What is brow soap?

Did you know brow soap is a simple yet excellent way to define your eyebrows?

Soap brows: what is it?

Soap brows simply means defining brows with a soap bar. This method of styling eyebrows involves a spoolie and a bar of soap. For makeup, you can choose glycerin soap but it doesn't deliver such a perfect effect as a beauty product dedicated specificaly for that. This method brow makeup products are replaced with soap, as it defines and sets the hairs, providing impeccable and long-lasting look. Soap  helps to shape your brows in any way you want. Nowadays, it's fashionable to brush all the hairs slightly upward to make your arches appear denser and thicker. Since the soap coats each hair with a transparent film, it optically thickens it. This way, the whole brow styling looks very natural yet bold.

TIP!
If you feel like it, you can boost the soap brows effect by applying a little brow pomade, eyebrow mascara or shadow to the soapy brows. Remember to fill with colour only when the soap has already dried.

Soap for eyebrows - which soap to choose?

  • Traditional, charcoal or glycerin soap

Natural and glycerin soap is a common choice. This type of soap should be moistened with water following application. It needs to be softer and more malleable so that it can be easily applied. If you have dark brows, you should go for charcoal soap. Such soap dries quickly on the hairs and makes them quite stiff, without giving you much time to work on the shape of your eyebrows.

  • Gel soap - no need for wetting

Created specifically for styling brows. Glycerin-gel soap has a nice and smooth consistency, perfect for creating a soap brows. This type of soap does not have to be mixed with water, toner or flower water (hydrosol). It is applied with a spoolie directly from the packaging. The soap is colourless, it does not leave any residue on the eyebrows and doesn't roll. It also doesn't make your skin feel tight. It is very durable and at the same time quite resistant to sweat and moisture. Also, it doesn't feel sticky. It is very easy to apply, as the soap is easy to brush into the brow hairs and it doesn't set immediately, so you have a lot of time to redefine the shape of the eyebrows.

Brow soap - tips. Application and filling

Make sure to apply the soap on previosly cleansed eyebrows. Do not apply it on top of a foundation, brow pencil, eyeshadow or brow pomade. If you do, you will brush out eall brow makeup products while applyingthe  soap, or your make up will look lumpy and will have to be done again from scratch. Also remember that any spf or moisturiser must be fully absorbed before you apply the soap. Only then you can achieve the best and long-lasting results.
