Loving My Brows <3

I received this in my December Lust have it beauty box. Im not really a huge fan of Designer Brand but when I saw this product I was really excited to give it ago. At first I wasn't really sure what expect , I never used any product that contains silk fibres.

Now im totally hooked , so easy to apply on the brows. It made my brows look natural and a lot fuller.Great to have in your bag , easy to retouch the brows now and then . I also had this on for the whole day and no trace of fibres dropped onto my make up and my brows still looking good at the end of the day. I have been looking for a product like this for a while and its so affordable. I would definitely recommend this product and you could find Designer Brand in your local pharmacy.

Tips: Just need to apply a little bit of product on the brow for more a natural look.

Effective, but not really my thing

I decided to give the Designer Brands Extend A Brow a go after receiving it in a beauty subscription box, and initially I really liked it! I have enjoyed using Designer Brands eyeliners in the past, so thought this product was worth a try.

It comes in a mascara-style tube, but instead of your typical spoolie it has an applicator with hundreds of tiny brow fibres attached! You can brush it onto your brows and they attach like real hairs.

I definitely liked the natural look this product gives you - full bodied brows with nice definition and a natural, bold colour. What I didn't like so much, however, was the slight fallout I received after a few hours of wear. I would find tiny brow fibres on my cheekbones - not the best look!

I also started to find that it was making my actual eyebrows a bit sparse - unsure if this was to do with the product, or just my imagination, but either way, I didn't want to keep using a product that I felt could be preventing my brows from behaving naturally.

Overall, a good product, but will not be continuing to use nor repurchasing.

An interesting product

I received this in my lusthaveit women's box and unfortunately it wasn't in my colour. I received the colour medium brown however it looked a lot lighter than a medium brown. If I was to get a dark brown I probably wouldn't use it as I wasn't a fan of the fibres, they seemed to get everywhere. I ended up giving mine to a friend and she said that it really made your eyebrows stand out (she prefers a more natural eyebrow) however she said she would continue to try it out

Fuller Brows

A friend of mine gave this to me as the colour was too light for her brows. The first time I tried this I wasn't too into it as it made my eye brows seem massive but after some continued use I have changed my mind.

I have this in the colour light medium which matches my brows quite well. My hair colour is a medium brown.

It comes in a clear lip gloss type tube but instead of gloss attached to the applicator wand there are dry fibres.

I apply the applicator directly to my brows and slowly brush it from the inside of my brow outwards filling my brows in. As I have naturally thin brows I only lightly fill them in so that they don't look to over the top and too full. The fibres attach to your brow easily and give a really natural look.

I haven't found this to be messy to apply. No fibres have dropped over my face as I have put it on.

I always apply a setting spray after I do my make up and I have had no problems with fibres falling onto my face during the day. I have found this brow extender to last my whole 8 hour working day.

If you do touch your brows during the day some of the product does come off so I usually keep the product in my handbag for touch ups.

Overall I really like this product and the fullness that it gives my usually thin brows. I think that it is good value for money and I would repurchase this in the future.

hmmm not the best product

I received this product in one of my monthly subscription bags to LustHaveIt.

I was intrigued by this product as I had never used a brow product before and had not seen a 'fibre' brow product before.

I have the shade 498 Medium Brown which is the perfect colour for my brows. It comes in a plastic clear tube and has a doe foot applicator. It also came with instructions on the box (simply swipe along lashes and use the angled tip for thinner parts of the brows) so I thought, wow this sounds quick and easy! This should be a good way to fill in my brows.

Every time I unscrew the lid and pull the applicator out, lots of fibres go everywhere and upon applying it to my brows, I had fibres all over my face so it's a very messy product to use. Apart from that, it was easy to apply but I could only see a small difference to my brows. During the course of the day, I would notice fibres on my clothes so possibly they were falling out which meant that this product doesn't stay put. So really I did not think it was worth it in the end.

I wouldn't recommend this produce, I personally feel that it is a waste of time. I don't want to spend the day wiping away fibres from my face and clothes. It's just too messy for me but then again, someone else might find it perfect for themselves?

Tips: Do not apply a brow gel over top of this, it will just turn into a huge mess :(

Extender Brow

I have this in medium The packaging is that of a normal mascara. With a clear bottle end that holds the product which is described as tiny fibres. So you do see the fires in the clear type bottle/vile. The dispenser is a wand and it has a brush but more of a rounded foam brush and not a bristle type as a mascara classically has. This is ingenious and simple to use. You fill in your brows as required. There is no fuss at all. Although the colour is a bit light for my naturally dark brows it didn't look odd. As for the mess factor there was none. I mean when pulling the wand out it doesn't fall everywhere as I hold the bottle upright but there are loose bits from the applicator that do whispered away. No problems once applying to brows. No fly aways or fall put during application and during the day. For me it seemed to with held the whole day. 1 thing I was sure to do was only apply in small amounts and then build up. As you would with any makeup. Light handed and build up as required. Overall an easy product to use and a no fail In my eyes. I would recommend this to a novice and especially for people who isn't need touch ups and aren't keen on redrawing or reshaping their brows themselves.

Tips: Shake of excess product and apply the in amounts to be able to build up the look you're after. Don't go straight for a heavy amount this may incur fallout and possible the look your not after.

Cheapy but a goodie

I bought this on a whim when I was desperate for eyebrow makeup on the run and didn't have time to hit my usual store. Its actually not too bad its not too messy and lasts a while. Great for sparse eyebrows like mine.

Tips: Be careful when applicating it that you don't smudge on your eyelids.

Not my thing

I'm not a big fan of this. I feel like it doesn't cling to my brows enough and ends up flaking off into my eyes :( This is not the same as those gel fibres that I've heard so many good things about - these are just loose fibres and if you even breathe on them, they go everywhere.

It's not enough to use on its own (unless you already have perfectly defined brows and just want a little extra volume in them) but my brows look way too busy if I put this over my usual brow product (ELF brow kit). I think the only way to make this work is if I did my brows with a very very light hand and used something sticky (like a brow gel) to get this to adhere properly. That just seems like too much work for what it is..

needs to be in a lighter shade

I came across this product one day while in a pharmacy, so i bought it tired it and loved it!! The fibres actually stay put and you don't get fall out into your eyes i only wish this came in a lighter shade as the lightest shade they have is light medium and I have lighter eyebrows so have to use it sparingly just so i doesn't look too dark

Tips: use a clear eyebrow gel for a more groomed look and extra staying power
