It's time for me to revisit this topic. Maybe you all can help. I need suggestions for what you consider the best brow fiber/gel to help sparse brows.  I am 63 and it looks like I need a Taupe color but am still stumped on the product. I had been using Tarte products but it had long dried out. Smiley Sad   Still love the brush.

Im 73 and my brows were never thick to begin with.  Now they are thinner than ever.  

 

Lately I have been using ELF wax eyebrow pencil that I got on Amazon.  I have their blonde color, which is a medium taupe.  I have to be careful not to get too much on or my brows will be dark.  If I get them too dark I take a qtip and light rub some off.  Its not the best but its the best I have ever found.

I like IT universal eye brow pencil. But I am using Benefit #3 pencil that I really like. Got that one color matched to me at the Brow Bar in Macys.

I am 66, I like an ELF product also but a different one. Mine is a clear gel on one side of the app, put that on first to get them in place, then other side of the app is a spoolie with color and just shape the brows with that after the gel, I use the Light shade as well, they run dark.

I use the It cosmetics universal pencil. I have tried several different brands, and this one works best for me.

I have thought about getting the microblading, I think its called, but its not cheap and its something you have to keep up.

Anastasia Dip Brow. And their brow brush also.

Ulta,

 

Took me a little practice, so easy to use too much.

Barely dip brush, and I do mean barely.

Excellent product. Holds up really well.

I loved the Models Prefer universal taupe (their only color). Then it disappeared from QVC, and I found Wet 'n Wild's taupe pencil, which I used for years. Now, that LONG pencil has been discontinued, but some dollar stores are selling them, so I have a few of those.

Meanwhile, I found out (from someone here--Thank you!) that YBF (on the "other channel" lol) is the reincarnation of the old Models Prefer brand, and the presenter even said so in the online video, so I picked up the duo. Sure enough, it's the same formula. In fact, other than YBF having a red barrel (MP's was silver), it's exactly the same.


The pain they have cost us, the evils that never happened.

I just bought the new Urban Decay Brow Blade and love it. I am 69 and still have very nice brows. However, the tail on my left brow is barely there. This product gives the option of using both the ink or the pencil side. Can also use both together. I have blonde highlighted hair and was matched at Sephora with Dark Drapes. It's a beautiful match for my brows. This might be my favorite brow product that I have ever purchased.

i am a big fan of the clinique superfine brow pencil. it's the best i have found to put my "tails" on. for the thicker part of my brown i am using doll 10 now, or sometimes the ybf, but the clinique is the best for the tails.
