How do I do gradient eyebrows? I have an eyebrow kit by L'Oréal and use it but can't seem to get the gradient effect they always look so obviously done... A detailed explanation or pictorial will help thanks ✨✨✨

That kind of style will always look made up. It translates well on photos and camera.. not so much in person. You can attempt to go as light handed as possible, but eye brows are hair on top of skin and to getting the gradient brow effect does not involve mimicking hair flicks but just applying the product on the skin.

I actually don't think it looks bad in person. I do it all the time :)

I use a pencil as I find it easier to control. I start of in the middle of my brow, always following my natural brow shape. I lightly fill them in using hair like strokes NOT filling in the front. I then use a brush to blend the product and even drag the product a bit towards the front. I'm not adding any extra product, I'm simply using a brush to drag it on towards the front. I then clean them up a bit using either foundation or concealer and set with a clear brow gel. Clear so that I do not add any more color. I'm sorry If I suck at explaining things lol but this is a picture of my brows. Hope I helped a bit.

Never start at the beginning of your brow. Focus most of the product in the middle - toward the end of your brow and use whatever product is left on your brush to do the front of the brow lightly.

I use Anastasia's brush (I believe the #14) and sephora angled eyeliner occasionally with ebony dipbrow in the middle/end and nyx tame and frame for the front.
