I’m making a note to myself to hit up the Benefit counter on my birthday this June (Gemini’s in the house, y’all!). Beginning this month, the brow lovin’ makeup line will now offer free birthday Brow Arch services at their fantabulous Benefit Brow Bars.
To get groomed and gorgeous brows for free (now THAT’S a good deal), all you have to do is flash a valid government issued photo ID showing your legal date of birth. The free Brow Arch service starts with a consultation, ensuring you’ll get the right brow shape for your face, as well as a practically painless waxing and/or tweezing session.
To find a Brow Bar near you, click here.
Pretty cool, huh? And it’s fat-free, unlike the massive slab of birthday cake I plan to eat that day. 🙂
Makeup in this look by Benefit. On eyes: Creaseless Cream Shadows in Skinny Jeans and Birthday Suit, Badgal Waterproof Liner, Stay Don’t Stray Primer and Concealer, High Brow Lifting Pencil and Badgal Waterproof Mascara. Cheeks: Bella Bamba Boxed Blush and Hoola Bronzing Powder. Lips: Full Finish Lipstick in Slow Zone.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Vijaya says
I didn’t know that! Thanks for the info… Though I prefer not to do my brows at all, actually, so I won’t be taking advantage.
Carolanne says
-_- my birthday JUST passed
Christina says
MINE TOO. And I sorely need a neatening up. Sigh.
Fieran says
That’s kind of cool 🙂
I have to ask: what nail polish are you wearing? It’s beautiful.
larrielle says
I love it! My birthday is coming up in 44 days (yes I have begun a countdown) and I will be turning 21!!! Once in a blue moon do I get my eyebrows done because they’re already arched, but for special occasions. This is wonderful news.
Tiffany says
Um, that hat is kindof amazing. That’s a cute idea from benefit. I think I’m a weirdo because my brows don’t really grow, after years of plucking them. So they are kinda impossible to shape 🙁
Nina says
that is neat!
i do like the brow bar here at the houston galleria! 🙂
Solangel says
Now I’m tempted to let them grow wild for the two months ’til my birthday, lol 😀
Heidi says
That is a great service, and today IS my birthday! Maybe if the rain stops I’ll go do that later!
Zara says
Ohhh, this is nice! My b-day is this month.(:
Kelsey says
DAMN IT. My birthday was last week! Grr…
Emily says
How cool! PS My b-day’s also in June!!
courtney says
wow ! thanks for the info!
izzi says
its my birthday yay!
Terri says
Thanks for the info Karen! I’ve always wanted to try Benefit’s Brow Bar, so it looks like I’ll get my chance in June (I’m a Gemini too ;))
Iris says
Oohh Karen I love the makeup you wearing in these pictures please do a tutorial plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Sincerely,
Your blog’s addict.
Jen says
Awesome!!!!!!!! 🙂 I’ve seen brow bars at Macy”s where the Benefit counter is :p
Liz says
And now you tell me. My BD was yesterday. Neat service.
kali says
Wow! That’s pretty neat. =) I wonder if you have to go the day of though? Looks like I’ll be growing out my brows a few weeks before that!
Jennifer says
Hi there. I love your nail polish. What color/brand is that???
Cassy says
Very cool! Unfortunately the closest location to me is not somewhere I plan to be ON my birthday. I think it’s a wonderful promo, though.
Coral says
That’s awesome. I normally get my eyebrows threaded and then keep them up at home. I’m never quite sure what the “right” shape for my brows is anyway.
Traci says
My birthday is next week and I already have my apointment! I have never had the counter do my brows so I am excited to see how they turn out. I live in Texas and my counters at Ulta have been advertising this service for awhile now. I wonder if they were testing the idea out in certain areas.
Jen says
OMG! I have to get in on this =] thanks for the tip, Karen!
Ashley says
I had no idea there was a Brow Bar in my city until I checked the website. I should go since my birthday is next Monday!
Kate & Zena says
Y’know, I almost cried when I read I could have had them tweezed on my birthday! Someone should have informed me they had just started doing it!
Kaelin Chan says
Your makeup looks absolutely fabulous here Karen 😀
Cassie says
Waaah! My bday’s coming up but I live in the UK so it’s highly unlikely the Benefit brow bars will be doing the offer here! US makeup services are so much more generous.
Daya says
Hey Karen!
Thanks for posting about the brow bar. My birthday is in 3 weeks 🙂
hazel says
geminis hella in da house!!! lol. thanks for the info! my b-day is on june 18. i made a note in my phone calendar already 🙂
Stephanie says
I am not sure if you are aware of this, but even the Benefit brow bar at Ulta gives free brow shaping on your birthday. My 16 year old daughter went last March on her birthday and all I have been hearing about as of late is how bummed she is that she’ll miss her free service this year since she’ll be on a school trip to Peru. At least she knows the importance of a good arch!
☆Lola A♠★ says
I wish we had one here!!!
Kasey says
NOOOOOOOO one month too late, I wonder if they are offering retroactive ones for Jan/Feb Bdays? LOL
Betty says
I wish I read this on the day it was posted. My bday was yesterday =(
Catherine says
I’ve been trying to get this done for 2 years! The only benefit brow bars in my area is inside an Ulta store. I can tell you from experience that it HAS to be on your birthday, I couldn’t make it by after work last year and called- no exceptions. What I found out this year is that if the Benefit brow artist is not in the Ulta that day, no rain checks. I went in on my birthday this year and was told that she was on vacation. When I asked for a rain check for when she returned I was told that it’s against policy. Maybe my attempt next January will finally succeed!
