@redhead1256  Sounds like you found a great solution!  Brows are so tough to manage.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Yes they can be and I had plenty of hair you just couldn't see it now at least it can be seen , I get it waxed everytine I do my nails in that salon. It's tough trying to keep looking good. Some of my friends have gone the tattoo permanent makeup route for their brows and are happy. One friend did the eyeliner looks great but too expensive for me 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

If a person is prone to keloids it is recommended that they skip any form of permanent makeup @redhead1256. Believe me I wish that I could get it but I don’t want scarring.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Mine kind of are too @Ispend2much6 , so annoying. Have you tried MERIT Brow 1980 Volumizing Eyebrow Pomade Gel Black Brown or Westman Atelier Bonne Brow Defining Brow Pencil Slate etc? Not these colors necessarily but I use blackish ones. They cover very well and look natural too. Just ideas. So frustrating. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I joke all the time about my multi colored brows, I find this intriguing @Sunnysmom 

 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@CynthieLu  Which products do you use?  Sometimes I'm mortified when I catch a glance at my brows in certain lighting...or, when people look at my eyes intensely then hurriedly look away I know I've overdone it. lol

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@Ispend2much6 I use Anastasias Ombre Prowder. Pencils, markers, they never suit seem to suit me.  I out line, than fill in most of the time.

I am interested to try a liquid, if it made all the hairs the same colour that would be so neat!

I have Blonde,Red and a few black and brown hairs in my brows.  The worst was when someone was starring at my eyebrows, came close to me and said  "Wow! I've never seen anyone with multi coloured eye brows before!" I felt so embarrassed

That was along time ago, I'm more accepting of it now lol

When I read your words, I was like,  I relate to this! Especially the lighting,  omg some lighting is the worst

 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@CynthieLu  Oh, I'm so sorry!  That's interesting that you use powder; maybe I should give that a shot.

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Isn’t it odd @CynthieLu ?! And in certain light. I find the Merit to dry down very well and it’s not really wet to begin with. Looks so natural. The WA is obv more dry but it’s very smooth and easy to blend. A little goes a long way but the little spoolie at the end corrects anything quickly. I’m always brow challenged and not the best at doing mine so these proved well as brows for dummies like me. Lol. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@Sunnysmom  So you use the WA to fill in gaps, not to shade the white hairs?

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@Sunnysmom  No, but I'm about to- thanks!!

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

When you are done taking pictures of your makeup and you really like how they turned out but notice a brush hair or something on your face that you didn’t brush away. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Yeees those stray hairs 😅 can really muck up a nice pic

I feel this @SportyGirly125 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

When you’re using a magnet to move singles and the magnet picks up the eyeshadow!!!! WTH! It’s happened to me several times and it kills me every time. 

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

When you’re so excited to try your new expensive foundation you pack it for a trip and for the first time ever, a foundation opens up and spills all over. Sadly I lost half of my Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation and it’s become one of my favorites so it’s running out faster than usual. I’m so sad 😞

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I'm so sorry this happened, @makeitup305 ! 😖  Very disappointing I'm sure!

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

It's so disappointing when items spill when you travel, @makeitup305. 🙁

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I have a beauty pet peeve 😅 but it's completely aimed at myself.

 

I hate when I'm doing my mascara and accidentally poke myself in the eye. Uuuugh by now you'd think I'd never miss 😭

Just the worst right? You finish your make up and then the teary eye threatens to ruin that hard work 🤣 but I can only blame me lol

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

I felt the pain reading this. I hate when it happens 😭

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

Hate that @CynthieLu , all the time too!! 😩

Re: Beauty Pet Peeves 2

@Sunnysmom it's no fun when it happens 😓 I'm just surprised when it does. I figure I'd be an expert by now and never miss lol
