Your Most-Asked Brow Questions Answered: How to Get Natural, Balanced Brows Step-by-Step

From how high to scroll your pencil to which comes first — pencil or pommade — this video covers all the biggest questions about achieving soft, natural-looking, balanced brows using the right products and techniques.

In this detailed tutorial, learn exactly how to apply the Relume Cosmetics Full On Pencil, Everyday Lift Pommade, and Bright Eyes Highlighter for realistic, hairlike strokes that won’t smudge or fade throughout the day. Whether your brows are freshly tinted, naturally sparse, or uneven, these tips will help you enhance your shape while keeping the look soft and effortless — never harsh or overdone.

 What you’ll learn:

 • How high to scroll your pencil without breakage (and why less is more).

 • The difference between brown black vs. black pencil shades and when to use each — especially after tinting.

 • How to map where your brows should start and end, based on your unique facial structure.

 • Why skin prep is crucial (including the importance of micellar water on the brows before applying product).

 • The correct technique for creating hairlike brow strokes: intentional placement, quick flicks, and proper spacing to let the skin show through (just like real brow hairs).

 • How to softly outline your brows for shape without heavy lines — and when outlining might actually pull your brows downward.

 • Common mistakes to avoid, like over-blending with a spoolie brush (and how to tap out harshness the right way).

 • The order of operations: when to apply pencil, pomade, and highlighter for the best result.

 • How to use pomade like a brow combover to fill sparse areas without adding bulk or stiffness.

 • The subtle role Botox can play in correcting brow symmetry — and why less is often more.

 • Why conscious, intentional technique (not speed) is the secret to brows that look natural, full, and balanced.

This is your go-to guide for troubleshooting and perfecting your brow routine — whether you’re a beginner or just looking to refine your technique.
