  1. Modeling option. It is used to correct and give the desired shape. Thanks to him, in just a few minutes you can correct the shape of the upper part of the face. Probably, many have noticed that the correction of the shape of eyebrows helps to change the overall visual perception of a person’s face. Previously, tweezers were used for correction, but it was a laborious, lengthy and painful exercise. Now for such purposes tweezers are used less and less. Wax will help not only to give the eyebrows the desired shape. It will provide a slight reduction in pain.
  2. Fixing option. Laying tools are used if the shape of the eyebrows suits you, but sometimes it is necessary to make efforts to put them right. For this is suitable wax pencil or, for example, gel. Of course, there are differences between these cosmetics, but they always contain beeswax. It helps make styling faster and more efficient.

Modeling waxes can be divided into several subtypes:

  • Shading. If you want to make your natural color brooks more expressive, then it is suitable tinted version. Its most common color palette is light brown, standard brown and charcoal black. For extravagant girls individual cosmetic companies produce bright colors (red, blue). At your request, you can use them.
  • Transparent. If you by nature have a dark hair color, then it will be enough just to fix them in the right direction. In this case, you will need a transparent option. They can also comfortably fix the shadows on the eyebrows.
  • Therapeutic. If you want to make your cosmetic bag not only functional, but also medical, then you must get this tool.

Mascara is absolutely not suitable for this area of ​​the face, and therefore it will not be able to provide durability and the desired effect. The minimal damage will be glued ugly hairs, and as much as possible you will also get stains on clothes. Walking in the rain with such makeup will become a taboo for you.

If you are the owner of pronounced eyebrows, then shadows or a pencil will be an excellent substitute for you. Putting make-up with the use of these tools, you must permanently wean yourself to touch your face. These are not very stable cosmetics, so even a light touch will make it so that a trace will not remain from the drawn eyebrows.

  2. Applying the gel, you quickly cope with any eyebrows, even very naughty. For a natural make-up the transparent variant is more suitable, and for an evening make-up - with a shade.
