HD BROWS

Hi,
Would like some advice.
I have very pale eyebrows and am wanting to look a little more 'together' if you know what I mean 🙂
If I have HD brows they won't be like big mono brows will they. I work in a school and some of the girls look awful 😄
I mean I know you can go bold but it would look daft on me. Can you get a more subtle effect??
Thanks x

I have a similar issue and use various powders and pencils - I have one Avon pencil which is dark blonde. Try something like that first rather than going heavy. Even when I use it lightly it still surprises me at first so going straight to HD might freak you out! I also use the blonde Benefit Foolproof Brows which is brilliant.

Thank you for your advice. You're probably right xx

Try the Benefit gimme brow eyebrow gel, it’s super easy to use and I think it makes a big difference. I have pale, patchy eyebrows and love it.

Before trying HD brows just go to a decent brow place for a wax / thread and tint. That might be enough without going full on HD!

Another vote for benefit gimme brow, 'its bloody brilliant!

Although I must admit to googling for dupes of it have now discovered the most fab dupe of gimme brow that Wilko's sell, and at £2.50 a tube as opposed to £18(?)ish I am a full convert! Essence Make Me Brow

I order in a few at a time to my local store. Although have found you need to scrape the excess off the wand before you apply it, but seem to recall doing the same with the benefit one.

Thanks for the Wilko tip Silvery. I'll try that.

Glad you managed to make sense of my garbled post! Note to self, don't try and write whilst bf a very wriggly 18mo who keeps trying to smack my phone out of my hand! 🤦‍♀️

It is very good anyway, has little fibres in it as well as colour. Plenty of reviews online about it too if you want to read more feedback
