Natural eyebrows – How to trim and style + tips

Just as fashion and aesthetic trends tend to change over time, the shape and care of eyebrows is also influenced by the moment. Being the frame of the face, the eyebrows may or may not lift the look. Well designed, very thin or marked, there are still those who like to maintain the styles. However, the trend is to opt for natural eyebrows. Slightly messy and simple to do, you can achieve youthful and casual looks through the technique.

Natural eyebrows are nothing new. After all, the look has always been adopted on catwalks and editorials, due to the need to maintain the models’ raw beauty. However, the style was already fashionable in 1980, through Malu Mader, who sported her natural eyebrows.

Above all, the goal is to achieve a beautiful “unfiltered” look, accentuating the natural features of your face. Now that models and celebrities are once again sporting their wild look, having well-groomed and defined eyebrows is essential.

But after all, how do you achieve the look of natural eyebrows? The technique is simple. Above all, you must pay attention to the density of the look, put aside the need to keep them aligned and, if necessary, get rid of the tweezers. For the style to work, you need to trust your thick eyebrows and the way they should lift your eyes. Check out everything you need to know about natural eyebrows below, as well as how to get them and tricks for embracing the trend.

How to have natural eyebrows?

The rule is clear: the more, the better. So, first of all, you need to abandon the notion of always plucked eyebrows. The simple design of the region is capable of giving the optical illusion of lengthening and widening the eye. The more natural, the greater the brightness and openness. Therefore, when observing the shape of the eyebrow, it is possible to notice that its growth always covers the bone structure below. Limited space, therefore, is specific.

In any case, you should not exceed the designated limits. The more hair pulled, the less natural the look will be. To keep them looking beautiful, you just need to remove the excess. Furthermore, always pluck the hair in the direction of growth, with steel tweezers. You should avoid trimming scissors and waxing as they destroy the natural look of your face.

How to trim natural eyebrows

First, you must draw lines on the eyebrow that will act as parameters. This way, it is possible to know what can be removed and what should stay. 3 points are then made: inside the eye, or at the beginning of the eyebrow, in the middle, which is the height, and at the outer end, or “tail”.

• Place a pencil on your face and follow an imaginary straight line from the inner corner of your eye to your mouth, touching your nostril. All hairs outside the pencil design must be removed, as this is the beginning of the eyebrow.
• Then move the pencil diagonally. Go from your nostril to the outer corner of your eye, the tail of your eyebrow. If the hair sticks out, gently remove it. Otherwise, wait for them to grow.
• Finally, to trim the eyebrow height, you need to be careful not to remove more than is necessary. Go diagonally with the pencil, starting from the mouth, to where the iris of the eye is, at the highest point of the eyebrow. Eliminate the strands that come out of this line and you will have more shine in your look.

Makeup for natural eyebrows

Getting natural eyebrows through makeup is very easy. You won’t need anything other than setting spray or a colorless mascara. Using an eyebrow brush, apply the setting spray and comb the strands upwards. If the area has many flaws, just make the necessary lines with a thin pencil, without marking too much. The only difference with mascara is that its hold may be shorter.

Soap brows

Have you ever heard of soap eyebrows? It’s the new trend among bloggers, called “soap brows”. Using soap, it is possible to create the desired natural and messy eyebrow effect. The way to do it is the same as with a setting spray: with an eyebrow brush, dip some glycerin soap in it and rub it gently. Finally, just comb your eyebrows upwards.

Tricks to have natural eyebrows

For those who are used to thinning their eyebrows during waxing but want to stick to the look, you need to be patient. After all, in order for the look to work, it is necessary to always keep them full and in their natural shape. However, there are some tricks that can make the process easier until you can get there.

1 – Give your hair time to grow

This is the ultimate rule for achieving the look of natural eyebrows. Store your tweezers well for a few months and don’t even think about trimming them without a professional. The longer it takes, the more the hair should grow, repairing even possible old flaws. Remember that the goal, above all, is to declutter your style. If it is too difficult to deal with the wild appearance, remove only the most necessary excesses, those that should not compromise the shape.

2 – Non-visual Invista

Investing in your look doesn’t mean you need to buy something to keep it looking the way you want. In addition to abandoning the tweezers, you need to pay attention to details, using makeup tricks to make your eyebrows even fuller and more beautiful. There is a right way to comb your hair, align your hair and highlight your arch. Often, even a light scissor cut can be responsible for saving the look.

3 – Hit the arches

One of the most important details for a good natural eyebrow is to have a thicker arch design, with a few millimeters of extra hair. The excess hair should be especially on top, so that you can create a chic messy style. Once this is done, you only need to trim the shape when necessary.

4 – Use makeup

For those who need to wait a while for their eyebrows to thicken the way they want, makeup works perfectly to cover any flaws. Therefore, a pencil or eyeshadow suitable for the region works equally well, correcting flaws and giving more volume. However, don’t overdo it and don’t use too dark tones, like eyeliner. After making the design, just comb the hair upwards or use hairspray.

5 – Use highlighter

Highlighter is a powerful ally when it comes to defining your eyebrows and lifting your eyes. The resource is unbeatable for a natural look, being necessary to apply just a little below the arch, right on the prominent bone, and also on the outer corner.
