Wedding Brow Edit: Get Your Brows Ready for the Big Day
You've picked the date, chosen a venue, and even secured your top choice for bridal hair and makeup, but the prep isn't over yet. Once you've gotten all of the big worries out of the way, the nitty gritty details come into play. With a slew of beauty trends, it can be difficult to decide on the best timeless brow for your wedding day. You want to look like the best version of yourself, yet elevated, and it starts with your brows.
Brows are the framework of your wedding day beauty. They shape the outline of your face, making them one of the most important features to decide upon. Between microblading, lamination, threading, waxing, and tattoo options—there's a lot to consider. Your eyebrows frame your eyes, express your emotions, and add elegance to your features, making them an important part of your bridal look—and potentially the key to some beautiful wedding photos.

First, let them grow. If they start to look a little wild, you can ask a professional to help you shape them, but try to make sure you keep the majority of the volume. Over-tweezed eyebrows can take months to grow, so you're going to need time to encourage your natural shape to come forwards.

For a bolder eye, you're going to need a bolder eyebrow, whereas if you're looking for something more natural, you should be aiming for a soft, feathered look. Start by finding your own natural arch, as this will help to enhance your eye and brighten your face without giving you too much of a permanently surprised expression. Once you have your natural shape, you can accentuate and fill in bare spots wherever necessary. Make sure that the brow lays straight over the brow bone, and fans out towards the temple.

Finally, pick your technique of choice. If you weren't born with bold brows, you can fill them in with a natural shade of eyeshadow or pencil. While pencils are more sculpted and offer extended wear, it's better left to a professional. If you're completing your makeup yourself, powder is much more forgiving and natural if you make a mistake.
