Back in the Bay, and I’m Thinkin’ About Brows…

December 5th, 2019 by Karen 3 Comments

Thinkin’ really hard about brows…

Ah… It’s good to be back home. 🙂 Of course, it would be awesome-er if it weren’t 40-something degrees here meow, but I’m happy to be back home with Rosie girl and my comfy bed.

Oh! — this next thing may seem incredibly obvious, but it isn’t always obvious to me: if you’re filling in your brows one day and they’re being particularly unruly/wonky, and you’re filling them in and filling them in and they still just don’t look right, quickly trim a little off the top or clean up under the arch. I know this sounds obvious, but if you’re anything like me and you live with your brows day after day after day, sometimes you just start filling them in without remembering to clean them up from time to time. Once you’ve cleaned them up, I bet they’ll start cooperating again.

I know, it seems obvious, but quickly cleaning up the stray hairs with tweezers and trimming any extra long hairs with a pair of round-tipped scissors (don’t poke your eye out!) will do wonders.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Welcome home, Karen! I bet Rosie is so happy to have all of you home. I think your brows look great, and I love the lipstick and eyeshadow you are wearing. Can you please share what they are? I want to run right out and get that lipstick! Did you get a chance to take advantage of any of the Black Friday makeup sales while you were in Hawaii? It seems like Ulta and Sephora both went crazy with deals and endless gift sets this year. Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like more than usual this year.

    Glad you got home safely!

    Here’s something scary to think about: my mom’s eyebrows have gone insane since her hair turned all gray. (Well, she has beautiful salt-and-pepper hair, but you know what I mean.) Her brows are one step away from crazy-old-man brows, wiry and growing way beyond the boundaries of the normal brow area. Lord, please do not let this be a preview of my brow future.

      I think about that all the time, Suzanne! I’ve found a couple of silvers in my brows and so far they’re relatively well behaved… We’ll see if that holds up, LOL!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

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).
