Blond Eyebrow Pencils

Hi,

I've been blonde all my life and, even though my blonde hair now comes from a bottle, the color just suits me.

The problem I have is finding blonde eyebrow pencils. The lightest I usually see are medium brown (and believe me, I am always searching).

I know the color can't be too light or it won't show. On the other hand, I know my eyebrow color is supposed to match my hair color - more or less.

Are there any lighter blonde eyebrow pencils available anywhere?

Thanks for your help. I enjoy your blog and website. I love how you provide such personalized help to your readers.

Being dark-haired myself, I was really surprised when I went searching for blonde eyebrow pencils.

They are difficult to find. I guess being blonde isn't all fun.

Here are my picks arranged from the lightest to the darkest.

Physicians Formula Brow Tweez - Dark Blonde

This is a very light brown with a touch of gold. The pencil has a hard tip just right for shaping brows. The tip requires sharpening. Brow tweez has a clever 3-in-1 design. A typical (toothbrush-style) brow brush is on the removable cap which frees up the other end for stainless steel tweezers. They're pretty basic tweezers, so I would only use it in a pinch (ouch!). Also available in Light Brown and Dark Brown.

Almay Brow Defining Pencil 01 Dark Blonde

This color is slightly darker than Physicians Formula and has a hard, fine twist up tip - no sharpener required. The other end has a spiral brush for brow grooming (similar to a mascara wand). Also comes in Brunette and Dark Brown.

Rimmel Professional Eyebrow Pencil 002 Hazel

This color is a light medium brown. It has a softer tip and requires sharpening. The other end has the more traditional (toothbrush-style) brow grooming brush. Also comes in Dark Brown and Black.

Milani EasyBrow Natural Taupe

This is the darkest of the four. I would describe it as medium brown. It has a softer, fine twist up tip and a mascara-type spiral brush on other end. Also in Dark Brown.
