Brown eyebrow pencil
To give expression to the eyebrows and emphasize the eyes, you need an eyebrow pencil. It is convenient to use, it takes up little space in a cosmetic bag, it is applied to the eyebrow area without any problems and is able to stay on the hairs and on the skin throughout the day. The most popular are eyebrow pencils of all kinds of brown shades.
You will learn how to choose the right eyebrow pencil tone from the following video.
Among the many options offered on the beauty market, you should choose those that have a hard lead and a more powdery finish than oil ones, which after a couple of hours will lose their clear contour and spread.
In the event that you did not pay attention to this aspect and nevertheless purchased a brown pencil with a soft lead, then it must first be cooled to avoid unpleasant surprises.
The second important aspect when choosing a product is its color. It is important to choose such a tone that it advantageously emphasizes your eyebrows, while naturally coloring the hairs and the space free from them on the skin, but in no case attracts too much attention to itself and does not stand out against the background of all makeup.
Features of choice
The right shade of any cosmetic product, including an eyebrow pencil, can emphasize your dignity, make you younger, and make your makeup neater.If you do not take into account your color type when choosing the tone of a cosmetic product, then even the most attractive facial features can lose their charm.
Basically, eyebrow pencil manufacturers offer the following colors: charcoal, graphite, taupe, brown, cool ash brown, light.
But in reality, not everything is so simple: each brand has many shades and undertones that are not similar to each other, which must be carefully selected exactly for your eyebrows.
To still choose your ideal pencil, you must follow these guidelines:
- To determine the tone of a brown eyebrow pencil, look at the color of your hair. It is better for blondes to color them one or two shades darker than curls. Brunettes, on the other hand, can pick up a pencil tone to match the hair or a little lighter, but in no case use black, as such eyebrows will inevitably add age to you, but the use of a dark brown shade is not forbidden.
- If you are already an expert in eyebrow coloring and this process does not take you more than five minutes, then you can complicate your task a little and use two shades at once. This way you can create a more voluminous gradient eyebrow. But it is important to remember that both shades of brown should be as similar as possible to each other.
- If you cannot decide on the shade or the density of the stylus you need, then we recommend that you go to a cosmetic store and take a few swatches of the products you like, and while they are being adopted on the skin, you can read the reviews of already experienced users.
Review of the best
Faberlic
Faberlic presents a double-sided brown pencil, on one side of which there is a retractable coloring rod that does not require sharpening, and on the other side there is a rather convenient tapered pointed sponge, which is convenient for blending paint and erasing unnatural clear boundaries.
This pencil comes in 3 shades of brown, the most popular of which is "excellent brown". With it, you can easily draw thin lines imitating hairs, since the rod itself is quite hard, and its thickness is about 2 millimeters.
Relouis
One of the most popular brown pencils currently on the cosmetic market is from this brand. The lead is quite soft, but it does not have an oily texture and does not spread. Its finish is more likely to be attributed to matte powder, due to which it is quite easy to apply it on the hairs and it looks very natural on the skin.
This brown pencil is also double-sided: on the one hand, there is a standard rod that requires sharpening, and on the other, an elastic pile brush for combing eyebrows.
Waterproof by Avon
Really decent product at a low price. The company offers as many as 11 shades, 7 of which are brown. On one side of the pencil there is a sharpening rod, and on the other side there is an elastic brush for combing eyebrows. With the help of a solid stylus, it is very convenient to draw single strokes and it is no less convenient to completely tone the skin. The brush can be used not only for combing and styling hairs, but also for removing excess color pigment.
The waterproof base guarantees a stable make-up, the eyebrow will not be smudged and will not flow in case of heat, moisture and water ingress.Due to this, you can safely take a pencil with you on vacation to hot countries and the sea and replace it with other cosmetics that are already not included in your suitcase. At the same time, to remove pigment from the eyebrows, it is not necessary to use a two-phase oil remedy; you can get by with ordinary make-up remover wipes.
Eveline "Professional Stylist"
This brown pencil features a retractable lead that does not need constant sharpening. Its waxy texture is quickly fixed on the skin and remains a uniform monochromatic coating.
The texture of the lead is not the hardest, but this pencil is just on hand, so it is very convenient to shade it and the finish looks very natural.
Oriflame
This company offers a very economical pencil, presented in only two brown shades, due to which it will be quite difficult to choose the right tone for yourself. When applied, the shades do not look bright and pretentious, but rather muted and matte, which gives the makeup a natural look.
On the cap of the pencil is a brush that can be used both for shading the lead, and for correcting the shape of the eyebrows and styling them.
