My BLONDE EYEBROWS make my mascara look odd?
My Hair, some people say, is strawberry blonde but to me its like a dark strawberry blonde..more on the orange side and Whenever i dont wear mascara I look like a ghost as my eyelashes and eyebrows are blonde and when i say blonde i mean if 1 was pure white and 10 was golden blonde mine would be 4! So i try wearing mascara and I never find a brown one that works ok for me so Im using a black one but you can still see some of my blonde eyelashes at the back. I just want to look OK for once. Any ideas on what i should do?

Well if you really can't stand it, I know you can get your eyebrows dyed at some places, but I don't know where and have you tried buying some really good quality brown mascara from a well known brand because I know that cheaper brown mascaras never work for me x x
First off, if you have blue eyes, brown mascara would look so much better!
Secondly I can't really help you with the applying of mascara over the Internet but I can tell you to make sure you get all the way down to the roots. Also do the top layer of your top lashes. (i know it's weird but it helps cover).
For the brows, I would say just fill them in. I know if you're not used to doing this... you might not know how.
But when filling them in always use a shade only a little darker than your natural color. I use brow filler (it's powder like eyeshadow) and some people use pencil.
I wouldn't start with pencil, but if you search it up on You-Tube, I'm sure you'll find some helpful tutorials.

Haha, your ordeal is a lot easier to fix than mine. I have to bleach mine once or twice a week and THEN dye them from a pale yellow to a ash blonde/light brown since my hair is white blonde.
Go to a department store and match the hair on your head as close as you can to any of the ones on the boxes... Or a shade darker, possibly a light brown/auburn would be good. This dye will last forever since you won't be using the whole box in one application [haha at least I'd hope not].
Anyway mix a little bit and make sure you get it on all your eyebrow hairs and leave it on for only about 3-5 minutes. Just watch after it as these dye fast.
Also, eyebrows fall out and grow every day so you will need to re-touch once or twice a week.
Good luck :D
Dye them. You can get a home dye kit over the counter. I do mine all the time - it makes a hell of a difference. Still wear mascara as well to lengthen and thicken but dying them will solve your problem.
Edit: having read your question again I'm confused as to whether the problem is eyeLASHES or eyeBROWS. My answer was about lashes. Don't dye your eyebrows or you'll look really strange! Just use a pencil (light brown or grey works best on blonde hair).
Search harder for a good brown mascara. Meanwhile try smudging a bit of dark brown shadow at your lash line, so that the blond ends of the lashes are covered up. Also, run a brown pencil through your eyebrows to make them less obvious. Go easy though, you could easily mess this up.
use eyeliner round the top of your lashes and put on lashings of mascara, or you could have your eyelashes and eyebrows tinted, im the same, I have naturally strawberry blonde hair but I lighten it to light blonde. I just wear tons of mascara and eyeliner and use a brown pencil to darken my brows when I go a night out!
If you don't want to dye them get an eyebrow pencil that is 1 or 2 shades darker than your natural eyebrow colour but apply it in moderation at first so you can get used to the new colour
Look for a grey mascara, and use it very lightly on your eyebrows and just a bit heavier on your lashes. Brown looks awful with your sort of colouring, and blue just looks stagey.
wear brown mascara instead
use a little mascara each time you put it on then put on more and more until you get used to it.
