Transcript
When I first started doing brows in Beverly Hills, I didn't have products to achieve the perfect brows. So I created my own good by the golden ratio to bring balance and proportion to every face. From mixing eye shadows and aloe vera in my salon to launching Deep Brow, Brow Wiz, and Brow Pen, all of that history leads to this, the new micro stroke brow pen. This is the ultimate imprecision, thirty years in the making.
