Nothing, and I mean nothing, has changed more in the last few decades than eyebrows. Sure, we switched up the way we wear blush and contour but eyebrow trends have changed drastically. From ultra-thin in the ’90s to the carved-out “Insta-brow” of 2016, those little hairs have been through it all. The best eyebrow pencils are ones that will allow you to rock any look you’re in the mood for. We especially love the current vibe of soft, fluffy brows that are more natural than ever and pretty easy to achieve, too.

Now, if you’re thinking all eyebrow pencils are the same, you’d be mistaken. But ultimately, it comes down to preference. Some favor a micro-pencil for creating hair-like strokes, while others prefer a slanted version for shading and defining. Either way, there’s something for everyone and every brow. Still, we have our favorites. Some are brand new and others are tried-and-true faves. Shop them all, below.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

Makeup By Mario Master Blade Brow Pencil

Master Brow Pencil was inspired by Mario Dedivanovic’s experience working in his father’s shop and sharpening his pencils with an x-acto knife when he was a kid.

Take your brows to the next level by then locking in the look with the new Master Hold Brow Gel.
