Its plastic comb is used to brush through eyelashes; its thick bristle brush is used to tame and shape brows. The angled brow brush, also known as the slanted liner brush, is used to apply eyebrow filler. You may also use the slanted tip brush to apply eye liner to your lids.
If you have defined eyebrows with minor gaps, use an eyebrow pencil. Select a brow pencil that is blend-able—it shouldn’t be extremely soft or too waxy.

To fill your eyebrows with brow pomade, take an angle brush and a brow pomade in your current hair color. Then dip the angled brush in the pomade and pancake both sides of the brush on a flat surface to create a thin drawing tip with your brush. Then draw in hairs in the sparse areas of the brows in the same direction of the hair growth. Place your pencil, pen, or brush at the arch of your eyebrow. Move the applicator out towards your nose and upwards towards your forehead in short, feathery motions. Do not draw straight lines. Return your applicator to the arch. Move the applicator out towards your ear and upwards towards your forehead in short, feathery motions. Repeat on the other brow. Do not draw straight lines. [2] X Research source

If you need to trim or thin your brows, do so with a spoolie brush and a pair of brow scissors. Use the spoolie brush to direct your hair upwards and out. Trim the excess hair that falls above your brow line with a pair of scissors laid horizontally across the top of the brow. Next, use the spoolie brush to bring the hairs down and out. Trim the long hairs that fall below your brow line with a pair of scissors.
To locate the start of your brow, place a brush vertically along the outside of your nostril so that the top of the brush intersects your brow. Your brows should begin at this point. Remove any hairs that fall beyond the brush (towards the center of your face) with a pair of tweezers. To locate the peak of your brow, slide the brush diagonally across your brow until the brush reaches the outer edge of your iris. This point of your brow should be the highest part of the arch. To locate the end of your brow, slide the brush diagonally until it reaches the outer corner of your eye. If any hairs fall beyond the point, remove them with a tweezers; if your brow does not extend to this point, you can add length to your brow with a filler. You may mark these three points on each of your eyebrows with a small dot of filler. [8] X Research source
