Beauty tutorials are big on YouTube — a search for “makeup tutorial” and “hair tutorial” yields more than five million videos. In this weekly series, we put a mix of popular and under-the-radar tutorials to the test and show you what’s best.

Tweezing, shaping, trimming and grooming your brows can be intimidating — especially for beginners who aren’t used to going the DIY route. But it’s actually a fairly simple process, if you have the right tools and know the steps to follow. That’s where blogger Tina Yong’s Youtube tutorial comes in. She breaks down the process of shaping and grooming her own brows — then also walks through the makeup routine she uses to fill in and highlight them — in simple, easy-to-follow steps. 

The process Yong demonstrates is ideal for those who are looking to touch up their brows in between professional tweezing, waxing or threading sessions (and therefore not starting from scratch in terms of finding the best arch shape). Watch the full video below to see exactly how she does it — and one perhaps unexpected tool she uses for extra precision.
