First, prep the face. Here’s what we used:

Foundation: MAC Studio Sculpt + Face & Body

Concealer: Bye Bye Under Eye

Powder: MAC Mineralize Skinfinish

Bronzer: MAC Mineralize Skinfinish

Blush: MAC Warm Soul

For the Brows

Brow pencil: MAC Stud

Glue: Duo latex glue

Glue Alternative (not used in this tutorial): Snazaroo Face Paint Glitter gel

Glitter: MAC pigment, or any glitter you like! 

Fixative: Fix +

Step 1Apply brow pencil lightly to the brow for definition in the area you’re working.

Step 2: Use a flat synthetic brush to apply latex glue to the brow, working in sections. Note: it’s important not to use a natural hair brush because the glue will damage the bristles; this glue dries fast so be sure to work in small sections to avoid clumps.

Step 3Pat glitter onto glue in thin layers.

Voila! For a bold look, the glitter brows and lips can be worn  together. To keep it more simple, wear separately. Up to you!

That brow styling is very special, although brows and lips would be too much for me. Thanks for sharing!
