Photography and video by Iuliana PopescuDarlings, today we continue the tutorials in collaboration with Sephora and I’m going to show how to achieve perfect eyebrows. First, what kind of eyebrows do you consider perfect? Thin or thick eyebrows?I really like the shape I have right now, though, I’d love a bit more fullness. This method I discovered from Benefit (way before this tutorial) seems to do this exact thing; it brings definition to my form and when they are dyed they become more intense.So, let me tell you more about this procedure, even though you’ll see it in the video also. Benefit created this personalized method to pamper your eyebrows and pink brow bars where this procedure is done. In...
