Crave: This vs That

So lately I've been craving big thick eyebrows.  I'm not talking thick, I'm talking thick, thick.  I already have pretty thick brows (thanks to good old dad), but I wanted to make them look a little more polished and a little darker.  I researched the topic of thick eyebrows for a while; reading tutorials, watching some YouTube beauty videos, and discovering the ideal eyebrow for my face.  The best video I came across was this one...

Now this girl looks amazing (and makes it look effortless)!  However, when I attempted this routine it wasn't as a success.  I believe my sister's exact words were "you sorta look like a drag queen".  Hmm... that could actually be a compliment?  But lets face it, I probably need some practice.  I'm just not a makeup kinda girl.  I try to be.  I want to be.  I didn't actually start wearing makeup til my junior year... in college.  And I was taught by a friend, not a professional.  I'm actually the girl who after doing her makeup will look in a different mirror and thinks... Geeze Jamie! That's not good!  So I never really learned how.  Basically what I got from this experiment experience is that practice really does make perfect.  And that you can find a much cheaper eyebrow kit then the one featured in this YouTube video at Rite Aid for $10.99. 

So instead of getting this for $65.00

You can get that for $10.99

Ok, so this isn't the exact kit I purchased (in fact I think Rite Aid had a better selection), but it does have similar features.  You can't beat a kit for this price.  What can I say, I love a deal!  It is pretty awesome and for sure did the job.  If you have any tips/tricks for thick brows, or just have any good makeup tips then (please) leave a comment. (I need all the help I can get.)
