Here’s the List of Essential Tools You Need For Brow Shaping At Home

We are thrilled that we have been able to re-open our Ziba Studio in Serramonte, Daly City. We will soon open all our other studios, and you can start walking into your favorite beauty center, but in the meantime, if your location is not yet open, let’s all keep being safe. We understand that you need to stay beautiful despite the safety restrictions in place due to the coronavirus. That is why the Ziba Family has curated an essential list of tools you need to keep your eyebrows in perfect shape wherever you are. At the moment, these items are the best we can offer (asides our love, of course) till it is okay to resume in-person services at our beauty studios. Here are the tools that you will always need to groom your eyebrows at home: Double Sided Eyebrow wax strips The Brow Crayon by Ziba Cosmetics The Conceal Light by Ziba Cosmetics The Hi-Lite Pearl by Ziba Cosmetics The Multi Task Brush by Ziba Cosmetics The Finish Wax by Ziba Cosmetics The Brow Trio by Ziba Cosmetics Antibacterial Sanitizing wipes Ziba Beauty Dual Pencil Sharpener  Double Sided Eyebrow Wax Strips We are leaders in the art of waxing, and we have designed these small-sized wax strips perfect for removing unwanted brow hairs. When you want to wax around a predefined brow shape, simply warm a wax strip between the palms of your hands. Open the strip by peeling it into two, and then place the strip in the direction where the hair is growing. Hold your skin firmly and pull off the wax strip in a quick and singular motion. When you pull off the strip, make sure it is lifted in the opposite direction of where the unwanted hair is growing. The ingredients used in making the wax are quite safe and gentle on all skin types (including sensitive skin). The wax is made using Glyceril Rosinate, Cera Alba, and Ricinus Communis Seed Oil. The Brow Crayon by Ziba Cosmetics Want to get that flawless blend? The Brow Crayon by Ziba Cosmetics is the perfect tool for doing just that as it comes in light, medium, and dark shades. Its textured wax formula will define, fill, and correct your brows quickly. You don’t have to be worried about sparseness in your brow frame anymore, as the brow crayon will naturally fill all scanty areas. What’s more? It boosts natural hair growth. The brow crayon has a special spoolie that you can use to brush your brows for softening and blending purposes. The Conceal Light by Ziba Cosmetics If you want to hide uneven skin tones, the Conceal Light by Ziba Cosmetics is the right tool for the job. What if you want to do some contouring or priming? The Conceal Light still has you covered. And that’s not all. Even if you’re going to shade or correct your brows, this concealer pencil is the perfect brow customization tool to accomplish all these tasks. The Hi-Lite Pearl by Ziba Cosmetics When it comes to lifting, lighting, and accentuating your brows – leave those jobs to the Hi-Lite Pearl by Ziba Cosmetics. Its radiant and creamy formula will leave your brows commanding attention everywhere you turn. Get that perfect finish for your eyebrows with the Hi-Lite Pearl right from your home’s comfort and safety. The Multi Task Brush by Ziba Cosmetics This is one handy grooming tool you cannot do without. It combines a brow and lashes comb, a tapered brush tip, and a brow brush on one single tool. With the comb, you can always separate your brows and lashes to make them look neat every time. When you need to smoothen your brows and shapen them properly, the brow brush is your friend. And when its time to apply your brow powder and blend it, the brush tip has got you covered. The Finish Wax by Ziba Cosmetics The Finish Wax by Ziba Cosmetics can help you fill, define, and correct your eyebrows while stimulating natural eyebrow hair growth. The Finish Wax in a pencil form is the perfect finisher for all eyebrow types. It makes your brows appear full but in a natural and flawless-looking manner. It comes in shades of light, medium, and dark so that it can blend perfectly with your eyebrows. The Brow Trio by Ziba Cosmetics This is the flawlessly blending signature powder by Ziba cosmetics designed to give you that impeccable shade. With the Multi Task Brush, you can use the Brow Trio powder to shade, fill, and define your eyebrows. Antibacterial Sanitizing Wipes The antibacterial sanitizing wipes can be safely used on the skin as well as other surfaces to kill 99.9% of germs. You will need the wipes to clean excess wax when you use the wax strips for brow removal. Ziba Beauty Dual Pencil Sharpener When pencils like Hi-Lite Pearl, Conceal Light, or Finish Wax get blunt, the Ziba Beauty Dual Pencil Sharpener is always there to keep the pencils sharpened. You don’t have to get frustrated by blunt pencils anymore with the Ziba Beauty Dual Pencil Sharpener.

Feb Faves 2019 | Ziba Beauty

Is it us or did February just fly by? Maybe it’s because it was a shorter month or it could be that we emulated the meaning of “time flies when you’re having fun!” Tbh it was probably a bit of both, the second one being way more applicable to this post. We had so much fun listening / using / watching / loving things this month, that we wanted to share all the good stuff in a round up called… you guessed it, Feb Faves! Maybe this list will inspire you to try something you haven’t before OR maybe, you have a favorite that’s the same as ours – let us know if we’re soulmates! Now, let’s get straight into it. These are a few of our favorite things…. Can you guess what the first one is? 1.thank u, next – Ariana Grande Yes we, like everyone else, have had this album on repeat in our office and studios. Really though, we can’t get enough of these bops and while to some, it might seem Needy and a situation in which only NASA can help; we say it’s a Bad Idea and are cruising on by singing thank u, next. 2.thank u, next – Ariana Grande Okay okay, so we may have binged this show because it was just. so. good. From the story, to the acting, to the direction, the entire show was executed flawlessly and was mysterious, gruesome and still hilarious in all the right places. We highly recommend watching (when you have very little responsibilities lol). P.S. we’d like to give a special shout out to Jordan Robbins’ brows because they’re perf. 3.Oscar Brows Speaking of Jordan’s brows – we wanted to quickly mention our other brow favorites from this years’ Oscars Ceremony. While there were a ton of great brows out there; these four sets of brows stole the show (especially the last two). Keep scrolling to see what we’re talking about! Also, whose brows will you be showing your Brow Artist for inspo? Tessa Thompson and her naturally natural brows just slayed as usual: Emilia Clarke’s fiercely stunning, bold brows, stood their ground on the red carpet (and could probably take on a dragon or two): And our absolute fave brows(s) go to this gorgeous couple, whose arches had us wowing for days. Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet: 4.Ziba Cosmetics: Finish Wax Pencil You know we can’t do a favorites post without including one of our own products and this month we’ve been reaching for the Finish Wax A LOT. With the “New Year” feels still motivating us, we’ve all been trying to stay on our health game by making working out, a priority. We don’t tend to wear makeup when we exercise but some of us have some pretttyy long brow hairs that can tend to have a mind of their own if they’re not tamed – especially if we’re moving around a lot. Enter; the Finish Wax Pencil. The wax pencil is perfect for working out because it’s not quite makeup and won’t irritate your skin if your face gets at all sweaty. It has a flexible hold that will keep all those brow hairs in place all-day. Plus, you won’t look weird by only having a brow product on because this pencil is 100% transparent! Basically, some of us have resorted to carrying a second Wax Pencil in our gym bags and we don’t plan on changing that any time soon. And those are some of our Feb Faves! Did you have anything you especially loved this month – share them with us! Take Care, Ziba Beauty xo

3 Simple Ways to Brow Perfection

With a full schedule and an already complicated makeup routine, taking care of your brows can seem like a chore and will often result in them getting neglected. We get it, brows seem like the least important part of your makeup routine BUT it turns out they’re actually the most important. Your brows can shape your face and change the way the rest of your makeup looks. Often times, filling-in your brows can actually minimize the amount of other makeup you apply because when the brows are done, they instantly lift your face and bring all the attention to the eyes. We realized this a while ago and knew that if we could perfect our brow routine – we would save so much time getting ready and not feel the need to invest in a ton of other makeup. So, what did we do? Well apart from creating our bestselling Brow Crayon, we developed 3 new products for the brows that can also be used in a multitude of other ways. Keep reading to find out more!

The creamy formula blends flawlessly for a luminous, refreshed finish, wherever you choose to use it. ————– Click image to watch the product video! ————– This pencil can be used to: Highlight the brow bone. Accentuate the inner corner of the eyes. Highlight the cupid’s bow and nose. As an eyeshadow on its own or, over a matte eyeshadow.

10 Holiday Gifts We’re Loving for $40 & Under!

If you’re anything like us, you always find the best gifts when you don’t actually need to get them and then, as soon as the Holiday Season hits – all the gift ideas you had, suddenly disappear into thin air with a *poof*! If the above sounds like you, then this blog post is definitely one you should read. We know gift giving can be stressful when you have no idea where to start – but it doesn’t have to be! Gifting should be fun so we decided to make things a lot easier for you with a Gift Guide featuring some of our favorite things, all at $40 and under! Our philosophy is that you should gift something you think you’d also love to receive (obviously depending on the recipient) and that way you know you’ve picked something special. Without further babbling, here is our 2018 Holiday Gift Guide that hopefully* has a little something for everyone on your list. If anything, we hope this gives you some gift-spiration. Happy Shopping! #1 The One Who Stays Sparkling STILA, Aura Alight Glitter & Glow Highlighter and Liquid Eyeshadow Set: $30 This gift is 100% for your glam friend, the one who has a sparkle in their step and the one you KNOW is going all out for the Holidays and New Years Eve. We already love the Stila Liquid Eyeshadows and this set of minis includes eyeshadows AND highlighters! Get it while it’s on sale for only $30 on sephora.com. #2 The One Who Always Accessorizes Sayran Jewelry, Luxor: $22 & Caravan Hoops: $26 OF COURSE we had to include something eye-inspired in our gift guide and these pieces couldn’t be more perfect. Inspired by her Kurdish culture, Sayran hand-makes all the unique jewelry pieces on her site and we think they make for the perfect gifts, for anyone who loves to wear jewelry that you can’t just get anywhere! You’ll be the favorite gift giver this year with one or both the pieces shown above and you’ll be giving your loved one a symbol of protection AND supporting a woman-owned business. It’s a win win win all around. #3 The One Who Loses Everything Soda Says x Chipolo Classic 2.0 Bluetooth Tracker: $24.95 We all have that one person in our lives who loses absolutely everything – from their keys to their wallet, to their cell phone. Don’t get us wrong, we adore this person but we also think it’s time they get a little extra help. The Chipolo tracker is the must-have for anyone who’s always misplacing stuff. It’s easy to use, super cute and comes in a variety of colors for only $24.95. You can attach it to anything you want AND double-press the Chipolo to make your phone ring, even if it’s on silent! Tbh this gift would be perfect for anyone with a cell-phone in general and a gift you know will get used (probably on the daily)! #4 The One Who Says They Need To Drink More Water S’well Bottle, Super Nova: $29 If we can be sure about anything, it’s that water is good for you, your skin, your body, your soul etc. etc. The problem is, most people forget to drink water on the daily, even though they know they should. This is such an easy problem to fix with one helpful item – a reusable water bottle. It sounds simple and you’re probably wondering why anyone would want to receive a water bottle as a gift. Our theory is that you’re actively saying you care for their well-being and want to support them by adding something to their lifestyle that will improve their health significantly – and who doesn’t want to be told how loved they are?! Carrying a cute water bottle around is a sure-fire way of remembering to drink water. One of our favorite brands is S’well, whose bottles come in all shapes, sizes and designs, don’t leak AND can carry hot and cold beverages. P.S. You’d also be helping better the environment with this gift! #5 The One Who Loves To Cook#5 The One Who Loves To Cook Barnes & Noble, Magnolia Table: $18.24, Whiskey in a Teacup: $21.27, Harry Potter Cookbook: $12.81 For anyone who loves to be cooking and baking away in the kitchen, a recipe book is always a good idea. There’s something rather special and home-y about creating food from a recipe book rather than reading it off your phone with your sticky fingers. Plus, everything is all in one place and cook books are great to keep on your coffee table for guests or yourself to read and get inspired by. All three of these books are on Barnes and Noble’s best seller list and would make awesome gifts for the food connoisseurs in your life (or even beginners!) Pick any two of these books and you’ll have a thoughtful gift set for under $40! #6 The One Who Needs To Prioritize Themselves Ellia Dream Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser: $40 The person that’s always on-the-go, always giving a helping hand and never taking time for themselves… that’s who this gift is for. Made to fill the air with essential oils to lift your mood and help you breathe easy, this diffuser is the ultimate gift for anyone who needs to relax and take it easy. Whether or not they realize it, the busy-bee person in your life is probably in need of some TLC and an oil diffuser is a great way to start incorporating that into their lifestyle, even if it’s in the office. The Ellia Dream Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser is a perfect option because it’s small, great for travel and comes with three samples of 100% pure essential oils. Get it now from Urban Outfitters for $40! #7 The One Who Carries Their Life With Them Side Tassel Bag:$26 & Faux Croc Cardholder: $9.50 Purses, bags, wallets oh my! We love a good bag and wallet combo for gift giving and for

Unfortunately, when it comes to sales such as Black Friday, the offers are usually only available for a limited time and once they’re done, you feel like you’ve missed out.
