DON’T BE TOO BIG AND BOLD

-

AIDA GHAZLAN, 22, works in marketing.

AIDA SAYS: As a teenager, I used to over-pluck my eyebrows. When I look back at photograph­s of myself, I’m horrified.

They did grow back, but are terribly patchy.

So when the trend for very thick eyebrows — like those of model Cara Delevingne — came in, I cursed myself for having plucked so much.

Now, I wouldn’t leave the house without drawing them on and filling them in. I hate the sight of them ‘naked’.

JENNA SAYS: Aida is a stunning girl, and the trend for a heavily drawn-on brow is often ageing and can look too severe.

I started by removing all of her make-up and tweezed a few stray hairs here and there to add softness.

I then camouflage­d the patchiness using a light, buildable brow sculpt. This is a cream shadow that can be layered or stippled on to create a backdrop for an already beautiful brow.

Aida needed far less product than she thought.

A brow gel is the perfect finishing touch to her look, as it smooths down rogue hairs and adds a natural, light touch of colour. PRODUCTS: By Terry Crayon Sourcils Terrybly (€26, byterry. com); Eyeko Brow Gel (€24.32, asos.com).

AIDA’S VERDICT: I really like my new brows — they’re softer and natural. I’m going to try to maintain this look.
