Try to lightly fill in the outline of them with a brow pencil or an angled brush, and then brush the product up in your brows so it blends naturally :)

I know if they don't begin at your nose you can lightly draw that part in

Well, when it comes to brows, how they should be shaped is largely dependent upon your face shape. Looking at your profile pic, it looks like you have a very angular shaped face, so thickness wise, you don't want thin and you don't want thick, medium brows that are more rounded with a very soft arch would work with your face shape. The last thing you want to do is give yourself a high arched brow; with your face shape, that will only make you look permanently surprised, and give your face a more lengthy look, which is something you don't want to do with your particular face shape.

No matter what shape your face is, there are pretty much 3 golden rules(some people don't like the use of the word 'rules' in relation to makeup, so if you wish, call them 3 guidelines.)

1. The head or start of the brow should begin at the bridge of your nose. You find it by vertically holding a pencil up to either side of your nose. Starting too far in can sometimes give one the uni brow look, and starting them too far back can make your nose look more on the wide side as well as make your eyes look farther apart than they are.

2. When it comes to the arch, it should be about 2/3 of the way out. You don't want your arch right over your iris, or too close to the center of your eye. Doing so will will give one a furrowed anxious look 24/7.

3. Do not shorten your tail... especially with your face shape. The tail should end on an imaginary line from the corner of the nose to the corner of your eye. You can extend your tail slightly further as long as your tail isn't lower than where your brow begins. Make sure your tails always taper to a crisp point... doing so lifts the eye.

Be careful with overdrawing...Most of the time, you'll end up with brows that look like they have been stenciled blasted on... In essence, they are way too thick, far too dark, and they just look artificial.

When it comes to brows, all you need are a few nice feathery strokes to get a nicely defined brow. Just pick a brow pencil or brow powder that is a shade lighter than your brow color. Doing so will keep your brows natural looking. Use light and feathery types of strokes to trace your natural brow shape a bit and then shade into any patchy areas you may have, then lightly spoolie to blend any harshness away. The goal here is to shadow your brows, not draw them in and completely change the entire shape.

If you are unsure of the overall look of your brows, in my opinion, it's best to get them professionally shaped. An expert can help you find your natural brow shape and provide you with tips to remember for your particular shape when you go leave the salon.  :)
