Brow Mapping Made Simple: Find Your Most Flattering Shape

Perfect brows aren’t about trends, they’re about balance. Your best brows follow your natural bone structure, enhancing your face rather than competing with it.

These three steps will help you better understand how to shape and maintain brows that feel intentional and effortless.

1. Find Your Frame

Use your face to guide your shape, not Instagram.
Everyone’s brow start, arch, and tail are a little different. And that’s the beauty of it.

What to measure:

• Brow Start: Line up from the corner of your nose to the inner eye.

• Arch: Angle from nose through the center of your iris.

• Tail: Extend from nose to outer corner of your eye.

Tip: Use a pencil or brow tool to check alignment. Subtle adjustments make a big difference.

2. Sculpt With Intention

Less tweezing, more structure.
Over-plucking creates patchiness and imbalance.

What to focus on:

• Clean up only stray hairs that fall outside your mapped shape.

• Avoid removing too much from above the brow.

• Trim long hairs with precision scissors, not clippers.

Product note: Glo Skin Beauty’s Precision Brow Pencil gives control without harsh lines.

3. Fill for Balance, Not Drama

Define, soften, and lift, all with the right tool.
Filling your brows doesn’t mean coloring them in. It means restoring symmetry and light structure.

How to enhance:

• Use light, hair-like strokes in sparse areas.

• Soften with a spoolie to blend.

• Highlight the brow bone for a subtle lift.

Try this: Use Glo’s Brow Gel to finish and hold. Available in tinted or clear.

Putting It All Together

Brow care is about enhancing what you already have, not transforming it into someone else’s.
