Hi so I don’t normally do make up, I’m 2017 when I was pregnant I developed vitiligo I think that’s the correct spelling. A small my eyebrow on one side is now completely white and part of my face but it actually looks as though I don’t have any eyebrow . I no it’s only a small bit I’m not to worried about it but I would like to start covering it a little when in certain places. I was recently asked if I was in a fier🤔 so made me a little uncomfortable. I don’t think it looks that bad but would like to cover for certain things. Also what Would you use for the face part .

Hi OP, are you asking what to use to fill in the part of your eyebrow closest to your nose?

Benefit do a product called Brow Microfilling pen which you can use to draw in hair on your brows - the tip of the pen is like 3 little strands. I have half an eyebrow missing (don’t even ask) and I use it to fill in that bit. It’s quite natural looking when you get the hang of it, so might suit you if you don’t wear a lot of make up.

Yes that’s what I mean. Thank you so much I will try that thank you.

I can’t see from the picture - is your eyebrow hair missing or is it lighter colour? If lighter colour you could dye your brows. If it’s missing then yes, there’s some good make up options which allow you to draw on what looks like hair strokes. Or you could pay for microblading (semi permanent make up) to cover that patch.

I have a mallen streak in my hair, that is in the same place in my eyebrow.. so it looks bald in the middle .. I use maybelline tattoo brow which sounds like the benefit product mentioned above and darkens it down really well.. takes a bit of practice but easy enough really..

Thank you so much I will look at the maybeline tattoo brow. How long does that last once On is it something you do everyday ( I’m a bit lazy😂) It’s a lighter coulor so I still have the hair there is just my body has attacked the pigment cells. So the pigment is permanently lost. The microbilding is that like a tattoo kind of thing I’m terrified of the thought of needles so I would definitely stay away from that. Knowing me I would faint half way through😂

It lasts the day really well, but I do it every day..only takes 2 mins tho and it cost £10 I think.

If you still have hair it can be dyed (do the whole brow so it blends). You can buy kits on amazon etc but you might be better going to one of the numerous brow bars and getting it done there.

Ah. As you’ve got hair, I’d definitely recommend dying. You can get it done at most salons - it’s not that expensive and it will lay 6-8 weeks. Or do it yourself if you feel confident enough. That’s what I’d do anyway!

*last not lay!
