Eye Makeup For Thick Brows

How to do eye makeup for full eye brows

Embrace your big brows. Scrawny eyebrows are usually the sign of overzealous plucking because most women aren't fortunate enough to have naturally thick arches. Instead, we spend a lifetime wishing our short-term tweezing mistakes would grow back, pronto. If you were blessed with big brows, keep your them natural looking and take the time to learn the best tricks for doing eye makeup to complement full brows. Shape your eyebrows in our virtual makeup studio.

The key to doing eye makeup if you have thick brows is to balance your look with the proper makeup tricks. To balance full eye brows like Brooke Shields circa 1980-something, brush them upward with a clean, dry toothbrush or eyebrow comb, fill in sparse areas with a pencil or powder (to define your arch) and keep heavy brows in place with a clear or tinted brow gel. You can sculpt your eyebrows without commitment by uploading a photo to Taaz.com's virtual makeover studio.

Apply a light eye shadow over the entire eye area, from lashline to brow. Pale lilac or pink ought to do the trick, and bone also works for a totally natural effect. Dot a shimmery, stark white eye shadow at the inner corner of each eye and use a violet shadow to build color at the outer corner, sweeing upward and outward in a cat-like fashion. Use black kohl eyeliner pencil on the bottom lashline and black liquid liner on top. These makeup tricks will essentially help you to dramatize the eyes, which often compete for attention with big brows. Your goal is to lift and lengthen the look of your eyes by applying shadow in all the right places. --Stephanie Simons
