Ah Cannes. Year on year the Cannes Film Festival red carpet never fails to set the tone for the new season. And over the last 12 days we've been hooked on the beauty looks our favourite celebrities have been showcasing premiere after premiere. Take Gigi Hadid's beachy bombshell blonde, for example, and Jennifer Lawrence's ultra-glossy lips. The latest addition to our 'Saved' folder on Instagram? Jasmine Tookes' DIY laminated brows.
Now, laminated eyebrows are nothing new. The Insta-approved brow look has already been on the beauty scene for several years and offers a semi-permanent brushed-up effect with a super slick finish. But thanks to clever eyebrow products, you can now achieve the same look at home and for a fraction of the price, as Jasmine proved this week.
Her make-up artist, celebrity go-to Patrik Ta (who is the trusted hands behind Gigi, Lori Harvey and Adriana Lima's best beauty looks) just took to just Instagram to reveal the gel he used to prep and prime Jasmine's brows for the red carpet. Using his own brand's Major Brow Lamination Gel, £24, Patrik faked the appearance of a brow treatment that usually takes 1.5 hours and various technical stages to perfect. Genius.
The Major Brow Lamination Gel's waxy, tacky texture allows you to manipulate brow hair in the direction best suited to you and dries down without residue, serving up long-lasting hold. Brows are left fluffy, not crunchy, and we have brow-boosting ingredients to thank for that - a blend of thickening peptides, protective microalgae, and conditioning coconut extracts means your brow hairs are being conditioned as they're styled. This is at-home lamination made speedy, easy and affordable.
