You can’t substitute eyeliner for an eyebrow pencil in this case. You are literally drawing on your eyebrow, and eyeliner is too likely to smudge and ruin the illusion. Use the same method to choose powder, but don’t get too matchy–if the colors are a little different, it will add more dimension to your drawn-on brow. Feel free to mix brow powders or eyeshadows to get the right color or simply add more depth to the look. Avoid anything with sparkles or shimmer, as this will look unnatural.
Use a soft, fluffy brush to disperse the powder.
Hold a pencil against your nose. The edge of the pencil that is closer to your eye marks where your brow should start. Don’t go any further inward than this line. [3] X Research source Keep the pencil held against your nose but pivot the tip so that it points to the outer corner of your eye. This should be about a 45-degree angle. That is where your brow should end. [4] X Research source The arch should be right above the outer edge of your iris (the colored part of your eye) if you are looking straight ahead.

Try side-swept bangs if you’ve only lost one eyebrow. You can keep your bangs pretty long and leave your undamaged brow visible. If you’re not prepared to cut your hair, you can buy clip-in bangs to wear until your eyebrow grows back.
Use a little hairspray to keep your part in place.
Eyebrow wigs come in a variety of colors and stay put, even when you wash your face, but are easy to remove with oil-based makeup removers. High-quality pairs can be used for up to six months–plenty of time for your brows to grow back.
Use the tips of your fingers to rub your brow with gentle, circular motions. Try massaging your eyebrows twice a day–once in the morning and once at night. You only need to do it for a few minutes.
Castor oil is sticky, so you may want to dilute it with a little coconut or almond oil. Dab some on your finger and then massage it into the area where you shaved your eyebrow. If you don’t have castor oil, try a little extra virgin olive oil, which is supposed to have a similar effect. [8] X Research source
