One of the biggest concerns brides have in the run up to the wedding day is how to get their eyebrows in good condition, particularly if they have over plucked or had a bad shaping experience in the past.
My first piece of advice is to take 8 weeks to let them grow out. Resist the tweezer and see how much growth you can encourage. There are some serums and lotions you can get to help growth along - the jury is out on how useful they really are but some have better results than others. Try Rapid Brow or Prevage Clinical Lash and Brow Enhancing Serum.
Next up is to find a really good salon to get your shaping done. I strongly recommend threading. preferably by someone who has been doing it for a long time and ideally someone you have a recommendation for. If you are in the Limerick area you have to try Nesha's Threading Bar in Catherine Street - she is amazing and really listens to what you want and its over quickly and easily.
I'm not a big fan of waxing as I think its too harsh and pulls the delicate skin around the eye and can cause sagging eventually.
Now that you have the shape you want, its all about maintenance and making any small tweaks that might be needed using brow powder. I much prefer powder to pencil as I feel it looks more natural but make sure you pick a shade that works. A good idea is a brow palette which allows you to experiment and find the most suitable shade for you. It also means you can use more than one shade as very few brows are the exact same colour all the way through (avoid solid black scary brows at all costs!)
Try the Crownbrush brow palette.
