My sparse, clear and oily eyebrows thank you in advance (info in the comments)
Hey ya’ll! I’m having eyebrow problems. They’ve never been much to talk about to begin with but as I’ve gotten older (about to turn 36) and had babies they have gotten lighter and more and more sparse. I don’t pluck and never have over plucked.
I need a good thickening and darkening product for my brows that won’t budge and I’d love a drugstore brand because I cant rely on myself to make it to ulta when I run out and I’m cheap. My brows are pretty oily so I struggle with finding a product that will stay put all day so I need that too. Thanks in advance!
[NYX Eyebrow Gel](https://www.ulta.com/eyebrow-gel?productId=xlsImpprod10881220) One of my personal favorites! It’s a Makeup Forever Aqua Brow dupe. Squeeze a tiny bit out (a little really goes a long way with this product) and apply with an angled eyebrow brush.
[Makeup Obsession Brow Pomade ](https://www.target.com/p/makeup-obsession-brow-pomade-3-5oz/-/A-76614379) I am currently using this product and it’s great.
[ELF Lock on Liner Brow Cream](https://www.ulta.com/lock-on-liner-brow-cream?productId=xlsImpprod15481057)
[Milani Weekend Brow Pen](https://www.ulta.com/weekend-brow-pen?productId=pimprod2016622) This is a brow pen used to achieve a microbladed look. It does take a little more time to apply and a steady hand though!
I tried to list some more pigmented products rather than just a pencil. I have very thin eyebrows, so prefer less “natural look” products.
I very much seccond the NYX brow gel recommendation! It gives you a lot of control with a good angled brush.
It is expensive at initial outlay and (for US) has to be ordered online, but I also highly recommend the Shu Uemura Hard Formula 9 brow pencil. A single pencil lasts a very long time—some people on Reddit say they have used theirs daily for years and still not needed to repurchase—and the results look incredibly natural, so I find the price tag very justifiable and you do not need to worry about frequent replacement.
