My Eyebrow Routine



Hello guys! Hope you're well.
Today I'm going to show you my current eyebrow routine and the products I use on them.
I do want to say that I do my eyebrows myself. I use to get them threaded but prefer to pluck them myself
as, I personally prefer the way I do it. Everyone will be different though. I don't go too crazy, I just pluck the
stray hairs so they are more defined. I personally prefer thicker and fuller eyebrows myself. I hope this helps
some of you if you're stuck on any products!









I naturally have dark blonde hair so my eyebrows aren't really dark. My hair is a dyed dark brown right now so,
I need to tint my brows darker so they match. I also prefer to tint them as I don't have to fill them in so much and,
it makes me feel more confident to go out with out make-up as, eyebrows define your face a lot. So, I then don't
feel I need a lot of make-up.

Tweezers
This is all I use to shape my brows myself. I use to have them waxed years ago then stopped as I hated it. I then
got them threaded for a long time but I felt they were doing them too thin for my liking so, I started just tweezing
them myself. I prefer to do this as I save money and I prefer how they look. I wouldn't suggest you do it yourself
unless you know what you're doing as, I made that mistake when I was younger. Just go to a professional so, they
can shape them before you start tweezing away at them and ruining them!

I use them serum every single night to help strengthen my eyebrows. It's for lashes and brows but I prefer to just use
it on my brows. Since using it I've found that my brows are thicker and fuller! My brows have always been thick
but always were a bit patchy from where I ruined them when I was younger by plucking out random bits. If you saw
how my brows use to look and how they look now, you'd be impressed!

This is my main product I use to fill in my brows. It has a pencil one side and a sponge with product on the other
side. I only use the pencil as, I don't feel my brows need much filling in after tinting them. I will literally just
outline my brows then, fill in any gaps with small and light brush strokes for a natural look.

I love using this to brush my brows out if I feel they look too harsh. This will help make them look more
natural but groomed.

To keep my brows in place all day, I'll use a tinted mascara. I don't use a dark brown one like I do with the pencil
as I feel it can make my brows look too dark by putting loads of dark products on top. I want them to look as natural
as possible so I don't like them to be too defined or too dark.

August Favourites. 



Hi guys, just thought I'd show you a few of my favourite beauty products (and 1 non beauty product) through the month of August. 

My hair is quite thick but has hardly any volume to it whatsoever and this shampoo just gives it that bit of a lift it needs. I will still back comb my hair a bit but I can definitely get away with not doing so after using this! Not to mention all Aussie products smell so good which is a bonus!

I love any hair product that is going to put moisture back into my hair just because my hair can get a bit dry if I've been using heat on it or been styling it a lot. Aussie do some really good leave in conditioners but for a regular conditioner this one works amazingly. Their Miracle Moist range is definitely my favourite!

I very rarely use heat on my hair as I know how bad it is for your hair, but when I do it can get very dry. If I don't have time to let my hair dry naturally then after I shower and my hair is damp I will take a small amount of this and run in through the mid lengths and ends of my hair but focus more on the ends. Don't put it anywhere near the roots or it will make your hair look greasy. This is one of the best heat protectors I've come across. Even after blow drying the scent of the product stays in your hair all throughout the day which I love.

My sister recommended this to me about a month or two ago and if anyone who knows a good hairspray, it's her. She's very fussy about what hairspray she uses as she uses it on a daily basis and not only likes it to have a very good hold but also have a nice smell. Both her and myself have relatively thick hair so it's hard to find one that will hold the hair in place all day. This one has a great hold without it making it feel rock hard and averagely lasts about 5-6 hours on me at work. As a plus the smell is a lot nicer compared to other ones I've tried.

I wanted to invest in a good pair of eyelash curlers as I had a cheap pair before but they broke just after a few months of purchasing them. I have always trusted Tweezerman products and have had my eye on their eyelash curlers for a while and they're exactly how I imagined they would be. They're very easy to clean and the pad feel very nice and isn't too harsh on the eyes. It also comes with a refill pad which is always helpful!

This is supposed to be the UK's No.1 selling mascara and I can see why! If you haven't seen this mascara before you've been living under a rock! It is literally THE best mascara I've ever used. My lashes aren't very long at all unfortunately but after using this, you'd never know. The only downside to it is that it dries out very quickly. Apart from that minor problem overall it's a great mascara.

I really really really wanted a Parka for so long but I'm not a massive fan of the fur around the hood so when I found this one in H&M I HAD to have it. It's a really thick, warm coat and the colour is really nice and goes with pretty much anything. The lining inside is detachable which is great if you just want a lighter jacket some days.
