Defining Mechanical Eyebrow Pencils That You Can Take Anywhere
It’s difficult to take a traditional eyebrow pencil out and about. Unless it has a cap that you’ve somehow hung onto, it’s rolling around open in your nice bag, potentially staining your lining with the color of your eyebrows. No one wants that. No one wants to go without the opportunity to have an after-work eyebrow touch-up either. After all, you don’t carry wooden pencils around in your purse, you probably carry capped pens or mechanical pencils. Why wouldn’t you apply that same logic to your eyebrow pencils?
Mechanical eyebrow pencils mean no sharper is required. You can just roll it up when it starts to get low. It also has caps on both ends—the pencil end and the spoolie end. The spoolie brush helps evenly distribute your color-payoff, so you get natural-looking brows. The best eyebrow pencils to-go have specially shaped tips, allowing you to get up close and personal with your arch. Some have such fine tips, that your traditional eyebrow pencil never would, that you can create mini hairs in areas where you’re lacking.
Our picks come in a variety of pencil colors, from blonde to black to gray, so you can find what you’re looking for.
