How to Use Pomade: Complete Beginner’s Guide for Perfect Styling
Introduction
If you want eyebrows that stay perfectly shaped all day — even in Dubai’s hot and humid weather — pomade is your secret weapon. Eyebrow pomade is creamy, long-lasting, and perfect for both natural and bold styling. But the real question beginners ask is: how to use pomade correctly?
This complete guide walks you step-by-step through using brow pomade like a pro, using the Ferrarucci Waterproof Eyebrow Pomade as our reference product. With the right technique, tools, and tips, you’ll achieve clean, defined, natural-looking brows every single time.
What Is Eyebrow Pomade?
Eyebrow pomade is a smooth, creamy, pigmented formula created to define, fill and shape the brows. It gives you more precision and longer wear than powder or pencil.
Why Pomade Is Popular in Dubai:
Heat-proof and humidity-resistant
Long-wearing for 12+ hours
Perfect for glam, sculpted, high-definition brows
Ideal for sparse or uneven brows

Load Your Brush (Lightly!)
Dip the angled brush into the pomade very lightly.
Remove excess product on the jar lid — this helps avoid harsh, overly dark brows.
Outline the Shape
Start from the bottom line of your brow
Create light, soft strokes
Define the arch and tail
Do NOT start from the very front of the brow — keep it softer for a natural look.
Fill Sparse Areas
Now use small, hair-like strokes to fill in gaps.
Start from the arch → then tail → and lastly the front.
This ensures a gradient, natural finish.
Blend for Natural Effect
Use your spoolie to brush through your brows.
This blends the pomade and removes any harshness.
Sharpen Edges (Optional)
For a clean glam look:
Take a tiny bit of concealer
Apply beneath the brow
Blend outward
This lifts and brightens the brow instantly.
Pro Tip #1
Start with a very small amount of pomade. It’s highly pigmented, and adding more is always easier than fixing overfilled brows.
Pro Tip #2
Dubai’s heat can break down makeup fast — finish your brows with a clear setting gel to keep them perfectly in place for 12+ hours.
Common Mistakes Beginners Make (Avoid These!)
Using too much product
Making both brows too dark
Starting from the front instead of the arch
Not blending properly
Using a thick brush
Applying pomade on oily skin (always wipe the area first)
