Still learning how to groom your eyebrows at home? Or perhaps you consider yourself a pro when it comes to plucking. Either way, there are certain tools you should have in your brow kit. They include tweezers, an eyebrow comb and a bevy of brushes designed to maintain your arches. That’s right, eyebrows aren’t one brush fits all — you actually need different ones for adding color, putting on powders or just general maintenance. It also depends on what eyebrow look you’re going for: thicker, thinner or natural. From sculpting eyebrow brushes ideal for pomades to spoolies perfect for blending and even an eyeliner brush begging to be used to fill in sparse hairs, we’ve got you and your brows covered.
