What make up do you use for your brows?

What do people use to ‘draw’ on their eyebrows? pencil, gel or powder? I’m absolutely rubbish at doing mine & am never happy with them. I’m currently using a pencil but they look crap every time. I don’t think it helped that I over plucked when I was younger Sad
I don’t like them too bold or in your face, I like them quite natural.

Would love to have them microbladed one day but just haven’t got that sort of money atm with two young kiddies.

Would like to know what people recommend?

Thanks Smile

Urban decay brow blade (2 ended one). It is a whole other level.

Glossier Boy Brow. Natural looking, very quick to use, doesn't smudge.

Glossier brow flick, game changer,

Lizzie523 · 03/09/2020 22:56

Been using soap and glory's brow blade/wand. Does the job but probably average.

ABH brow wizz is great for every day brows. So easy and the brush end has a cap so doesn’t get all funky!

Liquid eyeliner. I've got nothing to work with.

NYX brow mascara for just a 'slap on and look natural' day. If I want them more 'shaped' I use their micro brow pencil.

Brow maraca

I use the Sleek brow palette in dark. It’s the only dark brown I’ve found that doesn’t look ‘reddish’ on me.

Violetroselily · 04/09/2020 11:30

Benefit Gimme Brow or Hourglass Volumising Fibre Gel, I love both. When I need a pencil to fill in the tail, I use Maybelline Total Temptation - best pencil I've ever used

Plump82 · 04/09/2020 12:09

An eyebrow pencil i get from Primark. Its a really good ashy shade and super cheap. I then use Ardel Stroke a Brown to draw hairs as i was a teenager of the 90s and plucked most of mine out! Then i finish with a maybelline eyebrow gel that has fibres. Much prefer it to the Benefit one as its darker.

SpunBodgeSquarepants · 04/09/2020 12:12

Maybelline Satin Brow. It's got a pencil at one end and powder applicator at the other. I draw in the end of my brow with the pencil and fill in with the powder. By far the best brow product I've ever used! So easy.

chloxhunt · 04/09/2020 12:14

I honestly used eyeshadow

Benefit goof proof brow pencil. It makes drawing your eyebrows really easy.

minipie · 04/09/2020 14:39

Watching! I use a pencil but it’s always a bit blunt and I cba to sharpen every day. Would prefer something that mimics hairs rather than a filled in shape

Infullbloom · 04/09/2020 14:40

Stila eyebrow pen. Waterproof and doesn't budge. Also sparse of brow and its the only one I've found that lasts. The brow wands are only any good if you actually have brows!

StormBaby · 04/09/2020 14:45

I have literally no eyebrow on one side due to a childhood scar and I use Wunderbrow powder, you literally cannot tell

KrabbyPatties · 04/09/2020 14:46

Sharpie.

You will all think I’m lying but it’s true 🤣🤣

chunkyrun · 04/09/2020 15:06

I used benefit but since having them microbladed nothing

I use brown eyeshadow.

LemonBreeland · 04/09/2020 15:17

I have used both Barry M and Revolution powder kits. They are so easy to sue and look good. I can't get on with pencils. I have also in a pinch used brown eyeshadow.

@Nikori @bibbitybobbitycats

See, now I have to prove it looks ok. I have dark eyebrows anyway just add slight definition and only on the hair!!
