I don't know if I've said this before, but, you have really beautiful eyes. I love your brows, I love the shape of your eyes, I love your blending, I just love it all. I've never seen any look from you where I didn't say in my head "damn, that's beautiful".

Yeah I know, but actually her brows don't look that bad because they are naturally arched and pretty fine - which is also why they are hard to pluck in a way that would take away the hairs at the rims and leaving her with more than an extremely thin line of hair in the middle. That's why she's kind of resigned doing anything to them for now

Hey yeah, I can see why you say that - although I think it's mainly due to my face being a little distorted from being so close to the cam lol

1. Hmmm, I think the "natural-looking" is due to the fact that I have a very marked crease and thus I can follow the lines of my eyes when doing an outer v. Actually, when I don't do one, my facial bones kinda get in the way, which can look a little odd e.g. when I do a light lid overall...

2. I normally use MAC's #219 or the Chisel Fluff from Essential Beauty Supplies to draw the v (or an even smaller brush when I use a very dark color in the crease for more depth) and then blend it with MAC's #224 or another EBS brush that's like the #219 but slightly rounder and bigger. I usually blend the outer rims of the v with my browbone highlighter.

HTH!
