We wanted to master the everyday, bold-but-not-unnatural brow. So, we called in makeup-pro James Vincent and, thanks to his expert tips (and a few brow-boosting products), we think we nailed it. Watch out, Lily Collins: We just stepped up our brow game big time.

00:07Today I'm going to learn how to pencil my brows.
00:09It's not that I'm afraid to do it, it's just that I don't know how.
00:11So, eyebrows. Not anything you're afraid of,
00:14but maybe you don't have all of the information you need
00:17to make your eyebrow application successful.
00:21Exactly, and I love a strong brow. I just feel like at this point,
00:23if I tried to do it myself, I would just draw a straight line,
00:27and it's not really what I'm going for.
00:28Well, you're not alone. Eyebrows can be tough,
00:31but they provide expression and they frame the face,
00:33and what I would love to do is show you some of my tricks
00:37for making any eyebrow look amazing.
00:39That sounds perfect.
00:40So, my first trick is using the eyebrow pencil.
00:44So, I'm going to hold it like a pencil,
00:46and I'm literally sketching in little individual hairs.
00:50I'm drawing in along the bottom of the brow
00:53to give the brow a little weight and definition.
00:55So, the next option is a powder.
00:58I'm using a small angled brush in a soft taupe shade.
01:02Taupe is great for eyebrows because it always looks
01:05like a natural shadow from the lightest to the darkest skins.
01:09Another option, if you just need to fill in just a few hairs,
01:12is a brow pen. This is perfect for simulating a missing hair.
01:18Another option is going in with a really beautiful brow gel,
01:23and just brushing those hairs up into place to give you a perfect full brow.
01:30Want to take a look?
01:31Okay. Oh, my God, I love it.
01:34Well, I would love to show you how you can do it yourself
01:36in just a few easy steps.
01:37Great.
01:38You're just going to sketch in individual hairs,
01:41from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye,
01:43wherever you feel like hairs are missing.
01:45The next step we used was a brow powder,
01:49and we used a small angled brush,
01:51the same way that you would use a pencil,
01:53and you're just sculpting in the hair the same way.
01:56So, our next step is a brow pen,
01:58and with the brow pen, you're literally going to draw in
02:01little individual strokes of hair,
02:03wherever you feel like there might be hair missing.
02:05And then we're going to finish that all off
02:08with a beautiful Tilt Brow Gel.
02:10And this, you're literally just going to brush through the brow,
02:13and it's going to help hold it into place,
02:15but also bring in the color that's similar to your hair color.
02:18What do you think?
02:19I love it.
02:19I love it.
02:21Eyebrows are an easy way to make you look more polished,
02:24and it works for every woman.
02:26I'm so excited about it, so thank you so much.
02:28Thank you, my pleasure.
