Stylish brows are a click away

Shapeless, patchy, thin and skimpy or bushy brows all need a little grooming.

Magical Brow Stars set with Benefit's bestsellers.

Those new to brow-styling can check out Benefit's website, where a virtual brow wax allows visitors to take and upload a photo, and then see how well-shaped arches will transform the look.

Imperfect pairs can further get a makeover at Benefit Brow Bars, whose professional waxing service starts with mapping where brows should start, the highest point of the arch, and the end.

The mapping will help determine brow-shaping while slimming the nose and balancing the eyes as well as give the face a nice proportion. Waxing and brow-styling can then be customised for natural, straight, angular, feathered or other looks.

The San Francisco-based brand has been an authority on brows since 1976, and over the years have introduced a variety of brow-styling products.

Defining and highlighting can be easily executed by clicking the new four-in-one Brow Contour Pro, available in five colour schemes to match hair colours and skin tones.

The lighter shade is used to fill in from the start to the arch, and the deeper shade from the arch to the end. The definer then outlines the start to the end below the brows, and the arch to the end above them. Lastly, the highlighter goes beneath the arch while blending outward.

Trending straight brows can easily be created with the brow mapping to outline a linear shape. After waxing away stray hair, cream-gel ka-Brow with angled brush is used to define the line, whose thickness is constant from start to arch, then tapered from arch to end.

Highlighting with 3D Browtones then adds depth and dimension, for a polished look or edgy arches in shades like copper or purple.

Best-sellers, including gel, pencil and powder, have been compiled for limited-edition Magical Brow Stars set, released by Benefit this festive season.
