Beautiful brows

[@tinawebb1502]

So what do you suggest if you have faded microbladed brows that faded to gray. I don't have any natural brows due to heath conditions.

[@richardwright9292]

Asian beauty brands are great for finding cool-toned lighter brow products (especially pencils). Shades called 'soft black', 'grey black', or 'grey brown' are usually good options. If you can still find them, Nabla pencils in 'Neptune' and Zoeva pencil in 'asphalt' are good options for medium-dark hair colours.

Same. Always too warm. I like the ABH brow wiz in granite.

Me too! I have at least 20 pencils and none of them are right. Too orange, too dark. And the ink-like ones don’t actually mimic individual hairs. They just release a blob of color. I’m 41 and still haven’t found any that work. Thank you for these tips.

[@JG-jq4dg]

The matching of your lip colour to the background is spot on. I love your attention to detail. Very satisfying and doesn’t go unnoticed!

[@JG-jq4dg]

Also great brow advice, as always. For anyone with dark brown hair wanting a single product that doesn’t need layering/mixing, I’m a big fan of the tone of the maybelline tattoo brow in 07 black/brown (with an angled brush, the included wand is a nightmare). It’s neutral/leaning cool.

[@SpiralMystic]

I wonder if she did match them? I thought she chose a background that matched her tones, and the lipstick just fits because of course she’s using one in her tones. Either way - beautiful harmony.

[@scoutgordon]

That was👊🏾👍🏾. My ride or die brow products are the NYX micro brow pencil in Espresso & Ash Brown. Then, layer with Brunette, Ash Brown, or Espresso. As an African -American, it's hard to find the balance for a warmth or coolness that doesn't go overboard.

I use a no colour nyx brow stick it product first, see how much it boosts my cool toned mousey brown brows and then use the tint pen to fill in the rest. It also oxides and bleeds a tiny bit so using less is better.

[@triciag3311]

I JUST bought that NYX brow tint pen and it is my new holy grail. I basically have no tails on my brows and I hate it. The taupe is a perfect match for my brows and it looks so natural when I draw the tails in. I've tried many, many products in my 40ish years of wear makeup (and naturally having sparse brows), and this is hands down the best I've ever used. This is a great video!

Nyx’s shade black is perfect for my hair. It’s hard to find a black that’s not warm. I need one that’s cool toned. Nyx always does a cool toned, soft black. I have the black brow pen, brow pencil, and brow glue 😂 I love it!

[@1000OtherFoxes]

How can it bee cool and warm?

[@thepicklegambit]

I have medium cool tone brown brows, and I’ve been using the NYX regular micro brow pencil in the shade 05.5 Cool Ash Brown and I’d say, at least for me, that it seems like a true cool tone. I do not find that it leans warm or turns warm later in the day. Perhaps because I use the Schwarzkopf Got2B hair glue to set it that maybe it keeps my brows from ever getting oily or running the color, but it still seems like a true cool ash brown to me. I don’t think the color came out until last year when I first purchased it, and Amazon still labels it a “new” color. But I’d recommend it for those looking for a cool tone brown.

[@cynthiakoch3122]

You are adorable & intelligent & you understand color & tone & shades. Keeper! 42 years as stylist & salon owner I am amazed how many ppl do not understand color/tone at all. It is a gift.

[@SyntheticGoth]

My hair is naturally warm toned dark brown, while my eyebrows are an ashy black so a lot of shades look way too warm and bold. I always opt for drier pencils in lieu of the softer formulas because they often have an ashier color that matches best. I love that NYX pen though and I will probably pick that up to experiment with. These videos are answering the important questions! 👌🏻❤️

[@elizabetha.morris6661]

[@sarisahana]

Yes thank you I have been struggling with this, the specificity of your videos is simply unmatched 🙌

[@GabiBrooks]

My favorite eyebrow thing eveeeer is to apply Nyx eyeshadow primer all over the eyebrow hairs- except the inner corner, cause I don't want them to be very intense there- wait a couple mins, then use my normal powder. Dude! It fills them up more sparsely (as in intense but the light color of the primer sticks out here and there and balances it out and looks natural- I guess it's because the primer neutralizes the redness from the brown powder- and it stays matte all day. Aand, compared to soap, the hairs don't fall down throughout the day. Dunno how you do it Alex, but soaps or gels didn't work for me last summer. As soon as I went outside and sweat a bit it became a mess...but no more. I swear this trick I tried changed the game for me! 😁 Edit: it's important to blend the primer with your fingers and really press it into the hairs after applying it cause otherwise it's too thick on the eyebrows and it looks as if they have a white ish contour 😂 Edit two: forgot a very important detail: brush the hairs upwards after applying the powder. Everything stays up afterwards.

I actually use the Nyx lift-n-snatch brow pen in gray black on BOTH my brow & eyeliner.

Also, that is the only liquid product that lasts forever, every other type of liquid brow/liner product seems to dry out after a couple of week, but the Nyx one lasts forever. I also use the benefit brow gel in gray for my brow just by itself. It's one of the few brow gel that even comes in gray tone. That particular color and gel is the only one that seems to look natural on my brow.

If you're looking for a cool toned brow pencil, you may want to try the CoverGirl Micro-Fine and Define brow pencil. I use the shade Soft Brown, and it's the perfect Medium Ash Brown colour (I was previously using the Anastasia Brow Wiz in Medium Brown). I wouldn't describe the CoverGirl as a "soft" brown. It's actually darker than that, but that's what they call it. They do have a darker brown shade, but since you don't want it too dark, you may be quite happy with the Soft Brown. My neice has dark brown brows, and she really likes the Soft Brown shade. Anyway, just thought I'd mention it. It's great drug store brow pencil option.

[@culturecrashAL]

Depending on your hair color and brow density, part of what gives brows the appearance of fullness/opacity is not the brow hairs themselves, it's the shadows they cast on the skin underneath them. So IME, for a naturalish look, the best "soft fill" (the kind of product you spread throughout the whole brow area, not the kind where you're sketching in individual "hairs") is a hue that's a shadowy sheer warm black or grey, maybe with just a hint of the color of your hair or skin. I have light pinky-cool skin and generally wackadoo candy-colored hair, so my go-to is just a sheer warm black which matches my lashes (okay fine, and also my copious roots). But even if you're blonde or ginger, you might be happier with a soft-fill color that's WAY more desaturated than the usual.

I have the opposite problem, I have very light ginger hair and almost non-existent eyebrows so every reddish shade is too dark on me, and every light shade is too cool-toned. I feel like there's definitely been an improvement with cool-toned products becoming more widely available over the years, though (if we compare it to let's say the 2000s). I think the solution should be making brow products the same way the shades for foundation are made - make it a cool/warm + light/dark scale.

[@teri2466]

If you have brows like mine - white sprinkled amongst the dark brown - you might try a tinted gel (they come with spoolie applicators). After trying many, I like NYX Thick It in cool ash brown, AOA/PawPaw in taupe (blonde next time), Maybelline Express Brow in blonde & Elf Wow Brow in taupe. Too warm - NYX brow glue. I had tried a couple higher end brands, but they didn't have the right colors or didn't hold as well. My goal is to darken the white a bit, so they blend in with the brown. I had tried brow powder & pomade from Anastasia BH, which are excellent products, but I don't have as much control with them & they don't cover the white for as long a time as the gels. The white hair doesn't take dye well, so that's out. 😊

NARS single shadow in Bali on an angled liner brush (I use an angled paint brush from the craft store) = best thing for my brows

Okay I neeed help. I have medium brorn hair, when I use a dark blonde its green. When I use a medium brown its red, when I use a dark brown, is chunky and won't blend. My natural brows are very dark brown. Powders dont hold, pencils barley last, hardly blend and creams dont blend. What do I do?????

wow I actually need an assessment , like what color am I supposed to make my eyebrows- im naturally a redhead with blonde eyebrows but I’ve dyed my hair brown/ black/ and now the bottom of my hair is brown: and the top half is red/brown so what color should I use? (usually i use black eyeshadow with a liner brush lol don’t judge me)

You definitely want to match your hair. You could think of the shades as the two shades you have going on with your hair right now. So maybe try a warmer, almost red toned pencil or powder as your base color and then finish with a brown product like a tinted brow gel or brow pen.
