Anastasia Beverley Hills Dip Brow

For me, brows are the most important part of my make up routine. I have very light, sparse brows so I expect a lot from a product - especially if it's from a high end brand. 

I've been filling in my brows for almost 10 years now so I've tried most of the brow products on the market. Never have I used something I love more than this little pomade!

I first bought DipBrow around a year ago and if I'm honest, it took me a little while to love it. The name is somewhat deceiving; or am I too literal? Either way, I dipped my brush into this magical pot and drew two, enormous, wet looking slugs on to my face. Oh.

With a little trial and error I soon mastered the technique. Using a fine angled brush I apply the tiniest amount to the back of my hand - from there it's easier to control how much product is going on to your brows. 

With the gentlest pressure, I draw strokes in the direction of the natural hair and then brush through with a spoolie, alternating between the two until you are happy with the density!

If you're a brow person, I 100% recommend this product - there is literally nothing better...

My brow routine

Brows are a massive thing for me - they're the one thing I cant leave the house without!

I do my brows before any of my other makeup. I feel like you get a more natural result by applying straight on to the skin.

Starting with a spoolie I give everything a good brush. Then using an angled brush I apply Anastasia Beverley Hills Dipbrow (Ash Brown). I start on the bottom, drawing a light line from tail to tip. On the top of the brow I draw a line 3/4 of the way in from the tail.

Fill in between the lines with a little more intensity than you want from the finished brow. When you get to the front quarter, using just what's on the brush, flick up from the baseline so the colour isn't so bold.

 Brush through with a spoolie. This will remove any extra colour and take away any harsh lines. Clean up with a liquid concealer. Brush the Model Co More Brows through to create a fuller texture.

Model Co More Brows

I love brows. The bigger, darker and thicker the better. Only thing is I'm not exactly channeling Cara Delevigne in that area; so I rely on lovely little products like this from Model Co. This fibrous brow enhancer is perfect if, like me, you want more texture in the brow area. 

The colour Medium/Dark is very ashy toned, which I love as too much warmth looks unnatural. The wand has a teeny tiny spoolie on the end which holds just enough product; you can be quite firm with it without creating accidental splodges in your brow.

I apply ABH Dipbrow in Ash Brown until I have my desired shape and colour and then 'clean up' the edges with a liquid concealer. I brush this through my brow twice, once straight after Dipbrow and once after my make up is complete which builds a really natural looking texture.
