tarte Big Ego Sketch & Set eyebrow pencil & tinted gel — Dark Warm Brown, waterproof 12-hour wear

A dual-ended brow tool that combines an ultra-fine pencil with a tinted microcomb gel for waterproof, 12-hour wear and natural-looking fuller brows.

tarte's Big Ego Sketch & Set is a two-in-one eyebrow pencil and tinted gel designed to make filling, shaping and setting brows quick and precise. The slim, micro-tip pencil draws hair-like strokes to define sparse areas, while the tinted gel with a tiny comb tints, tames and locks hairs in place. The formula is vegan, cruelty-free and formulated without parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, triclosan, SLS and gluten.

How precise is the ultra-slim pencil for defining brows?

The pencil uses a micro tip that creates very fine, hair-like lines so you can mimic natural brows or sharpen an arch. It’s easy to control for light strokes or slightly deeper definition without a thick, blocky look.

• Micro-tip draws single hair strokes for realistic fill
• Skin-friendly pigments blend seamlessly with natural hairs
• Twist-up design keeps the tip protected and ready

Will the tinted gel keep my brows in place all day?

The tinted gel includes a tiny comb to separate and coat individual hairs, helping color and structure last through daily activities. The formula advertises 12-hour wear and resistance to water, smudging and sweat for durable hold without stiffness.

• Microcomb grooms and evenly distributes tint
• Tint adds subtle depth for thicker-looking brows
• Reliable hold keeps shape without a crunchy finish

What ingredients support brow health in this product?

tarte adds plant-forward ingredients to condition brow hairs while you wear the product. These components help maintain the look and feel of brows without unnecessary harsh additives.

• Babassu oil nourishes and softens brow hair
• Amazonian clay enhances pigment adherence for truer color
• Vitamin E acts as an emollient and antioxidant

How do I use the two ends together for best results?

Start with the micro-tip pencil to sketch light, hair-like strokes in sparse areas and define the arch. Finish with the tinted gel comb to blend pencil strokes into real hairs, add color and set the shape for long-lasting wear.

• Fill gaps and outline shape with the pencil first
• Brush through with the gel to blend and add tint
• Reapply tiny amounts for buildable coverage, not heavy blocks

Who is this for: Anyone looking for a compact, travel-friendly brow solution that combines precision drawing and lasting hold. It’s suited to people who prefer a natural, hair-like finish, users who need water- and sweat-resistant wear, and beauty shoppers seeking vegan and cruelty-free options. Ideal for quick daily routines, on-the-go touch-ups, and anyone who wants fuller-looking brows without heavy products.
