birthday brows from Benefit

Did you know that Benefit offers a Happy Birthday Brow service??? Apparently I am totally out of the loop, because I just learned about this last month. For my thirty-somethingth birthday last week, I took a trip to the Benefit Brow Bar at Ulta Beauty in Rockville, Maryland.

Therese is the brow guru there, and she gave me the perfect arch that I have been needing. I rarely trust people with my brows. She actually asks her clients for input on their brow shape before she just digs in, and I happen to prefer something more angular to frame my round face. Whether you like a waxing or precision tweezing, this is a great way to give yourself that quick birthday beauty treatment before you hit the parties with your BFFs.

Even though most of their stores do carry Benefit Cosmetics, not every Ulta location has a Benefit Brow Bar. Make sure that you call ahead to ask and make an appointment. Also, leave a nice TIP for your brow guru. Yeah, the service is free, but that doesn't mean you should be ungrateful to someone for doing a fabulous job!!
