Eyebrows

After years of dyeing my hair very dark, I finally grew it out as I was sick of the constant need to do the roots every 3 weeks. So what was underneath was actually a pretty nice silvery platinum. But what do I do about my eyebrows? They're a bit pepper and salt, and I always used an eyebrow pencil to keep them dark to match my hair. But what do I do now? Have platinum hair and dark eyebrows? I can't imagine having white eyebrows.

Experiment with different eyebrow pencils and see what suits you. Having them threaded will look better too.

Nothing worse than bushy brows on girls.

get a blonde pencil :)

I have quite dark hair and brows and I ALWAYS use a blond penicil! Sound odd but anything darker than that makes me look VERY heavy in the brow department even though they are waxed and perfect shape etc.

I tend to think matching to mascara colour ISH is the best look, ie if you are going to use a dark colour mascara then youd be fine with blond etc on the brows.

I like the light hair, dark brow look.

I always keep them well shaped and they have a nice arch to them, it was just the colour that I was struggling with. Dark brown looks wrong, but in a weird way almost black looks kind of right and quite funky too. I will look out for a blond pencil and try that too. Thanks all.

A mid hazel coloured brow pencil? Buy a few cheap ones, see what suits, then go back and get something in a colour you like.

Rimmel do a hazel coloured one.
