Raising Brows

As we age the brows can droop. There are a couple of safe, non-drug, inexpensive, non-invasive options to raise the brow. Proper shaping, microcurrent, a little brightening powder at the peak of the arch. 

  • Proper shaping includes waxing, tweezing, trimming, or threading by a trained professional. Waxing and threading shape the brow by removing obvious hairs but also that fuzz which shows up under eye makeup. Tweezing allows for the "fine work" of shaping. Fine trimming can get the brow to lay the way they should. 
  • Microcurrent can tighten the skin, build collagen and lift those brows. Eyes only microcurrent, in the hands of a trained expert, can work wonders inexpensively with results being progressive and cumulative.
  • Line just beneath the brow with brightening powder.
  • Use brow powder instead of pencil which tends to look a little harsh.
