IN MY
(BROW AND
LASH) KIT
“I have so many brow pencils
in my kit. I collect different
colours and consistencies.
I change the shade
depending on the regrowth
or tone of my hair colour, or if
I have a tan or not. My friends
also want to steal them! My
bestie will hold a pencil up
and innocently say, ’AJ, fancy
filling in my brows?’ Luckily
I love it!” I keep everything in
an old-school vanity case with
an over-the-shoulder strap by
Louis Vuitton. I use a separate
mini pencil case by The Daily
Edited in my suitcase to
protect my tweezers, glues
and sharps. My tweezers are
my hand extensions. I guard
them with my life!”

I literally marinate in them!”

“I spray dry shampoo on
a brow brush and comb it
through my brows. I’m always
experimenting with new
ways to enhance brows.”

“M.A.C’s false eyelashes
are wonderful for a dramatic
look sans extensions. I prefer
the half size or demi variety
to give the outer eye some
flare. Opt out of volumising
mascara to avoid the
bats-on-eyelids look. The best
mascara brush for false lashes
has loads of bristles to
separate the hairs.”

“My daily brow essentials
include a highlighter swept
across the brow bone for
radiance, followed by
my Micro Stroke Pencil to
frame the brow shape, then
a powder for a fluffy finish.
I also keep a brow spoolie
within reach to blend the
products and dab
concealer.”

“To keep my energy up on
busy days at the salon, I drink
two to three green juices
and nibble on cashews and
pistachios. I also keep the
coffee trade alive and well. ”
