Ok… let me start this with a shocker… I had my eyebrows threaded for the 1st time after I got engaged… shocked??? well between my over-strict father and my meddly relatives It was the most neglected feature on the face:(
These days brows are a very important factor in grooming and make-up and is proven to frame a face better…. I used to literally never -as in – never do anything with my brows and no when I think about the times I feel like such a noob.
I started using eyebrow pencils a year back but was not s o happy with the results… maybe it was the way I applied but we didn’t really have much options back then. I remember for a complete century only Lakme brow pencil ruled the world!
I read about brow kits on blogs and some of my blogger friends raved about it so much.. Actually- I saw the drastic difference in the face and I was really impressed.. Then again- there was the shade search because I have very dark, almost black brows and most of the brow pencils/powders I saw bordered around brown – i.e brunette hair.
Imagine my happiness when I saw this Ardelle kit with the perfect dark shades – it felt its been made just for me- Ok! for dark haired chicas like me

How I groom my eyebrows with it:
If you have seen my earlier piccys, my brows are quite unruly and on the thicker side (yayyyy I’m in fashion…) so mending them is a bit of a task. ok, let me show what they look like:
If you have seen my earlier piccys, my brows are quite unruly and on the thicker side (yayyyy I’m in fashion…) so mending them is a bit of a task. ok, let me show what they look like:
1) I apply the highlighting powder outining the brows using the buff brush: like so :
2) The I take the charcoal shade with the slanted brush and with light feathering strokes apply it on the brows in the direction of the hair.
3) Take a spoolie brush and brush the eyebrow hair.
TIP: If you’re going to a party or event, you can spray the spoolie with a hairspray to keep them tamed for a long time.

4) Now, blend the highlight shade into the skin so there are no obvious lines.
Since I started doing this , I can say that my face looks better framed and now while going out , even if I don’t apply any make-up, I groom my brows. I feel this makes me look more put-together.
