Clean Up the Edges
To keep the overall effect polished and refined, dip a small concealer brush into a bit of foundation and carefully trace around the brow. A clean and crisp line makes the brow pop and look clean and groomed, notes Henao.

Kendall Jenner's Fantasy Brow
The most dramatic of these three looks, this involves noticeably changing Jenner's brows: "I ignore her natural shape and go much fuller," says Henao, making this a good option if you too want to fake fuller arches. The trick to creating thicker-looking eyebrows that don't look ridiculous? "Focus on making the brow fuller on top, rather than on the bottom," advises Henao. "This opens up the eye area. Adding thickness on the bottom can make your eyes look smaller, and no one wants that," he adds.

Draw Outside the Lines
Like the red carpet brow, a pencil-powder combo is best for this. Starting with the pencil, gently outline your new, fuller shape, drawing only about a millimeter above the top edge of your brow. Then, fill in the shape with a brow powder. Unlike the red carpet brow, don't worry about clean edges. "Keeping the lines diffuse and a little blurry makes the brow look natural, and not drawn-on or cartoonish," Henao explains.

For Believable Brows, Work Backward
Another way to ensure the end result is believable? Start the pencil-powder process at the end of your brow, moving towards the center of your face. "The tail always tends to be thinner, so by concentrating the color and thickness here, you get a better sense as to how thick you can go at the beginning," Henao explains. "If you start at the beginning, it's easy to accidentally make your inner brow appear way too thick."
