How can you create the perfect fluffy brows?

They are a further development of the eyebrows, where the focus is still on fullness. However, with an emphasis on uplift and structure. Fluffy at the front, full at the arch and tapered at the end.
Fluffy eyebrows are all about creating texture, but unlike a laminated brow they should look soft and fringe-like. You can change the amount of color product you put into the feathered brow to make it as strong or as natural as you desire.
