Also great brow advice, as always. For anyone with dark brown hair wanting a single product that doesn’t need layering/mixing, I’m a big fan of the tone of the maybelline tattoo brow in 07 black/brown (with an angled brush, the included wand is a nightmare). It’s neutral/leaning cool.

I wonder if she did match them? I thought she chose a background that matched her tones, and the lipstick just fits because of course she’s using one in her tones. Either way - beautiful harmony.

Asian beauty brands are great for finding cool-toned lighter brow products (especially pencils). Shades called 'soft black', 'grey black', or 'grey brown' are usually good options. If you can still find them, Nabla pencils in 'Neptune' and Zoeva pencil in 'asphalt' are good options for medium-dark hair colours.

@@madlenj.4644 the taupe. The key is to go in as light as possible and the wax or diffused soap to make the existing hairs stand out more so that you are filling in way less.

My hair is naturally warm toned dark brown, while my eyebrows are an ashy black so a lot of shades look way too warm and bold.

I have medium cool tone brown brows, and I’ve been using the NYX regular micro brow pencil in the shade 05.5 Cool Ash Brown and I’d say, at least for me, that it seems like a true cool tone. I do not find that it leans warm or turns warm later in the day. Perhaps because I use the Schwarzkopf Got2B hair glue to set it that maybe it keeps my brows from ever getting oily or running the color, but it still seems like a true cool ash brown to me. I don’t think the color came out until last year when I first purchased it, and Amazon still labels it a “new” color. But I’d recommend it for those looking for a cool tone brown.

I have learned to do my brows properly from you, Alex, so thank you. Before, I only used a thick eyebrow pencil with clear mascara.

If you're looking for a cool toned brow pencil, you may want to try the CoverGirl Micro-Fine and Define brow pencil. I use the shade Soft Brown, and it's the perfect Medium Ash Brown colour (I was previously using the Anastasia Brow Wiz in Medium Brown). I wouldn't describe the CoverGirl as a "soft" brown. It's actually darker than that, but that's what they call it. They do have a darker brown shade, but since you don't want it too dark, you may be quite happy with the Soft Brown. My neice has dark brown brows, and she really likes the Soft Brown shade. Anyway, just thought I'd mention it. It's great drug store brow pencil option.

I actually use the Nyx lift-n-snatch brow pen in gray black on BOTH my brow & eyeliner. I find that color works well to give a natural accent to my asian complexion (black hair, light medium tone skin). Also, that is the only liquid product that lasts forever, every other type of liquid brow/liner product seems to dry out after a couple of week, but the Nyx one lasts forever. I also use the benefit brow gel in gray for my brow just by itself. It's one of the few brow gel that even comes in gray tone. That particular color and gel is the only one that seems to look natural on my brow.

My favorite eyebrow thing eveeeer is to apply Nyx eyeshadow primer all over the eyebrow hairs- except the inner corner, cause I don't want them to be very intense there- wait a couple mins, then use my normal powder. Dude! It fills them up more sparsely (as in intense but the light color of the primer sticks out here and there and balances it out and looks natural- I guess it's because the primer neutralizes the redness from the brown powder- and it stays matte all day. Aand, compared to soap, the hairs don't fall down throughout the day. Dunno how you do it Alex, but soaps or gels didn't work for me last summer. As soon as I went outside and sweat a bit it became a mess...but no more. I swear this trick I tried changed the game for me! 😁 Edit: it's important to blend the primer with your fingers and really press it into the hairs after applying it cause otherwise it's too thick on the eyebrows and it looks as if they have a white ish contour 😂 Edit two: forgot a very important detail: brush the hairs upwards after applying the powder. Everything stays up afterwards.

I have the opposite problem, I have very light ginger hair and almost non-existent eyebrows so every reddish shade is too dark on me, and every light shade is too cool-toned. I feel like there's definitely been an improvement with cool-toned products becoming more widely available over the years, though (if we compare it to let's say the 2000s). I think the solution should be making brow products the same way the shades for foundation are made - make it a cool/warm + light/dark scale. Don't know why we still consider a 5-shade range appropriate for brow products!!

Depending on your hair color and brow density, part of what gives brows the appearance of fullness/opacity is not the brow hairs themselves, it's the shadows they cast on the skin underneath them. So IME, for a naturalish look, the best "soft fill" (the kind of product you spread throughout the whole brow area, not the kind where you're sketching in individual "hairs") is a hue that's a shadowy sheer warm black or grey, maybe with just a hint of the color of your hair or skin. I have light pinky-cool skin and generally wackadoo candy-colored hair, so my go-to is just a sheer warm black which matches my lashes (okay fine, and also my copious roots). But even if you're blonde or ginger, you might be happier with a soft-fill color that's WAY more desaturated than the usual.

I have cool blonde hair and super blonde parse brows. Ive been using cool brown to fill them in lately, but it doesnt look right. I think im gonna go back to cool gray and mix a little brown for some depth. Eyebrows are so stressful to fill in for me, so thank you for your tips 🤎✌️

I also use the NYX brow pen in Taupe...and I have very dark brown hair/brows. But when I use a dark brown pen, it's too dark. Another great video Alex!

Really helpful video, thank you. I'm a big fan of NYX brow products, accessible and affordable. I use a combination of Taupe and ash brown (can't say I've seen the grey/black here in the UK but will definitely have a look for it).

I'm confused. I usually get Alex's videos at 6pm UK time. Not to worry I'd watch whatever the time 💗xx

Ok, basically if you have a brow product that you love but the color pulls to warm on you, you want to balance that by layering it with another brow product that is more cool toned.

I have the lift and snatch tint pen in ash brown It’s pretty alright in matching my hairs just not good enough Their brow mascara in cool ash brown is a perfect match and I also have the tinted glue in dark brown and it’s pretty good

Could you do a full face where you do everything except foundation, concealer, etc.? I wear make-up but usually only only do eyes and lips.

I have full black brows and if I use black pencil or powder it’s too much and I look like Groucho Marx immediately. I’ve been using the taupe FILL & FLUFF EYEBROW POMADE PENCIL from NYX and it’s been so nice to use. Then I go over it with eyebrow gel from got2b to keep them in place and makes it look clean. I can’t even use the wowbrow from Elf any more because it deposits too much fibers. I’ll have to try out this pen next time. Thank you Alex.

Just this morning I seriously considered shaving my eyebrows off! I think I tried every brow pen on the market. Even if it seems like the color is ok initially, as the day goes by, it oxidizes and changes color once it warms up on the skin😔

Have you tried Milani Weekend Eyebrow Tint? It’s a pen and I’d pretty much given up on all brow pens. They usually ended up too thick looking on me and IF I got real thin hairlike strokes I had to spend soooo much time doing it and even then I’d mess up a ton throughout. A friend recommended the Milani Weekend Eyebrow Tint and I’d never even heard they had a brow pen! So I gave it a try. I got the shade Espresso because I have dark brown hair but muted black kind of charcoal grey brow hairs. And the espresso works well and actually isn’t too dark and isn’t warm at all (most brow products in black/espresso were way too dark for me but browns were always way too warm). It gives me such thin hair like strokes without even trying! It’s so quick and easy and I never even mess up! If you haven’t tried that one, I’d definitely recommend trying it because I was like you and thought I’d tried them all and just couldn’t find one that works…until the Milani one!

Very helpful, Alexandra! Thank you! I have also been loving the NYX brow pens but have the same issue with the taupe. It can look very “faded tattooed brow” if you know what I mean. The solution with the warmer pencil is perfect!

Your lips are so gorgeous! Love the lip color you’re wearing! What color and brand is it ? It’s just perfect for your skin tone . I have a hard time finding good shades cuz I’m a peach toned redhead. Things always look too warm or cool on me . This color seems to be one you wear a lot . Thank to you! Great video!
