Saladbox X Benefit Browgraphy Workshop

Tuesday, May 03, 2016

If you've read my Saladbox Holiday Box post, you'll see that I got one ticket to the Saladbox X Benefit Makeup workshop. I was excited to attend because I knew it'd be the bomb (coz it's Benefit!). I reserved a slot last February at Benefit Greenbelt. But then there were some changes so the available slot I got was the one at Benefit BGC.



It was a fun workshop because it is all about brows! Remember how we all went through that phase where we got so frustrated because our eyebrows were not on fleek? I did and I just lately discovered that groomed brows definitely make a difference to your overall look.


The good ladies from Benefit taught us all they knew about brows. Browgraphy is a way to map your brows so it'll be easier to groom and shape the way you feel like it. It includes the proper length of your brows, and color matching and it involves a lot of practice.


My brows are way lot darker and unruly and it was hard to look for a shade that would match my blonde hair. For a long, I have relied on makeup specialists from beauty counters to shape and groom my brows. But now, I've been constantly trying to teach myself to properly groom my brows.


During the workshop, we were taught the basic steps to achieve that ever-elusive #EyebrowsonFleek. First, we were taught to locate the three points that will serve as a guide for the overall brow shape. The three points are The starting point, which is in line with the tear ducts of one's eye and the sides of the nose, the arch, which is in line with the sides of the nose as well as the eye's pupil, and lastly the tail, which inline with the end of your nostrils and eye.

After the workshop, I regret having overplucked the tail of my eyebrows. I overplucked it simply because it was easier to just draw the tail perfectly rather than taming unruly brows. Boy, I was so wrong.

After the workshop, we were free to try the different Benefit products on their counter. Benefit is one of the beauty brands I love. My first Benefit product was the Glowla Kit and the Georgia Blush. Aside from their pretty adorable packaging, the product itself is quite pigmented and really good.





I was looking around and browsing through their different products. I was immediately drawn to their boxed sets and blushes. They were amazeballs!


 After the workshop, We were asked if we wanted our brows waxed and shaped right then, but my brows was recently groomed during the bridal fair, so I was advised to let it grow for a few weeks before having my brows waxed.

I learned a lot from the workshop. I may not have achieved the perfect eyebrows yet, but with practice, I'm sure I'll achieve that #EyebrowsonFleek look. Pictured above are the items we took home after the Browgraphy workshop. Thank you Saladbox and Benefit Philippines for the invite, I sure learned a lot!

Saladbox and Benefit are having another round of beauty workshops. If you want to participate, see the flyer above for more details. It'll surely be fun!
