When I was 12 I would flip through Seventeen magazine looking for hairstyles to try, outfits to concoct, and products to MUST HAVE!
When I was 14 I would flip though Cosmopolitan magazine looking for hairstyles to try, outfits to concoct, and products to MUST HAVE!
Although both my reading selections and my idea of what it is to be a woman have morphed, I still can't stand a shabby eyebrow. All too often though, I can be found sporting one. Like this bad momma in super poor lighting:
Ugh, hard to take even myself serious like that. I have some pretty blunt friends so I am surprised no one has scheduled an intervention.
Back to my teenage choice of magazines....
every third issue had a Tweezerman in the MUST HAVE section. They must have paid the magazines!
Anyhow, I always wanted one, but have stuck this whole time to the cheap Revlon tweezers that would close uneven and I would have to hold up to the light to see where the hair should actually be when the apparatus closes in order to really grasp the stub of hair.
Now with a family of five I just don't have time to mess with that. And really, that silly excuse of a styling implement should NEVER be okay.
So I didn't get my Tweezerman, but I think I got something better, and you can too!
The 42 BEES slant tip tweezer is the best I have ever used (and I have BORROWED a tweezerman). The entire tip closes firmly including the point. It has a mini comb on the end to perfect that groom, and even comes in a resealable little tube so you can store YOUR tweezer away for yourself (and not for your husband's toolbox! Tell me I am not alone in this one!)
Speaking of the husband I would love to clean up the Ogre's eyebrows with these. Anybody want that video? ;) Let me know, really, peer pressure works! (and his eyebrows are getting a little, ahem, SPRY!)

My trick is that I get my brows done at the salon once every 2 to 3 months then I use their outline to keep my brows kept up in between.
ReplyDeleteGood idea! Get the professional look, but make it last!
DeleteI also use tweezers to take out splinters, glass, thorns, or bee stings as needed. These never are much fun -- especially when you don't have good precision tweezers to use.
ReplyDeletemy trick is actually getting them done at the salon... haha I'm not very good at plucking them myself
ReplyDeleteAlso use them for anything small that gets stuck or stepped on. Also use them to pick up small beads sometimes when making jewelry
ReplyDeleteOoh, now that is something you will want to save the retired Revlons for!
DeleteI wax mine myself and tweeze between applications
ReplyDeleteMine aren't too good...lol, no tricks for me but my oldest twins are wanting to start on their eyebrows. They say they have a unibrow

ReplyDeleteWe use tweezers for splinters too.
ReplyDeleteI actually only use a small pair of scissors to trim my eyebrows. They are in pretty good shape naturally =)
