What does a brow pencil do?
An eyebrow pencil is used to enhance the appearance of your eyebrows by helping to define and shape. Whether you have sparse brows, or just need to enhance your natural brow shape, a brow pencil can help with a subtle look, natural look or bold statement.
How do I choose an eyebrow pencil color?
When choosing the right shade of brow pencil, consider your hair color, skin tone, and eye color. A good rule of thumb is your eyebrow color should be one to two shades darker if you have lighter hair, and one to two shades lighter if you have darker hair. Blondes should choose taupe shades and brunettes should go with light and medium shades.
Will using a brow pencil make my eyebrows look unnatural?
Using a brow pencil can help define and fill in your eyebrows, but it's important to use a light hand and blend well to avoid a drawn-on or unnatural look. It's also important to choose a shade that matches your natural brow color to create a natural-looking finish. With practice and the right technique, you can achieve natural-looking brows with a brow pencil.
How do I use the e.l.f. Instant Lift brow pencil?
Start by brushing your eyebrows in the direction of their natural growth with a spoolie brush. Then, gently fill in any sparse areas with the pencil using light, feathery strokes, and blend with the spoolie for a natural look. Remember to choose a color that matches your natural brow hair for the best result.

Great product!
I wasn't sure if I was going to like this or not but for two dollars I figured why not! I am glad I did! The pencil is not too hard, not too soft! It's perfect! I purchased the color light taupe and it's perfect for my light brown hair. The spookiest is also great too! The photo below shows a comparison to the elf essential spoolie and they are pretty much identical, the attached spoolie might be a tad rougher but I don't notice a difference. What I like best is the penicil is very thin so you can get perfect small hair like strokes. If you are on the fence about this product I would say just go head and try it! For 2 dollars you won't regret it! :) hope this helps!

Alright...I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could
I bought this brow pencil in the neutral brown shade and I'm not unhappy or too happy with it. Pros: Color is nice not too waxy convenient size (fits well in hand) great precision fast and easy to use does the job well enough Cons: brush bristles are really rough and rigid the pencil "lead" constantly falls out there is only about 2 inches of the pencil so it will not last you too long It does the job but it's not that amazing (at all). I'd recommend it to someone who might be new to makeup but I probably will not purchase again

Doesn't stay when gel is applied
This pencil went on really easy and made my brows look great. It was lighter than what I am use to. My only problem with this pencil is that when I applied the laminating gel, it didn't stay

New blonde colour isn't blonde anymore
I love this eyebrow pencil it's perfect. The blonde colour matches my eye brow perfectly. This is my favourite eye brow pencil I have used by far! I went to get a new one as I needed another one and the new blonde pencil isn't blonde anymore, it is way darker than the one I had previously. Very disappointed as it was a perfect match for me and my blonde hair, best colour I have used by far. I had to return the one I ordered because it looks brown and that won't work for me. Please please bring back the old blonde colour for us blondies so we can use this product again. Going to have to find a new pencil to use unfortunately.

Not for me
I do not really like this product, it might work great for other people but it’s not for me. The texture is very sticky and it’s thick, also it was white and it shows when i put it on. It might work great for others just not for me, the money value and packaging are good.

Fill and blend
This is cool and makes filling and sculpting your eyebrows easier. It comes in different shades from black to brown and some in between. It is priced reasonably for a duo ended product ranging from $3-5 USD and you can find it at many stores including target, Walmart or pharmacies like Walgreens. I like that the pencil colors in while the spoolie brush helps to blend. Win-Win!

Affordable product
I’m honestly so impressed with the e.l.f. Instant Lift Brow Pencil! For the price, it completely overdelivers. The formula is smooth, easy to apply, and gives just the right amount of pigment without being too harsh. It makes shaping and filling in my brows super quick—even on busy mornings. The spoolie on the end is a great bonus for blending and brushing hairs into place, and I love that it gives a natural, lifted look without smudging or fading throughout the day. Whether you're going for soft and subtle or bold and defined, this pencil gets the job done. It’s a true staple in my makeup bag—and at this price point, it’s an absolute steal. Highly recommend!

I really enjoy how effortless this brow pencil is to use. The pigment is buildable, and the spoolie on the other end is super convenient for blending. It defines brows beautifully, though the formula could last a little longer. Still, great for everyday makeup.

Why did you do away with the grey brow shade? I have grey hair and the black shade is too dark. I do not want brown eyebrows with grey hair. I was able to purchase grey at Target, now it is no longer available. This is ageist! Extremely disappointing.

What colors do you use for dirty strawberry blonde with silver gray hair and brows? I have been mixing light brown, blonde and a auburn powder. Still not really right. And takes forever.

Can this pencil be sharpened? It has a point when initially opened but is very dull and blunted after initial use
