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.

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.

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 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.

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.

If you're looking for a cool toned brow pencil, you may want to try the CoverGirl Micro-Fine and Define brow pencil.

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 often use grey eyeshadow. Or a true, cool-toned contour. I don't personally need a second product because my brows aren't sparse, so it's that and sometimes clear brow gel. I think it's easiest to find exact tones in eyeshadow.

Very insightful, as always. Unfortunately many people don't even notice that they are wearing a brow color that isn't matching with them 😁

Hi Alex! Thank you for sharing your tips and brow products. By the way, I LOVE the earring you're wearing in this video. Would you mind sharing where you purchased them?

Thank you! I'm pretty sure they were Steve Madden, but I got them second hand on Etsy. You might be able to find something similar tho!

Alex you need to try the MAC brow pen in Taupe. My life change definitely. We have very similar colors and I always go with your suggestions. When I discovered this brow pen my life really change.

I do wish you’d list the products used by each eye. ❤ I’m confused as heck… but I’m sure it’s just me. Still would love them listed out when you link them. 😘😘

Alex…….. we need (or maybe it’s just a me thing and I need) another channel that talks about all your fashion stuff. Or maybe a list in the description, but why not get paid for it too? I love your top (and want it) but I’m OBSESSED with your earrings and NEED THEM! This is all within the first 2 seconds of your video too. Ok time to watch it. 🥰💕

I have the elf $3 brow pencil in neutral brown and lately I’ve noticed it’s definitely the wrong shade for me as a girl with dark brown hair lmao. Like first it’s definitely at least 2 shades lighter than my brow hairs and it’s also a bit warm toned despite the shade name being NEUTRAL brown. My color season is dark winter so that means I’m neutral but leaning into cool so warm tones don’t look that great on me. So yeah I’m currently trying to find another product. I know elf has darker shades but the product itself is ok doesn’t last too long on me and I also don’t like how the point is too chubby I want something thinner for precision. I’m thinking of getting the wet n wild pencil next time I go to the store.

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.
