How to get Sharon Stone’s eyebrows

Ever look in the mirror and wonder where your eyebrows are disappearing to? JoJami and I were talking about this and we’ve both noticed that our eyebrows seem to be getting patchy and they are starting to fade out around the middle of our eye.

Just read an article called Beauty over 40: 5 Things they don’t tell you about Aging and apparently this is very common, along with getting hair on your face, having your ears and nose droop, your gums shrink and your hands get veiny and spotty! What’s a gal to do?

Well if you want eyebrows as beautiful as Sharon Stone’s, we’ve found a good brow pencil works well, but you must combine it with some powder. (When a make-up artist first told us this we thought it was a sales job, but since we’ve been using pencil plus powder, we see the point.)

The trick is you have to make sure to  have a light hand and use soft, feathery strokes when applying the pencil or else you’ll get that fake, painted on look all your old aunties had when you were a little girl.

We prefer a color that’s just a tad lighter than our own brow. JoJami is a brunette and she likes Nars pencil in Jodhpur and a touch of brown eyeshadow. I’m blonde and I like Laura Mericer eyebrow pencil in blonde combined with Laura Mercier brow powder duo in deep blonde.

Once you’ve filled in your brows with pencil use a stiff brow brush that is angled at the tip to gently layer some powder over top. Be careful to use just a touch of powder (it’s easy to overdo it) Why bother with the powder? It adheres to the liner and makes your eyeliner stay on longer, plus it gives your brow more of a 3d look instead of being a flat line.

We guarantee that if you start using a little brow pencil and powder and you’ll be amazed how much it gives your face a lift. More defined eyebrows will frame your eyes and bring your face back to life!
