestArticles"> <TABLE cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"> <TR> <TD><A href="../news/2012/May/hairtrade-unveils-daniel-sandler-professional-finish-makeup-92815004.html">Hairtrade unveils Daniel Sandler professional finish makeup</A> - <I>Fri, 18 May 2012 </I></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><A href="../news/2012/May/chemical-found-in-fake-tan-and-cosmetics-may-be-linked-to-obesity-and-diabetes-91604646.html">Chemical found in fake tan and cosmetics may be linked to obesity and diabetes</A> - <I>Fri, 04 May 2012 </I></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><A href="../news/2012/Apr/debenhams-acts-to-reinstate-flannel-as-part-of-a-daily-skin-care-routine-90994103.html">Debenhams acts to reinstate flannel as part of a daily skin care routine</A> - <I>Fri, 27 Apr 2012 </I></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD align="right" class="morebtn"><A id="more" href="../news/index.html">More News</A></TD> </TR> </TABLE> </DIV> </div> <div class="clear15px"></div> <div class="sharing"> <script src="../scripts/_page.js" type="text/javascript"></script> </div> <div class="clear15px"></div> <div id="newsletter-box"> <div class="inside-nb1"> <form action="http://www.makeup.co.uk/newsletter/join.asp" method="get" name="emailbottom" id="emailbottom"> <div class="joinup_hpt">Join the Newsletter</div> <div class="joinup_hp2">Free samples, giveaways & make up forum news.</div> <div class="clearit"></div> <div id="input1_hp"><input name="email" type="text" class="emailjoinHP" value="Your email..." onclick="this.value='';" ></div> <div id="input2_hp"><input type="image" title="Add me" src="../assets/join.jpg" alt="Join"/></div> <div class="clearit"></div> </form> </div> </div> <div class="clear15px"></div> <div class="mpu300"> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">  </script> <noscript> <a href="http://www.ad-net.co.uk/a.aspx?ZoneID=416&Task=Click&Mode=HTML&SiteID=62&PageID=98384" target="_blank"> <img src="http://www.ad-net.co.uk/a.aspx?ZoneID=416&Task=Get&Mode=HTML&SiteID=62&PageID=98384" width="300" height="250" border="0" alt=""></a> </noscript>  </div> <div class="clear15px"></div> <div class="fb-box"> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.ak.connect.facebook.com/js/api_lib/v0.4/FeatureLoader.js.php/en_GB"></script><script type="text/javascript">FB.init("a9d92ba216c544f61a752bf756df9a10");</script><fb:fan profile_id="285697009814" stream="1" connections="0" logobar="0" width="300"></fb:fan> </div> <div class="clear10px"></div>  <div class="google300"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </div> <div class="clear15px"></div> <div class="clear15px"></div> </div> </div> <div class="clearit"></div> <div class="googlefooter"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </div> <div id="footer"> <div class="footergap"></div> <div id="footer-left"> <a href="../sitemap.html">Sitemap</a> · <a href="../about.html">About</a> · <a href="../about.html#advertising">Advertising Information</a> · <a href="../about.html#contact">Contact</a> · <a href="../privacy.html">Privacy</a><br /> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Makeupcouk/285697009814" target="_blank">Join us on Facebook</a> · <a href="http://twitter.com/Makeupcouk" target="_blank">Follow us on Twitter</a> </div> <div id="footer-right"> <div id="copywrite-text"> © 1996 - 2010 Makeup.co.uk.
