Your eyes may be the window to your soul, but we'd argue that your brows might even be more important. Brows frame the face, so getting your hands on a really good eyebrow pencil is essential. The right brow pencil will fill in any spaces you might be missing hair, bulk up the thickness of your arch, and define your shape all while looking like you naturally have Brooke Shields's glorious brows.
There are so many brow pencils on the market that choosing the right one can be tricky. Luckily, POPSUGAR editors have tried dozens of brow pencils and are constantly sharing with each other the secret to their fluffy brows. Ahead, check out the best brow pencils around.
