Palm Print Jumpsuit & How I Wow My Brows

Hope everyone’s had an enjoyable holiday weekend! We spent part of it at the beach with family – and will spend the rest of it getting ready for back-to-school. I wanted to quickly share one of my favourite beach outfits – this palm print jumpsuit – it’s so easy to pull on over a swimsuit. The green version has sold out, but this print is still available.

I also wanted to feature a couple of products that I’ve been testing out over the summer. Benefit released a line-up of 9 new brow products in July – and they have been game changers. There’s a product for EVERY thing – from brow volumizing fiber gel to nutrient-rich primers – they even have highlighters for brow hairs!

When it comes to grooming my brows, I’m very low-maintenance. I think fuller brows are popular because they can make you look more
youthful, but if you apply too much product, it can end up looking too severe. Luckily – the Benefit brow products are very natural-looking yet effective. My two must-have products are “precisely, my brow pencil” and “high-brow“.

My brow routine is very simple:

• I use “precisely, my brow pencil” to outline the shape of my brows, gently filling in any gaps. This pencil has a super-fine tip, so you have a lot of control. 
• I focus most of my colour on the outer half of my eyebrow and use a VERY light hand in the inner corner. If you look in my before & after picture, you can see that I’ve made the tail ends of my brows a bit thicker.
• I use a cotton swab to clean off any excess product and go over any dark areas
• I turn the brow pencil around and use the spoolie side (looks like a mascara wand) to brush through. This transforms the product and makes it look like tiny hairs as opposed to drawn-on colour.  I love that the formula is water-proof and very long-lasting.
• I take the “high-brow” pencil and draw a line on my browbone, starting beneath the arch of my brow and going outwards. I use my fingers to blend out. You can see the highlight in the pic on the right – it defines my brow and makes it look lifted.

I’ve
tested many different brow pencils over the years – and “precisely, my brow pencil” is my absolute
favourite because it’s the most natural looking and is very easy to
apply – if you’re looking for a new brow product, I HIGHLY recommend this pencil!
