Eyebrow Pomade - Framing your Face

Eyebrow Pomade - Framing your Face

Eyebrows, so important for framing the face, but the shape, texture and length is so dictated by the movement of the fashion industry. You just need to remember the pencil thin eyebrows from the 90's to the thick caterpillar stye of recent years. 

As we age our hormones impact hair growth on the body and sadly our brows often thin and for some women disappear, only reappear on our chins... what's with that???? 🤣

I recommend you pick the shape and style of eyebrow that you feel best suits you, the key is to use your makeup to feel more confident, not follow the latest trend.

Here are some tips to make you feel more confident as you apply your brows: 

  • Brush them with diagonal strokes that go up not down.  As we age our skin slowly drifts down so we want to keep the energy flowing diagonally up. 
  • Use the thick part of the brush at the front of your brows and then turn the bush so you are sweeping diagonally up wards with the thin edge of the brush.  
  • Don't paint them in a full curve, stop the curve about a finger width past the edge of your eye and lightly feather it at the end. This stops you face from looking droopy. If you curve it too far it makes the eyebrow in to a downwards pointing arrow. 
  • Follow the bone line not the line not the hairs on your brow. This is to combat sagging. My mum is 84, so when she does her brows she tends to stay at the top of the hair line as this follows the brow bone, not the skin. 

I love my eyebrow pomade, its quick and easy to apply and you can swim with it, and it wont sweat off.

When using my pomade start lightly and then build it up to get your desired depth of colour. You may what to go heavier for more dressed up events.  

If your pomade had gone hard (which is what the ingredients do over time) you can add a drop of oil (olive, almond, jojoba or what ever you have on hand) to the top and then mix it through and it will revitalise it.
