    The arch should sit about two thirds of the way to the outside edge of the brow. If you look straight on into a mirror it should fall above the outside edge of your iris.

    High can be referring to a dramatically sloped arch or to a brow that sits far above the eye either due to over-plucking or natural growth.

    Not too much, not to little. It really depends on your face. Look up eyebrow shapes to go with different face shapes for ideas.
  • Question
    How do I blend foundation properly?

    Community Answer
    Don't use too much foundation. Put the foundation on the back of your hand instead of directly on the face, and use a silicone or sponge beauty blender or similar product to blend out the foundation. You should do your foundation after concealer. Powder your foundation if you plan on doing your eye shadow after it, because fallout can smudge and leave streaks on your cheeks. Make sure to blend onto your neck as well, try not to get it into your hair and make sure you have the right shade of foundation.
  • Question
    Can I join the three points on my eyebrows to create the shape?

    Yes, you can do that to help you create the shape. It is quite hard to do it without joining them up, and if you find it helps you get the perfect shape, you are welcome to do that.
