This sissy definitely notices when someone else’s brows are “on fleek.” Years ago, this sissy consulted with a makeup artist to have her brows done in a way that could pass as masculine (yet maintained) and still be styled to be more feminine. Over time, this sissy has continued to tweak the line and probably has crossed the line into a more feminine look with more of an arch and thinned brows.
That brings me to today’s issue: how to deal with flaky brows? This sissy has found that she often develops dry, scaly skin under her brow hairs and, as her brows have thinned, the flakes become more apparent. Think of this as “dandruff in the eyebrows.” Before you ask, yes, this sissy also suffers from normal dandruff is she isn’t careful (which often is the case). And, yes, stress likely is a contributing factor, but one that probably won’t be going away anytime soon.
A solution, according to Healthline may be to use a dandruff shampoo. The idea is to work the dandruff shampoo into a lather and then apply the lather to your brows, leaving it to do its magic for a few minutes before rinsing. Selsun Blue is an example of a dandruff shampoo containing the active ingredient of selenium sulfide. Other tests have shown that 5% tea tree oil can be helpful when combined with a moisturizer or lotion. This sissy may just try to use The Body Shop’s Mattifying Tea Tree Lotion and see if that helps.
If that doesn’t work, this sissy will turn to the solutions suggested in this Self magazine article.
