SUQQU Balancing Eyebrow and Eyebrow Liquid Pen and a tip for sparse brows

Hi guys! I thought I’d show you the fabulous SUQQU eyebrow products which I use daily.

Balancing Eyebrow 01 Moss Green

The packaging is as fabulous, sleek and minimalistic as always. Has a great mirror and enclosed are 2 soft and fabulous brushes. As you can see there are 3 colours to mix and match to make your perfect shade. You can achieve a really natural look that lasts all day with this.

Eyebrow Liquid Pen in 02 Brown

I don’t use this regularly, because usually brow powder is more than enough, but when I opt for a more defined brow, I use this with the powder. Lisa Eldridge recommends this for people who have really sparse eyebrows. You can achieve a pretty natural look if you use very feathery strokes, a technique that is not the easiest to master but makes a huge difference.

And here’s a picture of me with rather defined eyebrows

I over plucked in my early teens as did many of my friends and now I’ve been having quite a tough time growing them back. I still try to pluck as little as possible and not over trim them with scissors etc. to maintain quite a natural look.

Castor Oil

A good and very cheap product to help grow those brows back is castor oil. Castor oil is found in pharmacies and costs around 2 Euros in Estonia. It is used as a natural laxative, but works wonders on sparse eyebrows and eyelashes. Just make sure to apply a very thin layer with a Q-tip overnight because it will get into your eye and make it sting very bad. Also remove any trace of the oil in the morning if you plan to use mascara, otherwise it might make the mascara flake.

And of course I have to give credit to the person, who really inspired me to leave my brows alone, so here is Lisa’s brow routine.

Hope it was of any help.

Love,

Janne.
