As an eyebrow artist I've been using this pencil for 13 years and it is the only pencil I recommend to my clients. It truly looks just as natural on my blonde haired clients as it does on my African-American clients. Maybe it's not possible to be pH related but it is THE most neutral and natural of all eyebrow pencils I or any of my clients have ever encountered.

The link you provided to the product on their website quotes an Amazon review from January 2009, but the Amazon page has zero reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Brenda-Christian-Universal-Brow-Definer/dp/B001RVJNEU The Amazon page also claims that it's recommended by the American Journal of Esthetic Medicine...which does not turn up on Google.

I believe this is because the shadow of a hair on your skin would be taupe.You are creating the effect of the shadow of a (nonexistent) hair. Killingxspree--my brows are long and sparse and (mostly) too dark as well. I brush them up, trim them, and then fill in with taupe shadow and or pencil. I then fix them in place with brow gel. Anastasia Brow Gel is the stiffest I've tried, and comes in tints if your brows are graying, as mine are. I imagine a good hair gel would work fine with a spoolie brush you can buy cheaply at Sonia Kashuk at Target, but I like the convenience of the applicator and tube.
