3 Universal Brow Products That Will Simplify Slaying Your Brows
Though brows may be a small feature on the face, it goes without saying that it makes a huge impact on your overall look.
There's a fine line between undefined and over-defined brows, and it's often hard to find a happy medium. Between shape, color, and type of product, it can be hard to find the right brow product to naturally enhance your eyebrows. One simple solution to all of your brow woes is to try a universal brow pencil. And yes, universal as in a brow pencil that can work for varying brow hairs and skin tones.
A pencil alone allows you to properly fill in your brows but a universal brow pencil removes the headache of trying to find the perfect shade to go with your brows. Universal brow pencils were created to make choosing the perfect brow pencil easy. All universal brow pencils aren't created equally but we found a few that really live up to their names. We did all the work so you wouldn't have to.

ItGirl In Motion: Paige Shari Addison Shows Us Why She's The Hostess With The Mostess
Paige Shari Addison is the epitome of an ItGirl, which is why she is one of 100 ladies on xoNecole's inaugural ItGirl 100 list in partnership with Hyundai. Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Paige started her journey as a host in high school by hosting parties. Since then, she has made a career in hosting, from parties to big-name events, and she launched Strictly RNB, a platform for new artists and R&B lovers. Paige reflects on her creative path in the limited video series "ItGirl in Motion."
“My first curated event at Criminal Records was incredible. It was all for up-and-coming artists,” she says. “I needed a platform for us as a collective to be able to give ourselves the platform instead of asking for it, instead of looking for it. I was like, I want to make sure I let people get this experience that I would give as a performer but enjoy the experience with them. It was a dream come true.”
The Atlanta native also has her own line of acai bowls called Soulfull Bowls. She started it during the pandemic after events and parties shut down. But it was her love for eating acai bowls and the reactions others had to them that made her want to make it her next business move. Being open to creating new ventures in the midst of uncertainty is a bold move and one of the reasons why Paige has the “it” factor.
“Being an ItGirl means you’re just authentic. There’s an air to us. We have confidence that exudes from the way we speak, the way we put our lip gloss on, the way we walk, the way we talk. I show up as myself everytime I walk into a room. I’m hospitable, I make sure everybody’s good,” she says.
