After Base Makeup, During the Brow Step
Due to its hard texture, this pencil doesn't glide smoothly on bare skin. For best color payoff, use it after you've completed your skincare and base makeup, when there's a light layer of moisture or oils on the brow area. Filling in your brows before eyeshadow makes it easier to balance your overall makeup look.
Hair-Like Stroke Drawing Technique
Follow the natural direction of your brow hairs and draw short, feathery strokes to fill in sparse areas. Ebony Black is ideal for those with naturally dark, full brows who only need to fill in gaps. For more precision, sharpen the pencil into a flat, blade-like tip. Use the thin edge to mimic individual hairs, and the wider flat surface to fill in larger areas.
Brow Styling by Occasion
- Daily Makeup: Keep the inner brow light and define only the tail for a soft, natural look
- Office Look: Avoid sharp angles at the arch—opt for a gently rounded shape for a polished, professional finish
- Evening Out: Fill the entire brow evenly and extend the tail slightly for a more refined, sophisticated vibe
Products That Work Well Together
If your brow hairs tend to stick up at the front, tame them first with a brow mascara, then fill in gaps with the pencil. If your brow tail fades easily, shape it with the pencil first, then lock it in with a tint or gel for longer-lasting wear.
Care Tips for Longevity
When sharpening, start about 3–4 cm from the tip and expose around 1.5 cm of the core. Thanks to its hard formula, it resists breaking and lasts a long time. To remove, gently cleanse with a dedicated brow makeup remover or cleansing oil.
