The use of undone brows in our makeup routine aids a more youthful appearance by softening our facial features.
Here are ways to get the right balance in achieving gorgeous undone brows:

When it comes to getting a natural undone brows, the best way to start is by combing to help tame errant hairs to give the brows a fuller appearance, and combing in upward direction is the secret about it. Use a dry spolie brusee Jane Iredale Deluxe Spoolie Brush ($10). It will help tame errant hairs to give the appearance of fuller brows.

The next step is the use of brow waxes and gels which are great to avoid a messy look when styling undone brows, it can be applied in a upward motion. If you have coarser brows then both gel and wax will be needed while finer brows only need gel and finally, if you’re with sparser brows then tinted gels will do the magic. The use of Sephora Collection Eyebrow Editor ($19) is a great tool option to achieve this.
Define but Don’t Overdo It
