Brow-riffic!

I have never owned an eyebrow product prior to receiving one in the BRBB, but I was more than happy to give this a whirl. The sleek, thin pencil like tube was really interesting, and it took me a minute to work out how to operate it.

The pencil is a brown color, and it is universal so anyone can use it whether they have blonde, brown, or black hair. First application seemed nice, I didn't push too hard out of fear of making myself look stupid, and my brows turned out okay. I especially liked the spooly on the end, I think that's what makes this product awesome.

I've stopped using it purely for the fact that I think the color is too dark for me, as I tend to press far to hard (which isn't hard at all) and it drives me bananas. It is a lovely pencil, but I will be gifting mine and all its glory to someone who I know will love it more than I can!

Billion Dollar Brows Universal Brow Pencil

This is just so so easy to use and blends in really well with my natural eyebrow colour. I have never used eyebrow pencils before and got mine in the beauty box. This is one product I didn't see the point in but after using it I certainly do now. It really makes a huge difference to my eyebrows and completes the makeup. I like that you can just twist it and not have to get out a pencil sharpener to sharpen it. Its like a creamy texture to apply which makes it easy.

Tips: Only need a small tip of it to apply it, don't need to unwind too much.

BDB Universal brow pencil

I got this in the BRBB and have been using it almost daily since. I wouldn't say that I've managed to get my eyebrows 'on fleek' but this really does help to make them look a lot better than they do au natural. I love the fact that it is a retractable pencil, so there is no need for a sharpener, and that it has a spooly brush attached to it. The colour is a good match for me, gives a little bit of colour to my brows without making it look obvious that I've used a product on them. The consistency of the pencil makes it easy to just lightly go over my brows to fill them in enough to make a difference. I think I would buy this again when this one runs out.

My Perfect Everyday Brow Pencil

Love this pencil! I use this everyday as it has every product I need for my brows on it. I never thought this would suit me as the shade was universal but its perfect for me! Its soft and creamy and blends well. I will definitely be re-purchasing!

3D Brows made easy!

I was very lucky to get one of these in the March beauty review beauty box, this was one of those products that I had been wanting to try for months but hadn't yet purchased. It was one of the first products I tried in the BRBB.

It is a long silver pencil. Compared to the size of other eyebrow pencils this one is definitely bigger! I find because of the colour of the pencil its easier to find with the other pencils I have stored in a jar.

One side has a short haired mascara brush, I like this brush because it is dense you can push the product around more and it moves your eyebrows with a bit more force.

Normally I brush my eyebrows first, add the pencil and then brush my eyebrows again. Once I am happy with the shape of them I use the mascara brush to push the product towards the front of the eyebrow and create a slight "fade" then I brush my eyebrows upwards in the front and conceal the outsides of my eyebrows with either concealer or foundation.

The formula of the pencil is a mystery to me. It goes on light but it works well. I don't like how thick the pencil tip is as I find it hard to get a precise tail for my eyebrows so what I do now is rub the pencil onto an angled brush and use that to create a thinner eyebrow tail.

The stay power is good, you can gently rub over your face and they stay put. If you don't touch your eyebrows all day they will look perfect from morning until night.

Second best for me

I found what I deemed my Holy Grail in Brow pencils... but alas this wasn't what arrived in my March BRBB but I have to admit I was eyeing it up before my previous find... so I gave it a shot.

First impressions: It has a waxier consistency to what I am used to and it took a bit of time to get my brows right. My brows are sparse at best and this pencil actually pulls hairs away as I am applying it, not the brush part but the pencil to which I was only pressing lightly... that made me a bit anxious! and to make sure it wasn't just a growth cycle effecting it.. a week later and more hairs on the end of the pencil...eeek

So I put it aside and came back again recently to give it another shot. I sat down when I wasn't rushed or needing to be anywhere and just had a bit of one on one time with it... this seemed to work better for me, so I agreed to give it another chance (I am a hard woman lol).

So after using this for a while am I converted? well not quite.. I don't mind it but I just don't love it. The colour is a bit too weak for me and it's not as build-able as I would like, the consistency is waxier than I prefer and makes my brows feel weighted (probably not a bad thing just not what I am used to), And I am still concerned over the amount of hairs it takes with application. The brush is nice and firm though and it does a good job prepping the brows and afterwards for a more natural look.

I am just a bit underwhelmed by it instead of loving it like I had hoped. I will keep it as a back up but I don't see me re-purchasing it anytime soon.

I've never seen it in-store here and I'm very much a 'play with it first' girl x Keen to know if there is a stockist in Aucks!

Sounds like a nice plan. There are still stockists here in NZ and some great online discount offers (with codes) on the forum. I hope you enjoy your trip :)

BDB Brow Pencil

I received this in the BRBB, What a good score this pencil is silver and slim it has a double sided brush at one end and the colour pencil at the other end that you just twist out like a lipstick. I have dark brows that are just starting to get abit sparse. This pencil fills them in nicely and the colour seems to be good too it is a medium brown that just blends in great it is also very easy to use. It is super light and easy to carry for any touch ups you might need but I found it lasts the whole day easily good value for money.

Tips: It sure beats the old toothbrush I used to use to tidy my brows

Holy brows!

After receiving this in the March Beauty Review Beauty Box, I can now say I have found my holy grail eyebrow stylist tool! I have seen this brand around for awhile and thought it is great quality, a wee bit of a luxury item, so I was really stoked to see it in the Beauty Box! (we really are spoilt here) I love the packaging, quite glamourous in the chic silver pen, the wax stick is in a wind up/down pen, and there is the best little spoolie on the other end to groom your brows, before, during and after the brow process. I completely under estimated this little spoolie on the end, it does the best job ever! Makes each and every stray hair get back into place, effortlessly blends the waxy pencil out, and keeps them in place, all day long! I need to see if they sell those separately! It is really that great.

I was a bit confused about the whole 'universal brow" pencil colouring, but once I used it I took that straight back, its like this little pencil is made for me, it fills them in with no fuss, the perfect colour! I tend to go lightly feather the tool through the sparse bits and go a bit deeper through the ends, then blend it all out with the spoolie. And I am no expert at makeup in the least bit! This has just made me so much more confident in doing my brows, I feel as if its perfect for me, no mistakes, by going to dark like what can happen with powders very easily, it has enough grip in the wax pencil to keep those brows in place, and it has a good amount of product in there too.

I will purchase this again, and again! Thanks BRBB! Thanks for bringing this into my life, total game changer

Empeccable Eyebrows

This is the first brow crayon that I’ve tried. I was sceptical when first trying this, I have quite dark brows as it is, and was afraid of filling them in, in case they looked far too bold and dark. Even though it is a universal brow product I still thought it would be too light for me. Needless to say, this product glides on super smoothly and looks perfect and natural. I was really impressed with this product and how it looks on my brows! I have had so many compliments on my brows and it lasts the entire day (even though sometimes I scratch or touch them), with or without brow gel over top. Once it is n, it doesn’t really smudge either which I love. The crayon is soft and waxy, so glides on and blends in with ease. The spoolie is also a godsend, it is so good for blending and distributing the product evenly. It’s also really buildable, I usually do the front very lightly and the middle and tail end darker, by going over it more and pressing a bit harder. I get flawless brows every time. The packaging is really simple and classic, the size of the crayon is easy to hold and control and the product is easy to wind up. The silver colour makes it really easy to find amongst all my other eye pencils and it is slightly taller than the rest of them too. It is a bit pricey in my opinion, but it's def worth it! I just literally love this and it is a staple in my make up collection.

Tips: Use the spoolie! It's great for grooming beforehand, but it also distributes and blends the product through really well, giving a natural look.

BDB universal brow pencil

This is the first time I have had a brow crayon. I'm still getting used to it, I feel it comes in very dark, maybe a bit dark for me. My technique isn't 100% but I'm just not sure on this product. I liked it if I made a mistake it does come off quite easily. I love the look of this product though, it's luxury and high end looking with the silver pencil. I've heard really good things abou my this item so I'll keep trying to perfect but at the moment it's a bit too dark for my skin tone.
