Brow course

The brow course covers one subject completely, because the brow is the only feature whose alteration changes an entire expression. It is a makeup course rather than a treatment course — permanent makeup and pigmentation are not part of the programme.

The three-point rule

Brow shape is not arbitrary: it is set by your own facial proportions through three points — the head, the high point and the tail. All three are found by drawing lines from the nostril.

This is the foundation block and it makes the largest practical difference. Most people draw brows according to fashion rather than according to their own face, and correcting that alone is already a result.

Colour and texture

The second block covers colour. The main rule — one shade lighter than dark hair, one shade darker than light hair — is simple and is broken more often than any other in makeup.

Texture gets its own treatment: pencil, powder, gel and wax produce different results and suit different kinds of brow.

Filling technique

The third block is practical: how to fill a brow so that it does not look drawn on.

  • Short strokes following the natural growth direction
  • Product only where hair is missing
  • The head always lightest — this is the most common single error
  • Setting last, or a powder product fades within two hours

Asymmetry and how to handle it

No two brows match, and trying to force them to worsens the result. The course covers what to correct and what to leave alone.

The practical rule: heads at the same height, tails on the same line, and the middle of each brow left with its own natural shape.

Who it is for

The course serves two audiences. For a working artist it is a specialisation used in every single appointment.

For someone learning for their own face it is frequently the only block they genuinely needed, because a correctly filled brow changes a face more than a full application does.

Frequently asked questions

Does it cover permanent makeup?
No. This is a makeup course; permanent makeup, pigmentation and similar procedures are not included — they are a separate profession with medical hygiene requirements.
How do I find the right brow shape?
Through three points found by drawing lines from the nostril: the head, the high point and the tail. They are individual and owe nothing to fashion.
Can I take just the brow course?
Yes. It stands alone and does not require the full programme, particularly if you are learning for your own face.
Why do my brows look drawn on?
The two commonest reasons: the product is distributed evenly, and the head is as dark as the middle. Both are corrected practically on the course.
