Our tips for perfect eyebrows
Coralie Techer
Because we owe all the harmony and structure of our face to them, here are the infallible tips for taking care of our eyebrows.
Beautiful eyebrows mean eyebrows that are in great shape: full, well-defined and well-colored. Obviously, it's best to keep your eyebrows as natural as possible, but if you've made a few mistakes in the past (over-plucking, tattooing...) there are some good back-up solutions to keep your eyebrows looking perfect every day.
Before we move on to the best tips for perfect eyebrows, did you know that beyond their aesthetic aspect, eyebrows also play a major role in protecting our eyes? These two major organs are very fragile and would quickly be attacked by external pollution if it weren't for eyebrows. These two hairy lines form an effective protective bulwark against dust, sweat and even the sun... So many reasons why they too deserve to be pampered, don't they?

Tips for maintaining perfect eyebrows
As you can see, eyebrow care is a must! To keep them looking and feeling beautiful, here are a few tips to follow carefully on a daily basis.
Moisturize your eyebrows
Beyond their ideal shape, eyebrows also need to be well contained. To achieve this, nothing beats good moisturizing to keep hairs strong, full, shiny and supple. Yes, even our eyebrow hairs can suffer from breakage and dryness, just like our hair. After all, they have virtually the same composition... How do I moisturize my eyebrows? It's not complicated, and we've got the solution right here with our ROSEBROW serum, specially formulated to provide eyebrows with the moisture and nutrients they need to regrow hair and maintain their shine and suppleness. Apply in the morning before make-up and in the evening before bedtime, for complete care.
A light hand on hair removal
You can never wax too much... If you do, you run the risk of not being able to regrow lash hairs, even with external help like serums! The best tip is to always pluck the hairs that extend beyond the defined line. You don't want to go any further - it's not necessary anyway.
Apply the right waxing techniques
Si on épile ses sourcils soi-même à la maison, alors il faut toujours utiliser une bonne pince à épiler (les embouts crabes sont les meilleurs puisqu'ils permettent une meilleure prise du poil). On arrache toujours les poils des sourcils dans leur sens de pousse afin d'éviter qu'ils ne se cassent, s'incarnent à la repousse ou pire, poussent dans tous les sens... Le bon tips ? S'épiler après la douche. Les pores de la peau sont plus dilatés et permettent aux poils de sortir facilement.
Toujours, brosser ses sourcils
Using an eyebrow brush, get into the habit of smoothing the hairs in the direction of growth and always upwards. This not only gives the eyebrows a tidy look, but also lifts them (like a browlift) for an awakened look. The brush can also be used to smooth off excess make-up and clean dust from the eyebrow hairs.
How to apply eyebrow makeup?
Once you've mastered the right techniques, it's time to perfect the look of your eyebrows with make-up. With a special eyebrow pencil, blush or mascara.
Intensify the line
For successful eyebrow make-up, the emphasis is on the line. It has to be clean and precise. Always choose an eyebrow pencil, blush or mascara in the exact color of your hairs. A tone above may harden the eyes and facial expression, a tone below may erase them... A good tip? Add light to accentuate the line. How? By applying a touch of illuminator under the eyebrow, either with powder highlighter applied with a fine brush, a dedicated pencil or iridescent eyeshadow!
Fixing make-up
For eyebrow make-up to last all day (or all night), it needs to be set. Use a fixing gel or wax applied with a brush, always in the direction of hair growth and always upwards. As with brushing or the more technical browlift, fixing the hairs upwards will enlarge the eyes and have a lifting effect on the eyelid.
Go for permanent make-up
Perhaps you're lazy enough to go through the eyebrow makeup process every morning... That's understandable. If you don't want to carry around a pencil (and waste time when you're in a hurry), there's permanent make-up! It really is the ultimate solution for keeping brows on fleek all day, all night and all year round.
Microblading , microshading, dyeing... The choice is wide, but we always make sure to be well advised as to what suits us best and above all, we avoid tattooing. In addition to being old-fashioned, tattoos age very badly (they turn blue) and are painful to remove.
