Build Up Your Brows
Full, softly arched brows make your eyelids look lifted, and draw attention up and away from undereye puffiness and dark circles. Use short, feathery strokes to fill in your brows with a pencil (a taupe shade works on most brow colors and skin tones) and then brush them up and out with a spoolie brush. Dior's Diorshow Brow Styler Ultra-Fine Precision Brow Pencil ($29, Sephora.com) is a favorite among makeup artists. "The texture is dry enough to stay put all day, the universal color really does work on everyone, and it has a spoolie on one end," makeup artist Troy Surratt says.
