Wants To Get Bold Brows Like Cara Delevingne?

Rock bold brows like Cara Delevingne with these tips! 

Aside from recently being named the face of Burberry Body Tender, model Cara Delevingne has two other claims to fame: her famously bold eyebrows. Her embrace of full brows has spawned a trend that has some women contemplating their eyebrow brushes. But if you're reluctant to dust on the pigment for fear of looking perpetually angry at the world, don't fret. Here are some things to keep in mind while doing up your eyebrows:

Stick to powders, not pencils. While pencils have been the mainstay for brows for generations (hello, '80s makeup), powders are easier to handle and create a more natural, feathered look. Grab two colors: one that is a shade lighter than your natural hue for daytime and one that is a tone darker for more drama.

Brush powder on your hairs, not your skin. One common mistake women make is pressing too hard on their brushes and pencils, causing pigment to adhere to their skin. This makes brows look clownish and fake. Use a lighter touch to ensure the pigment coats your hairs, not your skin, and always make sure you're brushing in the direction of the hair's growth. (Pick up a brow kit with multiple hues—mixing and matching colors can make a filled-in brow seem more natural.)

Focus pigment on the outer two thirds of your brows. If putting powder on your brows makes you look clownish, take note of where you're concentrating the color. Brushing powder onto the hairs near the inner corners of your eyes causes brows to look fake. Instead, focus the powder from the beginning of your arch to the end of your brow. Then, using a brow brush, blend the pigment into the inner corner.

Mix your colors. The best way to get a natural look is to blend your shades. Use a darker tone in a thinner line along the center of your brows, then blend a lighter shade out from the center of your brows to the ends.
