What they flagged

  • Requires a very light hand to look natural

What the gurus are saying

The fine tip lets you draw realistic hair-like strokes, and once it dries it shifts to a powdery texture you can brush through to soften the look. Gurus praise how affordable and easy it is to use, especially for those new to brow pens, and note the range of shades available. The key is a light hand and the angle you hold it at: hold it flatter for more product and a thicker line, or angle it more as you work into sparser spots for a feathery finish. Going down a shade from your hair color often reads more natural.

"I'm going to go in with a brow pen first. This one is from NYX and it is their Lift and Snatch Brow Pen. This is not super expensive and I think that it works. I'm going to use this to gently fill in the sparse areas that I have first."

Pool party friendly makeup, no foundation 🙌🏻
"I'm using gray black or ash brown, I can't remember actually. I was not happy with my brows this day. They really needed a shaping and a trim. I'm using products that you always see, so it's not like anything was very different. It was just like the way I did them."

"I'm going to use gray black cuz again dark hair. I'm just going to amp up starting to get the tail, amp up these brow hairs and this color. I don't want it to end up looking like super heavy or anything so I am going in and drawing individual hairs but just deepening that color up."
"It’s a no for me girl"…Random Reviews
"I use the NYX brow tint pen in gray black, it's a really really great cool toned color for someone who has like really dark hair. It might be a little bit lighter but you want to air on the lighter side so that your brows don't end up being blocks. You want to do the exact same thing, find a much lighter color to do some kind of like a shadow underneath and then you can go in with that pen in the very very sparse areas and fill in any blanks."
How to look Glowy NOT Oily
"I'm going to go in with the NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen in Ash Brown just to do a little bit of light filling. I want to keep my brows soft to keep this look pretty natural."
my super in depth brow routine
"So the product that I want to go in with next is a brow pen. My favorite is the NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen. They have a bunch of different colors. The ones that I use typically are gray, black, or ash brown. I also love it."
How I fake fuller eyebrows
"NYX has great ones, so many colors. Honestly, I think [...] NYX are the best. I use every color. The [...] brow pen, [...] you don't want to be so dark. Like, [...] if you have dark brown hair, you don't necessarily want to use a dark brown; you might want to go down a shade or so because it looks a lot more natural."
This is your new go-to Soft Glam makeup
"Going in with NYX brow pen in gray black, it's like another one that I'm never going to not use. It's just like the perfect cool toned color to be able to like build up definition in my brows. I do kind of wish it was like a little bit tinier but they're really, it's really good. I don't really have any complaints. It's drugstore."
If you dye your hair this is for you boo
"If you have never used a brow pen, my favorites are the NYX ones. That's why I have like 400 of them. They're so good, a range of color. You just need a really, really light hand. It's going to be a nice feathery kind of thin line. If you hold it more straight or perpendicular against your skin, the flatter you place it against your skin, the more product is going to come out, the thicker the line is going to be. So I like to kind of do something in between and then angle it a little bit more as I get to sparser areas."
This is why your brow color isn't working
"For this brow I'm going to be using gray black which is the cool tone, this is pretty dark so I just want to make sure I'm not going in with way too much. The process is the same, I'm going to start off in the most sparse areas very gentle and then as I get a little bit closer to the inner part of the brow taking the point right up against my skin so I'm using like the slightest amount to fill in those little areas. You can see that really nice distribution even though I hardly took any of the brow pen into this inner half of my brow, you can see that the color of it looks so cohesive, the brow hairs look even more like it just looks so cohesive the color."

"I'm going to use my NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen in Gray Black to fill in the gaps. I always get questions like people always be like are your brows microbladed and I'm like no dude I swear it's this this little brow technique that I got going on."
The products I recommend in REAL LIFE
"I use the NYX brow tint pen specifically in gray black for my brows. People always ask me if my eyebrows are microbladed and I'm like no dude, just soap and this, and it's like the perfect finish. I just get the most beautiful finish. I do a little bit of a brow pencil underneath, set with soap, and then I fill in the gaps with this NYX brow tint pen. In any shade, whatever works for your skin tone or your hair color, it's perfect and amazing. It's drugstore, it's NYX, but it's like the best formula ever. It's definitely the best one that I have ever used, like 100%."

"I'm going to go in with the NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen in gray black. I'm just going to use a really light hand and draw in some individual hairs in the really sparse areas. Most of the filling is happening at the tail and the bottom of the brow."
I'm SOOO sorry but this is the best makeup look ever
"I'm going in with NYX Lift & Snatch! Brow Tint Pen, focusing on the top of the brow to lift everything. I'm slowly building it up, and this was just kind of freeform."
Yay
"They're affordable, like I don't know $13 or something like that, and they are really smooth, they're waterproof, they have a few different shades that you can choose from. [...] They are really so good and easy to use. If you're not familiar with using a brow pen, [...] I find brow pens to be really intimidating in theory, [...] but it's actually super easy. [...] Once it's dry you can just take the brow pen and just kind of fill in with really gentle strokes to make it look like you've got a hair there wherever you need it. I think it's so much easier and more natural looking. [...] I'm happy to report that I like the ones from NYX."
Yay
"I'm back to my NYX Lift and Snatch Brow Pen so I'm just filling in the brows super lightly with this. The nice thing about this is once it kind of dries you can actually brush through it and it turns a little more powdery, kind of disperses those lines a little bit more. I'm just really into it."
