Shanus always gives great beauty advice. I always look for her response first on beauty posts.

@mcducky @SurferWife You both warmed my heart on this very cold NC morning.

I always welcome questions. Just page me.

You're awesome like that, always willing to share your expertise with others!

I did try the brow tip from @Shanus and it is awesome!

I use Lancome lash primer so it is at hand anyway, doesn't take but seconds to swipe thru brows as well as lashes, and wow, what a difference. Makes a smooth base for brow powder and gel, no dark spots where you inadvertently apply too much pressure or product.

Re: Brows. About a year ago, my once thick, all dark brows, began sprouting a few grey hairs. I've been dying them w/ JUST FOR MEN (the one for beards and mustaches). I use a combo of equal parts Blonde and Lt. Brown...it comes out a lot darker than it looks in the picture on the box. You need to mix less than a thumbnail amount of each and the boxes last forever. The tubes come with a cap to keep them closed tightly. It stays on for 5 minutes.

The grey hairs are covered and the "dye" seems to make the brow hairs appear thicker and find little hairs you didn't know you had.

This is a question about the Just for Men for beards --- since I have really sensitive skin, do you think this would bother me to use on my eyebrows? Also, if not, are there any specific tips you could give me regarding how to use it for eyebrows? Thank you!!

@AngelPuppy1 You only leave it on 5 minutes...so maybe try 3 minutes the first time. You can always do it again in a day or two if if it darken enough or cover. I use a spoolie instead of the huge brush they include for beards. Just remember to use a shade lighter than what appears on the box. With my dark brows, Blonde and Lt. Brown (mixed equally) in enclosed plastic tray works. Only squeeze out a very tiny amt. of color and the other "deveolper". I also have wet cotton pads waiting when time's up so I can wipe the color off each brow. I also keep several q tips at hand to wipe any dye that seems to go too far beyond my brow shape.

The first time I was a bit timid, but after that, no issues.

Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones.
