Eyebrows speak louder than words. That is precisely why we went to Yara Ayoob, the go-to woman for anything and everything brow related to learn more about this year’s summer brow trends. In 2019, Yara became Benefit Middle East’s leading brow expert and spokesperson and embodies that brow chicka wow wow vibe. She shared with us some major tips and tricks to up our brow game at the Abu Dhabi Summer Style event at The Galleria Al Maryah Island.
We all have that favourite eyebrow
Yara started off by saying the key to the summer brow trends is…confidence! There is no such thing as perfect set of eyebrows. Yara emphasized that brows are supposed to be sisters, not twins. If you are happy with your brow shape, then use the trends to enhance what you already have, not change it.
A work of arch
Yara explained that when shaping and curating your brows, her top tip for summer brow trends is aim to make them look as similar as possible. The Precisely, My Brow Pencil Waterproof Eyebrow Definer has an ultra-fine tip that allows you to draw thin hairline strokes in one flick. It’s easy to use, smudge proof, and has 12 hour last power.
To get the microbladed look without the pain (or commitment!), Yara recommends using the Benefit Brow Microfilling Eyebrow Pen. This waterproof and smudge proof eyebrow pen is designed to give you perfect hair-like strokes that blend in with existing hairs, fill in brow gaps, and give you fuller looking brows.
Brow contact before eye contact
Interestingly, Yara said that when plucking your brows, don’t use a magnifying mirror! Instead, look at both brows at the same time to make sure they look similar and even. Magnifying mirrors allow you to only focus on one brow at a time and can be the catalyst for some major overplucking!
