I second getting your thyroid checked. I have to use a brow powder now instead of pencils. I don't have the patience, either!

I had my brows done in 2003 and loved it but it doesn't last forever. It cost $200 which was so affordable but I don't live in the state where I had it done and now I am getting quotes of $400 and up. I would love to find a brow powder so can you please tell me the one you are using? I would appreciate it.

I have very sparse brows but the hair that I have is jet black. I pencil my brows in daily but never have to draw 200 eyebrow hair strokes! Whats that all about? I use my YBF eyebrow pencil and off I go.

I've always had light blonde eyebrows, they're barely noticeable.

I have sparse brows, and no brow after the arch (from over tweezing, not thyroid). I purchase the It Build a Brow in the pot & have been using it for about a week. It looks natural & does not budge, whereas with a pencil I had to reapply at least once a day. I would suggest trying it.

I have think brows also from tweezing. Like you, I just purchased the new IT Build a Brow in the pot and its amazing!!!!! It looks natural and like Amaly said, it doesn't budge. You never have to touch it up, its the best brow product that I have ever used!!!

Who has had their eyebrows tatooed?

Now I'm intrigued ...... but, like plastic surgery .... you better go to someone reputable! {#emotions_dlg.unsure}

I use Joan Rivers Great Hair Day powder. I use the same one I use on my hair. Haven't tried the brow version since I already have the one for hair and it works perfectly on my brows. It stays on until I wash my face. If I sleep in my make up, it's still on the next morning. I even use it on and around my lashes occasionally.

I have a friend who wears eyebrow "wigs." They look very natural. She glues them on every day.

I use a brow powder from Merle Norman. It goes on with a stiff brush, and I think it looks very nice. I think Joan Rivers' hair fill-in powder would be about the same thing.


ITA....about the Merle Norman brow powder and I can say that with confidence because I was a beauty advisor for them for twelve years. We sold this product to many people over and over again....it works very well. Smiley Happy

I buy my RapidLash from Drugstore.com or Amazon. It has really worked for me.

My brows need some help and Smashbox powder pencil in taupe is super. It's two ended with a gel on the other side. A powder pencil is easy to apply and mistakes are not noticeable. I also use Clinique cake powder, which is almost as good. Lastly, I have a YBF that I sometimes finish up with, if I want a stronger brow.
