Eyebrows: all the tips for the perfect styling Hair removal and styling techniques and a guide with must-have products to make them stronger

Is it better to epilate our eyebrows with tweezers, wax or oriental thread? And what is the difference between lamination and microblading? In the 90s they were very thin in fashion, now the trend is to wear them well cared for and with a natural look thanks to ad hoc treatments and products to intensify the look. First of all, it is very important to understand which is the most suitable shape for our face. How? Ideally dividing an eyebrow into three parts like this: place a pencil vertically on the outer edge of the nostril, and draw an imaginary straight line, the shape will start from there. Continue tilting the pencil - which must cross the pupil - so as to have the highest point of your arc. Finally, run the pencil past your eye and that's where it will end.

And what about the hair removal method? There are those who prefer waxing for a longer lasting result, those who prefer tweezers to do it alone and those who prefer the thread: in short, it is not easy to choose how to proceed. If you are skilled with DIY, you can certainly opt for tweezers, making sure to use clean tools (to avoid infections) and to have clear ideas on where and how much to intervene, to avoid ruining the natural shape of the eyebrows. Waxing is another of the most used methods, even if it is not exactly a do-it-yourself practice and it is therefore better to rely on specialized centers, as well as for the oriental cotton thread that removes the hair from the bulb proceeding hair by hair - method more recommended for sensitive skin than waxing. However, if you prefer to experiment by yourself at home the eyebrow hair removal with wax or thread, you can opt for depilatory strips or a manual spring epilator but always be careful: the eyebrow area is very limited and it is possible to depilate too much and / or wrong.

Treatments in brow bars are also in high demand lately. In particular, in Milan, Benefit Cosmetics has reopened its Brow Bars Benefit, where the brow experts, using exclusive hair removal and styling techniques, will make your brows perfect in just a few minutes. Starting with a customized mapping of the eyebrows, designed to enhance the shape of each face, then it will continue with the tint and last but not least will proceed with the styling.

And if microblading - a cosmetic tattoo technique, in which a small tool consisting of tiny needles is used to add a semi-permanent pigment to the skin - is still the most popular, surely lamination is among the latest trends. In fact, it works like a keratin hair treatment but is designed for the eyebrows, and makes sure that the hairs are all in the same direction, giving the eyebrows a thicker and tidier look, as if they were always freshly combed. Approved! Well, and now that you know how to shave and define your brows, nss G-Club has selected for you the 10 must-have products to keep them strong and thick.
