Alternatives To Ombre Brows

The convenience of not having to do your eyebrows every time is worth the price of getting ombre eyebrows, especially if you can afford it. However, if the budget doesn’t permit it, there could still be other options. 

Here are a few options to consider.

1. Waterproof Eyebrow Pencil

To make sure that your eyebrows last all day even if you sweat, you need a waterproof formula. There are lots of  eyebrow pencil  that are waterproof to help make sure they last throughout the day. 

Although you still have to use it every day, at least you can have the convenience of having to do eyebrow touchups every few hours to make sure your makeup is still on point. 

2. Eyebrow Stamp Kit

For those who are having trouble creating the shape of their eyebrows, there are now stamp kits that you can use on your eyebrows. 

These  kits  include a stencil and eyebrow powder. To use this, you select the shape of the eyebrow that you want to use then hold it firmly over your eyebrows. 

The eyebrow powder comes in stick packaging with a sponge on top that you dabbed over the stencil. The cutout part creates the shape of your eyebrows. 

Although this product isn’t that long-lasting, it could still save you time because it is easy to use. 

3. Peel-Off Eyebrow Tint

If you want a product that could last for a couple of days or weeks, then you could try the peel-off  eyebrow tints . To use this, apply the product to your eyebrows in the shape that you’d like. Then let the product set on your eyebrows for a few minutes. 

It may seem that it is too dark. But don’t worry because you still have to peel it off after it sets. Once you peel it off, the tint will remain and it could last an average of three days.

4. Microblading

Microblading has long been a popular eyebrow procedure, but can be hit or miss for those with oily skin. Ombre brows work a little better in these cases, and are possibly a bit cheaper than ombre brows (but they’re in the same price range)
