How To Choose Eyebrow Pencils
An eyebrow pencil gives your brows a well-defined shape and makes them appear uniform. If your eyebrows are very thin or very pale, eyebrow pencils help in giving them the perfect contour that brings the focus of the onlooker to your eyes. It also lends a vibrant touch to your face, making your face look more expressive and bright. Eyebrow pencils are available in different brands, colors and types. So, it is necessary that you understand how to choose the right eyebrow pencil for yourself. An eyebrow pencil that does not go well with your face might make you look like a frowning mask or give you the appearance of an ugly mannequin. Learn these quick tips that will help you to pick the right eyebrow pencil for yourself and do full justice to the beauty of your face.
How to Buy Eyebrow Pencils
First decide which brand of eyebrow pencil you would like to go for. There are various options for you to choose from. Don’t go for cheap brands, as you might easily get allergic to them. Pick a good brand that you trust.
Decide if you would like to go for a wooded pencil or a twist-up eyebrow pencil. Generally wooded pencils provide you a sharp point and hence fine lines. The twist-up pencils glide more easily and come with a brush.
Next see that the tip of the eyebrow pencil is not very hard and has a dry finish. It is difficult to draw fine strokes with a hard pencil. Continuous strokes with a hard pencil will make your eyebrows look very unnatural.
Eyebrow pencils come in different colors. Choose a one that is closest in color to the color of your hair. Pick a soft black pencil if you have dark black hair. Ask the salesperson to guide you, if necessary.
Some bold colors are also available in the market (like metallic green, purple and sapphire). You can try them if you have a bohemian sense of dressing and generally prefer the unconventional look. Avoid otherwise.
You can buy an eyebrow pencil that has a shimmering effect or simply buy a gold eyebrow pencil. This will accentuate your brows during the night and make them ideal for parties.
You can also choose a long lasting or waterproof eyebrow pencil, if you don’t find time for frequent touch-up. Try eyebrow pencils from Christian Dior. They sometimes last for 2-3 days.
