The sought-after “eyebrow whisperer" known for her natural brow-shaping technique and expertise in brow health has been busy expanding her offerings. Her new skincare space, called The Secret Knock, features luxurious and cutting-edge treatments using Oxylight, a device loved by A-listers and available here for the first time in Northern California.
“The discovery of the Oxylight device had me running to L.A. to experience the treatment for myself, says Holmes. "I can see why celebrities get these treatments before red carpet events…because you truly glow after each session. Our clients are already over the moon.”
In other news, Holmes' clean beauty brand Rye has added a brow milk ($32): The gel-pomade hybrid lifts, conditions and defines eyebrows. In other words, it’s the perfect alternative for those who aren’t into chemical brow lamination. The product also contains growth-supporting peptides and nourishing ingredients to keep brows soft and in place.
