Well I am so glad I bought the Benefit eyebrow pencil yesterday as a back up to the one I was using because this morning with one eyebrow done, my pencil was done!  I have only had it about 4-6 weeks at most and don't wear makeup everyday.  Can't imagine how fast I'd go through it if I used it every day!

 

So now to find a drugstore pencil that if I go through it that fast, it won't cost so much to replace it.  I do not want to be paying $24 every 4-6 weeks for an eyebrow pencil! 

 

I want a pencil, not a pen or a pomade type product.  Pencils work best for me. 

 

Anyone have any suggestions of drugstore brand that you like?

E.L.F works for me, and also Wet & Wild.   I find them equal to the pricey brands on the TV channels.

Re: Drugstore Eyebrow Pencil

I use the one called Gimme Brows.  It has little hairs in it and it's more of a cream waxy colored.

 

It lasts a long time.  I use number one or two.

 

Yesterday I took my 2 teenage granddaughters to Ulta.  That's their favorite place to go.

 

It doesn't take long to run up a bill over $100.

 

Does anyone else use it?

Is it different from the pencil or are they the same?

I like the Ulta brand. The auburn shade works for my red hair.

Re: Drugstore Eyebrow Pencil

Did you guys see the brows Chrissy Teagen had her eyebrows transplanted?

https://www.usmagazine.com/stylish/news/chrissy-teigen-reveals-she-had-eyebrow-transplant-surgery/

 

They take the hairs from the back of her neck hairline and form a large, bushy eyebrow.

 

But when you look at them, they look drawn on to me.  It looks like the pencil used is lighter than the hairs.

 

I also don't like the way they don't have a shape...just straight across.

 

Im a firm believer more like "to each his own".

 

But if I'm honest, I think she should request a partial refund.🙃

I've been using Maybelline Brow Precise Micro Brow Pencil.  I shade underneath it with the thicker ELF $2. eyebrow pencil.   I only wear makeup 3 or 4 days per week so I'm not sure how long it lasts.  None of the skinny pencils last very long also if you twist it up too much they break off easily.

Ulta works well for me, I have issues with brow products pulling red on me, so the color is what's important for me, Needs to be very ashy, and stay that way.
