I was replaced with a gel liner on recommendation here and it had such an immediate impact on my liner play and symmetry. I love it! CC always welcome and encouraged! I think the eyebrows are my next challenge because I really don’t know where to start …
Ahhh yay you got the gel liner!! Isn’t it such a difference?! It looks SO GOOD on you! 😍
Here’s my second recommendation: I don’t know if you need this because your eyes are closed but maybe you’ve noticed it’s also really easy to get those gaps between your [eyeliner line and your eyelash line](https://dy6g3i6a1660s.cloudfront.net/it9WjyH7QQWzXvgYg2GP1wPUAb0/orig.jpg)? I only learnt how to avoid this in my mid-20s (on this subreddit) and it’s called tightlining. It’s literally just that you have to lift up your eyelid and freaking STAB the “inside” (waterline) of your eyelids with a pencil [like this](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f5/10/18/f510185df788700401e71d8c34b70bf5.jpg) or [like this](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/f2/9a/9c/f29a9c003fb899d5caa3d1359e5649cf.jpg). It makes such a difference!! And if you want to go out but don’t want to do a whole makeup routine, it’s a great little way to make your eyes pop as a ‘no makeup’ look 🙂
For eyebrows, yours look very fair (also like mine). Maybe I’m the wrong person for this because I don’t do much for mine, and that’s because I **personally** don’t like the look of really heavy brows when they’re naturally fair — but everyone’s different! As affordable first forays into it, I recommend either:
– [L’Oreal Brow Artist Genius Kit](https://cocosteaparty.com/loreal-brow-artist-genius-kit-review.html). I honestly bought this in 2017 and… still have and use it. That’s probably gross and I should probably replace it lol. But it works great and I really like it! It’s tiny, it’s cheap, and it does the job. You use left then right; a little gel thing to shape your brows to make them sticky, then the eyeshadow-type thing on top to give them more colour. Then you can brush them with the bristly brush if needed. Comes with a tweezer for last-minute-stray-hair discoveries. Fits in your pocket!
– An even gentler start: something like [Benefit Gimme Brow](https://scale.coolshop-cdn.com/product-media.coolshop-cdn.com/236HX5/e5d55774d2be4990bfecb4af11576a26.png/f/benefit-gimme-brow-go-set-03-medium.png?width=580) where you simply apply some brown gel as if it was a mascara. This was my first ever brow product. This doesn’t give as much to your brows while being slightly more expensive (definitely get the travel size if you can for starters) so it’s up to you which you prefer, but it’s definitely less of a learning curve to perfect compared to the other one.
Again, good luck!!!
I’m not currently comfortable with the idea of shaping my brows so I’m wondering what I can do in terms of product to get something more interesting going on. Otherwise they tend to fade into non existence with a full face.
