Happy Birthday to Your Brows! Benefit Now Offers Free Brow Arch Services on Your Birthday

March 6th, 2011 by Karen 35 Comments

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

    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.

    That’s kind of cool 🙂

    I have to ask: what nail polish are you wearing? It’s beautiful.

    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.

    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 🙁

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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!

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
