Do you consider skin undertone in picking a brow shade? How about face shape?

[@krishnajean-louis5075]

Thank you so much! Can you do a video for hooded eyeliner. My eyeliner always get on my eyelids and you can't see the one I did. It looks like a black eye shadow.

[@sadhsingh]

I LOVE when Nikki is on the show. I always learn so much, and she is really knowledgeable 👌🏽💗

[@lexijones8019]

Agree. The only time I want to watch the channel.

[@santiagosuarez8142]

The video was awesome, could you please also talk about recommended brown shapes depending on the face shape? Like brows for rounded or oval or square faces?

[@yolandashaw370]

It won’t let me keep hitting the light button over and over and over again. Love these series of videos with you and Nikki! I’m soaking up her gems of wisdom!

[@ArcherMillerFilmBoeuf]

I had a lot of people in college dropping subtle hints: “You might like getting your eyebrows done.” I finally got it, and I never looked back. Nikki is probably giving me some hints through this video right now, and I’m grateful.

[@smartypantspod]

I just recently started filling in my brows more and it definitely makes a difference, especially on camera for my videos!! I always use a shade lighter than my hair color and I think it looks the most natural. Thanks for a great video!!

[@elliottvic]

Nikki is so talented. Love watching and listening to her. Thanks, Susan!

[@erinwilson-taylor4260]

Susan, your hair colour looks so vibrant - please do a hair (care) video!

[@Nini-tj6se]

I love Nikki! She has such good advice and she’s beautiful

[@melodywalker3805]

I love you two! Y’all always have great advice and tricks!😍

[@maipham4766]

Absolutely agree ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@cleopatra72]

I never knew how lucky I was to have great brows, I couldn’t do all this. I get then shaped and do nothing ..I get compliments on my brows all the time . When I get my brows done their like omg your so lucky!

[@justine313]

I needed these makeup videos so bad. I am 35 and just wanted to revamp my makeup stills ❤️

[@beckyschuler4992]

Hi Susan! I love your "mistakes" videos and am so happy you did one on brows. I'm over 60 and have sparse brows and hooded eyes. I'm always afraid to do too much to my brows, so this video was very helpful...now off to practice!

[@rachelrosendo]

Wow thank you for sharing that life-changing tip of setting your brows with powder, Nikki! 👍🏼 I always enjoy and learn a lot when you two collab on here! 💕

[@tristagreen]

Loving Susan's hair here!

[@susanmartin5226]

I use mascara brush as spoolie

[@kellyholman]

Thank you for including us redheads!

[@jenniferlee5116]

Great tips! Thank you

[@AWhite-wo9pz]

Are these tips applicable for men as well?

[@Makeupbynikkilarose]

Of course!

[@jo8726t]

I really needed this video. Thanks for the tips!

[@lisabeautyinsideout]

Wow!! This was very helpful. Learned great tips

[@irmariecervera9548]

Setting my brows... never occurred to me!

[@cherinorris9286]

Wow, I really appreciate y’all videos, it must be really hard to have to say the perfect words so you don’t have haters, doing a great job, thank you both! I love Nikki! Live you both, thanks for all your advice to be a better knowledgeable me. I use some of Susan products!👍❤️

[@Heather.0508]

I have dark hair and black eyebrow hairs, and I've always had bushy full brows. I'm also pale af but I'm worried my brows always look too full on now 🥴🙈 I've tried other brow colours but it's so obvious it's just baaaaad. Any tips or advice on products to try to achieve a natural look with such naturally dark brows?

[@helensolomon4420]

Thank you for all you do ❤️

[@noellecarr8889]

I am a beginner to brows that doesn't like to do a lot to them. I have space brows.I use the benefit gimme brow. What other product would you recommend?

[@dcdawn]

What colours could I use now that my hair is salt and pepper? My natural colour was a dark brunette with a red highlight. Thank you!!!

[@rachmaninovwasemo2313]

But what if my eyebrows are naturally very dark, coarse and dense 😧 I couldn't even fill them in if I tried because they are too dense. So if I did a little around the outside (for shape) with a lighter color it would look very odd. I can't put it through my whole brow.

[@baddiesinbowties6358]

i love clear brow gel for my black thick brows!

[@Gii7077]

Then you don't really need it, i think! A clear gel to set (or brush up if you want that 'fluffy' look) is all you need!

[@2727lia]

I'm the same. I use clear brow gel that's it!

[@selyemperzsa1]

I really dont see the shape... that would be great to understand how to make "that" shape happen. Thank you.

[@mariaines7443]

Well, it's all fun and games until you already have light/fair skin with thick black natural eyebrows... What do I do then?

[@magicallymeagan9909]

Lighter hand. Use 1-2 shades lighter. Mannymua is fair with black eyebrows and his brow game is amazing!

[@mariaines7443]

@@magicallymeagan9909 thank you! I'll go watch his videos for some tips 😊

[@mariaines7443]

@@frankly9432 thanks for the tip! 😊 I'll have to try clear gel, not so sure about dying them 😅

[@ambervarner1634]

I have dark brown almost black brows and I am pale. I use blonde or light brown (cool toned) brow products. They show up darker than you would expect without making the brows looking filled in with sharpies. I usually use pomade or tinted brow gel. You could also just use an eyeshadow and use it as a brow powder.

[@mariaines7443]

@@ambervarner1634 oh thanks for the tips! I'll have to try them 😊

[@angelina9228]

You look different!

[@klairblair]

I’m shocked that u didn’t address brown skinned people in selecting a brow shade. I can’t imagine that going lighter on my brow color would be appropriate.

[@Makeupbynikkilarose]

Hi Kim, these suggestions were only based on Hair color, not skin tone. Either way, I still would suggest trying a shade lighter regardless❤️

[@baddiesinbowties6358]

I agree it's very ignorant. I have black brows, using a lighter shade will do nothing to change that. And why would i want to? I love my dark features and there's nothing wrong with that.

[@klairblair]

@@Makeupbynikkilarose obviously. I was pointing out that there are other factors that should be addressed in a video for a large audience.

[@klairblair]

Mixedmakeup usually addresses multicultural audience. I’m just pointing out that there was a missed opportunity

[@crystal9823]

What if you don’t know what type of brows you have? I need lessons!!! 😭

[@bashag5477]

I used clear setting gel for the first time, and it looks very bad! And weird. I don't think greasy laminated eyebrows look good or natural in any universe. They almost look like car stickers stuck to my face. It reminds me of someone slicking back their whole head of hair with gel. Yuck. We gotta bring natural, dry, airy eyebrows back. I'm down for a tiny bit of pencil or eye shadow if done really conservatively... That's just me.

[@tamarakieper5029]

How sad you skipped over us silver haired ladies. I've never seen a gray pencil, now what? Thank you!

[@dric7699]

What changed in Susan's face?? Is it her nose or her brows or smth

[@milagrosgaytan-campos2938]

Maybe botox?

[@carolinaluna2453]

Please tell us what you did to your nose, looks nice but diferent🥰

[@marthadiazsantella3709]

Nikky ls giving me Millie Bobbie Brown vives !! So beautiful 🧡

[@CasaDeWooo]

I can’t believe I haven’t been setting my brows all this time!!!! 🤯 Thank you! Also though…I’m shocked y’all skipped right over brow pens!!! I could not live without my brow pens now! Haha! I use a pencil to fill in my brows and then I go in with a thin felt tipped pen to make realistic brow hairs in the front and throughout. My favorites are the NYX Lift & Snatch Brow Pen and the Urban Decay Brow Blade (which has an amazing pencil on one end and a perfectly thin pointed pen on the other). I love them both but I couldn’t live without my Urban Decay Brow Blade in Taupe Trap (although I like the Cool Cookie shade too when my hair is darker). The NYX is cheaper BUT it’s only the pen while the Urban Decay is a pen and a pencil. Plus it’s on sale right now actually on the Urban Decay website! (I just stocked up 😂)

[@vandhana_babu]

Filling my Brows was a game changer! I can just fill them in and be done with my makeup lmao 😭😆. It just makes your face structured and not flat 🥰. I use brown pencil that makes it looks good and natural. And use a cleat mascara to make them stand in place so it looks abit fluffy and fool . It took me a year or so to figure out these . Black ones don't really work for me and looks horrendous 🥲😂 .

[@bunny0608]

✍🏽✍🏽 they're sisters, not twins....hell mine end up being long lost cousins

[@AnnaFryxell]

These are such good tips! I used to never do anything on my eyebrows, but it made such a difference once I started!

[@linajurgensen4698]

3:40 yes! I always stand close to the mirror for the details and take steps back in between. :) 15:40 I also didn’t know this.

[@haleymcqueen]

Please keep doing these videos with Nikki! These are so helpful ❤️

[@Cezsmile]

Thank you!

[@_paulacr]

I was not able to stop looking into Nikki eye liner and think: I really need a video with her teaching about eye liner , yesterday i struggled so much and now I see this amazing eye liner ❤️❤️❤️

[@junleifa]

I love the Hard Formula H9 brow pencil from Shu Uemura.

[@LoveSheeeeena]

La girl brow bestie. The best

[@gordanaplackoska1961]

Excellent video. My problem is that I have naturally round brows, I do not have arch (not even trace). Any suggestions.

[@laurab5293]

What do you do to shape them? I have long and I don’t know how to make them look good. I hear a lot about color well mine are very blonde. , Should I cut them and how ?? Please help me with mine. Thank you so much I learned a lot from you too 🙋‍♀️🥰

[@zoe-nicole2700]

I was only saying to my friend yesterday I need a make up lesson in eyebrows as I’m horrendous, so this is perfect ❤️

[@sunlightwomen]

i love your vidos together.!!! my mistake in the 90s was that i let my thick eyebrows overplocked everytime because thin eyesbrows were in the 90s very popular time. Thin eyebrows dont suit me. i have hooded eyes and my natural nation isnt for thin eyebrows , i would never do that again !! Today there are some gaps between my hairs by the constant tugging. but that s life

[@GiraffeLife16]

love this!

[@michellemercado7410]

I love this! I Always set my brows!

[@trevor_corey8037]

Soooo what do you do when your eyebrows are so thick and dark and literally-nothing to fill in.. Ugh my brows are black and now I’m self conscious becuae they totally are there first thing people notice about me 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@Maidenhair]

What color should your brow products be if you have salt and pepper hair?

[@brendaramos538]

What if your eyebrow hair is black?! And you are also a brunette.

[@velvetsteil7449]

Hi Nikki La Rose! Regarding where you want your brows to start, should it start from the side of your nose or the outside of each nostril? I replayed the video; however, it is hard to determine the starting point, due to the angle of the camera. Love to have others feedback, as well.

[@an1sssa]

I think it’s generally the outer part of the tip of your nose if that makes sense, if you started at the outside of each nostril they may be too far apart depending on the person! :)

[@WaitingForTheSubway]

Interesting- the arch estimation does NOT work for my eyes haha. That’s just not where they arch. They come up almost in the center, right over the iris. Anyone else?

[@bbkix]

Aw not doing anything isn't a mistake. I finally learned to embrace a bare face in my mid 30s! I genuinely thought I looked bad with my untouched natural face so I forced myself to stop wearing makeup to unpack those feelings. it makes me sad that so many girls and women have internalized these societal messages. But I do love all the tips shared for when I want to do a little extra and change it up! Thank you!

[@cherylmoestadja]

Agreed. Doing nothing isn't a mistake. And a lot of girls and women look for advice on this channel so they should be considerate of putting out a message like that. But then again everything is subjective in this video.

[@Makeupbynikkilarose]

Absolutely right, makeup is subjective always!

[@thebeauty_minimalist]

Your brows shouldn’t be the first thing people notice, unless your brow game is Emily in Paris level 😉 great video and love to have Nikki back on the channel 💜

[@Legobrickfuncousin]

This was great! Love Nikki!

[@christinaobert5664]

Lobe these types of videos! A real tutorial would of topped it off even more. Brows are hard but I can do them decently enough to leave my house, winged eyeliner of any sort though... can't do it to save my life.

[@Lizzy43645]

Thank you addressing red head colors! I was panicking I was going too dark (which I probably am) but it’s probably not as bad!

[@madalenacalleja1199]

I knew a friend had black eyebrows and black hair . She was stunning I think has lot to do with your features . I’m lucky I don’t need to use pencil brow 😅as I have thick eyebrows I guess I’m lucky in that zone 😊

[@misspearls3]

Not sure if you mentioned it… but what would your recommend for someone who has ombré powder brows done? After applying makeup? TIA

[@sabrinajedlowski4280]

I use the brow pencil from Benefit and I find that the product is not sticking to my brows following application of my skincare. Any tips or tricks? Should I avoid this area with my skincare?

[@angijac18]

My eyebrows are naturally super huge and Messy and I try to make the shape neater with a pencil. They stand out regardless, it is what it is, I love them

Do you set the brows with powder before or after using a brow gel? So when I've used an eyebrow pencil, do I set them with a powder first then go in with a brow gel?

[@JenDoe1]

You’d use the powder after the gel. :)

[@erinmartinez8360]

You had me at dying brows! I’ve always wanted to try it. Any products suggestions i have dark brown almost black hair and super fine brow hairs.

[@Laura-qo7do]

I’ve been using just for men beard dye and just use an old spoolie and I use dark brown and leave it on (only the hair not skin) for like 5 minutes and it’s usually good. It’s not permanent so it won’t last forever but I find it nice to get the hairs that are lighter and hard to see!
