Kylie Dotts says
I didn’t realize that simply applying tropical oils and nutrients as well as simple day-to-day changes could help have better eyebrow care. It may seem like something pretty small but I think that having good looking eyebrows can do a lot in making a first impression. People will often look at your eyes before anything else so having a beautiful frame around them would probably be a good way to impress.

Coconut oil really helped me. My eyebrows grew much thicker, and they are so silky now. But my sister got even quicker better results with Cherish Brow conditioner. So it depends, how urgently you need the result.
