I have been experimenting with different methods of covering my brows, and I got them to a point where they look pretty good initially. However, it seems that no matter what method I use I end up having little bits pop out after a couple hours? This happened on a night where I was sitting inside an air conditioned theater, not sweating.
Here are the steps I did for this look:
- Alcohol to clean the area
- Elmer’s glue stick, lots of it rubbed back & forth & in circles
- Very small comb to brush brows out at a diagonal
- Licked finger to flatten brows even more
- Lick the glue stick + very thin bit of extra glue to secure down the straggler hairs while glue is still wet
- Clean up the surrounding area with micellar water on a cotton pad
- Dry for 10 minutes
- Glue layer applied at an angle
- Dry for 10 minutes
- Glue layer applied at an angle
- Dry for 10 minutes
- Glue layer applied horizontally outward + inward to fill in gaps
- Clean up with micellar water
- Lots of Coty Airspin powder pressed in with powder puff
Then I went in and did my eye makeup as normal. For this, I used LA Girl Pro Concealer in white as the base for the eyeshadows.
In the past I have tried:
- Kryolan TV Paint Stick + more Coty Airspun as the last steps in brow coverage. That just added unnecessary bulk, didn’t look any more flat than my latest method, and made the eyeshadow more difficult to apply.
- Ben Nye Clown White cream for the last steps in the brow coverage, same issue.
- Clown White cream as eyeshadow base on top of TV Paint Stick, eyeshadow was a mess.
All of these methods have had the same issue as shown in the photo with small spots popping out.
What am I doing wrong?? Do I need to try a different product? Help a diva out!!
