GUIDE TO NATURAL EYEBROWS
Step 1
How do I create natural-looking eyebrows?
Powders are always a good bet. The first step is to choose the right powder color, which should match the color of your hair.
An eyebrow stencil will help you create just the right shape, which is perfect for those with little practice or who don't have a lot of time in the morning.
Step 2
Choose the right eyebrow stencil
Our Eye Brow Stencils contain 5 different eyebrow shapes – from a gentle curve to bold definition. Choose the shape that comes closest to your natural brow.
Step 3
How do I use an eyebrow stencil?
Place the stencil over your eyebrows. The highest point of the stencil should be in line with the eyebrow's natural arch.
Fill in the highest point and the outer end of the brow with short, smooth motions. The makeup can be a little more intense in these areas. Next, gently work the brush's remaining pigments upwards, into the front part of the brow.
This will create a natural color gradient: soft & transparent at the front, and more defined towards the back – just like real, natural brows.
Step 4
Highlight under the eyebrow
Finally, you can use a bright eyeshadow to create a subtle highlight directly under the highest point of your eyebrow.
Apply the eyeshadow with a firm brush along the brow bone, just below the hairs. This will "lift" the shape of your eyebrow and accentuate its natural contour.

FAQs
How do I apply eyebrow powder?
The best way to apply eyebrow powders is with an angled eyebrow brush with firmly bound bristles. Gently dip the brush into the eyebrow powder. Carefully tap off excess powder to prevent the makeup from becoming patchy.
Even if you're using an eyebrow stencil, you should always start at the highest point of your brow and work in the direction that the hairs grow. Use the remaining product on the brush to fill in the front part of the brow. This will create a natural color gradient.
What's the difference between eyeshadow and eyebrow powder?
While eyeshadows come in a wide range of colors and finishes, eyebrow powders are designed to match natural brown tones – usually in ashy or neutral shades with a matte finish to go with typical eyebrow colors.
