Most Helpful Positive Review Surprisingly excellent product In the past, I always used the previous formulation of this product, and was dismayed to discover that Taupe was no longer available. I read the reviews on this product and was very wary of ordering, but I was completely out of the Taupe. So, I decided to try it despite all of the negative reviews it has received. I ordered the brown pencil, but was worried that I was wasting my money. When I received it, I gave it a try immediately and honestly, I was prepared to be disappointed. Imagine my surprise and delight when I discovered that it was not only a comparable product, it was in fact a much better formulation! The color was great and a far less artificial look than the Taupe had been and the consistency was perfect. The result was much more natural and soft. Thank you, Lancome for such a wonderful product. You never disappoint!
Most Helpful Critical Review Big Disappointment - Bring back old formula I have used my Lancome brow pencil for many, many years as my brows have become more sparse with each passing year. Now I only have a few hairs on each brow and the rest is bare skin. The old formula went on smoothly, not the new formula; it is terrible. I used natural blond which was perfect for me. As one reviewer said, I have 2 nubs left. They are so small I have to hold them with the pliers to sharpen sparingly. With the original formula, friends were surprised to learn that most of my brow hairs were gone as the pencil looked very natural. Not now. Please bring back the original formula! The search for a replacement is exhausting and expensive. So very disappointed in the quality from Lanc?me. This product is not up to your usual standards.
Reviewed by 198 customers Bring back Brunet - this is not a good brown 1
Sue1929 from Melfa, VA
I have always your Lancome Le Crayon Poudre in Brunet, which was the perfect brown and perfect powder pencil. Why would you discontinue a perfect product. This new pencil in brown is just not the right color - none of the new browns are good - too red, too dark or took light. Why mess with the old Brunet and discontinue it. Terrible marketing move.
I Loved the Taupe Brow Pencil 2
Gwynn from El Paso
I am so sad and disappointed that you discontinued the taupe color Brow Pencil. I will not purchase the other colors because they won't work with my brow and skin color. PLEASE bring taupe back!!!!
I won't buy any other since I found this! 5
KK from Central CA Valley Gal
Wax-based products tended to thin my brows over time. I love this powder and wish I had found it earlier. Two friends asked me what I use on my brows and I showed them and how the handy brush can "erase" the powder if too much is put on or a little crooked. They love it now too and changed from MK products as they were losing their brows too.
sparkles in an eye brow pencil? 1
katsully from northbrook, il 60062
The description did not say anything about a sparkle with this color - but it did have sparkle added. Who wants sparkley eye brows?
No color match 2
Mamalou from Fl
To me, the consistency of the pencil is like it used to be, but like so many others there is now no good color match for me. I'm brunette and used to used taupe (per a professional Lancôme artist that I paid to see) and it disappeared perfectly into my brows. Now with the new pencils I've tried dark blonde which is to vibrant and light for my eyes and yet the light brown is far too dark and ruddy for my brows. I guess I'll have to find a new pencil somewhere that blends into my brows but doesn't make me look like I'm going for the fake brow-look.
The color is great......easy to control.......stays on ..... 5

I love the pencil and also love the brush at the opposite end.
The One & Only 5
Palie from quarinitine
This is the only brow pencil I use. My mom has been using it for 20 some years. It's the best brow pencil. It stays on all day. Stays on in water (pool or sweat).
Eyebrow gel will make this pencil more effective. A lot of people get this pencil not understanding that it is powder based, not wax. You can rub it off easily, but if you just use gel and don't touch your brow you'll be good.
Brow Shaping Powdery Pencil 1
Bd333 from Milwaukee, WI
After using the "taupe" brow color and hearing Lancôme staff suggest "light brown" replaced taupe and customers will be pleased, I am not. Taupe is a lovely neutral tone with little color. Just right. Light brown has a strong hint of cinnamon and is not neutral.
Simple, Basic and Fabulous 5
Beth 65 from Ripon California
I've used this eye brow pencil for over 10 years now. It's simple and basic and does the job. I've even bought my 88 year old mother this pencil in Kohl to match her silver/gray hair. She loves it. Why bother with another brand if this works? I'm too busy to fool around with trendy brow pencils.

Love this 5
Griff2 from Hamptons, ny
Simple, keep your youthful brows!
No frills just great color and product- using it for years and I constantly get compliments on my eyebrows from strangers!! IMPORTANT MUST GET THE LANCOME SHAROENER IR TIP WILL CONTINUALLY BREAK. Don't know why and wish the sharpener was more readily available - only downside other than it being a bit pricy.
I would buy this product again. 5
Jo from Frankfort Illinois
I use it to fill in my eyebrows. It is a little pricey for me.
fantastic product 5

favorite eye pencil 5
MariaS from Miami FL
I have tried many products, and this is far my favorite. It lasts all day even in Miami's hot and humid weather. Easy to apply and blend for a smooth, natural look
My second purchase of this pencil and there will be a third! 5
Leesh from Clovis Ca
This brow pencil formula is the right mix between waxy and powdery to allow good color payoff but doesn't deposit too much at a time. The spoolie is sturdy not like some other brow pencils.
I would not buy this again. 1

You have to press very hard to even get a faint mark on your skin,
Ruined A Fabulous Product 1
Lucy Davidson from Houston
I am upset that Taupe is no longer available and the formula has changed. It does not apply like the previous formula and the colors available are no substitute for Taupe. I do not understand the need to change a product that worked so well and the perfect color.
I absolutely love it! I would buy this again and again. 5
Kmox from Long Beach
This is my go to eyebrow pencil! I don't like the way the other brand eyebrow pencils go on. If you have dry skin around the eyebrows, you might want to put on a little moisturizer on the eyebrows before applying eyebrow pencil. I will buy this product over and over again! I absolutely love it!
Where is taupe? 4
Kriz from Ann Arbor

Lancombe doesn't disappoint! 5

Brow shaping pencil is GREAT 5

I love the eye brow pencil only in Taupe, please bring this color back.
Also the color design Lavender Grace..
Why discontinue things that people Love.
Does not sharpen, tip constantly breaks 1
jkd301 from DC Metro Area
When I received my brow pencil the tip was blunt to I attempted to sharpen it in a standard manual pencil sharpener. Before it sharpened to a point, the tip broke off. I didn't want the pencil to get too short before I even used it, so I ordered a Lancome Sharpener. The same thing happened. The photo is the sharpest I can get the pencil before the entire brown tip breaks off. Waste of money in my opinion if you can't get the tip sharp enough to make a thin line on your brow!
I would buy this product again 5
Music lover from Illinois
I was hesitant about purchasing the brow pencil due to some bad reviews. I've been using Lancôme brow pencil for years and my current pencil is quite small and in need of replacement. I have tried many different brow pencils, and this brow pencil did not disappoint. The pencil in my opinion is no different than the one I've had for a long time. I would recommend it.
Fantastic Pencil 5
Mesh from DE
I have searches for so long to find the best possible eyebrow powder pencil, I have now found it. Thank you Lancome! It goes on smooth and stays on till I take it off, and the color is a perfect match for my blonde hair.
I really love it 5

I use it to fill in and color my eyebrows to match my hair color
