Taupe is the staple color, found in oodles of make-up kits around Hollywood. Why? It’s extremely versatile and works on a majority of skin tones. Perfect for contouring the eye.
For brows - blonde to brunette -same great pencil! Just lighten up on the pressure for blondes and press a bit harder for darker hair brows.
All these pencils are top quality - long lasting AND inexpensive! Oh - and did we mention they are 7″ long? This ain’t a stubby deal!
$1.25 !? Hello!!!

I'm a dark brown eyed brunette and Taupe is perfect for me. I buy these by the handful and love them!
1. Unlike other pencils they are long and last forever.
2. They sharpen up very well with a high quality sharpener.
3. They do not crumble on the brow, are smooth enough to create the short strokes needed to fill in, without being too hard to pull on the skin.
4. You cannot beat the price.
Note: For those that think they are too long, just cut then in half and sharpen!
If the tip gets too soft, I just pop them into my freezer for a few minutes! I will never stop buying these. They put other brands to shame.

I have gotten the Taupe eyebrow pencil many times over. It's a great neutral shade for my dark brows. It is very inexpensive, yet works just fine. No reddish tones, not too gray. Just a good neutral taupe. My only complaint (and it's minor compared to the cost) is that sometimes it's hard to sharpen it evenly. I usually buy several at a time just to make the shipping cost worth it.

Taupe is indeed a perfect color...I went by the review the site gives..and so I bought one..and wasn't dissapointed at all..I use it often..It is indeed the perfect pencil for brows..
