The Duchess and Her Strong Brow


I just saw the movie "The Duchess", based on the Duchess of Devonshire Georgiana Spencer (AKA "G").  She was strong-willed, sophisticated, funny, smart and a true trendsetter.   Not only am I obsessed with G's story, I am once again obsessed with Keira Knightley.  She is wonderful to watch on-screen, those brows are amazing and her skin is luminous.  I love her in period films!  
To get gorgeous brows like Keira's, don't overpluck.  I repeat - don't OVERPLUCK!!  If you have already done this, try to let the brows grow in and then get them shaped by a professional.  To add a bit of color to sparse brows, fill in with powder shadow and a stiff-bristled brow brush.  Groom brows with a bit of clear brow gel so they stay all day.  Groomed brows really open up the eye and give you a more polished look, even when you're not wearing any makeup.
