Diet tips
Eat food containing high source of vitamin C and E. Drink water regularly. Do not allow your cells to dehydrate. Include juices, soups and curd in your diet. Avoid too much coffee and tea. Eat citrus fruits like orange, amla, lemon and sweet lime. Consume banana, nuts (almonds, walnuts) and dairy products. Taking multivitamin supplements will also help.
Some Tips
Most of the people use so much of cosmetic in their daily routine. They either apply eyebrow pencil or mascara to darken their eyebrows and give them high definition. I agree cosmetics enhance looks but at the same time too much of anything is bad.
Therefore I suggest you to let your skin and eyebrow roots breath. Let them have enough oxygen. Regular usage of cosmetic can ruin your eyebrow hair quality and consequently weaken and fall. This will also results in eyebrow hair loss. Be smart and fill in eyebrows wiith pencils or powders only when it is too essential. And if you are already having eyebrow hair loss or fall then I suggest you to strictly stop using cosmetics.
