Give them a tint
"Not everyone is blessed with thick and naturally fabulous eyebrows," says Shavata. "Tinting them a shade or two darker creates an impact, without overpowering the rest of your features."
If you’re not quite ready to take the plunge, give them instant definition with a soft brow pencil. Just keep the strokes light, as overly drawn-on brows can look harsh.
Keep the thickness
Full eyebrows can give the face a more youthful appearance. If your brows are fairly sparse, nourish them back to thickness. Shavata recommends using castor oil.
