How to cover brows?

[Amaranth]

You can get Spirit Gum off with rubbing alcohol too. It does have its own special remover, but I got mine for like $1 when I bought the gum. I guess you could try it without the gum, but some types of foundation may not work well over something so waxy. Also, I could see the wax starting to peel off a little if you got really sweating or were wearing it a long time. But I haven't tried it with just the wax, so if you try it, let me know how it goes!

Far better than sealing with spirit gum is using something like Lashfix eyelash glue or liquid latex (Note: potential for latex allergy).

Use a sponge to stipple the latex onto the wax. Once it's dry, press translucent powder with another fine textured sponge into it to give it a skin like texture. It will then be easy to cover completely with a highly pigmented foundation like Full Coverage.
