As always I've included a summary at the end :)
The Basics
This brow pencil is a wooden one and actually pretty long, but I can't find any info on the exact amount of product included. On the other end of the pencil there's a 'grooming' brush thing. I'm personally not that into it as it's a little scratchy, but it'd be great for travel to save space! There colour range is a little limited with just two colours available - the other is called Brunette and is pretty deep. It'd be nice to see a more ashy shade!
It does have a lid to keep it safe! |
The Formula
I was expecting this to be a little on the hard side, but actually it's really really soft. Like really soft! Infact if anything a little too soft as I find I'll need to sharpen it every couple of uses. But it does sharpen nicely! It also glides on really smoothly to the brows without dragging on the skin. The formula is 11/10 for the price, I would have happily payed 5x the price for this quality.
How it looks/How it lasts!
This is probably the first review I've done of something swatchable that I haven't actually swatched. The pictures just turned out awful - they looked green?! But anyway the pictures of it on the brows show a much more realistic colour. As you can see it is a warmer beigey brownand gives a more natural finish than a powder would. It lasts really well, with not much noticeable fading. I also find that it doesn't smudge it you accidentally give your brow a quick swipe. However if you're having a really oily day touching leads to a loss of colour!
The Good - cheap, longlasting, creamy, doesn't drag, more natural finish than a powder, quick and easy when you're in a rush.
The Not so Good - Needs frequent resharpening because it's so soft, only 2 colour options.
Would I repurchase? 100% yes! Over and over!
Who might like it? Those that like to define their brows without looking too 'done'.
The Bottom Line - Fab product, fab price, a new favourite!
I'm really really sorry about the lack of a swatch today, but I really wanted to get the review up. The colours showing up pretty accurate on the brows though. This has really become a go-to product, just a shame theres not more colour choice so there's something for everyone! Thanks for stopping by, H :)
