I have always had eyebrows, full and nicely shaped; however, with age they are a little more sparce.  I don't like the way an eye shadow type products looks on them; some other products are not for me at my age.  I have decided the best thing for me to use in an eyebrown pencil to just fill in where needed.  What do you use?  Do you have any suggestions?

I only need a light swipe in the center of my brows and used to use a Benefit pencil. However a few years ago they re-did all their products and their latest version is a little too hard for me. I’m very happy with TheBalm’s brow pencil in Blonde. I’m fair with light brown/grayish hair.

I use the type that's like a mascara wand.  It gives just enough definition as well as covering the grey's that I'm starting to get.  I don't like my brows too dark or "drawn on" looking.

I use a pencil to fill in and then the Benefit Gemme Brow for an all over color.

Tried this recently and I really like it.  The sharpener is attached to the cap so you never need to hunt for it.  It does not break like those retractable ones.

What brand is like a mascara wand for brows?  I don't believe I've seen that brand.  Souinds like it would work good.

I've had great results from using Benefit Precisely My Brow Pencil. I have light blonde hair and the light #2 works well for me. What I like about it is it imparts color to brows and if you take your finger and lightly press down on brows after using pencil, it makes a more natural look -- same w/ using the spoolie end thing. I've just found using the finger works well --- the brow gal at Ulta did this when she was doing my brows. I am not adept at applying make up, but this works for me.
