Face with a Heart Makeup Application Tutorials – Eyebrows

This week, Makeup Gourmet Chris Scott, introduces the first in a new series of how-to makeup video tutorials. The simplest way to shape your eyebrows – ever!

Face with a Heart Eyebrow tutorialWhen I do someone’s makeup I always start with the eyebrows. It is one of the steps I never skip. There are some core fundamentals to achieve the ‘Face with a Heart’ look, and brows are one of them. Your eyebrows, when you use this method, immediately frame your face better and, if you only had time in the morning to do that one thing, people would still see you better and wouldn’t notice the one piece of makeup on your face.

The Face with a Heart brow technique is shockingly easy. If you can draw two straight lines, then you can maximize your brows quickly and easily.

The face is a curved surface and I find that when you superimpose a straight line onto it you create an optical illusion of lift and energy that still flows with the anatomy of your face. This balances and frames the top part of the heart of your face.

By doing every step of your makeup application in this specific manner, people see less makeup and more you. That is the point, to be authentically beautiful.

Note: This series of video tutorials is organized in a specific order of application. It is not necessary to do every step when you do your makeup but I do suggest you follow the order of the videos and skip the steps that don’t apply to you.

I would love to hear how you get on trying this new method of makeup application – tell me how useful you find the tutorials and how you found the results.
