So, you want to pluck your eyebrows. Good for you. We support that.

Those little hairs are hard to see, and finding the right lighting can be quite the drama. You think you're done, but then you catch yourself in the kitchen mirror and realize that in another light, you're still Frida.

Witness a pair of tweezers with a bright white light built in. Genius!

Sure the eyebrow shape your mama gave you is just the right one for your face. That doesn't mean there isn't a little clean up involved to keep them looking right.

It's a sad fact that some people go so insane with plucking that they have to paint their eyebrows on (why, why, why!?) while others are so unkempt that their uni-brow can be seen from space.

Every girl needs a good pair of tweezers. I know a few boys who could use some, too. And, if you're in the market for a new pair of tweezers (or your first pair because your unibrow is earning you the nickname "Sesame Street Bert"), why not get some that will help more than just your appearance?

The Tweezerman Go Green Mini Slant Tweezers are the perfect choice. They're small and the perfect size for travel (or to hide if you don't want everyone to know you're a plucker). Plus, for every pair purchased one dollar is donated to the National Arbor Foundation and a tree is planted.

Knowing you're doing something good for the environment might even take some of the sting out of the tweezing process -- who knows?

It's no secret that Tweezerman tweezers are the best in the world. I don't care how much more you spend on something else, go to some luxury spa or boutique, you will find no better pair of tweezers than the Tweezerman, and spcifically, the ones that have the slanted edge. They are so accurate and precise that they can pull out the finest, tiniest of baby hairs that are just barely starting to poke through the skin. Without the Tweezerman tweezers, your eyelids will look like they've been sprinkled with black pepper.

While we all know this, I have to give Tweezerman yet another shout because I absolutely love that they do free sharpening. Free! All you have to do is toss your tweezers into a padded envelope (no need to insure them package), send it off, and a week later, your tweezers come back totally sharp and ready to attack your eyebrows like they've never left the battlefield.

Including today, we have three more days of October, but don't let the close of National Breast Cancer Awareness month stop you from supporting the cause for research and awareness all year-round. However, until October 31, we're still thinking pink.

Tweezerman, "positively the finest tweezers in the world...the choice of make-up artists, models and celebrities," and my personal choice, is supporting BCA charities for the sixth time with special tweezers. The tweezers aren't just pick, as they come in lavender and hand polished stainless steel. All tweezers feature a tiny print of the BCA ribbon. If you don't already have a pair of tweezers, these are the ones you should get right now because they are the best in the world for grabbing everything, even those tiny eyebrow hairs that look like a speck of pepper. These will get those, too!

Available online at Amazon.com for $20 per pair.
