I learned this trick from one of the eyebrow ladies I went to back in college. After each waxing session, she put a little aloe vera gel on my brows to help soothe the area and set the shape of the brow.

Aloe vera gel is light and provides a really gentle hold. It has no scent and it won’t irritate skin or harden your eyebrow hair like other stiffer gels might…

Just dab a little bit on your brows and gently comb them into shape. You can use old mascara wand orrrrr, if you’re a Mavala Double Lash junkie like myself you can use the applicator that comes with the product

Taking the time to do this along with tweezing stray hairs really helps extend the life of each eyebrow waxing, so I they look neater for longer. This becomes important when you are broke but still pay what I do to get your eyebrows waxed and threaded, but that’s another posting altogether…

As far as brand, I’ve had the same a tube of Fruit of the Earth’s clear gel for sometime, but any old store brand will do!

Stay Beautiful
