There’s
something about the onset of fall that always makes me slightly
more aware of my brows. I’m not entirely sure what the correlation
between cooler weather, a return to knitwear and leather booties,
and thicker, defined brows is in my mind, but it’s pretty much an
annual inkling. I try to keep my arches as full as possible all
year round (mostly by keeping them out of my tweeze-happy hands and
trusting them to my brow-groomer), but at-home maintenance is
required on occasion, as the grow-out period can leave them in an
unruly awkward stage. Brow kits can confound even the most seasoned
beauty guru, but I was intrigued by the simplicity and pared-down
concept behind Clarins’ new
Pro Palette Eyebrow Kit. It boasts three application tools (a
pair of tweezers, a dual-ended brush, and a wand), a brow powder in
three different shades for filling, a clear wax for hold, a
highlighter, and a handy plastic overlay with illustrated
instructions as to which brush and which product go where. And the
silver compact fits easily into my bag for on-the-go touchups while
riding the subway. (Oh yes, I am that person.)
