#BROWTOBER is BACK!

October 4, 2019

#Browtober is back for the second year in a row and we are back with a bang! Not only am I removing my eyebrows, but two other MUA’s have decided to remove their eyebrows too, and dedicating the month to creating tutorials online to help others who may be struggling to create realistic looking eyebrows.

Why remove my eyebrows?

Eyebrows could possibly be the most important feature on our face, they help us express ourselves, they add structure to our appearance as well as protecting our eyes from dirt and dust. Now imagine yourself without eyebrows. Your expressions have halved, your appearance has completely changed and more than likely your confidence has been knocked. I want to help people who are going through any form of hair loss, to help give them back their expressions, their confidence and I want to use my makeup artistry skills to show how to create realistic looking eyebrows. Last year when I thought of the #Browtober concept, I realized there wasn’t enough content online specifically for eyebrows and that’s what I want to change. I want people to know that the support is there, and this year having more and more people dedicating their eyebrows to #Browtober shows that more people want to help. I am always online to get back to your burning questions, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need anything.

This year I have created a #Browtober Instagram account to keep all hair loss support together in one place, all the contributions of others for #Browtober and all the other creators online creating amazing content that may not be getting the exposure they should be getting. I will be working on this page all year long, not just for the month of October.

#browtober – supporting people with hairloss ❤️ on this page we will be sharing everything we can find to support those suffering from any form of hair loss. Browtober was started by @anythingbutmarzipan in 2018. After volunteering with @lookgoodfeelbetterireland LJ realized that there was a huge lack of eyebrow hair loss support and tutorials for people who have lost their brow hairs. LJ decided to dedicate the month of October to BROWS and removed her own to support others and to use her makeup artistry skills to provide realistic eyebrow tutorials for those who need them, as well as raising much needed funds for charity Look Good Feel Better 💜 we hope you enjoy the content provided on this page, please feel free to DM us if you have any questions or request 💚 #hairloss #hairlosshelp #nobrows #nohair #support #lgfb #lookgoodfeelbetter

As I have recently relocated to Amsterdam, I’m focusing on giveaways to help encourage donations to #Browtober there are lots of prizes being donated so you will want to keep an eye on my social media to see what is on offer (thousands of euro worth of prizes!).

If you’re interested in supporting the cause, all funds raised will be donated to Look Good Feel Better, a Charity I have personally volunteered with and have seen first hand how it helps the confidence of people going through chemo therapy.

#BROWTOBER It’s ok to make mistakes when you have concealer 😅 I flaked on the first product waaaayyy too messy but it’s easy fix it.. no need to be too careful with the first step! Take note of these @sigmabeauty angle brushes, you’ll be seeing them ALOT throughout the month, especially the E06 for the brow hairs, see how sharp that brush is 😍🙌 Products used: @anastasiabeverlyhills DipBrow in Taupe (for brow shape & full) & Medium Brown (for brow hairs) @inglot_cosmetics Duraline (essential!) to make products more liquid and creamy @plouise_makeup_academy Rumour Base and flat brush to clean up the edges. Powder the brow area before, and powder the brows when they are complete for them to last all day 🙌😋 Earrings @el_estel_official & @maria_tash Nails @demikijser 💅 Music: Moscow Rain Site: https://icons8.com/music/ comment below if you want details of anything else 😘 #richglamakeup #beautyfordays_xo #hypnaughtymakeup #muasfam #hudabeauty #wamfam #makeupclips #discovervideos #undiscovered_muas #makeuptut @browtober #browtutorial #abhbrows #nobrows #creatorsie
