3 popular in-salon eyebrow treatments explained

Benefit Cosmetics' newest brow service promises fuller-looking arches in under 60 minutes. It starts with a Brow Mapping service by the brand's brow expert, who brushes your brow hair upwards to create a smooth and defined look. The results can last up to six weeks.

Post treatment, you can simply use a clean spookier to shape your brows. To extend and amplify the treatment results, Sidney Kok, Benefit Cosmetics National Brow and Beauty Authority, recommends pairing it with Benefit Cosmetics’ fan-favourite 24-Hour Brow Setter.

It’s best to keep the brows away from water for 24 hours after the treatment to prevent the lamination solution from being washed away. Sidney suggests applying Benefit Cosmetics Hubba Brow Serum to “rehydrate your brows with coconut and jojoba oils.”

Browhaus’ updated Browgraphy treatment combines brow shaping with colour tweaking. The therapist begins by threading your brows to rid unwanted hair speedily before tweezing them to define and shape your arches. This is followed by colour tweaking to lighten or darken your brows to match your hair and skin tone.

If you have sparse and unbalanced looking brows, consider Browhaus’ Brow Resurrection. This semi-permanent eyebrow embroidery uses fine, one-time usage multi-pins to craft out natural, 3D-looking strands.

The two latest offerings under Brow Resurrection include Ombre and Blend. The former uses feathery strokes to fill up and shape the brows, giving them a gradient finish. The latter uses precisely-placed points and dots to create a diffused, powdered look.

It’s important to avoid facials and swimming for the first two weeks after your treatment. As the treatment area may peel or form scabs after the treatment, you should also refrain from applying skincare and makeup until it’s fully healed.
