How to Get Supermodel Brows

Eyebrows are one of the most important features on your face, and they are often ignored. They truly do frame your face. Want to look angry? Furrow your brows…want to look surprised? Raise your brows. The list goes on. 

I never paid attention to my brows when I started wearing makeup, up until I was probably 25 years old. Yikes!

First things first – if you’re not big on makeup, I highly recommend Henna for your brows. I actually just tried it for the first time, and as a person with blonde brow hair, it has been life-changing. Note: dying your brows is no illegal in California among other states. Asking for dye on your brows could result in a huge fine for the salon…and they’ll probably caution you against it anyway.

I also wouldn’t recommend Henna’ing or shaping your brows yourself. You could end up looking like Frida Kahlo… Ok, she did rock them well! Or worse, the sperm brows. 

On to the next step in getting supermodel brows.

By the way, Henna is totally optional. That is just an added bonus. 

Once you have your brows shaped by a professional (and maybe henna’d), on a daily basis:

1) Use disposable eyebrow/eyelash brushes to brush your brow hairs up, towards your hairline before applying any eyeshadow or brow products. This really opens up the face and gives you an instant brow lift! I use these.

2) Apply light strokes of a brow pencil in the direction of your hair growth. I like to start at the top of my brows and work my way down, towards my eyelid. I use this pencil from Anastasia Beverly Hills. Starting at the bottom makes them look droopy from my experience.

3) Lightly brush your brows (up) again after using your brow pencil to soften the look.

4) Ok, this is my new FAVORITE brow product. Apply a colored brow gel which matches the color of your pencil (I HIGHLY recommend this one) to your brows in upward, small motions. This will give your brows that Gigi Hadid/supermodel look. THIS gel coats those lashes that don’t get “picked” up using a pencil, and it separates the brows from each other to give you a really natural “I woke up like this” look. Basically, no Instagram brows here.

Now I want to know: what are your brow tips and go-to’s?

a few ways that getting dressed/fashion is spiritu a few ways that getting dressed/fashion is spiritual:

1. experimenting with what you wear can help you see yourself in a different way & provokes inspiration.
2. Getting dressed in the morning is a way to have fun by expressing your beautiful soul for everyone to see. 
3. when you feel confident in what you’re wearing, you FEEL good.

my style evolution: I used to wear a lot of black & shunned expressing my femininity with the clothes that I wore because I was following trends. NO MORE. now: give me all the feminine LEWKS and colors 🌈

During the first few months of my Z’s life, my body & soul felt burnt out. looking back, it was hard (and still is!) to prioritize just taking a few deep breaths each day. totally not trying to sound dramatic like so many Oprah IG captions 🤣 but it’s the truth.

during a meditation session recently, my intuition called out and invited me to reconnect with my feminine side. I realized I had abandoned much of this ‘side’. this is where the journey of activating my divine feminine energy began for me.  I’ll be sharing bits of my re-discovery here in hopes it will help you overcome the same and step in to your wholeness. 🤍

by wholeness, I mean not DOING IT ALL. being intentional & redefining the feminine experience. 

some of the words I have reclaimed include…

emotional, ease, wild, & healing 

do you have words to describe your feminine energy?

reflecting back on the past year has put into perspective how critical taking the leap and moving to a new place has been for my personal growth and development, and if you’re thinking about moving, this is your sign to do it!

the change of environment has been SO beyond magical for many reasons…it’s taken me out of my comfort zone, given so many new and exciting experiences, and expanded social connections.

Even with other clean products, my scalp was not happy and it’s such a relief to find a product that WORKS that isn’t medicated or full of crap ingredients. so excited to share with y’all as I have always shared my scalp/hair journey and finally feel like my scalp is THRIVING 💖
