NYX Professional Makeup Micro Brow Pencil

The NYX brow liner is hands-down my favorite brow product — I’ve tried so many, but I always come back to this one. It’s super easy to use, even on rushed mornings, and the precision of the tip lets me create both natural hair-like strokes or a more defined, bold brow look. What I really love is the formula: it’s pigmented without being too harsh, blends beautifully, and lasts all day without smudging or fading. Plus, it doesn’t give that waxy or overly shiny look some other liners do. It holds up through heat, humidity, and even the occasional accidental brow touch. NYX really nailed it with this one — amazing quality at an affordable price. I always keep a backup on hand because I never want to be without it!

This stuff is great. It does not go on super thick so if you make a mistake it is easy to correct. It also looks light when it is on. Really good product

Normally I like this eyebrow pencil. I bought it from somewhere else and when I ran out I ordered it from Amazon but couldn’t remember the color I had. I ordered Ash Blonde. It would normally reflect the color of my hair (my stylist says my hair color is a light ashy brown) but the pencil color definitely had red undertones and it made me look so weird. I typically look for a blonde eyebrow pencil so this would have been my shade guess but the color was off. Next time I’ll order plain Blonde or Light Brown. The pencil quality is great and I really like the application and precision it gives.

The NYX Micro Brow Pencil is fantastic for my wiry, spotty brows. The tiny tip makes it easy to add color and fill in any sparse areas, giving me a natural, precise look. The formula is smooth, and the color is just the right shade — not too dark, not too light, and it blends perfectly with my natural brow color. However, my only complaint is that it doesn’t quite tame my wild hairs. While it adds great color, it doesn’t help with keeping my brows in place, so I still need a separate brow gel to get everything to stay neat. Overall, it’s a great pencil for shaping and filling, but if you're looking for something that also keeps your brows in place, you’ll need to pair it with another product. Still, it’s one of the best for filling in spots and creating defined brows.

NYX products offer very reasonable alternatives to costly makeup items. This pencil did not disappoint and is replacing another I’ve been using for a long time (major brand and just under $30 for one). The NYX replacement is just as good and may actually be better. I will see how it holds up with daily use. It goes in smoothly and does not pull. It blends well with brush and color was as described.

I can be a label snob but this is an amazing product and I’ll be turning to it over most more expensive lines. Color is great, it’s easy to use (fyi- I suck at makeup) & it lasts a long time. Noticed reviews complaining about the tip breaking, which it does if you press down super hard but not really a regular problem or something I’m rating the product down for.

My to-go brow pencil. Thin and comfortable to draw any shape you want. Stays on place the whole day and shade is beautiful as well.

The rich auburn color, which appears much lighter in all of the pics I could find online than the regular Auburn color appears, was in fact, a very rich darkly colored Auburn. It was FAR too dark for my fair-skinned redhead self (think dark mahogany, for a #4 & under hair dye color, medium to dark shades being best for this.) That said, I would try the regular Auburn, but am now worried that based upon the pics, it could potentially be even darker than the Rich Auburn I bought! The pencil itself is good...a lil on the dry side tho (so I've a feeling it will be a bit breaky due to its dryness, losing a great deal of product; hoping I can get >2wks out of it tbh). My only real complaint is there are not enough color shades available, nor any pics that represent their actual IRL color. (see Rich Auburn vs Auburn pics.)
