How to shape a perfect eyebrow?

Here is a guide

1. Find where your eyebrow should start. Eyebrow should start at the vertical point of where inner eye corner


2. Where your eyebrow to arch/ turn? Depends on the frame of your face. If you have a smaller frame. you can go with 45 degree out from the start line. see below


If you have a wider frame, then move the arch out a little. keep the same angle, but the line should be at the end of the retina (I don't really know how to describe it, so see the picture below)


3. The last step is to find where the eyebrow should end. The same angle of the line, but this time, it should be at the end of the eyeball. see below:



Once you are able to shape your eyebrow, you might want to use eyebrow pencil to fill in the thinner part of the eyebrow.  Here are some recommendation for a good eyebrow kit:

Revlon Eye Brow Pencil


The other side of the pencil (the lighter part) can help highlight the eye bone under the arch.



Revlon Eyebrow Pencil & Gel  - Gel sets the brow, so your brow hair stays put.


Laura Mercier Eyebrow pencil and powder duo





I found a pretty good tutorial online - take a look~

The DIY Mask

In one of my older posts, I shared a recipe of an awesome DIY mask for a whitening and tightening effect. 


Friends were asking about it recently, so here it is again to save you the trouble in digging into my archive posts~





Home Made Honey Egg Lemon Mask

  1. 1 egg (whole egg, you can also just use egg white or egg yolk. egg yolk has more nutrition, but egg white helps rebuild skin, and reduce blemish. So, you can decide what you want to use)
  2. honey - 1 tsp
  3. lemon juice (fresh squeezed) - 1.5 TSP
  4. flour or milk powder - 2 - 3 Tsp (It depends on the size of the egg. bigger egg, more flour or milk powder)


mix all together and spread the mixture on your face evenly. 

Let it sit for 15-20 mins until it gets a little dried. ( You don't need to wait until its completely dried) 
Use a small wash cloth to wash the mask off. (When it starts drying up, its hard to get it off the face. So, a wash cloth can help you wash off the mask.) 


The mixture will probably be enough for 2 facial. But, don't keep the remaining mixture for over 2 days. (i.e. use it up the 2nd day if there is any left, so it is still fresh)


Here are some tools that you should have in your DIY facial kit ~
