    I don't use pencils I prefer eyebrow powder by mac applying w/ mac eyebrow brush. It's a lot easier don't know of a sealer

    I always use the mac slanted eyebrow brush and use mac eyeshadow in Bark to fill them in, and i always brush them a bit with a clean mascara type wand/eyebrow brush after drawing them a bit and thenfilling them in some more and then brushing them again. I learned to do it this way after having my makeup done a lot by the Mac makeup artists... My eyebrows always turn out good after I do it this way...

    I stopped using pencils because it's looks too unnatural and "drawn".

    Here, i'm posting this part of a response that I made in another thread about foundation...but it still applies here:
    ---It also wouldn't hurt to start off with a primer, Philosophy makes a good one...so does Clinique (I think they call theirs a mattefying lotion or something) Also, if you are really worried about perspiration, finish off your makeup with Benefit Shelaq...it's a makeup sealant I have used a lot with stages with hot lights.---

    But I agree with the rest of the girls here, you should invest in a good quality eyebrow brush and some matching eyeshadow, and fill in/shape your brows that way...it will look much more polished and natural...and stay put better.

    I use Revlon's Mechanical Pencil and it NEVER rubs off its even hard to remove with soap and water. Give it a try.

    I use waterproof mascara but wipe off the wand a bunch so they don't look "Groucho". Benefit also makes a product called She-laque and it works really well too. Apply anywhere you don't want your cosmetics to budge.

    I use powder. I moisten the brush (MAC eyebrow brush) and use MAC eyeshadow in Omega (a medium brown but it darkens when applied moist).

    Use short, feathery strokes to simulate the way the hair grows.

    I use Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil in brown. It has a little brush at the end of it. I shape my eyebrows, apply short strokes with the pencil (not hard, or you get that drawn in look) and then rebrush the brows to make it look softer. I set them with powder afterwards so they don't come off!

    Been there tried pencils for extra brows! Lol.

    I was told to get non-oily pencils, and water proof. The thicker the pencil feels the longer lasting. I have yet to find one that stays, i sweat.

    So my best bet so far has been to buy a pencil form and melt the tip, apply while a tad warm Careful it's not too hot, and put it right on!

    Good luck,

    Pamela

    As a primer I use Mac Studio Stick N30...it matches my skin colour almost to a T. I then apply , with a slated eyebrow brush, Trucco High Brow Shadow. The three colours match any skin type, ,and with a touch of the concealer it stays on all night.
