Here's Why Beauty Vloggers Are Rubbing Glue Sticks on Their Eyebrows

We've rubbed our brows with onions and soap, but the internet isn't finished suggesting strange substances to apply above our eyes. Vloggers are swiping Elmer's glue sticks onto their faces to make their brows disappear entirely.

First developed by drag performers, the glue stick trick allows you to get a perfectly smooth surface where your eyebrow hairs normally would stick out. Apply setting powder and makeup on top, and voila: Your eyebrows vanish.

So if you're going for over-the-top, totally drawn-on Halloween brows that bear zero resemblance to your natural arches, here's the step-by-step from James Charles and Lauren Elyse.

1. Rub on the glue

2. Comb out your brows


3. Beat your setting powder

4. Put on foundation

5. Apply makeup




6. Slay
