I am also a natural strawberry blonde who dyes my hair more of a light auburn color, so this was suuuuuper useful!! I neglect my brows because I struggle to find good brow products that match natural-looking red shades. :P
+TheBethanyFae Was literally typing the question when I saw this.. :) Thanks so much for this video, I needed this so bad. I recently went from my natural dark, dull brown to very coppery hair and I've been struggling to find the perfect brow colour after I got them lightened. THANKYOU.
Pretty odd Issy haha I was like this too! I have a video on my channel about the products I use for my brows that might be of help to you ☺️ you should check it out xx
Love, love the NYX light brown pencil! Soooooo natural on gingers. The micro brow is to orange on natural red hair in my opinion. Think it might work better for a box redhead because the end hair colour tends to be very intense.
Love the NYX brow pencil in Auburn.I just discovered it about a year ago ! Before I had lots of failed attempts to bring color to my blonde eyebrows .Yours are stunning and look great and Natural!
The 'light brown' pencil was totally ginger. How odd for them not to label it properly. I mean...help a redhead out and say what colors you actually have NYX! lol
Great video! Though I've been using the Maybelline auburn gel for a bit, I just picked up the NYX brow pencil yesterday. Can't wait to give it a go. Spoke with the lady @ Clinique yesterday, as they have a new "brow mousse," but NO AUBURN COLOR! Grrr! She said, "Girl, go on the Clinique website, and speak your mind. They listen to you guys!" So, I'm totally gonna do it. Power to the redheads!!
Alyssia Kirkhart Ugh that's so silly that so many brands neglect auburn. -_- I hope you like using the NYX one. It's been seriously useful when most affordable brands don't make a good redhead pencil that refined in size! LOL Totally go do eet! They need to know!
Thank you so much! As everybody has already said, it is so damn hard to find eyebrow products for redheads....in the last couple of months I used a blond eyebrow pencil with a reddish undertone and then - because it's not red enough - a lipliner, which is too red on its own. Now some shopping is in need! Yay, I'm excited! I'm also very curious about the Maybelline Brow Drama, but of course the shade Auburn is not available in Germany...because there are no redheads in Germany. *sarcasm off*
love it. i havr very light redish blonde eyebrows way lighter than my hair but it all natural and ive been looking for ways to make them more noticeable thank you so much for your video
NYX Micro Brow Pencil in "Blonde" is also very very orange-y. I use it because my hair is dyed like a level 8 copper blonde so it works, kinda, but it still almost looks too orange even for me.
You are so beautiful and funny. I'm trying out this whole "learn to apply makeup by video" thing. Though you make it look so much easy than it seems when I go try it at my vanity.
OK. THANK. YOU. FOR. THIS. I am ghostly pale but NOT even close to a natural ginger. But I got my medium ashy brown (my natural color is lighter than my pic) colored to an intense bright copper-I flipping LOVE it, but I quickly noticed how I could NOT get my brows to look right at all. Desperate and before this video, I sacrificed my brow wax in my UD brow box, to mix my own brow concoction with-I KID YOU NOT---NYX Indie Flick lipstick (it's a super bright orange red). I've shockingly figured out how to make it work, by placing carefully the light brown powder in the box over it in places the red looks too bright or too close to brow line. It definitely works, and doesn't look as crazy as it sounds, but I'm gonna pick up that NYX pencil asap, cause my method is such a pain!! Thank you!! I was very disappointed at the ABH products when I swatched in store! 👏🙌
My brows are too dark and thick to register color but it does only require minimum effort to fill, although it'll be fun if it was more versatile and use that "light brown" you sport there... I love it on you!
I use the brow powder from European Wax center in Milan. It's the perfect ginger color! I'm gonna have to try that NYX micro brow. Thanks for the redhead tips!!!! :)
Yup, I was just like yup...she figured it out too as soon as I saw the Nyx Automatic Pencil! lol. It's so so so perfect for redheads! Once I finally realized a couple years back that shimmery burnt orange eyeshadow was not appropriate for filling in eyebrows, I went to Ulta to get a brow pencil. I have no idea how I got so lucky, but the Nyx Auto Brow Pencil in Light Brown was the first thing I tried and I haven't had to try anything since! :)
Together!! Like omg... hee hee I have blonde eyebrows (on a red head). For everyday I normally just do a brow powder, but for fancy stuff or pictures, I will refer back to this!
+TheBethanyFae Thanks! Just found your videos. They;'re great! I'm a redhead who is just starting to go a tiny bit gray (no one can tell except me) and I'm looking to maintain my hair color -- your stuff was helpful!!
You're really funny! My hair and brows are the same colors as yours, so I'm so glad I found this! I was considering dyeing my brows with Paul Mitchell color, as they don't match my hair.
Great video! My left brow is different from my right one and it drives me nuts! When I remember to use my coconut oil, castor oil at night I can really see a difference in growth & thickness. Can't wait to see the other videos you're workin on! :))
Melea Cochran Ahh I used to remove my toughermakeup with coconut oil. I still do sometimes. I need to try that and then also use my Rimmel lash serum because that did help once upon a time. Thank ya Melea (I believe from Snapchat right?? :D) !
HAHAHAHAHA! I can totally relate to the brows not being so much as "sisters" but more so "third cousins twice removed that don't speak to each other very much." I also have one eyebrow that has an "evil and high fashion arch," and the other is more... "depressed, less dramatically curved eyebrow" hahaha xD
TheBethanyFae To fix it, I have to brush the evil one down to tone it down; and for the other, I have to brush it up to give it some life hahaha! Also, thank you for replying to my other comment that was under your Q&A video (i think..) about the Manic Panic. It sounds silly, but I really appreciate you taking time to answer my question. I know not a lot of RU-vidrs can't get back to their subscribers... so I geeked out a little when I saw you replied, hahaha! :)
Hi--- This video is so very helpful and not nearly as complicated and product-filled as other redhead-brow videos. Question, though. Where did you get the "bent" spoolie? Can't find it online anywhere.--Thank you.--Marty
Hello Bethany, I'm 50+ and a true auburn which I've always hated. As I get older my eyebrows get lighter so it's hard to color them in do you have any advice? Thanks. CSL
I love your brows! Is it weird that I kinda want ginger brows even though it doesn't work with my hair color at all? Prolly a lil bit. I feel ya on the whole brows not being related thing. Mine are like neighbors who are maybe the same ethnicity but they aren't related at all.
haha i shallll!! i mainly have problems with the front of my brows. my right brow is thicker in the front and grows kind of curved where as the left is thinner and grows straight up. its quite odd haha.
Ahh! It's such a pain! Why can't we just wake up with prefect brows! lol I just don't understand how one of my brows is not only more arched but more active. It even moves more than the other one. >.< Very strange.
Can anyone compare this to Mac eyebrow pencil in Strut? I have dark auburn hair and it's a perfect match. I'm afraid the Nyx one might be too light. Thanks :-)
Yanno what's a hoot? Watch with the closed captions on. The only thing I do (I know I should do more) for my brows is try to keep the shape and not make sure they're not conjoined twins.
Karen Neuhoff Sometimes I do that and it sooo weird. RU-vid needs to improve that fo real. lol Haha! Well you probably have waaay better natural brows than me.
