Laura The Eyebrow Expert
Her mom, Marcia Ann, had struggled to fill in her brows so Laura set out to correct that.
BROW-SING LINE STEP 1:
This part takes practice, but stick with it she advised.
Using a brown/black pencil, she did little hair-like strokes, filling gaps where there was very little or no hair.
Pro tip: Outline the brows - this is very important, the bottom and the top of the brow.
"When you focus on outlining you’re able to look at the entirety of the brow, not just the center, skinny part where you have the hair," said Laura.
This will give your brows the coveted fuller appearance while keeping its natural shape.
BROW-SING LINE STEP 2:
With basic brow shape in place, next Laura used a pomade brush to fluff up the hairs, while adding tint at the same time.
This gives the brows a fuller appearance.

- Exercise, stick to a healthy diet, and get enough sleep.
- Don't drink excessively or smoke.
BROWS-ING LINE STEP 3:
Finally, it was time for the finishing touches.
Laura used an eye-brightening pencil, gently accentuating the brow line.
It also helped the eyes pop out and made the arch higher.
Anyone panicking about trying this technique, relax she said.
Don't worry about achieving perfection.
"You do not have to do perfect hair-like strokes. This is okay. Your hair is going every way and I want it to look natural," she wrote.
