My Current Brow Routine and Obsession


I have a major love for eyebrows. For me there’s no point in having amazing makeup if you’re not going to bring your eyebrows into the mix.

I love getting my eyebrows done; I get them threaded every 4-6 weeks in Elysian Brown on South William Street. They are a bit pricey but from experiencing other cheaper salons that do threading they really are worth the money. For years I was going to BT2 in Dundrum to get them done, the girl there was amazing and always threw in a free head massage, unfortunately she ended up getting deported which left me in limbo and with butchered eyebrows for a few months before I found the holy grail of eyebrow threading  in Elysian Brows. It was a real first world problem but eyebrows really frame the face and for me even if I don’t have any proper makeup on as long as my brows are lovely and groomed then I can get away with having no makeup out in public.

I used to get my brows tinted but after getting my hair blonder I stopped doing that, I also fill in my brows so that does any darkening up I need. Before I went to America I was using just any light brown pencil to fill them in and the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow powder.
I love the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow products, at the moment you can only buy them in Elysian Brows in Dublin or you can buy them online. I waited to buy more of their brow products when I was in the States, I headed straight to Sephora when I got their and picked up the Dipbrow Pomade and the Brow Wizz brow pencil.


I have the Brow Wizz in Soft Brown and Dark Brown. I bought the Soft brown and the Dark Brown was in one of my Sephora Favourites boxes. I use the Dark Brown to draw in the ends of my brows and to get a sculpted shape between the middle of my eye to the end of the brow. The Soft brown is used to fill in the front of my brows and shape everything up that end. If I used the Dark Brown all over my brows it would probably look a bit Scouse brow but by using the colours at either end make it a lot more natural looking. This is all I do now for my daily brow routine like going to work or just a Saturday afternoon.

Too step my routine up for night time or just to make them even more sculpted I do the same routine with the Brow Wizz but I add in the Dipbrow Pomade just to make them more defined. I have a dual ended spooly that I bought from Crown Brush which has a little angled brush at the end which I use to apply the pomade. Again I mostly apply it towards the end of the brow but if you really want that HD Brow look then you can apply it at the start of the brow. When I have all that done I take a little bit of concealer and just clean everything up, doing this really highlights the brow and really defines it.

So I have a bit of a brow obsession, I’m very particular about who does my brows and what goes on them but having such bushy brows that grow pretty quickly and crazily it’s one thing that I need to have perfect.

Thanks for reading and hopefully I’m not the only one out there with the love of brows!

Love Sarah xoxo
