Valencia’s Expert Tips for Flawless Brows
- Shape Like a Pro
Brow shaping can be tricky, but don’t worry—Valencia’s got your back with these easy fixes for common brow mishaps:
- Over-plucking: Stop obsessing over symmetry! Over-plucked brows can look sparse and uneven.
- Fix: Step back every so often to check your progress, and follow your natural brow shape for that full, soft look.
- Brows too far apart? Oops! Removing too much hair at the start can make you look, well, off-balance.
- Fix: Use a straight edge from the side of your nose to the inner brow for the perfect starting point.
- Arch disaster: A misplaced arch can make you look constantly surprised. Yikes!
- Fix: Align your arch with the outer edge of your iris for a natural lift.
- Skipping regular maintenance: Letting them grow wild? Not cute.
- Fix: Keep up with regular touch-ups, but don’t go overboard!
- Relying too much on the pros: Sure, a brow specialist is fab, but communication is key.
- Fix: Bring inspo pics and be super clear about your brow dreams.
Remember, brows should be balanced—not identical. They’re sisters, not twins!
Valencia swears by the “Golden Ratio” technique for brow perfection:
- Start: Line up a brush along the side of your nose. Where it hits your brow is your starting point.
- Arch: Angle it through the center of your pupil—this is where the magic arch happens!
- End: Finally, angle the brush from your nose to the outer corner of your eye. That’s where your brow should end. Easy!

2. Fill Like a Brow Boss
When it comes to filling in brows, it’s all about finesse, babe! Valencia’s go-to move for natural, stunning brows is the “feathered stroke” technique. Here’s how you can master it:
- Groom those beauties: Brush your brows up with a spoolie to reveal their natural shape.
- Shade game: Go for a pencil or pen that matches your brow color or one shade lighter for a softer look. Too dark? Too harsh!
- Outline like a pro: Lightly trace the bottom edge from start to tail for structure but keep it soft!
- Feather, don’t force: Use light, quick strokes that mimic real brow hairs, starting in the middle and working your way to the tail. Feather the front for a natural vibe.
- Blend, baby: Run a spoolie through to blend those strokes to perfection.
- Set it and forget it: Lock in your look with a clear or tinted brow gel for all-day fierceness.
Valencia’s fave product for this? The iconic Benefit Cosmetics ‘Precisely My Brow Pencil’. It’s perfect for creating those hair-like strokes that last all day. She’s obsessed with Benefit’s whole brow line, TBH!
3. Lock ‘Em in Place
You’ve shaped, you’ve filled—now keep those brows on lockdown! Valencia’s secret to 24-hour perfection? A waterproof brow gel or clear soap. Her holy grail? Benefit Cosmetics 24HR Brow Setter and, of course, her go-to Precisely My Brow Pencil. These babies will keep your brows on fleek from brunch to bedtime.
