Welcome to How to Be a Redhead 
Like our How To Wear series, we’re working on a new How Redheads Can Rock makeup series. We discuss trends, unique makeup, and stereotypes that redheads face. This time, we’re talking about rocking your natural redhead brows.
All redheads are different, but most have darker brows than our hair. Having light brow hairs can lead to your brows looking “invisible.” We love using brow makeup like Finally Have Brows® Tinted Brow Gels to add shape and color and Finally Have Brows® Ultra-fine Brow Pencil to fill in sparse areas, but we also know that some redhead want to rock their brows without any added color. So how can you do that and feel confident?
We’ve got some tips:
1. Wear Clear Brow Gel
The best way to rock your natural brows and still have them look on point is with a clear brow gel. This allows you to shape and tame your brows into the perfect spot. Finally Have Brows® Clear Brow Gel will make your brows look stunning all day. It’s also ideal for redheads who have darker brows and don’t need any extra color.
Finally Have Brows Clear Brow Gel
Redheads can use Finally Have Brows Clear Brow Gel to enhance their natural brows effectively by following these tips:
- Define and Shape: Use a brow pencil or powder that matches your eyebrow color to define and shape your brows lightly. This helps create a base and fill in any sparse areas without overpowering your natural red tones.
- Brush Upward: Before applying Clear Brow Gel, brush your eyebrow hairs upward with a spoolie brush. This helps in giving your brows a fuller appearance and creates a natural lift.
- Apply Clear Brow Gel: Use the Clear Brow Gel to set your eyebrows in place. Start from the inner corners and brush outward toward hair growth. Ensure that each hair is coated evenly to maintain a natural yet polished look.
- Avoid Over-Application: Redheads often have lighter eyebrow hair, so be cautious not to apply too much product. A light application of Clear Brow Gel is usually sufficient to hold the brows in place without making them look stiff or unnatural.
- Blend Well: After applying the gel, use the spoolie brush again to blend and soften any excess product gently. This ensures your brows look groomed but maintain their natural texture and color.
- Keep it Natural: The goal is to enhance your natural eyebrow shape and color rather than completely altering them. Clear Brow Gel helps define and keep your brows neat while letting your redhead beauty shine through.
By following these steps, redheads can effectively use Clear Brow Gel to enhance their brows, ensuring they look polished and natural without overpowering their unique features.
2. Keep brows trimmed and shaped
Keeping your brows trimmed and shaped will help them stand out more on your face. When you have light brows, it’s easy for them to blend into your skin and to rock a natural disappearance. Having a nice edge will enhance the brow’s shape and frame your face. This involves regular maintenance and the right tools. Aim to trim your brows every 4-6 weeks using eyebrow scissors and a spoolie brush to comb hairs upward for easier trimming. When trimming, be conservative, cutting only the tips of stray hairs to maintain a natural look. Shape your brows carefully to enhance their natural arch and avoid over-plucking, as redheads often have lighter brow hairs that contribute to their unique appearance. If you need help, seek professional help to achieve a shape that complements your facial features and hair color. Embrace the natural thickness of your brows and groom them in natural lighting to ensure you achieve a polished and tidy appearance while maintaining their distinctive characteristics.
3. Enhance other parts of the face
Brows can intrigue and focus your face. When you have light brows, they tend not to do this as much, but you can balance that by bringing the focus elsewhere and enhancing other features like your eyes, lips, or freckles.
As a redhead, enhancing other parts of your face can beautifully complement your natural brows. Start with your complexion—opt for foundations and concealers that match your undertones to create a smooth canvas. Blush in peach or soft pink tones adds warmth without overpowering your natural red hair. Emphasize your eyes with eyeshadows in earthy tones like bronze or warm browns to bring out your eye color and balance your brows. Mascara in brown or plum shades enhances lashes subtly. Lips can be enhanced with nude shades or sheer berry tones to keep the focus on your brows while adding a touch of color. Finally, highlight the cheekbones and inner corners of your eyes with a champagne or gold highlighter for a radiant finish that complements your redhead glow.

4. Go for a natural look
If you like natural brows, consider rocking a more natural makeup look. Opt for redhead mascara in a shade like chestnut or auburn, do a foundation-free skin look, and let your natural beauty shine through. This will help your brows fit in more than they might with a full glam look.
5. Be confident
If you like light, natural brows on yourself, that is all that matters! There are no rules in beauty; it’s all about owning your look and feeling confident doing it. There’s no right or wrong way to wear your brows. By following these tips, you can feel more confident in your natural brows as a redhead, embracing their natural beauty and enhancing your overall appearance with a balanced approach to grooming and makeup.
Rock it like a Redhead!
