Whether or not you’re into thick brows, like model Cara Delevingne, know your tools!

One of the most recurring makeup trends has to do with the eyebrows in some shape or form, whether it be bold brows or ombrecoloured brows. That being said, makeup for the eyebrows is probably one of the most skipped or overlooked cosmetic, mainly because women don't know what products to use or how to apply them.

There are numerous eyebrow products out there, including powders, pencils, liquids, waxes and gels. To know which type of product is best for you, it's beneficial to know the certain looks each product achieves.

Brow powders often come in a variety of shades and usually create a softer eyebrow (if applied properly). These are perfect for those who want to add depth to their brows or even change their colour. The best way to apply this product is by using an angled brush and blending it with a spoolie brush, which looks like a mascara wand. The downside to this product is that it isn't very water- or sweat-resistant, which means you need to set it with a gel or wax.

Brow pencils usually come in two forms; wax-based and kohlbased. A wax-based pencil will be more water-resistant and longwearing, whereas a kohl-based pencil will be more chalky. A brow pencil in general usually creates a “harder” look and is really good for filling in sparse areas or reshaping the brow. These tend to be a bit harder and need body heat to allow a smooth application. Make sure you blend really well with a brush to create a natural look.

Liquid brow pens are a newer cosmetic product and not many brands produce this type, probably because they can be a bit harder to use. The benefit of this product is it tends to be waterproof and can create a very natural look if applied properly. When using this product, you need to create little brush strokes as if you were drawing in hairs, or else it can look very solid and unnatural.

The last two types of brow products are gels and waxes, which are generally used for holding the brow hairs in place or setting another eyebrow makeup. Some gels have tints in them, which will darken the brows, giving the illusion that they are thicker. That being said, some brow gels dry very hard and can feel weird on the face, while a wax is more flexible.
