The shape of my face

In recent years, the fashion has been for eyebrows not too full, well drawn . The goal is to highlight the look and highlight the face.

In order to know where I should start epilating on the eye side, I place my tweezers or a pencil against the bridge of my nose. Anything protruding from the side of the nose should be removed.

To also see where to stop on the other side, I place the tweezers or pencil from the corner of the lip towards the outer corner of the eye. And anything that protrudes there too will have to be removed.

This method was given to me by my best beautician friend.

It allows me not to wonder for hours what is the shape of my face and how long should my eyebrows be.

The shape of my eyebrows

I m learning to pluck my eyebrows so I don t have to pay the Beauty Institute anymore.

Even if, as I told you, fashion is discreet and harmonious, if you have very full eyebrows, you shouldn't remove everything either. , until leaving only a line, and at the risk of "distorting" us.

A constant to respect:I always leave a thicker eyebrow internal side of the eye. Then, I give the shape I want to my eyebrows.

I gradually refine outwards. I go up my line by 3/4 and I go down by 1/4. I thus respect the natural form of my eyebrows, playing on the chosen thickness.

If I have a circumflex eyebrow, I round the tip above. If it's in a straight line, I round in the middle and leave a little thickness on each side.

I epilate the top of both ends a little. For the rest, I look at the shape and I adjust.

When and how to epilate?

To avoid too much pain, I wax after my shower , the pores of my skin being dilated, I suffer less! But there are different techniques to use if you really fear the pain.

I tweeze my eyebrows for a long time once a month and I do small touch-ups once a week.

I always have clean tweezers, which I can clean with alcohol at 60°. But in case of very full eyebrows, if I'm skilled, I can try to use wax.

After the session, I brush them to put them in place. I plan on not waxing right before an outing, at the risk of being a little too red.

And I moisturize the depilated part, with a little shea butter.

Savings achieved

A visit to the beautician once in a while, we can afford it, for a complete facial treatment, or a body massage.

Where it becomes more expensive is when you add waxing (legs, bikini line, eyebrows)... At the end of the year, the beauty budget exploded!

If I go to the institute, I spend an average of €10 per session. If I go there about 10 times during the year, the calculation is quickly made:I spend €100 in one year.

At home, it costs me next to nothing.
