Fisrt I'd like to say I'm sorry your mom is going through chemo, basically because of the side effects. However It may surely help! As for a good brow pencil, I use Avon Luxury Brow (I'm blonde) They have 4 shades, I think. I only have about a 1/4 of brows, and this verrry inexpensive pencil stays on all day, sweat, water, and all. This Luxury pencil is a hard milled pencil that will need sharpening. I have tried the Avons Glimmerstick pencil, which is twist -up, and does NOT stay on skin well at all. I recommend a hard pencil...I have tried expensive designer brands, as well as marker type that cost much more, and I return to Avon Luxury Brow pencil. I get mine at a local flee market for $2. I know..sounds crazy, but designer names are nothing more than Names! Hoping the best for your mom...and you are a sweetheart to look after her!!

Thank you all for your suggestions and well wishes. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my question. For anyone who has gone through Chemo or have had a loved one go through it, the stress is so great we need to go what we can to make life as normal as we can.
Blessings

I too have lost my eyebrows and eyelashes due to chemo.
On Saturday I received a Benefit order from HSN. It had mascara which I haven't tried yet, but also a Gimme Brow. It's a gel. I tired it on Saturday night. It's a pretty good product. It's about $14. I liked the results.

I would look at Doll 10 here at QVC as the founder had cancer and made this brow product with that in mind. Sorry about your mother and I hope everything works out for her.

This is what I use:I swear by it! It has a kind of color and paste in it with tiny little hairs. I wear a dirty blonde wig but have darker eyebrows. I buy the lightest color because (like everyhing) it always looks darker. Don't get a real dark color. You can also get it at a lot of places. It runs between $20-$24 but it lasts a few months and is worth it. It is waterproof. I'd list the places but don't want to get deleted.......
I get compliments on how I look younger than 70. I say, "Smoke and mirrors" because it is a lot about makeup. I read, young people have the same color skin all over their face, their brows are usually fuller (don't makes your skinny, things like that.

tebsr38--so sorry about your moms recurrence!! boy, she is my hero and to have you there to help is wonderful!!
when i lost my brows and hair to chemo , i went to a look great, feel better class at the hospital and was given a goodie bad with IT brand eyebrow pencil--it was the best!! and i got really good at drawing on my brows with it. I also made sure that the brow area was dry and did not have any oil from skincare on it. maybe just a dusting of powder foundation or concealer over top. that way the brow pencil with go on smooth and not wear away. then i swept some clear mascara over the whole thing and it was there all day. i NEVER go out without my brows on, to this day.
good luck to you both!!!
