Let’s talk about eyebrows today. I have to confess that I’m very lazy when it comes to eyebrows. I don’t pluck and/or trim them regularly. I also do not have the urge to have perfectly shaped eyebrows at all times. I prefer them a bit messy, which looks more natural to me. When I pluck my eyebrows I follow my natural shape. I rarely use stencils. Almost always when I do my make up I also fill in the eyebrows with a pencil or an eyeshadow. I prefer pencils over an eyeshadow, because for me pencils are easier to use. Here are the eyebrow products that I use (more or less) often.
Products in the photo above:
- Philips (eyebrow) trimmer: I use it to trim and shave my eyebrows. Mainly I shave what’s above the shape.
- Japonesque scissors: With scissors I finish what the trimmer didn’t reach and shorten the hair where needed.
- Milani – Brow Fix in 02 Medium: A very practical when you’re traveling. There are two different shadows for eyebrows included, a highlighter, brush, sponge applicator and tiny tweezers. The shadows can be also used as eyeshadows. I thought the lighter shade would be perfect for me, but it’s a bit too yellow.
- Essence Stylist Set comes with two shadows, three stencils and a brush. One of the stencils fits me, but I rarely use it. I like that the shadows are ashy toned and not too yellow. I use the lighter shade often. I don’t like the packaging.
- Anastasia Beverly Hills 17A brush is a nice brush. I like that it’s stiff but the bristles are not harsh. Though I’d prefer if it wouldn’t be so wide.
- Anastasia Beverly Hills brow pencil in Ash Blonde: Love this pencil. It’s very hard and I love the light ashy color.
- Make Up Factory – Eyebrow Styler 6: Another favourite of mine. It’s darker and a bit more yellow toned, but still natural looking. This one is the softest of all brow pencils that I have.
- CK – eyebrow pencil in Blonde: Nice pencil but a bit too grey.
- Essence – Eyebrow Designer in 03 Light Brown: Nice color but I really have no idea why did they put shimmer in it?!
- Essence – Lash & Brow gel mascara: I use it to keep my eyebrows in place. It not like an hair gel, but it still does the job.
I forgot to include my tweezers in the photo above.
This is how the trimmer looks like.

Now I’m curious what are your holy grail products when it comes to eyebrows?
Kot že naslov pove, so današnja tema obrvi. Priznam, da sem izredno lena, ko se gre za obrvi. Ne pulim in/ali krajšam jih redno. Prav tako nimam neke posebne želje, da bi imela vedno perfektno urejene obrvi. Všeč so mi, če so malenkost neurejene, ker tako izgledajo bolj naravno. Ko jih pulim in oblikujem, sledim svoji naravni liniji. Redko uporabljam šablone. Skoraj vedno, ko si delam make up, zapolnim tudi obrvi s svinčnikom ali senčilom. Prednost dajem svinčnikom, ker se mi zdijo enostavnejši za uporabo. Ko pa si oblikujem in krajšam (urejam) obrvi, uporabljam naslednje pripomočke.
Izdelki, ki so na zgornji fotografiji:
- Philips prikrajševalnik (a je to sploh beseda?): Uporabljam ga za krajšanje in britje obrvi. Brijem le dlačice, ki so izven linije.
- Japonesque škarje: S škarjami dokončam, česar aparat za krajšanje ni uspel narediti. Skrajšam dlake, ki štrlijo iz linije.
- Milani – Brow Fix v odtenku 02 Medium: Zelo praktičen set za na poti. V setu sta dve senčili, osvetljevalec, čopiček, gobica in mini pinceta. Senčila se da uporabiti tudi kot senčila za oči. Mislila sem, da bo svetlejši odtenek super zame, a je preveč rumen.
- Essence Stylist Set vsebuje dve senčili, tri šablone in čopiček. Ena od šablon mi presenetljivo ustreza, a jo kljub temu zelo redko uporabim. Senčili sta mi všeč, ker nista preveč rumeni. Svetlejšo kar pogosto uporabim. Embalaža je precej nerodna.
- Anastasia Beverly Hills 17A čopič je zelo dober čopič. Všeč mi je, ker je trd, a dlake niso grobe. Še bolj bi mi bil všeč, če bi bil malenkost ožji.
- Anastasia Beverly Hills svinčnik za obrvi v odtenku Ash Blonde. Super svinčnik! Precej trd in super odtenek, ki je ravno prav pepelnat.
- Make Up Factory – Eyebrow Styler 6: Še en moj favorit. Tale svinčnik je temnejši in malenkost bolj rumenkast, a še zmeraj izgleda naravno. Med vsemi svinčniki za obrvi, ki jih imam, je tale najmehkejši.
- CK – svinčnik za obrvi v odtenku Blonde: Malenkost preveč siv zame.
- Essence – Eyebrow Designer v odtenku 03 Light Brown: Lep odtenek, a resnično mi ni jasno, zakaj so morali dodati šimer?!
- Essence – Lash & Brow gel maskara: Uporabljam jo, da utrdim obrvi. Ni sicer kot vosek ali gel za lase, a še kar dobro opravi svoje delo.
Na fotografijo sem pozabila vključiti svojo pinceto.
Tako izgleda Philips prikrajševalnik.

Sedaj pa me zanima, kaj so vaši najljubši izdelki za oblikovanje obrvi?
Zanima me kje si kupila Essence Eyebrow Stylist Set ker sem ga iskala že povsod pa ga ni nikjer? Hvala za odg. :wink:

I am shoced! You have soo many beautiful comsmetics! :)) In glot palette in the right side of blog is brilliant :> Lucky you! :))
Hello moi jene me maquille pas les surcils mais je les épile quand meme lol bises
Moje obrvi potrebujejo le pinceto in občasno črn svinčnik, da zapolnim praznine. Je prav hecno, ker so moji lasje naravno svetlo rjavi-blond obrvi so pa čisto črne :unsure:
Hvala bogu da so sedaj močne obrvi v modi :wink:
Obrvi so praktično vedno temnejše od las. :yes:
Ti kar ponosno “nosi” svoje črne obrvi! :cute:
