Does anyone here use a brow stamp and a stencil?  if so, do you like the results?

Didn't work for me at all (I have very dark brows) yet I've seen some influencers use them and they look nice. I'm not sure if they'd look stamped on in person.

Tried it a couple of times a few years back. Don't remember the brands I used. I never liked the look on me. Didn't feel it looked natural.

I really tried hard to do this.....bought kits a couple of times. I just could never get the hang of it. It looks like it'd be simple, but I found it very difficult to do. I gave up.

Thanks for the responses, I'll probably pass on trying them.

@TerryNJ I have not used a brow stamp or stencil, but have you tried something like the Benefit Mighty Fine Brow Pen? I have barely there aging eyebrows and really like this. I find it very easy to use. I use this and the use a small amount of Thrive brow gel and it really makes a difference for me. I hope you can find what you are looking for.

Re: Brow Question

@TerryNJ --I did and got very good results. Only it takes practice especially with stencils. I lost ALL my hair during chemo treatments. I looked like a ghost--pale skin, with 2 dark browns eyes, bald head, and no eyebrows or lashes for about 5 months. I LOOKED sick when I was not--just had cancer. So I drew on my brows and lined my eyes and put on some blush whenever I went out and wore a wig or pretty scarf on my head. Made all the difference. I got stencils that didn't have adhesive on them--so for me, it was hard to hold them in place and then try to color them in. Didn't have the cool things that are out there now. Even now, my brows are kind of wonky but I always put them on when I go out.

I had tried an older version of brow stencils years ago and found the results to be unnatural looking.  Taking the time to enhance one's brows with a pencil, pomade or with a shadow product lends itself to more of an attractive and natural look. I've recently tried Laura Geller's A691914 INKcredible Waterproof Brow Liner Duo and really like it. It's easy to use and depending on how much pressure I use, I can achieve the color intensity I want.  I have auburn hair and use the taupe color.
