Best Eyebrow Shaping -
not just in Brooklyn - but in NYC!!!
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
I’ve been to Eliza and Robin Evans. Both are very good, but I find that Elke’s “eye” is more suitable to my own as far as shape and expression. I like a more natural brow with a pleasant expression. I can’t stand the harsh overly extended or arched brows that seem to be out there a lot. I just want to look like me - only better. Elke spent about an hour with me - listening, talking and getting to know my likes and dislikes. She totally understood!! She looked me face-on to see my bone structure and how my brows naturally grew. She explained every part to me and let me even watch while she was doing them so that I could say, “NOOOOOO!!” if I needed to. I didn’t need to. She shaped them and they look beautiful. They are the best I’ve ever had! I still need to grow one in more due to previous overwaxing. But Elke gave me tips on how to get them to grow faster and fuller. I’m SO glad I’ve found her. She is wonderful and I feel really lucky to have her in my neighborhood. WONDERFUL!!!

When In Brooklyn…
Well here they are….my beautiful new eyebrows. Elke is a genius…she was so sweet and welcoming! I was staying on the upper east side and I made my way downtown and eventually to Brooklyn where Ms. Elke works in a salon. Her eyebrow bar is very much sought after and I am sure you can see why.

I don’t have a lot of eyebrows to begin with (super thin Dietrich style over tweezed brows back in the 90’s…don’t ask!) they are fairly sparse as well. Elke managed to clean them up and fill them in just enough so that they were perfect! In addition to my great brows, I got some fantastic bath goodies.

We Love Beauty

We decided to ask fellow blogger and celebrity stylemaker, Elke Von Freudenberg her advice on achieving the perfect brow.

Eyebrows are a hot topic and with fall just around the corner it’s time to check the beauty routine and get those brows in shape. The definition of eyebrows can change your entire look and as the trend changes to thicker, more shapely brows, it might be time to put down the tweezers and head for the salon. Now we know the thought of waxing puts fear in the hearts o

Elke’s services are so highly sought after she has become bi-coastal; flying between NY and LA for celebrity clients, high-profile projects, and her signature brow wax services. We wanted to know why people fly from all around the country to see Elke for a custom brow wax when she’s in NY. The answer; sugar wax.

The New York Sun
The Pampered Brow
The right tools can also help to achieve the look. A makeup artist and eyebrow-shaping expert at Slope Suds Salon in Park Slope, Elke Von Freudenberg, said her favorite brow product is an angled brush — “the tiniest, smallest angle brush you can find.” Two of the best, she said, are Benefit’s Hard Angle Brush ($14) and Sephora’s Professionnel Platinum Angle Brush #22 ($18). She prefers powders to pencils, but adds that if your eyebrows are balanced in color and shape, neither is needed.

Tweezing your eyebrows can be a tricky thing. If you overpluck, it will take a week or so for those hairs to grow back. If you underpluck, then you risk looking like a bushy mess. Here are some tips to achieving the Model Eyeybrow look:

Are you a beauty?
Do something with your eyebrows.
I thought I was obsessed with shaping eyebrows, but Elke Von Freudenberg who writes the Beauty Newsletter really comes first when brows are considered. In her article The Model Eyebrow she writes word after word of quality eyebrow shaping advice, from which tweezers to use, which shape is right, where should you pluck and where not. But, the thing which most impressed me was the part about eyebrow makeup:

1. If you are growing in your eyebrows, or just want a different look, eyebrow shadows are the way to go. Leave the eyebrow pencils at home. Why? The wax in pencils can make eyebrows look too dark, heavy and easily smears in warm weather. Instead, apply eyebrow shadow with a small angle brush, that’s very soft and very thin. You’ll get the best line that way.
2. Best eyebrow colors? Choose a eyebrow shadow that’s 2-3 shades lighter than your hair color. Why? It always looks darker once it’s applied.
3. Once applied, take a small toothbrush and brush in the shadow into the skin. It will last hours longer and appear much more natural. This step is usually forgotten and often makes eyebrows appear heavy and fake.
4. Want a quick evening look? Take your eyebrow color but in a shimmery shade and apply just as you would during the day. The soft shimmer from the shadow will make eyes sparkle.

I mean, this gal is the eyebrow guru.
So, before you even think about doing your brows, or even getting them done at the salon, read Elke’s article.

Updating your look is fast & easy. Go for an eyeshadow shade that’s about three shades darker than your eyebrows (not your hair), and focus on creating a really sharp, straight line to the eyebrow. The easy way is with a really small, sharp angled brush - the smaller the better.

“Makeup for the spring/summer season is soft and shimmery with a splash or two of bright color,”
explains Elke Von Freudenberg, an editoiral makeup artist, represented by Punch Artists in New York City. “Women are wearing brighter lip color, for instance, with neutral shimmery shadows, or lavender and silvery white eye shdows with sheer glossy lipsticks. These newest loks are wearer-friendly and allow all but the most conservative consumers to update their images without feeling intimidated or garish.”

Creating a little beauty bliss is one thing, but maintaining that special appeal for an entire day is another matter. “It would be impossible to keep every cosmetic you use for your hair and face in your purse,” says Elke Von Freudenberg, celebrity makeup and hair artist for Fred Segal Beauty in Beverly Hills, “I create fall survival kits for my cliets that include everything they need to look their stunning best.”

WHOA! ONE LOOK AT YOUR LIPS AND THE WORLD KNOWS WHEN YOU ARE HAVING A GOOD DAY. Sure there is your smile to consider, but what about your lip color?
According to celebrity makeup artist Elke Von Freudenberg, lips are the most animated feature on your face, and one that begs for your full attention.

Lip colors for spring and summer 2002 range from milky pastels to tart brights. “While browsing the makeup count

er this season, the first thing you need to decide is the depth of the color that looks perfect on your lips,” she explains. “If you mouth is thin, choose lighter , brighter shades; and if it is overly full, consider going for the deeper side of this season’s new colors.”

Your Eyes
#5 If your cream eye shadow dries out,put a few drops of water or olive/mineral oil in it.

Your Lips

#19 Use a blush as a lipstick - just apply your blush on your lips with an eyeshadow sponge applicator, and then use your favorite clear lip gloss or lip balm over it.

#21 Makeup kits can range in the hundreds of dollars, so instead, simplify. Looking to store your lipsticks? Try the drugstore to find pillboxes, just fill with your favorite lipsticks by cracking in your lip colors with a Popsicle stick.

Your Face

#36 For a new bronzer, use a foundation that is two to three shades darker than your skin tone and apply where you would use your bronzer. If you’re in a pinch, dig out that warm brown eye shadow.

#37 Don’t spend money on expensive eye makeup remover. Find a pretty glass bottle and fill it with baby shampoo. There’s a reason they say “no tears.”
