I've been asked many times what i do to my brows to keep them in shape and how I make them up etc. This film will hopefully answer all those questions as I describe my personal routine. I have a very low maintenance brow routine which suits me and I'm not suggesting others have to do the same. Hopefully it will be interesting for those of you who asked! x

More than 8 years later, Lisa's brow philosophy is still perfect for us.

@salimad6501 Год назад

Lisa is Timeless. You are so right!!

@AnnMarieSmantana 8 лет назад

You are a unique make up artist on RU-vid, you teach people about the beauty of being natural and not overdoing things on the face. I admire you, you are beautiful and very intelligent.

@kamaropayne5226 5 лет назад

Beautifully stated 💜

@variantye 9 лет назад

I have just applied Lisa's advise, for the first time in my life, now 62, I have an eyebrow that I really like. My eyes are hooded, again just found out, applied the suggested technique and my husband noticed a difference!! loving this!!!

@arimarianne7528 6 лет назад

Varian Tye: Hooded eyes are glamorous! :) you will see them on all the VS angels and Old Hollywood starlets.

@livia1881 10 лет назад

I've been doing my eyebrows like this since I saw this tutorial. Its such a contrast to most of the youtube eyebrow tutorials which look really severe. This is by FAR the best eyebrow tutorial I've seen on you tube. Thank you for taking the time to be on youtube. Thank you Lisa!

i was in law school. i had 3 exams the same week. i wanted to pass them all. 20 days prior the first exam, i made a vow to myself: i would not remove a single strand of facial hair until i pass all 3 of them. i usually take care of my upper lip and eyebrows, and they grew wildly on my face. best studying method ever. and i noticed that i removed way too much hair from my eyebrows: they regained their natural angle, with a better shape.

@marianapatacas5405 8 лет назад

this is hilarious and an amazing idea at the same time! :)

@annesokolich2209 10 лет назад

Can you do a video on selecting the proper brow color? When you look at a client, do you pick a brow color based on their hair color alone or is it also based in their skin tones?

@kamaropayne5226 5 лет назад

GREAT question. I would love to see this, but you left this comment 4 years ago, so I don’t think we’re gonna get what we want. Haha. I’d go into a Sephora or Ulta, and ask a beauty specialist to help you choose the right color. If you have dark hair, the brow shade should be one or two shades lighter. If you’re blonde, one or two shades darker. Not sure about red hair. Hope that helps 😊😊😊

@SARACLELIA 10 лет назад

This! I'm not easy to give compliments but... girl, you opened up my eyes! I always tried to use eyebrow pencil because everyone said it would have looked good, and it actually looked good on them. But everytime, on my black, long, shiny eyebrows in my thin face the pencil looked too heavy, too obvious, didn't matter how light I went with it. But now looking at you doing yuour eyebrows I just realized that I need to brush the hairs down, exposing the skin underneath, allowing the pencil to set onto the skin and not onto the hairs, and after that, to comb my hairs back up. Great, great tip. I will try it as soon as possible.

@TheMissBeki 9 лет назад

I truly believe you are quite the opposite of self indulgent. Thank you for for your beautiful tutorials .. free of pretense and full of love :) xx

@kamaropayne5226 5 лет назад

Absolutely beautifully said 💜

@Sarah-qy4we 7 лет назад

Thank you so much for actually expressing your opinion on makeup trends without making a speech about how "you can do makeup however you want and nothing is wrong!"

@BellaSC 14 лет назад

You have such a gentle, non critical way of explaning beauty. I always feel like watching your videos helps me to put on the best make up looks for me and not just what is in fashion. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@LotusKitty111 its mainly just the MUFE HD from the liquid blush video...I filmed this one right after. The colour and application is listed on the blush vid x

@starlight2009x 14 лет назад

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO REALLY KNOW ABOUT GREAT EYEBROWS. i totally agree that every hair is precious, and that you should not mess with your brows. just a bit of cleaning, but then to leave them to their natural shape. LUV YOUR NATURAL APPROACH TO BEAUTY LISA! X

@xreallysupercoolx 11 лет назад

When I was 14 I over plucked my eyebrows and they've never been the same. I have those "tadpoles" you were talking about too and I hate them. This was a very helpful video! Thanks Lisa!

@littlelilone9693 3 года назад

2021 - A class act, as timeless as ever. Thank you very much! all the love.

@drsakshisargam 12 лет назад

i just love your make up sense....so natural and sophisticated........your confidence in your work and your British accent are just WOW!!

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@mizzworthy oh no! Its a risk isnt it, a bit like plumbers and electricians..some are very good and some are terrible! Thanks for commenting x

@LisaEldridge 12 лет назад

Finding the right shade of pencil is key... so they look natural. Nothing too warm or red/orangey and also not too dark. You also need a pencil that is fine, firm and direct so rather than drawing on a solid line you can do lots of small feathery strokes which mimic hair. A great product is the Suqqu felt tip brow liner in 02 which enables you to draw on thin 'hairs' plus it's waterproof or mac do some good pencils. I wish your sister in law a full and speedy recovery x

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@eyeswideopen85 I can 'shape' the upper line naturally with the bleach and because they are being bleached at their full length, I only need to do this every couple of months as there is no re-growth. When you pluck its always growing out at different stages so more high maintenance I find. x

@longs4 14 лет назад

You have such beautiful, natural brows! Other YT beauty gurus should watch & learn from you since your brows are PERFECTION!

@Eyelinerandcomputers 14 лет назад

I am so envious, your natural brows are already perfect! Mine have always been sparse and were butchered by beauticians when I was a teenager, they just won't grow back where I need them to. Drawing them in and still looking natural is quite hard I must say.

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@rograndier I think it is...is the shade name still Nude? x

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@girlythingsbye I use either Jolen or Boots 'Expert' range. The good thing is you get time to get it into exactly the right position before it starts bleaching so if you make a mistake just remove it with a damp cotton wool and re-apply. X

@Kwilson860 8 лет назад

This was by far the most helpful brow video I've seen!

@LisaEldridge 12 лет назад

@mohnbloomish of thanks, its a MUFE one from my liquid blush video. Have a look at that X

@auricia201 8 лет назад

Thank you for the video. I like the way you fill the eyebrows, with the light strokes instead of harsh lines and weird gradients. They keep looking like hair, as they should, instead of a carpet. It's hard to find makeup artists with that approach.

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@Kathleenmarie25 have you tried Laura Mercier? Failing that, the japanese brands are also good for brow shades x

@michnix1459 4 года назад

In one video you managed to put an end to how self-conscious I feel about my eyebrows (I have almost the SAME EXACT eyebrows that you do, but a bit thicker), made me comfortable with the fact that they are a bit thicker (not bushy lol), told me everything I'm doing wrong, as well as everything I'm doing right. Thoroughly impressed. Out of all the brow tutorials, articles, and hours I have spent scrolling through Pins on Pinterest, I believe my search for perfect brows has finally come to an end, thanks to you. 😄 My hero!🦸🏻‍♀️Lol!

@shelleykerr83 14 лет назад

Hi Lisa, Thank you for this video. I have been sent home as we have had heavy snow today (in Northern Ireland) and I was so hoping you had downloaded another video as I love watching them. I have learnt so much and feel much more confident about applying my make up x

@ItsJillStrif 14 лет назад

I so agree with you about everything. I love natural looking brows, they look so much more flattering on people. All the girls I know pluck their brows sooo thin and think it's a good look. Yikes. Thanks for the video, so informative!

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@isabird I dont do it that often...I find every couple of months is fine as I bleach them at their full length..so no re-growth x

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@Linbaaaby nothing TOO black. Go for a very dark greyish/soft black instead of an intense black....that can look very harsh x

@lillypad4776 10 лет назад

I feel the exact same about my brows. Each hair is so important to me, I don't ever want to risk pulling one out and breaking the follicle. So, I just shave them with a tiny razor so they are able to grow back quick and I can change the shape if I want without any commitment.

@ObsidianFyre 11 лет назад

I love the fact that you tell people about eyebrows and about making sure that you don't take TOO much from their eye brows. I hate that look when someone has half of their eyebrow gone!

@antmullenix-fielder84 4 года назад

Mrs. Eldridge you are an absolute make up genius!! A lady that knows and teaches natural beauty and not this made up, Instagram rubbish. So very greatful for your expertise and knowledge. Thank you kindly!!

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@Graceful25 yes I really like brow gels, I use them on jobs and I only really cut brows if its necessary (on more mature ladies generally) x

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@PprettyBlossoms I use special disposable sterilized needles to get them...but I dont do it very often. I gently break the surface of the skin and then gently 'lift' them out using tissue over my finger tips. Usually works very well x

@domsgizmo 14 лет назад

I love your eyebrow "philosophy". When someone's overdone their eyebrows (whether they've over-filled or plucked) I just end up talking to their eyebrows the entire time. They can go so wrong! Thanks for sharing!

@rgrdesigns 10 лет назад

This is the most helpful video on brows I have seen. I hope to adopt your techniques into my routine. Thanks!

@mgparis 14 лет назад

Couldn't agree more about over-plucking eyebrows, such an ageing, unflattering look - natural, groomed brows are the best Thanks for another lovely, helpful video, Lisa! you rock :) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@0hpalpitations thank you. Its the MUFE HD blush in Carmine x

@reverendgreen03 12 лет назад

My brows are looking the best they ever have since I've adopted your take on brow grooming. I've never been happy with their natural shape and used to think that if they natural shape was sub-par, then ultra-tweezing would fix them! Now I only do the strays and pencil/powder with more care and they're lovely! Thanks Lisa :)

@TheAnnabel99 14 лет назад

Hello Lisa, thank you so much for this video. I am 52, & still have good skin but notice that my makeup routine is having to subtley change now I am older. It is so hard to find any help for the older face, but your eyebrow suggestions are perfect. I have your colouring, but with green eyes, but my eyebrow colour has faded. Recent photos show my face with no eyebrow definition. . I have practiced filling in my brows & they look so much better. Hoorah for your help with us 'older' women

@adriannisifonte2368 8 лет назад

I almost cry when I lose a hair from my brows,they are so precious for me and I just leave them alone,I don't pluck them,don't wax them,nothing. I really like the natural look

@saraheeeeeee4552 8 лет назад

I know! As I get old I don't want to lose one damn hair!

@twopennyspells 11 лет назад

i'm glad u pointed out you have "uneven" eyebrows/slightly uneven features, i never even noticed! it makes me feel more assured, as i also have slightly uneven eyebrows and eyelids and was always very self conscious about it

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@blackswan0307 they do two eyebrow pencils and one felt pen type. The felt pen type is good if you have very sparce brows. They do a very good dark grey/ soft black pencil which would be good for your very dark brows x

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@anilladm dont worry, your English is fine I can understand you perfectly. There is a black gel eyeliner along the water line and smudged along the bottom lashes. This is then blended a lot with a black powder to soften the effect using a brush x

@makingupthemagic 13 лет назад

Hello, I'm eastern european and have fairly thick and slightly unruly brows and I've often been told to have them cleaned and I thought I was strange to want to keep as much of my natural hairs, it's refreshing to hear someone else be so fussy about keeping you eyebrows as natural looking as possible.

@laurajaramillo2160 4 года назад

OMG this a ten year old video, but it completely changed the game for me. i had been focusing on excessively powdering and fluffing up the front of the brow and getting messy overly intense brows that didn't flatter my face very much. with lisa's brushdown method it seems so strange and like it's not going to work but it really highlights architecture of the brow through focusing on the arch and makes them look elegant and polished

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@IzaBeautyful is MUFE HD blush in Carmine x

@SuperChunkyCheeks 9 лет назад

I share this philosophy, I love natural looking brows. However, I can't fully achieve them myself - I have trichotillomania so I've plucked them a lot over the years, making them really thin and now I can't grow them back in anymore. Besides, they were long and sparse to begin with, if I were to pluck a single hair it would show! I try my best to fill them in as carefully as I can, but they will always look drawn in no matter what I do or use. Same goes for some of my clients with similar problems I do makeup on, especially elderly ladies with thinning brow hairs, I struggle so much with not making them artificial.

@wednesdayn4272 7 лет назад

try putting castor oil every night

@AylaMarianna 5 лет назад

Fellow trichotillomaniac here (who grew up in the 90s/early 00s and got caught in the super-thin eyebrows fad-yikes!). I used minoxidil: dipping q-tip and stroking it on my eyebrow area morning and evening. It slowly helped mine look less sparse over the course of a few months, making it much easier to put on makeup (easier to get it to look natural).

@BillyandRobyn 11 лет назад

favourite eyebrow tutorial ever! i'm glad i'm not the only one with one arch higher than the other

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@EternalTwiHard yes plucking is fine to remove the strays in the middle and for shaping underneath. x

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@ruivademinas so hard to advise without seeing you. My only suggestion is that you try several. Laura Mercier, Bobbi Brown and all the Japanese brands do good ones. Make sure you test it out in daylight (or a least check the colour in full daylight) x

@CM-oc6bz 9 лет назад

Thanks for your tips. U r so honest n easy to watch...not annoying or trite like most every other you tuber!

@fikasyuhada 5 лет назад

Thank you so much! I've found that doing my eyebrows with very light strokes and just filling what needs to be filled in is better than the method that I previously used and loved.

@07Janina07 11 лет назад

This video was so helpful, eyebrows are such a huge part of make up because they frame your face. You are right, Lisa, its always better when they look natural, I once overplucked them in an effort to make them look the same since I too have a higher eyebrow and it was a disaster.

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@lottielovelife a soft powder and brush will probably work best. You can get some lovely soft powder brow products from many brands x

@CamilaDeribepreyCamilasCloset 9 лет назад

She compared eyebrows to architecture and it truly is THAT serious lol

@LisaLisaD1 14 лет назад

This was such a great video--I agree completely! I like that you can still see a little "skin" through your brows--thank you! :)) Lisa

@poppy2908 6 лет назад

Lisa this fresh pink makeup with dark hair suits you wonderfully😍

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@ZoeGeorge84 there is only one palette with a mixture of dark grey and brown. The Mac brow pencils are great shades x

@deborahlindsay3670 5 лет назад

I found this older video searching for brows-- love this very natural look!

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@bunnyhunny9 Only start doing it if you really need to because once you start you have to carry on and it changes their appearance. I know lots of people genuinely need to but I also see so many girls who dont really need to (prob you tube like you said). X

@inkpink13 14 лет назад

lisa you are the most talented beauty guru i have yet come across. thanks for uploading such informative videos. :)

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@pucktweety keep filling in the gaps with powder or pencil to make the transition phase less unbearable. You can also draw tiny feathery strokes with a very fine pencil or brow pen so it looks like more hair x

@ionisilviaa 14 лет назад

Hi Lisa! Just recently I got interested in brows when I became aware of the fact that the brows shape can change your face expression.And as my brows hairs tend to hang down (making my face look sad somehow), I began plucking them a bit. Anyway I try t leave them as natural as possible, even keeping some distinctive rebel hairs that I think are part of personality :) I learned a lot of things from your video! the idea of bleaching the hairs is genius! I'll use it!

@jaderosepty 9 лет назад

Hi Lisa, I had watched this video yesterday and finally understood how to have my eyebrow done. It was not easy for me every day to have them done. thank you so much. I will watch the next video about how to have them perfectly.

@AbigailSmith 7 лет назад

I love this more natural look. You're always my go-to makeup RU-vidr. Thanks, Lisa!

@EL-ub2df 7 лет назад

I like your way of making eyebrows!!! I always do the same thing step by step and I have never understood girls, who put too much colour on their eyebrow! you have a greate sense of style, as a lady from aristocratic class!

@fabulous2213 10 лет назад

Here Here! I totally agree with your thoughts on eyebrows. Tidy, softly defined in a shape that flatters your eye and face shape. I dont want to attract attention to my eyebrows. I want my eyes to attract all the attention! HD eyebrows AAAaaahhh!

@MsMelysssa 14 лет назад

I never tried before to brush them into the wrong way, (to see where my arch is) and then fill them in, it works much better than the regular way (brush it upwards), and it looks more natural!! :) Thank you Lisa!

@fragu123 10 лет назад

I love your tutorials and I absolutely enjoy listening to your voice and your advice! I might be one of few, but I have naturally "bleach"-blonde eyebrows and love them quite dark to my short platinum blonde hair. Maybe you could make a tutorial on how to "create" natural looking eyebrows if one just has very light brows (and lashes)?

@SetsuNanami97 7 лет назад

jogu123 you could dye it darker :)

@AgentOrchid 9 лет назад

Thank you so much for sharing this video with the world. It is so nice to see a video that doesn't make it at all complicated.

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@em10898 definitely, coming soon! x

@feistyfluxy 14 лет назад

Finally, a brow video that makes sense! I remember when Madonna released her Bedtime Stories Album and had her eyebrows removed - I was devastated!!! Strong brows were accepted thanks to Kevyn Aucoin and over night people plucked it all gone only to replace what was left with a wonkily drawn line!! Stop the madness and leave our facial catepillars alone!!!

@librakitten16 14 лет назад

You have inspired me to pluck my eyebrows for the first time whilst watching this! I've always been afraid to before as don't want really thin ones!

@TahmaraMorning 14 лет назад

I was a victim of overplucking through an esthetician and I now have grown them in. I completely celebrate thick eyebrows, and enjoyed the tip for bleaching the top section. Thanks Lisa for being a naturally beautiful person and sharing your techniques! =D

@AdventuresofBarbarella 14 лет назад

I agree with you completely, I do the same thing. Hairs are important. I like my brows as natural and thick as possible.

@LiveLikeaPunk 14 лет назад

I've seen so many brow videos and I thought I know everything about them, but you did the best video so far,I've learnt so much :) thanks

@agepe7 14 лет назад

Tadpole! That's the perfect description; I hate that effect too. (I'm also totally stealing the term!) I do have mine waxed, since they are a bit shapeless (and I'm a bit useless at plucking them myself properly). But definitely agree that a natural eyebrow is always the best choice. Thin eyebrows, that are not naturally thin, can create a weird aesthetic effect and overwhelm everything else on the face.

@thefantasyraider 13 лет назад

i have been doing exactly same routine,less plucking more bleaching above the eyebrow,since you need extra hairs to build your eyebrow make up,and not making them look too ''evil''looking near your nose bridge everyone should try this,rather than overpluck them and making yourselves look older fantastic video Lisa :)

@elisevienna1 10 лет назад

What do you suggest for olive or medium skin tones? Is it still okay to bleach the hair or will it look weird on a skin color darker than fair to light? Thank you! I absolutely adore your tutorials and advice.

@flicsavali8975 9 лет назад

Elise Fernadez personally i would use brow mascara if you have dark eyebrows and dye them it begins strange when they start growing out and it'll be a easier to test out how it will look without commitment of constantly dying them

@nyaleks93 14 лет назад

this video made me really happy :) i dont pluck my eyebrows just a couple strays rarely from the bottom and watching this video reassured me that im doing the right thing :D thank you

@LisaEldridge 12 лет назад

@NyDrPa you could but you would need to get a colour expert to do them ... its more difficult that you think. I think they are probably fine as they are and they do match your lovely black hair X

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@stefheartsyou not that I've noticed no. x

@GorJessM 14 лет назад

Such an informative video! I could listen to you talk for hours! Thanks Lisa! x

@ginerzinwonderland 12 лет назад

Kudos to you for keeping your natural look. That's really what makeup should be about, enhancing your natural beauty.

@susansladkus672 7 лет назад

Very interesting. I like the way you showed us two different ways to do our brows. Thank you.

@winterlover89 14 лет назад

i'm with you on being scared of waxing etc, so many beauticians seem to try and whip off as much as they can! I've never had mine done either but i really like them big so it works out!

@holidayyeoh 12 лет назад

for years i thought i am the only one and the weird one with one eyebrow that has is higher (arch) than the other and always end up unhappy with my makeup because I thought both eyebrows supposed to look the same. Thanks for explaining and I shall use more feathery strokes and I will think of you whenever I am being ultra picky about my non-symmetrical brows. Thanks Lisa. Big hugs from Singapore :)

@eshutchison 14 лет назад

I love how natural yet beautifully groomed you look in the video. I'm heading towards the less is more look these days. But I still love my smokey eyes or my red lips :)

@m.arrazola 7 лет назад

Beautiful, I agree about keeping it natural, I too dont pluck my eyebrows because they are so precious to me

@LisaEldridge 14 лет назад

@inesperfectdrug ha ha! Oh I do pluck them...I really need to underneath, I'm just careful not to take too many : ) x

@TurquoiseBeach 14 лет назад

I thought I was the only one in the makeup community who believes in natural brows...but glad to find out that Im not the only one:)...I do shape them just where needed but never near the inner corner of the eyes area since I like them being thick near there as well just as you've suggested:) thank you for your great tip though:) great video as always

@kswneuhaus 14 лет назад

Thank you for this video!!! I was one of those girls that had my eyebrows waxed and tweezed in my 20's and now regretting it in my 30's. I look back at my pictures and wish that I had my beautiful full eyebrows back :( I did use RapidLash and that helped thicken them back up but not the same and they probably never will be! I think your brows look very youthful and they look great!!! Love the blush, you look fabulous and young!

@rinisix4243 4 года назад

Most of what I learnt it’s from Lisa in terms of applying my own makeup. After 10 years I keep referring to her videos. And she looks the same after 11-10 years if not better

@isabird 14 лет назад

I loved this video, and bleaching sounds like a great idea but I worry it could eventually affect the skin's pigmentation? BTW I'm anxiously waiting for those blush videos you promised! Love your work! xo

@reverendgreen03 so nice to hear, thanks! x

@dianeuk01 14 лет назад

Great video, thank you. I saw you brush your eyebrow hairs down briefly in a tutorial and I've been doing that to start off my brow shaping and filling in, unfortunately over time by eyebrows are overplucked, started with my first ever professional eyebrow shaping I had done and that I stupidly maintained and it got thinner, sparser and now hardly any hairs grow back :-( they are shockingly bad mind you and thanks to make-up I can get them a bit fuller. Thanks so much for doing this video.
