Hibernation of eyebrows: what is it?

Soon the return of winter. Now is the perfect time to test eyebrow hibernation. But … what is it exactly? We tell you all about this new trend in the beauty world that promises you the eyebrows you have always dreamed of.

If in the 2000s we all destroyed our eyebrows – now with regret – today, fashion is very different. In the end, the opposite of the ultra-fine eyebrows that we loved at the time, the current trend is natural, even full eyebrows. However, it is not by going to the beautician every month to take them back that we will achieve such a result. The solution ? Hibernation.

What is eyebrow hibernation?

Hibernation of the eyebrows is the new phenomenon entering the world of beauty. It is in fact to take a "break" in the beauty of our eyebrows, during the winter season. In other words, to stop waxing them. In the cupboard, tweezers, eyebrow scissors, and special "facial hair removal" wax strips! Giving up these utensils and products for several months will help your eyebrows regain all their natural beauty (we promise!).

The products and treatments that we recommend

It is not because we decide to hibernate the eyebrows that we are going to give up and neglect this so important part of our face. On the contrary, winter will become a good time to take care of it.

So first, add an eyebrow serum to your evening beauty routine. It will only take you a few more seconds, and in return, you can have a prettier line. We advise you to use the one from Rapid Brow. Available at a price of 29 euros on amazon.fr, the Rapid Brow serum has proven itself and is very famous in the world of beauty. Moreover, just read the reviews left on Amazon to be convinced. Consumers point to miraculous results: an eyebrow thicker, denser, as well as a good and rapid regrowth.

Also, 100% natural, we find castor oil. Known and recognized for its actions on hair and body hair growth (especially eyelashes), it can be used as a serum for our eyebrows. A treasure of nature for protected, hydrated eyebrows … in short, more beautiful. On Amazon, you will be able to find tubes of mascara containingpure castor oil cold pressed (like here, set of 2 castor oils in mascara at 9.99 euros). The little brush will be very practical for applying the product to the eyebrow every evening. And while doing so, don't hesitate to brush your eyelashes with it to help them have a nice length.

  • Eyebrow mask (homemade)

Second treatment that we would like you to discover: the eyebrow mask. Yes, you read that right ! Our skin and our hair are entitled to their masks … so why not our eyebrows? There is nothing better to take care of it, so let us give you the recipe for this treatment miracle. In a container, mix a tablespoon of honey with a teaspoon ofCastor oil (9.99 euros on amazon.fr) and a teaspoon ofcoconut oil (9.99 euros on amazon.fr). Apply liberally to your eyebrows using a flat brush. Leave on for 20 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. Give this mask to your eyebrows, once a week, for softer hair and faster growth.

What about makeup?

When hibernating the eyebrow, two choices are possible.

The first: that of opting for the natural menu. Your eyebrows will of course not be clear. So now is the perfect time to get started with the "wild eyebrow". For this, you can of course use the famous soap technique. Usually performed using the transparent Pears soap (6 euros on amazon.fr), this consists of brushing his eyebrows with a brush and soap. In addition to giving a dense appearance to the eyebrow, the soap technique will allow the hairs to be fixed upwards. Natural, wild and sexy effect guaranteed!

Are you tempted by the soap technique, but are you worried about not mastering it? Fenty Beauty has imagined the perfect product to reproduce the desired effect. The Fenty Beauty Brow MVP (21 euros on sephora.fr) is in fact a double-ended pen (on one side a clear and universal wax, then on the other a very fine silicone brush) for sculpting and fixing the eyebrow. A must that we loved, and that we recommend.

If, on the contrary, you do not appreciate having a too natural eyebrow, and you prefer a more defined, precise… continue to apply makeup to your eyebrows and eyes. Many products are available to you, and here is a selection of our 3 favorites to spend the winter with eyebrows on fleek:

  • The Brow Ultra Slim by Maybelline New York. Perfect dupe of the Brow Wiz of Anastasia Beverly Hills, this pencil is very precise thanks to its rather fine lead. As for its texture, it is perfect: that is to say, neither too dry nor too oily. 25 euros on sephora.fr
  • The Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow. We no longer present this ointment used by many beautystas. Available in 11 different shades, it is applied with a very fine flat brush for great precision. 10 euros on amazon.fr
  • The Diorshow Pump N Brow by Dior. This mini mascara designed for the eyebrows promises a certain volume with a natural finish (and not cardboard). 29.90 euros on nocibe.fr
