I have no brows. When I was 19, my mom forced me to get permanent brows tattooed in because she thought it was bad luck to have such little brows. So now I am left with faded blueish hued brows because I have such little hair there. This is my biggest challenge when I do my make up. I don't have ends so I have to add them in with powder but the problem is, it's obvious that that part was added in because there is no hair. I also have no definition to my brows so I don't even know where to begin to shape them. Last week, I met my brow savior, Eugenia Weston, owner and founder of Senna Cosmetics. She is the FIRST brow guru in Hollywood! Her clients include

Angelina Joie, Bette Midler, Jessica Simpson, Ashlee Simpson, Paula Abdul, Elizabeth Berkley, Tori Spelling and many many more. Her line is used in shows like Heroes and Ugly Betty. And you know all those brow stencils that are everywhere? Hello, she developed it 15 years ago and is not even credited for it because she does not believe in advertising and PR. Well, too bad, I went in there and am now her biggest advocate whether she likes it or not. She likes to be the best secret in town because she believes in personalized service. I love her, she gave me eyebrows. Seriously, I think she possesses magical powers or something. First she used the stencil that comes in the brow kit (comes with 4 different stencils and a palette of 3 brow powders with 2 brushes). This pretty much takes care of the hardest part of doing brows for me because it gives me the general shape. Then she uses this most amazing brow wax to add more "hair" especially to the ends where I am missing brows. More powder is added on top of the wax which now has texture and it actually looks like hair! No more obvious point of delineation!!! My entire brows blend in beautifully, my brows look fuller which makes all the difference in the world. The pictures are a little deceptive because they are so closeup and washed out. In person, I am telling you, the difference is mind blowing!! The brow kit does take a little practice to perfect but I am willing to put in the time and energy for perfect brows. The Brow Kit is $42 and Brow Definer Wax is $18. Her entire line is amazing which I will review separately.
Apparently you can now get brow transplants - deeply strange.
