How to Perfectly Use a Brow Pencil: Pro Tips for Natural, Defined Brows

When it comes to brows, the right technique makes all the difference. Our clean beauty brow pencils are designed to give you a natural, defined look without the harsh lines. Here are a few pro tips to help you get the most out of your pencil.

1. Start with a Clean Base
Make sure your brows are free of oils or makeup before filling them in. A clean surface helps your pencil apply smoothly and last longer.

2. Map Out Your Brows
Grab your brow pencil and use it as a guide:

• Place the pencil vertically against the side of your nose — this marks where your brow should start.

• Angle the pencil from the tip of your nose through the center of your pupil — this is where your arch should peak.

• Then, angle it from the edge of your nose to the outer corner of your eye — this is where your brow should end.

3. Outline First
Lightly sketch the outline of your brows using short, hair-like strokes. Focus on creating a soft bottom line to define shape without it looking blocky.

4. Fill with Feathery Strokes
Mimic natural brow hairs by applying upward, feathery strokes within your outline. Keep the front of your brow lighter and gradually build more depth toward the arch and tail.

5. Blend, Blend, Blend
Use a spoolie brush to comb through your brows, blending the pencil strokes for a seamless, natural finish.

6. Set Your Look
For long-lasting brows, finish with a brow gel or wax to keep everything in place all day.

Pro Tip: Less is more! Brows look most natural when you build slowly rather than filling them in heavily all at once.

With these simple steps, you’ll have brows that frame your face beautifully and give you that polished, on-point look every day.
