WHY I LOVE THIS DIY
It gives a light, natural tint to eyebrow hairs thanks to cocoa and (for darker hair) activated charcoal.
It keeps eyebrow hairs in place all day.
It nourishes the hair follicles and promotes hair growth. Great for sparse brows!
It’s suitable for all skin types.
It’s a snap to whip together.
It can be applied with a regular clean eyebrow or mascara brush
(called a spoolie).
A little product goes a long way.
It’s only 5 ingredients and it makes 1 small jar.
What you'll need:
1 tbsp Aloe Vera Gel
1/4 tsp Raw Honey
1/4 tsp Rhassoul Red Clay
1/4 tsp Jojoba oil
Optional: 3 drops RoseHip Seed Oil
(for extra eyebrow hair nourishment)
1 tsp finely sifted Cacao Powder
(for darker color, add more cocoa, 1/8 tsp sifted
beet powder or 1/8 tsp activated charcoal at
a time until you get the color you want)
Optional: 2-3 drops each lavender, rose
and rosemary essential oil
Create:
In a mixing bowl, combine the aloe vera gel, honey,
red clay, jojoba oil, (optional) rosehip seed oil, cacao powder
and (optional) essential oils. Stir together until smooth.
Store in a dry small jar with a lid OR add to a clean,
dry previously used eyebrow gel applicator tube.
Store in the fridge between uses.
(It’s fine to leave it out overnight accidentally,
it just keeps longer in the fridge).
To apply, use a clean rounded eyebrow brush (spoolie)
and dip it lightly into the gel. Wipe away excess
product off of the spoolie before applying
— you only need a little bit at a time.
Lightly sweep the gel into your brows in
an upward motion. Apply more products as needed.
Wipe away excess product from around your eyebrow
using your fingernail or a clean cotton swab.
Let dry completely to set the product. Reapply as needed.
Try to avoid scratching / rubbing your eyebrow
after applying. Reapply as needed with a
clean eyebrow brush. Personally I rarely need to
reapply this as it holds up all day!
To remove, simply wet your eyebrows and rub
them with clean hands or a washcloth.
You’ve basically worn a nourishing hair mask all day
so no need to strip with alcohol or soapy cleansers.
