Microblading could be the semi-permanent solution to repairing over-tweezed brows or defining barely-there kilay. Unfortunately, the said procedure is expensive and can be a bit painful to go through.
Worry not, though. You can still get the feathery, bushy brow effect, DIY style. The key technique is to draw hair-like strokes on the sparse areas to mimic the appearance of real strands. It takes practice, yes, but these products make it super easy to do!
