It shouldn’t take much to convince you that brows are back, and in a big way. There is a booming beauty business based on brow maintenance, and for good reason.

Think of your brows as the frames for your face; a winning brow shape can change the shape of your face, take years off, and leave you looking polished and ‘done’, even without make up.
Not only is getting the correct shape important, but using make up to further enhance the shape, fill in sparse areas and elongate the brow is essential if you’re after the perfect bold brow look.
Enter Gorgeous Cosmetics, an Australian make up brand who are ready and willing to take you to brow-bliss. Gorgeous Cosmetics’ boutiques now offer their Brow Parlour services (starting from $15), so you can have your brows tamed in the most sumptuous of settings.
I had my brows shaped by the lovely Amy, who has been with Gorgeous Cosmetics for two years, and loves shaping brows. Gorgeous chooses to shape brows by tweezing, as you can get a more precise shape by selecting single hairs, said Amy. Amy also finished off my new look by applying the fake eyelashes that come with their Brow Stylist Collection, and some eyeshadow. I left feeling far more glamorous than when I walked in.
And, starting from May 1st, you can walk away with perfectly shaped brows and the tools to maintain them at home; their Brow Stylist Collection contains a Brow Pencil, Brow Fix, Multi Liner Brow Brush, Colour Pro Brow Shade, eyebrow stencils, and Tokyo Madam fake eyelashes. The kit is $49, and includes your Brow Overhaul.
If that’s not good enough value for you, five lucky Onya readers can win a Brow Stylist Collection from Gorgeous Cosmetics. Woo hoo!

Did she do them while you were sitting upright, Holly? That’s not something I’ve encountered before; how was it?

Hi Tammi,
Sorry, I only just saw your comment! Yes, while I was sitting up. The Benefit Brow Bar do it this way as well, and I’ve been told by them it is so they can see how your face rests when you are in your normal upright position – makes sense I suppose as not many of us lie down when we are out and about!
