What do you all prefer for filling in your eyebrows? I currently use a pencil for mine and I really like it but am thinking if switching it up. Does powder give it a more natural look? What are your recommendations for eyebrow pencils and powders? I currently use Maybelline's Define A Brow.

I prefer powder myself. Its a more natural look, and way easier. With the pencil I feel like it ives a perfect stenciled look. I'm naturally blonde and I fill my brows in everyday with the "bennefit- brow zings". I love this product! Matches perfectly, goes on super fast and easy, and lasts all day. Its a tinted powder and a tinted gel pallete. Love it!

I love these two powders: Anastasia Brow Powder Duo and Milani Brow Fix Kit. Anastasia is high end , but I personally think that the Milani is a dupe... just my opinion :)
I think the powder looks much more natural than pencils.
I hope this helps!

Neither! I use Mufe's Aqua brow brow corrector in 10, blonde to fill in my brows. This is the consistency of concealer or a cream liner, but it dries to a very powdery natural finish. And sometimes I go over this with a little bit of powder, but very rarely. Sometimes I will switch it up and I'll use powder though, & I don't really like to use pencil at all because since I don't have a lot of hair on my eyebrows & what hair I do have is really light blonde and hardly viseable, so pencil's are just too waxy & I have trouble getting them to work on my brows because they barely show up on just skin, and personally I don't like the look of pencil. But because I am a blonde the coloring for eyebrow powders in the stores are usually either too dark for me, or too red toned, so I just use a nice matte light brown shadow from NYX & a slightly darker brown towards the tail-end of my brows. I also use a product by NYX to outline/shape my brows first and then fill them in with the aqua brow "brow corrector". The NYX product is their eyebrow marker in the darker color, (it only comes in two shades & the lighter one seemed to be too red for me) this also dries to a very powdery natural finish, and I love that it's literally a felt tip marker- so it really draws wayyy cleaner lines than a pencil ever could- especially filling in the tail end of your brow. Just some other awesome products you should definitely try out other than just pencil and powder! :) xo.
