Overplucked, sparse, barely-there colour; the path to perfect brows is plagued with obstacles. But now there’s a new, (nearly) painless way to get immaculate brows that Deepika Padukone herself would kill for. Brow mapping (using precise measurements to determine the best unique shape for you) paired with semi- permanent makeup is fast becoming the bridal beauty must-have before the Big Day. Practitioner Lucie Overson says: “I know that brides are busy people who simply don’t have time to fill in and shape their brows every day. This treatment frees you from maintenance monotony and gives you perfect brows for the Big Day, and beyond.”STEP 1 Personal consultation The first stage is skin and a facial assessment, which is vital as it determines which pigment and method will work best on which skin. For example, hairstrokes with shading is great perfect for those with lightly coloured, sparse brows.STEP 2 Brow Mapping begins It’s time to get your face mapped! To get a shape that enhances your looks, Lucie will take precise measurements from the nose to inner brows, the corner of nostril to outer eye and the nostril through the centre of the pupil to pinpoint your arch.STEP 3 Time to create your new brows A topical numbing cream is applied to ease any pain (which is similar to threading) before a fine needle filled with organic pigment is used to fill your brows. In all, it takes 90-120min to complete, depending on your brow type and the desired effect.STEP 4 Aftercare and advice As it takes approx one month to see the final result, brides who want this treatment are advised to book in 3 months ahead of the Big Day. Since it’s semi- permanent, the pigment will fade naturally if you choose to opt-out of a colour reboost.
