ASOSERS TRY CT'S SUPERMODEL BROWS

If your brows haven't seen much love over lockdown (hard relate), makeup pro Charlotte Tilbury is here to take them from zero to 100, with two new additions to the Supermodel Brows fam: Brow Cheat and Brow Fix. Three ASOSers tried and tested CT's brow collection for fluffy flicks, mapped-out arches and all-round supermodel status. See how they got on, and brush up on your techniques with our step-by-step cheat sheet below. Spoiler: the hype is real. 

'Personally, I like my brows to be full but still natural-looking, so I’m really pleased with how they turned out here. To achieve this look, I used a combination of Charlotte Tilbury’s Brow Lift and Legendary Brows (both in black/brown) and finished them off with Brow Fix.

Surprisingly, it was all pretty easy and only took me 5 minutes. First, I used the brush end of my Brow Lift pencil to reveal any sparse areas (yep, I may have over-waxed and plucked during lockdown. Oops!). Then, I filled them out with the crayon-like pencil on the other end. At this point, the girls were looking a little too harsh, so I feathered them out for more of a natural look with my Legendary Brows. So much power in that tiny spoolie! Lastly, I glossed verrry lightly over both brows with Brow Fix. And voila!'

'My brows and I have come a long way together. Believe me when I say, I’ve tried every brow product out there to try and find the holy grail... Then I met Charlotte Tilbury’s game-changing Supermodel Brow collection. Brow Lift is like a pomade-in-a-pencil. I like to use it as the first step, working colour through my brows to build the base for my desired shape, before going in with Brow Cheat. I have some sparse areas throughout my brows, and the ultra-fine tip is ideal for creating precise, hair-like strokes for a natural, feathered look.

Legendary Brows is possibly my fave from the line-up – the pigmented brow gel coats every hair to give the most full, fluffy-looking brows with an added depth of colour. Wear it on its own for a low-key makeup vibe or with the other products for brows full of BNO energy. And – top tip – apply it with a light touch to make sure you’re coating just the hairs and not the skin beneath. Finally, Brow Fix is a pocket-sized hero as the lightweight formula manages to tame unruly hairs with wear-all-day staying power minus that stiff, sticky feeling.'

'As a bit of a brow novice, it wasn’t until I tried Charlotte Tilbury’s Supermodel Brow collection that I realised how simple it is to re-create catwalk-worthy brows in a matter of minutes. In the past, I’ve only ever used pencils on my brows, and I love that Charlotte Tilbury offers two types: the Brow Lift, which has a thicker nib to eliminate any patches with a few light strokes, and the new Brow Cheat with a finer tip to easily re-create precise hairs.

The game-changer for me was the Legendary Brows. Like mascara for your eyebrows, it defines each hair and gives that feathered effect which is everywhere right now! Since my first use, I’ve never looked back – it’s now a staple for me. Finally, a quick once-over with the Brow Fix helps keep my brows on point all day, even after a home-workout and my daily walk!'

 

Step 1: Brush 
Brush your brows in upward strokes to reveal your natural brow shape.

Step 2: Map 

Use Brow Lift or the new Brow Cheat as your ruler to map out the shape of your brows, marking as you go. To do this, rest the pencil on your nostril, not the outer edge of the nose: this is where your brow should begin. Angle the pencil across the eye and through the pupil: this is where your arch should start. Then angle across from the end of your eye, which is where your brow should end.

Step 3: Brow type
If you have: thin or sparse brows
Use Brow Lift to define the shape of the brow, and Brow Cheat to fill in sparse areas. Feather and add fullness using the OG Legendary Brows.

If you have: thick or unruly brows
Create shape and structure with Brow Cheat to define full brows, using the pencil on the arch of the brows to give them a lift. Set your brows with Brow Fix.

If you have: faded brows or lacking shape
Use Brow Lift to fill in and to create and define the shape of the brow. Add texture and colour by feathering using the Legendary Brows and don’t forget to set with Brow Fix!

If you have: full brows
Add natural shape, texture and colour with Legendary Brows and gently comb through the hair before setting with Brow Fix.
