]]> 10222 2 36 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/36.jpg Look into mirror Look at yourself in a mirror that’s well lit and preferably magnified.

]]> 10223 3 41 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/41.jpg Brush eyebrows Brush your eyebrow hair down using the round brow brush and cut the hairs that extend below the natural brow shape.

]]> 10224 3 49 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/49.jpg Mark beginning Place a brow pencil vertically against one side of your nose. Mark where the point hits the inner side of your eyebrow, which is where your eyebrow should begin.

]]> 10225 4 59 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/59.jpg Mark end From the side of your nose, swing the top end of the brow pencil diagonally until it’s aligned with the outer corner of your eye. Mark where the inside of the pencil hits your brow, which is where your eyebrow should end.

Mark where the inside of the pencil hits your brow, which should be the top of your brow arch.

]]> 10227 6 87 Tip If your brow arch is too close to your nose, you’ll look surprised; if it’s too far, you’ll look angry.

]]> 10228 7 94 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/94.jpg Mark other brow Move the pencil to the other side of your nose and repeat, marking where your brow should begin, end, and arch.

]]> 10229 8 102 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/102.jpg Draw ideal shape Draw in the shape of your ideal eyebrows with a brow pencil, using the guiding points you just marked.

]]> 10231 10 121 Tip Holding your skin taut as you tweeze will help minimize the pain, and so can rubbing an ice cube on the area afterward.

]]> 10232 11 129 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/129.jpg Pluck underside Pluck hairs from the underside of your brow to thin and arch it. Don’t bother plucking from the top of the brow unless you have a very short forehead.

]]> 10233 12 138 Tip Always consider the natural features of your face when shaping your eyebrows. A delicate, thin shape may be suitable for soft features. For more prominent features, a thicker pair of eyebrows may be more complementary.

]]> 10234 13 151 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/420/151.jpg Repeat on other brow Repeat on your other brow, taking care to match it to your shaped eyebrow.
