Eyebrow Pencils
An eyebrow pencil can make or break a girl’s makeup look. According to makeup artist and brand founder Jenny Patinkin, choosing the appropriate eyebrow pencil can make or break it for some. Some prefer full, fluffy brows while others need fill in sparse spots; if your brows are thinner consider one with fine tip that creates hair-like strokes.”
