New Idea for Brow Makeup

I found a great way of augmenting my eyebrows. Pencil/brow powder just did not work for me - so, after having looked at expensive products on the internet, I was inspired to try something else. I dotted my Revlon Colorstay eyeshadow (in taupe) on my eyebrows and gently blended it into my brows. It worked! Looked great, and what's more, lasted until I removed it with makeup remover, which is more than I can say for what I had used before.

I use Colorstay even more successfully for brows with a wet, sharp angled brush. Just as good or better than Brow Zings. If you really want a wax/powder kit, try the one by New York Colors, it's great, too. The wax is softer than that in the Benefit brow kit. I have also been thinking of mixing some hair gel or clear mascara (ELF is only a dollar at Kmart) with powdered eye pigments to make a tinted brow gel. If I try it, I'll post to let you know how it goes. I would love to make my morning routine faster with a quick swipe of gel.

I'm going to try this one. I have white hair and most pencils/mascara are just too dark, because my eyebrows are "salt-and-pepper." I have been using mascara up to now, as I have enough brows--they don't show up too well. I wish I could find gray mascara! Thanks...you have great ideas. CayC from FL
