It's common knowledge that your hair turns gray as you grow older —including the hair on your eyebrows, too. Other factors like missing particular nutrients in your diet, stress from your lifestyle, or hair pigmentation issues can also contribute to graying hairs — but that doesn't mean that your eyebrows should be sacrificed. There are a slew of gray eyebrow pencils that help you blend those hairs to oblivion (or let them shine), along with some easy tips, too.

“First, match or compliment your natural eyebrow color with the pencil,' makeup artist Min Ma, who works with Hailee Steinfeld and Leonardo DiCaprio, says. 'I like to use fair, ashy shades and light blondes for fairer skin. The idea is to fill sparse areas and give them a shape without making them stand out too much, especially with gray coloring. Think of your brows as an accessory rather than the centerpiece.'

Ma also likes to the use pencils that are larger in diameter instead of the skinny ones because they go on softer and more natural. 'Again, it’s not about coloring gray color onto your brows. Instead, give them a shape,” says Ma.

But if you want to let your grays glisten, that's totally fine, too. “I’d leave them be,' Ma reflects. 'Enjoy them. I wouldn’t pluck because good, youthful brows should look full and natural.'

Ahead, see more tips and suggestions from Ma, along with Los Angeles-based artist Michelle Quaranta, makeup artist Joanna Schlip, and Molly R. Stern, an artist whose work can be seen in publications such as ELLE and Allure.

Well hello again Mr Draft Post I’d forgotten about. I bought this eyebrow pencil back in August when I was on the hunt for a shade that would work with my blonde hair without making me look like Madonna circa 1990. I went everywhere and this was the best I found. I was hoping to strike it rich and the drugstore but unfortunately it wasn’t meant to be so I ended up at MAC spending considerably more than I’d intended. When I mentioned that I’d bought this in a video the purchase met mixed reviews.. some said it was amazing and others said it would break easily and run out quickly.. but how did it work for me?

I’d say it lasted about a month give or take and I used it fairly lightly given that it wasn’t something I wanted to repurchase soon but a month for a pencil of any kind is pretty poor, especially when you’ve spent £12.50. Saying that I did really like it, I was looking for the right shade that wasn’t too waxy and allowed me to be heavy handed without it looking overdone and that’s exactly what it did. Even when I did overdo it a little it looked natural and unlike the super waxy pencils it never looked streaky.. I hate that! It’s almost like powder in a precision pencil and for me it’s the ultimate eyebrow definer but I can’t justify spending £150 a year on my eyebrows when a powder palette for less than £10 could last me the same amount of time.

My brows are sparse and a dark ash blonde colour, they allow me to switch my hair colour from very light to very dark but I often lust after the super strong brows of others that need a swipe of brow set or wax to keep them in place and they’re good to go. I have to draw mine on every day and it’s a chore so anything that makes the job easier is welcome and I will no doubt by this again it’s just not going to be a regular repurchase.
