Help with brow definition

I’m 46 and eyebrows have got lighter. I do have them waxed now and again but not tinted as every time they look way too dark and stupid.
They are not grey but they have got lighter. I’ve looked in the shops and many of the products are wither too dark or too orangey brown. Also I can’t try any on, there are no testers, and have already wasted money on things only to get them home and the colour is wrong.

Can anyone suggest anything that could help me subtly define them in the right natural colour? I find myself studying everyone’s else’s brows who mostly all seem to have the perfect shade..

Hi @Littlemiss74 - what colour is your hair? What are you aiming for shade wise?

I have dark (but not black) brows that fade out and a lot of products are too heavy or dark for me, especially as I just want a natural, slightly fuller look rather than very structured/drawn brows. I use Benefit Precisely My Brow in 4.5 (neutral deep brown), very light strokes and it works well to fill and define but is subtle. You can see some examples of the shades on this listing.

I bought this online but I’ve used other Benefit brow products in the past so felt confident I could find a suitable shade, and looked at lots of swatches and videos to help me choose.

The Anastasia Beverly Hills pencil gets recommended a lot too, although I’ve never tried it.

@wonderspread that is the exact product and shade that I use! It's such a neutral brown it's great.

I have blonde hair and I like my brows to be a bit darker than my hair (I know a lot of people don't!) but it doesn't feel too much.

Pic attached OP to give you an idea of shade
