This arrived just as I finished my usual eyebrow pencil. Perfect timing, thanks BR! I received the ‘deep brown’ shade and was pleased to see it is a ‘cool’ dark brown. I’ve used a warm toned one before which made my brows look quite red! This ended up being just the right tone for me. The pencil feels quite soft when you apply it so it glides on smoothly and easily. I then blend it in with the spooley to soften the look. The spooley is firm enough that I can fully blend the pencil in with just a few strokes. The resulting look is natural with no harsh pencil lines.
Once set, this stays in place all day. No fear of accidentally wiping your brows off mid afternoon! Even at the end of the day they still stay out if I rub them. I can’t attest to whether they do stay on for 36 hours as the pencil was easily removed at the end of the day with my usual balm cleanser. I can’t actually imagine a situation where I would want to leave it on for that long, so this wasn’t an issue for me. The pencil definitely doesn’t temporarily tint your brows if that is what you’re looking for.
The only downside for me is that this isn’t an automatic pencil and you have to sharpen it. It is also cased in plastic which makes it harder to sharpen than a wooden pencil. Apart from that, I would definitely use this again if my usual eyebrow pencil wasn’t available.
I absolutely love this brow pencil.
It applies buttery smooth and has fantastic pigment to quickly and easily shape and style my brows, and the colour was my perfect match.
I love that it has a spoolie on the end so all I need is one item to get my brows sitting nice and tidy, then the pencil on the other end does a fantastic job of filling and shaping the brows to perfection.
I love how easy this is to use, it only takes a mintue or 2 in the morning to slay the brows and have that perfect face frame.
I had previously used a powder the majority of the time as I had never found a brow pencil that worked for me, but I am officially converted.
The brow pencil it very soft, which means it glides on, however it does also mean that the product goes down very quickly so I did find myself having to sharpen it almost every morning before applying.
The only down side I found packaging wise is that the lid for the pencil was very loose and did not fit securely on the pencil so I feel that if I were to put this in a make up bag for travel it would not travel well and I would end up with brow pencil on everything.
Overall its a fantastic pencil one I would happily recommend and purchase again.
