What eyebrow pencil?

My favourite eyebrow pencil has been discontinued. I recently bought a Natio one because the colour is perfect for me, but it it too soft and I find it very hard to control getting it on without looking like a drag queen. Can someone recommend a nice tawny/light brown eyebrow pencil that not too soft. I would rather it be too hard than too soft actually. I find a lot of brown pencils are too red/golden for me so a lighter colour is better. I also have a very limited budget, so something that isn’t too exxy would be good.

    Goodluck with your shopping quest Makeup Maven! I also do what StayC suggests and feather in an eyeshadow for a soft look just make sure its not a shimmery one like I did once, not a good look, lol.

    I don’t use one as I find that my brows just look too heavy and dark, Camilla Bell I’m not, instead I apply a brown shadow with an angled brush. I do have a Stilla brow powder but it’s a little dark so I usually use a Clinique shadow. I do have quite dark brows though so it means treating them very differently to blonde or practically non-existant brows.

    I stuffed up with my post above, I do have one Bourjois, but the blonde and brown ones are actually Prestige liners, they are retractable, and slightly angled but make the job of filling in sparse brows a breeze 🙂

    I actually use the Mirenesse 24Hr Brow Lift and Shape Mascara. It comes packaged exactly like a mascara and is a neutral brown colour that would match most eyebrow colours. It fills in gaps beautifully, it dries to keep brows perfectly shaped and sometimes when I’m sporting the natural look, I use it on my lashes. It makes them stand out slightly more than normal.

    I swear by Loreal’s Brow Stylist, I have it in Dark brown. You can get it in lighter colours to, its soft and natural! It comes with a brow brush, the pencil and tweezers.

    I’m loving a loreal brow stylist 3 in 1 brow tool in blonde at the moment. Its a great soft colour (like a taupe) but there are 2 other shades I know of in the range too so you might find that handy to try. I was lucky to buy mine in priceline on sale for $6 which was a bargain, wish I had bought 2!
