A Beauty Tip From Me

Don't pay attention to the lone little hair that's out of place. I tried to edit it, but I'm not savvy enough. You get the picture.

This is the only one you will ever get, because, lets face it, I'm slightly helpless when I comes to all things make-up and beauty. I just basically started wearing tinted moisturizer; and I've only actually worn foundation and powder a total of MAYBE 3 times in my life. However, there is one thing that I'm very adamant about, and this is eyebrows.

Notice how my face looks "neater" when I have well-groomed eyebrows.

I am of the possibly harsh opinion that it is impossible for a woman to look truly pretty unless she has properly groomed eyebrows. I am also fully aware that sometimes, my life gets ahead of me, and my eyebrows are slightly scruffy. As a result, I go through my days, wishing I had a paper bag to cover my head. To me, having shaggy eyebrows is as much of an offense to humanity as not wearing deodorant and not showering for weeks on end. Ok, maybe not, but really, there's no excuse.

When I was in middle school, and my friends started to tweeze their eyebrows, my mom sat me down, and gave me a stern talking to. She said, "Anne, I'm going to take you to get your eyebrows waxed. We are going to continue to do this for the rest of your life, because heaven help me, you're a pretty girl and I don't want you to ruin this by over-tweezing." Thus, a relationship was formed. The only time in my life that I've ever let tweezers within 30 feet of my face was in Russia when I had no other choice. Getting your eyebrows done will not break the bank. I go to a school in town, and it costs me $8. The girl who did it yesterday was so good that I almost kissed her on the mouth. I hope she never graduates and she can do my eyebrows for the rest of my life. I only need to get them done about every other month, although sometimes I forget, and it goes a little longer than that. It doesn't hurt, but since I'm so fair, I'm really red for a few hours. Ain't no thang. It's worth it for the exchange that I can reach my full beauty potential later. :)

So ladies, there's no reason to have shaggy eyebrows. Do yourself a favor, and go get them done. Don't go too thin, but ask for a nice shape. You'll be happy you did.
