FAQs
How do I get the most natural look with this pencil?
Use light, feathery strokes that mimic the direction of your natural brow hairs. Focus on filling in sparse areas rather than drawing a solid line. Blend with a spoolie brush if needed.
Is this brow pencil good for oily skin?
The wax formula can work for oily skin, but it's best to apply lightly and consider setting with a brow gel or powder for extended wear. For very oily skin, a more matte formula might offer better longevity.
Can I use this pencil if I have sensitive eyes?
Yes, the Maybelline Quick Shaper Brow Pencil is ophthalmologist tested and safe for sensitive eyes.
How long does the color typically last?
The formula is designed to be smudge-resistant and can last for up to 17 hours.
What is the difference between the shades?
The shades vary in depth and undertone to best match natural hair colors, ranging from lighter blondes to deep browns and black-browns. Selecting the shade closest to your natural brow hair will yield the most natural result.
Do I need to sharpen this pencil?
Yes, like traditional pencils, the Quick Shaper Brow Pencil may need to be sharpened with a cosmetic pencil sharpener to maintain a precise tip for application.
Is it waterproof?
The pencil is described as smudge-resistant for up to 17 hours, but it is not explicitly stated as waterproof. It may not withstand significant water exposure.
Troubleshooting
Pencil feels waxy or sticky.
Ensure the pencil is stored correctly and not exposed to heat. For application, use light strokes and allow a moment for the product to set.
Difficulty in creating fine lines.
Sharpen the pencil to a fine point. Apply with gentle pressure, focusing on drawing individual hair-like strokes rather than filling in large areas directly.
Color appears too light or too dark.
Ensure you have selected the shade that best matches your natural brow hair. Building intensity with light layers can help achieve the desired depth.
Product smudges easily.
Allow the product to set for a minute after application. Avoid touching or rubbing the brows. For extra longevity, consider setting with a clear brow gel.

Compatibility: This product is compatible with all Maybelline brow products and other makeup items. It is formulated to be safe for use around the eye area.
Care: To maintain the pencil's integrity, store it with the cap on in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Clean the exterior of the pencil with a dry tissue if needed. Avoid storing it in extremely hot environments, which could soften the wax formula.
