Find Your Eye Set
There are three main kinds of eye sets: normal, close and wide set. Eye set is found by measuring your eye from your inner tear duct to outer corner. The determination of your eye set is the first step to perfectly shaped eyebrows.

How does that compute?

When your eye measurement is the same as the distance between your eyes that means you have normal set eyes. When it’s greater, then you have wide set eyes; less, then you have close set eyes. With normal set eyes, your eyebrows should start at the inner eye (tear duct). Wide set eyes should have eyebrows that start further in, while close set eyes should start a little past the inner eye.

Get Those Puppies in Shape
Rounded eyebrows will soften your features.
Soft angled eyebrows, when combined with a small arch, are feminine and are the most preferred shape.
Angled eyebrows in which the peak of the arch is a little higher give you a more youthful look.
Straight eyebrows are for those with a long face. They make the face appear shorter and more oval (like Brooke Shields) .
Quick Tips:

Use the right mirror. Don’t use a highly-magnified mirror because you will end up over plucking. Also remember not to stand too close either; make sure to stand slightly back from the mirror so you can see if the eyebrows are balanced and match.

Start by trimming your brows. In most cases just trimming your brows will clean up the look rather than plucking. Trim your brows using small scissors.

Pluck one hair, using a good quality tweezer like the shuamora brand, then step back and take a look, because one little hair does make a difference.

There you have it ladies you should now be well on your way to the perfect brows. Let me know if you have any of your own tips to share!

Stay beautiful loves,
Dalton
