Use small, hair-like strokes as you fill in your brows. Use a spoolie to brush your brow hairs upwards in order to see every spot that needs to be filled in. For hooded eyes, it’s very important to avoid dragging the tail of the eyebrow downwards. Pay special attention to make sure the tail ends parallel with the outer corner of your eye. Make sure it doesn’t extend past that or swoop downwards dramatically, because this will make your hooded eye seem droopy.
Use a straight brush to blend the liner. The goal with this step is to soften out the line, helping it blend into your shadow. Make sure to use a smudge-proof eyeliner.
A shimmery brown, bronze, gold or silver will work well for this step.
