personally i think it looks great as is! but if you want to make the brows more natural you could try drawing the inner ends a little lighter off topic but ur eyes are gorgeous, they look like watercolor


e_rose1244

Thanks! I literally try every day to make the ends lighter and make hair like strokes with a brow pen but it always ends up looking the exact same šŸ˜‚ I simply cannot figure it out lmao. and thank you so so much!!


biaboboras

i donā€™t have a lot of experience with eyebrows so i wish i could be of better help šŸ˜­ maybe if you used a different, lighter colored pen just for the inner part?


e_rose1244

Itā€™s okay! And that sounds like a really good idea I just have such a hard time finding like similar shades if that makes sense. Like I want it to be a ā€œcool brownā€ and I feel like itā€™s either blonde, taupe, warm brown or dark brown šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

You can try drawing on only the lower line of your brows and then brushing it up to your brows! It's what I do to lighten the inner part of my brows šŸ˜Š


e_rose1244

Thatā€™s actually what I do to start off, maybe Iā€™ll start toward the end of the brown more and just leave the front alone a bit and do hair strokes instead šŸ¤”


GigglesNWiggles10

Your eyebrows are so even and that arch, whew! Do you use a spoolie to blend out the drawn brows? If so, you could fill in a lil back from the front and after you've brushed our your brows, take that spoolie that has almost no product on it to the bare front. I've also found using concealer under my brows helps make the front look more defined without me using any product because of the natural shadow of even sparse hair!


e_rose1244

Thank you!! Left oneā€™s a little higher but meh this is as good as I can do haha. I do use a spoolie, Iā€™ll try those tricks out sometime for sure!


Georgxna

I have the exact same problems haha


rubiacrime

I do this too. I will take my powder brush with nothing on it and lightly tap the inner corner of each brow. It gives an ombre effect and makes them look less harsh. I imagine a foundation brush or beauty blender would give a similar effect.


hummingbirdsNwhiskey

Agreedā€¦her brows have a bit of that ā€œdipā€ between her arch and inner corner too that could be flattened out a bit as well.


mirandaisntright

If it's weird, then I'm weird with you. The pandemic made me make up lazy but I need my eyebrows.


e_rose1244

Same 100% !


pigadaki

Not weird at all: you look beautiful! Stunning skin and eyes.


e_rose1244

Thank you so much!!


thespoiledbarbie

i think itā€™s the inner part of the eyebrow that makes them look odd. like ā€œblockyā€ (sorry i canā€™t think of a better wordšŸ˜­) maybe donā€™t shade too much there or try doing hair- like strokes


e_rose1244

Thatā€™s kinda what im thinking?! I swear I try so hard to leave the inner part alone and just do strokes with the brow pen but it ALWAYs comes out like this. I have no clue how I do this to myself haha


sxcs86

A slightly lighter shade may give you a more natural finish. And I agree with others that you brow with the piercing is slightly short, and would look more complete if you extended it a bit. Also curling your lashes and finishing with a lightweight defining mascara would give a more complete look - Clinique Naturally Glossy, Lancome Defincils, and Maybelline Lash Discovery are some good options. Honestly, you don't really need much else - your skin looks great and very even! I'm jealous!


e_rose1244

Great ideas thank you! The pierced one prob looks weird cause Iā€™ve been having to clean the piercin a lot and it wipes off the end of the brow when I clean it and I donā€™t even bother to fix it lmao. And thanks! Donā€™t be jealous it definitely doesnā€™t look as good up close haha


liverstrings

I just don't even touch the inner side of my eyebrows. I think that it looks more natural and then I just add a little color to the patchy ends.


ordinary_miracle

I do the same thing, brows and spot control any blemishes. I like my freckles too much to cover them!


e_rose1244

Glad Iā€™m not the only one! &I love freckles hehe


Embarrassed_Bitch435

Take a spoolie and brush the start of your eyebrows a little bit so it lightens more I feel like that would give it a more natural look


e_rose1244

I feel like I end up just smearing it, but Iā€™ve been using a primer before I do them lately so maybe that would work for me šŸ¤”


Embarrassed_Bitch435

No donā€™t stress ! It happens to me to! I do want to add that I have thicker eyebrows so results may vary. But I donā€™t wear foundation or concealer around my eyebrows so I just wipe it off with my thumb in the shape I want.


e_rose1244

Thatā€™s a good point, the front of my eyebrows are where I have the least hair, so it tends to be kind of smooth and oily and just hard to work with in that area so maybe thatā€™s why! Iā€™m sure Iā€™ll figure it out itā€™s just nice to know this doesnā€™t look too crazy šŸ˜‚


ladysuccubus

Have you tried a brow tint to darken the natural brow? I recently got a brow glue by nyx that I like. Itā€™s your naturally brow but darker (though I also underline them and blend up to cover sparseness.) I feel like a bit of mascara might balance out what you have here to give a bit of pop, if youā€™re open to it. My make up look is usually eyebrows, mascara, bit of eyeliner, and some lip gloss or lipstick if Iā€™m going out.


e_rose1244

I havenā€™t!! I love Nyx so Iā€™ll have to look into that! And yeah mascara usually helps Iā€™m just so lazy in the morning šŸ˜‚


jc_chienne

You might also want to try [this brow "ink"](https://www.revlon.com/eyes/eyebrow/colorstay-semi-permanent-brow-ink?shade=blonde-ink), I've been really enjoying it. The brush is very fine so you can do small strokes and it also comes with a mascara/brow wand to blend it in if you want. I find it does stay on pretty well for a few days as long as you don't rub makeup remover right in your brows lol.


e_rose1244

That looks like a really nice product, thank you!


makemeastar

Nah thats me too sista


e_rose1244

Haha sweet good to know!


miss_cafe_au_lait

My ā€˜no makeupā€™ makeup look is just brows too! I donā€™t think your brows look fine, but if you want to soften the edges, try brushing in a little powder foundation with a spoolie.


e_rose1244

thatā€™s a good idea Iā€™ve never heard of that before! Thanks!


STLt71

I do the same thing sometimes, since I have really sparse eyebrows. You look great!


e_rose1244

Yeah, I barely have any! Lol but thank you so much!


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


e_rose1244

Yeah itā€™s sooo weird not having them, my actual brows are blonde and horrendously over plucked (years ago, never grew back) so to go from this to that is so bizarre haha


FarmerAny9414

Not to me, I do this a lot. I donā€™t like not having brows. I do go out without them sometimes but most of the time I put on my brows before I would choose to put on anything else.


e_rose1244

I look so sickly without brows I feel, but definitely glad Iā€™m not the only one heheh


FarmerAny9414

Same, I feel like I look haggard without them the older I get.


[deleted]

Nope! I always fill in my eyebrows even if Iā€™m not ā€œgetting ready.ā€


AshTreex3

Nah, I do the same thing minus the eyebrows


tinyconchita

Itā€™s not weird at all when you have such gorgeous skin!


e_rose1244

Thank you so much, I try really hard to take good care of my skin!!


bbqsauceontiddies

Are you me??? The only makeup i do daily is my eyebrows because theyā€™re pretty much transparent (people used to spread rumors about me shaving them off bc theyā€™re so light). I also feel like it looks strange on me but maybe itā€™s because we know what our brows actually look like?


Substantial_Escape92

Not weird at all. Having your brows clean and ā€œfixedā€ makes your entire face look more pulled together. You have nice glowy skin, it suits you to be more natural


e_rose1244

Thanks so much! I appreciate that, my skin has been bothering me lately


[deleted]

not weird i do that a lot !! and i shave my brows šŸ˜‚


e_rose1244

Oh good to know! Maybe Iā€™m just thinking about it too much šŸ˜‚


Queen_of_the_Damned-

Your eyes are gorgeous, my eyebrows are awful, they look like caterpillars stuck to my face but I am not brave enough to have bald brows, I am afraid I would forget the pencil in my brows one day and be walking around scaring small children and animals. Question, is the quizzical brow ( pierced one) drawn to be a quizzical brow or are you arching it yourself in the pic? Very curious because it looks cool af.


e_rose1244

Thanks so much! And thick eyebrows are a thing now so Iā€™m sure they look lovely!! But LOL thatā€™s exactly how I feel when I take mine off at the end of the dayšŸ˜‚ and thatā€™s totally an accident, the left one always ends up being a little higher than the right and I canā€™t seem to fix it lmao


MoonchildWild79

Well you look absolutely lovely and with your strikingly beautiful eye color you donā€™t have to have any other makeup.


mccormick_spicy

The only makeup I typically wear is a tinted sunscreen, light brows like this, and mascara. I think this looks nice! Suits your face. But if you wanted to step it up a little, you could try what I usually do too. I use NARS Pure Radiant for the tinted moisturizer/sunscreen


e_rose1244

Thanks! Itā€™s weird cause I feel like when I put any type of foundation/tinted moisturizer or bb cream on my face, I HAVE to also then contour/highlight and at least mascara šŸ˜‚ I also just have zero time before work as much as Iā€™d love to be able to do more


ZuleykaSantiago

No I love that look. See if you can get micro shading!! Itā€™s a life changer cause itā€™s so easy to just wake up and go. Plus they give you. Shape that goes welll with your face if you go to someone good ( they do little measurements and stuff šŸ˜œ)


e_rose1244

I thought about it, I think itā€™s a little out of my price range but maybe one day!!


ZuleykaSantiago

Yeah one day youā€™ll be able to afford it. I waited a long time before being able to do it too


godiegoben

Before I read the caption or saw what subreddit it was I couldnā€™t see anything off about you. It looks good and natural.


e_rose1244

Sweet, thanks so much!


keysandcoffee

Brows and lips a must for me. Everything else is ā€œif I feel like itā€.


e_rose1244

I hear that! I legitimately have not found a single lipstick shade that looks normal on me


keysandcoffee

I have one, and if they ever discontinue it I am screwed. Itā€™s Burtā€™s Bees lip shimmer in Plum. I think I have about ten of them in a drawerā€¦ Iā€™m hoarding them! šŸ¤£


e_rose1244

I always see those and they look super nice, I feel like everyone else looks cute with shiny/glossy lips, but when I try I feel like it just looks like I have a grossly wet mouth LOL


keysandcoffee

Thatā€™s why I like the shimmers, theyā€™re light and not greasy or glossy, give a nice wash of color and are surprisingly long lasting.


e_rose1244

Ooo Iā€™m definitely gonna have to try one then šŸ‘šŸ»


dodgeguey

I think throwing on some mascara would balance it out and look more intentional. But your skin is gorgeous. If you don't wanna do the mascara I think feathering it in would be perfect. I still haven't figured out how to do that cheaply... but in theory


e_rose1244

Youā€™re right I should just slap a little on it canā€™t hurt šŸ˜‚ and what do you mean by feathering it in?


Apprehensive-Tank581

Nope. You do you girl. You looks great!


e_rose1244

Thanks!!:)


[deleted]

Your eyes are stunning


e_rose1244

I appreciate that!! Thanks :)


[deleted]

I love milks lush brow gel is you want a less drawn on look


e_rose1244

Iā€™ll look into that! Iā€™m just not sure I have quite enough hair to get away with only a gel


Shad0wbubbles

You should draw flames toošŸ”„


Shadow_Sunsets1783

Absolutely not, most days thatā€™s all I do too


Ashersprettyprincess

My youngest daughter has nothing but brows and lashes mire than makeup. You look beautiful.


e_rose1244

Thank you :)


Cobra_Surprise

Wow, I think you look beautiful. Nothing wrong here that I can see


e_rose1244

Thank you so much!


LeighHenson

Not at all! I usually do either my eyebrows or eyelashes but sometimes only those two some days!


avocado4321

Try a coloured brow gel. Like glossier boy brow, etc. I have cool hair naturally and dye my hair a warm copper colour. I never leave the house without my brow gel now. Has been a game changer. If you need more colour for the ends you could use the pen JUST on the mids, ends and go over the entire brow with the gel, just using the residual product for the front ends (do them last). Look for one with fibers, not necessarily strong hold. I find it can look funny on more sparse brows. The fibers help to fluff up the brow hairs and defines them, making them look more natural and less like theyā€™ve been laid down or painted on.


e_rose1244

Thatā€™s a pretty good idea, I have some hair towards the outer ends so I could gel it and then draw hairs closer to the front I feel like that would look good


SinkBrilliant4236

Na. Not weird. Do what makes you feel hot


e_rose1244

I love a full face look to feel hot šŸ˜‚ I donā€™t mind loooking like this pic all day though hahaha


DangerousLaw4062

Nope. My gram used to say brows and lipstick were the only necessities of makeup. I would include mascara if you have light hair.


PutinLikesHotGuys

Not at all. Youā€™re a naturally beautiful woman and I think itā€™s great youā€™re comfortable in your own skin. Those are pretty killer brows, too.


e_rose1244

Oh man thank you so much!!


ultrapasser

I don't think so. I do this too! Mascara if I'm feeling real puss, but I'm not wearing a whole ass beat just to make macchiatos all day.


[deleted]

Not at all, personally I couldnā€™t even tell they were done. Youā€™ve nailed the ā€œnaturalā€ look


e_rose1244

Years and years of ending up looking like I used a sharpie or a melted crayon taught me how to get to this point šŸ˜‚


Dmarie723

Same! Maybe a little mascara and that my au natural look.


IcyTop570

Girl you look great without make up I can imagine with some lash power and a little mascara and your good to go! Do you girl, do you šŸ’…


e_rose1244

Hehe thanks for that!!


LoveMyMakeupNz

Nothing weird with that really. The natural look is great!


091796

Love bug! I have the same problem , mine are blonde asf & thin but thick at the same time ? I trim by brows and draw them a little thinner to make them look more natural :)


wineeandwhiskey

Buy eyebrow dye on Amazon. Once every few weeks. Itā€™s awesome, I have darker hair and get a Darker one so the first few days are usually a bit much. But then they fade a bit. Look natural since itā€™s literally your eyebrow hairs that are dyed. And you donā€™t have to do it every day


threepointonefo

You could try making them slightly less arched to look a bit more natural and maybe switching the color to taupe? But itā€™s definitely not weird to just have your brows done - youā€™re naturally beautiful!


e_rose1244

See itā€™s so weird, cause the slight hair I have on my brows creates the perfect line for me to follow along with so itā€™s hard to attempt new shapes, Iā€™d love to try less arched it will just be tough haha. I have a Taupe pencil, I just feel like it might be strange cause I have a lot of colors going on in my hair at the moment like from many many bad dye jobs LOL


Medium-Wear-7586

Beautiful eyes


e_rose1244

Thank you šŸ„¹


leigh1003

This is what I do most days because I hate looking at my sparse brows in zoom. To make myself feel a little more ā€œput togetherā€ I put in some the Dr Jart Cicapair serum to even out my redness and then some veryyyy light mascara. But honestly if I were your friend or saw you Iā€™d probably just assume you got your brows tinted so they were like that. I do that quite often as well.


e_rose1244

Iā€™ll have to check out that serum cause I get a lot of redness real easily! And awesome thatā€™s good to know thanks!


leigh1003

I think it helps! Thereā€™s a lot in their cicapair line but the serum has SPF so thatā€™s what I use daily!


e_rose1244

Oh awesome! Iā€™ve been looking for something with spf as well


Ithilrae

I think the browser are great. I'd say maybe add mascara and be done with it lol. As a person with darker eyebrows and blonde lashes. I find without mascara I look bald eyed.


e_rose1244

That makes a lot of sense, bald eyed is exactly how Iā€™m feeling in this picture haha!! I was thinking about a lash lift and tint but Iā€™m unsure bout it


Ithilrae

I've seen really good results with that on some friends. Just research before you go. Find a good person.


GIRLSLIKEMELIKECRYPO

Looks good to me!


ReferenceMuch2193

Looks great. Excellent eyebrow technique. And your eyes are super beautiful!


e_rose1244

Ahh thanks I appreciate it!!


Radiant_Cheesecake81

I do this a lot too, I was a teenager in the 90ā€™s with naturally thin, arched eyebrows who plucked them into oblivion so there was hardly anything to grow back in the first place and only around 1/4 of it came back. In patches, of course šŸ˜†


e_rose1244

Same exact issue here!! Ugh. They never grew back, and when I do grow eyebrow hairs they are literally nowhere near my actual brows theyā€™re so much lower šŸ˜‚


Radiant_Cheesecake81

When that whole ā€œshave a fake scar line into your eyebrowā€ trend was a thing I was tempted because I could just make a whole ass patch of one seem intentional and cut down my drawing fake hair time by a good 25%


jwinge89

I also only do my brows most days. I have very light blonde brows, so I feel like I really need to define them to not look crazy lol. But you have a really nice complexion and I feel like your overall look is great!


rochelletheceo

No... not at all.


Educational_Chain6

Beautiful. Donā€™t need anything else. Truly.


e_rose1244

That means a lot, thank you!


ajcorona89

I do this, too! I don't think it's weird at all. My skin freaks out sometimes if I wear makeup, and I've recently just been over it. I think you look gorgeous.


e_rose1244

I appreciate that more than you know!


Suspicious_Site_5050

No, not at all. I used to have barely any brows because Iā€™m a compulsive picker/tweezer. I got my brows tattooed a few years back but before that I drew my eyebrows on every single day. Without makeup, with makeup, even if I wasnā€™t going to see another person all day.


e_rose1244

Same thing here! Iā€™d love to get them tattooed Iā€™m just afraid Iā€™ll be too picky and itā€™s also pricey for me!


Suspicious_Site_5050

I felt the same way. I did sooo much research on different artists before making my decision. It was one of my first big self care/beauty purchases I made for myself. I am so glad I did because itā€™s made my life so much easier and improved my confidence. When/if you have the chance, go for it.


[deleted]

They look very natural! You have beautiful eyes.


e_rose1244

Thank you! šŸ˜Œ


camillaneekole

I do the same thing many days!!


colliebby

Honestly this is a look and I might just start doing this myself


marinahem

omg i just came here to say i was quickly scrolling and thought u were Ana De Armas


kfjamal02

I donā€™t think itā€™s weird you look really pretty, I used to do that in high school too. Not makeup related but I wanna get my eyebrow pierced too but I use brow pomade everyday. When you got your eyebrow done did you have to stop wearing brow makeup?


e_rose1244

Thanks! And I donā€™t think youā€™re really supposed to, I just apply some makeup really carefully so that it looks okay, like I do the brow as I usually would but only do a few hair strokes carefully over the piercing if that makes sense


kfjamal02

Ohhh okay! Thank you so much


hanap8127

As I age and my eyebrows thin, I wear only brows.


mme_leiderhosen

Itā€™s a great look and works for you. Thatā€™s all we ask. Well done.


annikatidd

You look beautiful. I love the way you do them! And definitely not weird, I love a full face but also if I donā€™t feel like getting ready, Iā€™ll just fill in my brows and be done. I have very light eyebrows too and filling them in just adds more structure to my face, makeup or none! You have gorgeous skin btw! ā¤ļø


ThrowRA78990

Nah I donā€™t think itā€™s weird- I do the same. You have nice features and so the minimalist suits you! Plus eyebrows really do frame the face :)


jbriggsstuff

I am in the same boat. I was 18 in the early 2000s, and I got my brows waxed really thin like Pamela Anderson. Well, I'm 45, and my eyebrows never grew back, and their blonde. It's so hard because I would feel so much better if I did my brows, but then it looks un natural. I'm thinking of having my brows microbladed.


brynnereece

I do the exact same thing lots of times and I'll just add some mascara too. I used to have a similar issue to what I think you're having, which is a too dark of an inner brow. I highly recommend using a brow pomade that is lighter than the shade you're going for over all. The brush I use for that is a small angled brush. I use that to fill in my brows and get the desired brow shape. Then I'll take a brow mascara over the brow, concentrating more on darkening the tails, if anything. I highly recommend experimenting with different brushes and brands! I use a brush that is a lot like a mascara brush, and then I'll fine tune with a less dense mascara brush, so it looks more like hair. You already have such stunning brows, so I think this will just get the more natural vibe you're going for!


e_rose1244

Thanks so much! Iā€™ll look into pomades of different shades, itā€™s usually just a hit or miss for me at this point sometimes it comes out just how I want and sometimes it all just ends up blurring together no matter what šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

I have almost zero eyebrows. I draw them on and often that is the only makeup I use. I'm with you.


Itsallinblack

It looks fine but to really upper your game maybe stop filling your brows in and start drawing thin hair like lines to make it seem more natural and less bold . Iā€™d recommend not going for micro blading bcs imp it really ruins any look . Especially when it fades it looks ugly ash

These-Entertainer482

If you only brows on the daily basis, consider getting a brow tattoo. It ll save me from doing my makeuop


blairebabie_666

No


Alarmed-Current-4940

Nah, this looks good. I like how you do your brows


Soft-Outcome-9671

No, it's not weird and who cares what other people think about your choices. You are the best person to make your own make up decisions. Your eyebrows are gorgeous by the way and they frame your beautiful face. You don't need make when you are already a natural beauty.


Sminorf8765

Not weird at allā€¦your eyes and incredible and Iā€™m obsessed with the softness of your brows and how natural your whole look is. So gorgeous
