I've never, ever done anything to my brows...I only started to shape them about 6 years ago (seriously) & they've never looked that good. I'm not blessed in the brow department.

Aww bless you ladies but trust me, it's taken me years to get brows that I am happy with. Like Lorny I used to shave mine off and draw them in for years, to the point where when I was about 25 they just wouldn't grow back in anymore no matter how long I left it. I had to use an eyelash growth product to get them to come back in and it took months. Even now I have to draw them in daily as they are still too sparse for my liking and too fair to match my hair. These days I just tidy up the outside edge underneath and pencil them in every day to define the shape. I would KILL for naturally full brows that grew evenly of their own accord.

I seem to have caught the make up bug again though, here's my slap from yesterday. I figured I'd make the most of it before I have to go back to work today and I barely have time to wash in the mornings nevermind put make up on.

I think we have the exact same brow situation Dystopatica, and Lorny. Yours look a lot better than mine though! I'm still getting the hang of filling mine in, rather than drawing the whole thing on. I'm so much happier with them now, even if they are sparse, its my own fault! Anyway, love both your make up looks, especially the green. Lovely haircut too :D

You look amazing Kaja! Just seen these on FB and wow.

And the brow thing im in exactly the same situation. I hate levaing the house withoput doing my brows because they are just too sparse and light. I use a soft pencil and the brow powder over the top.

How do you like Medusa's makeup? I have been looking at their products for a while but haven't taken the plunge yet.
