On a zoom call today I realised that in certain lights my eyebrows are vanishing because they are going grey. My hair is sort of honey brown, also going grey with no colour added. So I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to turn into an old lady with drawn on eyebrows. But I can see that greyer eyebrows than hair is not a great look. Any advice?

My eyebrows are very light and almost disappear when left naturally. I get them tinted each month a very light brown which keeps them looking natural but gives them some colour.

Agree with pp, get them tinted!

I like Benefit Gimme Brow, I find it easy to use and natural-looking and it covers grey brow hairs. It doesn't go on in a dense block, it''s subtle.

Ooh tinted is a good idea. I don't colour my hair though so still worried about that contrast. I'll try it though.

I bought something called Dybrow from Amazon. It was about £5. I use it every month or so and it makes my eyebrows visible again.

Get them tinted, go to a salon at first so you get an idea of how it works. The diy sets are great though just don’t leave anything on for very long it’s much easier to do a few applications to achieve the right shade than it is to try to sort it out if you go too dark!

I started to get my eyebrows defined and tinted (HD brows) in a salon 3 months ago, and it has been a game changer. I have always had very light eyebrows, despite being brunette and felt like it wasn't making my face any favour.
It takes 20 min and £18 every month and 100% worth it.

I found brow tint disappeared quickly with just normal, gentle facewashing. Maybe it depends on the person, or the colour of brows, or how grey they are (as opposed to just being light) or maybe it has come on since I last had it done. Having seen all the comments here I'm inclined to try again!

I just use a brow gel, the tarte one is my fave at the minute
