How to Make Skinny Brows Look Full, Natural & Youthful
Are your brows disappearing like mine? As I’ve aged, my brows have become lighter, thinner, and patchier. I no longer have a beautiful frame for my eyes, and my skinny brows are making me look old.
If you are in the same boat, don’t worry. I have a way to fix thinning brows.
I’m partnering with Anastasia Beverly Hills to bring you an easy solution. Here’s how to have fuller, natural-looking brows to look modern and youthful.

ANASTASIA BROW DEFINER & CLEAR BROW GEL
It takes only two simple products to have beautiful brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer, a three-in-one Triangular Tip Pencil, and Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel.
Are you ready? Even a beginner can do this!
BEFORE YOU START – MEASURE YOUR BROWS
For best results, I measure and mark my brows with the Brow Definer pencil. I use Anastasia’s Golden Ratio Method to create the perfect shape.
I measure from:
- the middle of the nostril straight up to above the brow to mark the start of the brow
- the end of the nostril to the edge of the brow to mark the end of the brow
- the middle of the nose diagonally across the eye to mark where my arch should be
3 EASY STEPS TO FULLER, NATURAL BROWS
I give my brows a quick brush up, and I’m ready for the first step.
1. OUTLINE THE SHAPE OF YOUR BROWS
I begin by using the flat side of Brow Definer to outline the shape of my brows, starting from the arch to the tail. Then I do the same from the front of the brow up to where I’ve marked my arch. Defining your arch is what will give you that instant eyelift!
2. FILL AND DETAIL YOUR BROWS
Next, I use the medium side of the Brow Definer to fill in my brows, keeping it a little lighter at the front of the brow to look natural. The tail of the brow should always be the darkest. Anastasia Beverly Hills has twelve Brow Definer shades to choose from. I’m wearing taupe.
After filling, I switch and use the fine tip end of the pencil to detail. I flick up with Brow Definer to create hairlike strokes where hair is sparse. I also blend with the spoolie along the way to even my brows out.
I love using Anastasia Brow Definer because it’s super simple and fast to get definition and fullness. It’s really mistake-proof!

3. SET YOUR BROWS
The final step is to use a touch of Anastasia’s Clear Brow Gel to hold the brows in place and create a polished finish. The secret is to use short upward motions. Then I’m done!

Does the product cover greying brows?
Yes Laurie, I have some white hairs and it covered them!
Any chance you would post this routine in a video? Your brows look great, and I think I could follow along better on a video.
Hi Sylvia, I have added the video to my post about this:https://www.fabulousafter40.com/how-to-create-fluffy-full-natural-brows-to-look-youthful-and-modern/
Would you please share the lipstick that you’re wearing in this post? Such a beautiful color! Thanks!
Hi Lori, I’m wearing my signature color- Coral Kiss – https://rstyle.me/+8hRxtStraYNs5XvTa5Yh6g and my lip gloss is Peachy Plump? https://rstyle.me/+VOJ0MVYfVOa6SpRxa-ntDw
I keep a shot glass filled with castor oil handy, and once or twice a day, I swipe my brows with the oil using a brow brush. Supposedly, castor oil promotes hair growth. My brows are holding their own and might have gotten thicker, so I keep doing it just in case it is working!!
Hi Marge, That seems like an easy solution! Glad to know it works.
I used to get my eyebrows waxed every three weeks like clockwork, but now it’s once a month or even longer. So while I don’t live my thinning brows, it’s saving me money.
I’d also add that starting with a professional brow artist could be a good idea to get the shape and arch. Then it’s just maintenance.
I also put a little highlighter above my arches for added lift. Subtle but miraculous!
I may try the Anastasia BH. I’ve been using Benefit but don’t love the gel.
Hi Dana, Yes give Anastasia a try. What I like is it’s just so fast and easy and the finished look is very natural! The brow gel set everything so perfectly too!
