SHAPE SHIFTER: To keep unruly brows in shape, use a sharp pair of tweezers and always pluck in the direction of hair growth to avoid getting any ingrown hairs.
For the most natural shape, the start of your brow should align with the bridge of your nose.

The arch should hit the edge of your iris, and the tail should end at a 45-degree angle from your nose.
A well-placed tweeze costs nothing but can transform your face.

DYE IT YOURSELF: A brow tint will often set you back around £50 at a salon, but you can do it yourself at home for less than a tenner.
The Kiss Brow Tint Kit is on currently offer at lookfantastic.com for £7.19, and it comes with everything you need for tinted brows in just five minutes.
The colour lasts up to six weeks, so it means you can cancel any future brow appointments, too.
TAME THE MANE: If you have thick hair, a specialist brow tool could be the answer to getting the perfect arch.
You don’t need to splash out on expensive versions — get a GoodMax Eyebrow Razor to get rid of stray hairs.
A pack of three is just £3.99 at Amazon.co.uk.
WAX WONDER: Do you prefer waxing to threading? If so, you can do it at home with special face waxing strips.
Try Boots’ smooth care sensitive wax strips, enriched with almond oil and vitamin E.
Simply peel off, apply and use the finishing wipes included to get rid of any remaining wax.
A pack of 20 strips was £4, but is now £3.20.
GROW GETTER: If you’re suffering from over-plucked brows, try one of the new budget eyebrow serums, like the Revolution Peptide Strength Lash And Brow Serum, £9.99 at Superdrug.
Use the wand to apply to clean skin and brows before bed to boost the length and volume of brows in just eight weeks — according to their consumer testing.
