The 3-step Fenty Skin routine that understands the assignment

We spend so much time perfecting our base, blending blush, carving out contour and flicking on the perfect wing, but there’s one step that too often slips through the cracks. Brows. They might not be the first thing you think of when planning your routine, yet they quietly hold the power to shape your entire look. Lately, though, that’s been changing. Full, feathered brows are having their moment again, and it’s easy to see why.
A well-groomed brow can lift the face, frame the eyes and make even the most minimal makeup feel intentional. They’re the subtle detail that makes everything else look more polished without trying too hard. That’s why brows deserve their own ritual—something easy, repeatable and far from intimidating. Think of it as a small daily indulgence, a beauty shortcut that works harder than it looks. To make it effortless, we’ve put together a four-step guide designed to slip into your morning routine and guarantee good brow days, every day.

Every good brow routine begins with a little grooming. Start by brushing the hairs upward with a spoolie or brow brush—this instantly reveals your natural shape, plus any stray hairs or uneven lengths. Use precision tweezers to pluck only the obvious outliers (step away from over-tweezing—we’ve all been there). If a few strands are noticeably longer, trim them gently with small brow scissors while the hairs are brushed up, so the line stays clean.
The goal isn’t to redraw your brows but to refine what’s already there, giving you a polished base to build on. A quick tidy once every couple of weeks makes a big difference—even before you’ve picked up a pencil or gel. Finish by brushing them back into place for a shape that looks clean, natural and effortless.
Once your brows are neat, it’s time to add a little fullness. The right product depends on the look you want: a fine-tip pencil for precision strokes, powder for soft all-over coverage or a pen for those barely-there hairlike flicks. You don’t have to stick to just one. Many pros layer—a pencil to sketch in the shape, then powder to diffuse and soften.
The trick? Keep it light. Only fill in gaps or sparse spots and let the natural brow do most of the work. Soft, subtle strokes are key; remember, less is more.
Now it’s time to lock everything in. A clear gel is the easiest way to brush brows into place and keep them looking polished without adding colour. If you want more payoff, tinted gels are a game changer—they add hold and a wash of colour in one sweep (in fact, on rushed mornings, a tinted gel can replace filling altogether). If you prefer something bolder, try a pomade for extra definition.
On days when you want your brows to stand out, a little extra definition goes a long way. Lightly trace concealer just beneath the brow line to sharpen the shape and make arches look lifted. The aim isn’t to carve out those harsh, overdone brows of the past, but to brighten and define in a subtle way.
For a finishing touch, sweep a highlighter across the brow bone to catch the light and add a soft sheen—it instantly draws attention to your brows without looking forced.
