There are many things we can achieve with makeup if we team up with the right techniques. He contouring made magic when it came to defining the features, a good lip liner has a plump effect and a makeup antiaging It can even lift a drooping eyelid.

But there is much more that can be done, for example makeup artist Leire Erdociain, explains from her Instagram account that you can instantly elevate your look, just by working your eyebrows well. The expert comments that if you achieve raised and defined eyebrows, you will also be able to frame your face in a very natural and elegant way.

For a raised eyebrow effect, there are many makeup tricks that we can do, but as the makeup artist says: “The eyebrows are literally the natural frame of our face,” and only by modifying this part of the face can we achieve the elevated look effect.

The first thing Leire recommends doing, after having previously cleansed the skin so that it does not have any trace of makeup or impurities, is to take an eyebrow gel. This should allow us to comb the eyebrow and leave it exactly where we want,” explains the expert.

With this step of combing and fixing with the gel, the result is great. Here the makeup artist highlights that with this simple gesture the effect is spectacular, especially if we compare it with the other uncombed eyebrow.

When the product has dried, we can move on to the next step, which is to fill in the eyebrows. Here we can use a powder type product or an eyeliner type marker. Erdociain highlights that he loves this type of marker because they have a very fine tip and with them it is very easy to make a super precise line. This way it is easier to fill in the gaps and create hair by hair.

Although he confesses that the duration of Catrice's Brow Powder Set has a spectacular duration thanks to its waterproof formula. The powder serves to mattify the eyebrow gel a little and since this palette comes with two shades, the makeup artist recommends “taking the darker tone to apply on the arch and the final part of the eyebrow, and with the lighter tone on the front, to create a clearer and more natural eyebrow effect,” she says.
