Eyebrows are one of those beauty steps that can feel intimidating at first. Where do you start? How do you make them even? How do you avoid overdoing it? The truth is, perfect brows don’t have to be complicated. All you need is the right tool and a few insider hacks.

If you’re new to the brow game, here are some tips to help you master your look with a waterproof retractable pencil.

Hack 1: Follow Your Natural Shape

Instead of trying to create a whole new brow, work with what you already have. Use the pencil to lightly outline along the bottom of your brows first — this gives you a guide. From there, fill in upward with small, soft strokes. This keeps the look natural and avoids harsh, blocky brows.

Hack 2: Use the Spoolie Side

Don’t underestimate the spoolie! Brushing your brows before and after filling them in is key. Before, it helps you see your natural shape. After, it softens the pencil strokes, blends the pigment, and ensures your brows look seamless.

Hack 3: Think Feather, Not Marker

The trick to realistic brows is mimicking actual hairs. Press lightly with the pencil and use short strokes instead of dragging the pencil across. This creates a natural texture rather than a drawn-on look.

Hack 4: Layer for Intensity

One of the best things about a waterproof pencil is its buildable formula. Start light and then add layers if you want more definition. This way, you stay in control of the intensity.

Hack 5: Keep It Simple

Brows are often the finishing touch that pull your makeup look together. Even if you’re not wearing foundation or eyeshadow, filling your brows with a waterproof pencil instantly makes you look polished.
