How to Fill in Sparse Brows with Kylie Eyebrow Pencil

Quick answer

Use a light hand and short, hair-like strokes to fill sparse areas with Kylie Eyebrow Pencil in true brown, then blend for a natural finish.

Step-by-step tutorial

1. Step 1: Brush brows upward: Use a spoolie brush to brush your brow hairs upward. This reveals sparse spots and gives you a clean canvas to work on. Brushing also removes excess product from previous applications.
2. Step 2: Outline the bottom edge lightly: With the Kylie Eyebrow Pencil in true brown, draw a thin line along the bottom edge of your brow from the inner corner to the tail. Keep the line soft—don't press hard. A common mistake is making the outline too thick; start with a light hand.
3. Step 3: Fill with short, hair-like strokes: Using the pencil tip, make quick, upward strokes in the direction of hair growth. Focus on sparse areas, not the entire brow. This mimics natural brow hairs. Avoid filling in a solid line; thin strokes create a more natural look.
4. Step 4: Blend with a spoolie: Gently brush through your brows again to soften the pencil strokes and distribute the color evenly. This removes any harsh lines and gives a diffused finish. Blending is key—skip this step and the brows may look drawn-on.
5. Step 5: Set with clear brow gel (optional): If you want extra hold, apply a clear brow gel to keep hairs in place and extend wear. This step is especially helpful for oily skin or long days. Gel can also tame unruly hairs and keep your shape intact.
