Any recommendations for a good eyebrow tweezer?

Question

The one I have is a bit "bulky", I want something that will get real close to the skin. I heard theirs some that will not hurt as much. Also, how much should I be looking to spend on a worthy plucker? Thanks!

Answer 1

their curved

Answer 2

Tweezerman is by far the best brand for tweezers. They specialize in just this tool (hence their brand name) so they are always of good quality. A Tweezerman tweezer runs from $14-$25 at Sephora, depending on the size (mini or full), style (pointed, slanted, or both), and color/pattern. A regular, drugstore tweezer runs from $3-$10. The quality of tweezers don't vary as much as other beauty tools, unless you're comparing a Dollar Store tweezer to a Tweezerman. However, I still think the extra couple bucks is worth it.

Here are all Tweezerman tweezers at Sephora:

I've never heard of a tweezer that makes tweezing hurt less, but I know of a few tips and tricks to ease the pain.

- Always tweeze after a bath, it will open up the pores and tweezing or threading will be less painful.

- Avoid tweezing the week before or during your period. The body and skin is extremely sensitive during this time. The best time to tweeze is the week after.

- Rub the eyebrow area with a cotton ball soaked in an astringent. This numbs the skin for sometime and you do not feel much pain.

- Always pull in the direction of the hair growth, never against it. This also prevents ingrown hairs.

- Use a cotton ball or pad soaked in pure tea tree oil or witch hazel to soothe your tweezed brows.

- You may also run an ice cube over the brows after tweezing.

- There are also products and creams to apply after tweezing, like this one from Sephora:

Tweezer man. You can get them on line, at Bath and Body, or Linen and Things

Answer 4

Plucker: $10-$20

But your best bet would be to just trim the brows.  What you do is you brush the hairs up (with a brow brush or tooth brush) and with scissors trim JUST the hair that goes above the upper brow-line.  Then pluck any stray hairs underneath the brows.  The tweezers you want for doing this should have a 45 degree angle.
