Does anyone know a mascara that would work well with this white spot of hairs in my beard? Please see images below for more information. I’m thinking an extremely light brown might work? Please let me know your thoughts.
I’m a redhead- with blond brows so I think I might be able to help. I think you need a brow gel- i like: Glissier boy brow in auburn, benefit gimme brow tinted brow-in 2 or 3.5 (they sell it in a mini too), milk makeup brow gel in dub,
Thank you yes that might be an option. I thought a pencil is a good idea but there are so many shades of pencils I don’t know what shade my beard is. I’m looking in a website called Sephora as we speak haha
Have you seen a doctor for the white patch? Like a dermatologist? The area of the skin looks like it’s patchy, like maybe a skin condition, but I also wonder if you may have vitiligo on that area. I have vitiligo, and a white patch of hair that I cannot dye no matter what I do.
Oh really? I’m going to go to a dermatologist soon. I went to the doc years ago and he gave me some cream in which did nothing at all. I believe it was an anti fungal cream?
Oh Thanks! I’m trying to find one now. I think there was this product called redhead revolution which was mascara for red heads? I don’t know maybe a red/ginger eye brow pencil you think?
I was dropping in to say the same thing. OP I'd not put anything on it until you determine what/why it is. If it's ringworm, you're just gonna contaminate the application end of whatever and keep reinfecting yourself. You can also spread it to other parts of your own body and other people if they come in contact with that spot, linens, etc. It's a fungus (not a worm like parasite) and likes moist places, so be careful about drying that area and then using the same towel elsewhere. If you're not going to the doc stat, there are plenty of OTC treatments you can try.
A brow brush would probably work best. Natural colors that apply just like mascara. If you go to any CVS or Walgreens and ask for a tinted brow pomade or gel it should be easy to find.

I might them try an eyebrow gel in a light brown shade but make sure you check your beard in the sun for red tones so it doesn't look too different in different lighting.
You could also try a beard filler! That may work better and transfer less to skin with it's design it's like a little pin with a little comb as the tip and just hits the hairs. But a light brown in mascara if you stick to that idea I think would work well
Sorry if this comes off as counterproductive, but I actually really like the way it looks!!! Maybe use white mascara to bring it out more? If you don’t think you’d like that I use just for men on my eyebrows and it’s 10/10. Hope this helps
I have this eyebrow marker.. kinda looks like an eyeliner. And comes in all the hair colors. I think it would work amazing. Mascara and or brow gel usually doesn’t stick to my skin in places where I’m missing hair.
Actually I had my eyebrows microbladed because I had scarring and missing most of one eyebrow. You might want to try it. Nobody knows I have tattooed eyebrows. Looks pretty natural. It's not cheap but will not wash off with sweat or water.
No pencil! Use a waterproof eyebrow gel or waterproof mascara close to your hair color if you need it to stay and not transfer. This would need to be re-applied everyday or if you wash it off. But I would just dye your beard, maybe dye all of it to keep it consistent. This would keep you good for a week (or more/less idk how fast beard hair grows)
you could probably get it dyed, but i’d recommend some eyebrow gel!! if you’re looking on a budget one of my favorite brows are by nyx, you can get them for as little as $5 at a drugstore or on amazon <33
Maybelline has a line called tattoostudio. I’ve found that I keep going back for the brow gel. But they have tinting pens as well. I think they help with being more precise.
i use an eyebrow pen (it's kinda like a marker) to draw on some pretty realistic eyebrow hairs. i imagine it would work well for your beard! i use the hard candy brows now pen specifically. i'd recommend going one shade lighter than your hair :)
Dye it don't use mascara lol or by the root touch up stuff to cover grey hair...or even perhaps a brow tint mascara type of product... But personally i bet it doesn't look that bad. And adds character.. not sure how your age but anything in or around 30 +, your beard isn't far from the natural salt n pepper look.
Haven’t much experience(sorry mild habit of mine using British grammar: means “I do not have much”) with doing makeup with facial hair{when doing drag I prefer to shave} but maybe a concealer gel/cream like;
An eyebrow gel would be better than a mascara! They have a lot more of variety
Agreed! Essence make me Brow is a good choice, cheap and cruelty free. Plus it has a small brush which would work well on hair that short.
Oh thank you! Do you think it would be better then an eyebrow pencil?

Boy brow was my first thought!
Thank you so much! I will look into this one I appreciate your comment! <3
Maybe hit it with some Just for Men
I tried medium brown just for men but it left a large dark spot where I attempted to dye it :/
You could also try and get it dyed at a barber. You can also buy beard dying kits at the pharmacy
Thank you yes that might be an option. I thought a pencil is a good idea but there are so many shades of pencils I don’t know what shade my beard is. I’m looking in a website called Sephora as we speak haha
they have products for your roots in your hair (to cover greys) I would look into that! they may even have one for beards
Thankyou!
They do - it’s called Just for Men Mustache & Beard

Maybe a brow tint?
Yes maybe I will try that too :)
Soft brown eyebrow gel; this is coming from someone with light, thin, sparse eyebrows 😌
Thanks Nicole!
Microblading might also be a solution. It's basically a tattoo covering up the hair loss
Oh Thanks! I’m trying to find one now. I think there was this product called redhead revolution which was mascara for red heads? I don’t know maybe a red/ginger eye brow pencil you think?
I did find a website called Sephora which has heaps of pencils. Does anyone know what shade my beard would be? Soft red?
Please note my beard is ginger/red I don’t know what color exactly
Maybe eyebrow powder then draw on hairs. Mines from Poundland and I use it everyday it's brilliant as there's 4 shades
Thankyou!!
Glossier boy brow in brown, black is a bit intense and I have dark skin and black hair
That might be ring worm. Maybe try over the counter medicine and it can go away. I had it on my arm. For me, the hair didnt grow back there.

Oh really! Sorry to hear that! I will check with a dermatologist soon thanks!
Mascara would be too dark and can smudge/run. Brow tint would be better but beard dye would be best so you don't have to do it every day
Thankyou!
Grow your beard and braid the single white bit.
Great idea!
Try Anastasia eye brow gel. I use a sponge to dab it on with a stencil so it should work for your besrd
Thankyou!
Obviously whatever makes you comfortable is best- but I think it’s a cute polka dot! 😁
Thank you haha
Maybelline is the best for no smudging. If you use a gel mascara make sure it is set on the hairs!!
Thankyou!
medium-brown to orange eyebrow brush
Thankyou!
Microwaving would work great!
I think it looks great. There was a guy I was super hot for that had this patch on his eyebrow. I loved the uniqueness of it.
Aww thanks! Yes, it is unique I guess haha
A brow brush would probably work best. Natural colors that apply just like mascara. If you go to any CVS or Walgreens and ask for a tinted brow pomade or gel it should be easy to find.
Thankyou!
No mascara they make a 3 prong stick for eyebrows so you can draw hair
Thanks!
I’d get the area tattooed if I were you
Hi I don’t know about tattoo on the face.
Thank you for contributing to MUA! If this is your first post, please be sure to check out our rules in the subreddit sidebar. If you are on mobile, they can be viewed by tapping the ⓘ symbol
Something like
try something like benefit gimme brow+ in one of the lighter colors! it has some color but also extra “hairs” to help build up sparse eyebrows :)
Hey check
I recommend an eyebrow pencil. That way you can draw the little hairs.
I might them try an eyebrow gel in a light brown shade but make sure you check your beard in the sun for red tones so it doesn't look too different in different lighting.
Eyebrow products, such has benefits cosmetics they hav great products.
Sometimes I draw in a fake mustache and I usually use eyebrow products for that, try an eyebrow gel!
Buy an eyebrow tint or a dye for eyebrows. Its almost like coloring your hair but its for eyebrows so it’ll do wonders for your beard.
WOW hair color
Il makiage has an awesome eyebrow trio.. spray some Mac fix & stay on top it will look natural and last all day 🤍
Thanks so much! I will look into this! :)
Elfs wow brow gel works wonders it has little fibers in it too to stick to the hair makes the hair stiffer for grooming and it's fairly inexpensive
How about eye brow dye?
You need like an eyebrow wand. Dior is great and so is Anastasia
I would try eyebrow gel with a spool
Just start making it a different colour every few days. Get some cool gel or cream shadows and brush them with a mascara wand and whatever colour
I would try a brow gel/tint. Maybe like color 2/3 benefit gimme brow. If you go into a beauty supply store you can usually swatch to match
In make-up artistry, there is something called a Stipple sponge:
You could also try a beard filler! That may work better and transfer less to skin with it's design it's like a little pin with a little comb as the tip and just hits the hairs. But a light brown in mascara if you stick to that idea I think would work well
My dad uses a maybelline mascara and it works perfectly
Root touch-up would work. Good luck!
Why dont you just dye it?
Sorry if this comes off as counterproductive, but I actually really like the way it looks!!! Maybe use white mascara to bring it out more? If you don’t think you’d like that I use just for men on my eyebrows and it’s 10/10. Hope this helps

Eyebrow pencil would work well I think

Thanks! I will look into this one!
Please, what part of the body am I looking at? It’s driving me nuts, what am I looking at?
It’s in my cheek. Left cheek of face to be exact.
Try a brow gel instead of a mascara! You’ll get a better range of colours for matching facial hair.
Haha Thanks when it grows back again I’ll Post another pic ;)
Definitely agree. Use an eyebrow brush and product will work much easier
Thankyou!
That’s rad. I love when someone has. Super unique feature. Is that a birthmark? ✌️
No I don’t know what it is haha doc said it’s nothing but I will go to a dermatologist soon
Pop a zit
Haha it’s not a Zit lol
Actually I had my eyebrows microbladed because I had scarring and missing most of one eyebrow. You might want to try it. Nobody knows I have tattooed eyebrows. Looks pretty natural. It's not cheap but will not wash off with sweat or water.

Thanks! I will keep it in mind!
I think he needs to be treating that spot with Melaleuca oil and alcohol it looks like he has some type of bumps or ringworm
Thankyou! I went to doc a few years ago he prescribed me some steroid cream but it didn’t change anything
One that is brown with a very fine bristle brush, I don’t think the brand of matter much. Oh yeah and waterproof lol
Haha! Thankyou!
you could probably get it dyed, but i’d recommend some eyebrow gel!! if you’re looking on a budget one of my favorite brows are by nyx, you can get them for as little as $5 at a drugstore or on amazon <33
Wow! Thanks so much! :)
nyx thick it stick it brow gel! it’s a cheap and good brow gel that can tint the hairs to match the rest of them!
They also make stuff for hair to help cover grey temporarily!
Aww okay thanks! ;)
Maybelline has a line called tattoostudio. I’ve found that I keep going back for the brow gel. But they have tinting pens as well. I think they help with being more precise.
Thanks so much I will look into it :)
I would use an eyebrow pencil instead. Best of luck to you!
Any brow product would be better then mascara
Thankyou!
Or use a eyelash prostaglandin product to help hair growth in that spot maybe
Thankyou!
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Gel. The bessttttt.
Will check it out!
i use an eyebrow pen (it's kinda like a marker) to draw on some pretty realistic eyebrow hairs. i imagine it would work well for your beard! i use the hard candy brows now pen specifically. i'd recommend going one shade lighter than your hair :)
Thanks so much!
Refectocil is a brow dye that I use with great results - I found it on Amazon (1 tube lasts FOREVER) and they have a couple of different shades.
Thankyou!
Thankyou!
Dye it don't use mascara lol or by the root touch up stuff to cover grey hair...or even perhaps a brow tint mascara type of product... But personally i bet it doesn't look that bad.

Thank you!!!
Use black eyeshadow
Or you could just use the trimmer daily and stay clean shaven. That is how I like it! No stubble to give a girl pimples when you kiss her.
Yeah i have an same question with you
We will find the answer :)
Why don’t u get it micro bladed so it’s semi permanent and u don’t need to do it everyday
But then if he shaved it would still be there
Haven’t much experience(sorry mild habit of mine using British grammar: means “I do not have much”) with doing makeup with facial hair{when doing drag I prefer to shave} but maybe a concealer gel/cream like;
I would honestly get microblading in the area and never have to worry about it again
