Mellow Brow Definers Review

Being someone who overplucked their brows in the thin trend days of the 90’s, I always love a good brow product. There are a few out there but unfortunately in my opinion, this isn’t one of them! The triangular tip just doesn’t do the trick for me and doesn’t give the precise application that I want. It is quite a thick, dry formula which is fine but when applying with a wedge tip, it is difficult to manouvre. At $18 Rrp, I feel there are way easier to apply pencils that deliver a more precise and polished look.

I love the fact that this brow definer has a spoolie on the other side. Cute, sleek packaging.

The formula is very creamy but I find it really hard to get a sharp defined line. The formula is so creamy that it sort of cloggs up in your brow hairs and makes them look really blocked. But this is where the spoolie comes in handy. Once you brush your hairs through your brows look ok again and less blocked.

I prefer my brow pencils to be less creamy and with a pointier tip.

The product did last throughout the day but rubs off VERY easily, which is not ideal.

Overall I won't be purchasing anymore of these, as I like my brow pencils to be less creamy and have more staying power

I have this in the shade Caramel which is a beautiful, neutral-toned medium brown. After using this for a while my verdict is: Meh, it's okay.

The positives: The formula is very creamy and smooth. I find that the colour lasts well and survives through a full day of work plus a cardio workout without smudging. I love that the spoolie on the end has its own cap which keeps it nice and clean and better to travel with.

The negatives: The problem I found with this product is that it's only good if you want a really soft looking brow. If you want defined edges, hair-like brush strokes or sharp lines you're out of luck as the tip of the gel pencil gets very rounded after the first use. The formula is not the easiest to blend out if you accidentally overdo it and end up depositing too much colour in one spot. This is the kind of gel pencil that will run out quickly. I will use the whole thing up but will most likely not repurchase (but I'll definitely keep the spoolie!)

Use it if: you want natural but full-looking brows. I wear it to work when I want a softer look.

Don't use it if: you want sharp, well defined brows.

I love the packaging and the overall look of this brow definer. I love that it comes double sided one end with a cute little brush and the other end pencil tip! It has a cute little shape to the pencil tip almost like that of a slim triangle it so good for imitating hairs so easily at with every stoke i love it...the formula is also great and does hold for a long while. This is perfect for perfecting brows!!!

I found the Mellow Brow definer to give a soft natural brow effect. Perfect for those more natural loving brow fans. The spoolie at the end made combing through the product easy and great for grooming brows before and after application. I did have to use a bit more product than I would have liked to achieve the same effect as the Pomade, but all round a good natural brow product. Perfect for my Mum.

The mellow brow Definer is a nice wee product. It has a wind up triangular shaped pencil on one end and a built-in brow brush on the other - super handy. This product is or a much more gentle colour fill than a pomard, so it is really designed to consolidate a already well shaped brow rather than creating a bold sharp "insta" brow. I personally didn't find the triangular shape to be helpful as it dulls very quickly, but it didn't hinder application either. The pencil has quite a waxy texture so I found it best to use a light touch and work in small strokes rather than attempt any bold sharp lines. In terms of price I think it's fair and stands up well to others of the price point. Whilst I don't love this product for myself, I can see using it for my clients who already have s good shape and fullness. Good for a soft brow look.

Great tapered angled definer. I loved using the Mellow Brow Definer as I found the angled head made the product easy to apply. It covers a large area of brow at a time so you only need to be light when applying and not press too hard. It was super creamy, (I find with a lot of creamy products they slip through the day BUT NOT THIS ONE!) I did find it difficult getting a sharp crisp edge with this product however when trying it with a thinner tip pencil on the outline the definer looked stunning. The twisting function for extra product is a great idea as you don’t use too much and you don’t need a sharpener! The spoolie on the opposite end makes it easy to give a more natural look and helps blend the product through from tip to end.

I picked this up in the last vault and was delighted to find it was the perfect shade for my brows.

It comes in the same style long black rectangular box as several of Mellow's products and the definer is encased in a shiny black plastic with lids at each end.

At one end is a brow brush and at the other end is the crayon, which is triangular tipped, but becomes less so over time when using the crayon. The crayon goes on with a mid-intensity but can be made bolder or softer easily. It is also easy to control and remove.

I found it only just lasted me the day, but that it also gave me the best look in the shortest amount of time.

I would probably try a different brand next time, but would consider repurchasing.

I don't at all know why, but I wasn't expecting much from this product, which I picked up in the August vault.

Low expectations, but within a few uses I was reaching for it quite often over my usual two step routine of brow mascara and a finer pencil. I still go that option for a proper face, but for every day, this is fantastic.

I have black brows, and the shade 'mocha' works nicely to fill them in without it being a solid line of Bert-the-muppet black.

The triangular shape allows for easy shaping, as a small flick of your wrist brings either the point or the flat to the front. The waxy formula transfers easily but also stays well, and cleans up easily with a cotton bud or finger tip if it gets on skin.

Results are natural looking, but still relatively polished, and super simple to achieve.

I'll be repurchasing, and am pleasantly surprised to find something i like for such a good price.

I received this in a Beauty Vault in the shade Mocha. I have used a few of Mellow's products before, and I have been satisfied with all of them, this brow pencil was no exception.

Of the different brow products available, I personally prefer a soft, waxy brow pencil like this over gels or powders. It comes in a double-ended black tube. One end has a spoolie, and the other has the brow pencil. This pencil is waxy, so it helps to hold the hairs in place. The triangular shape of the pencil also helps with defining and shaping the brow, and makes it easier to draw the pigment on. The shade Mocha is an ashy dark brown. Although it is too dark for my colouring (I am pale with blonde hair) I enjoyed using this pencil as the colour is nicely pigmented and easy to apply.

The pencil winds automatically, and does not need sharpening. The spoolie is easy to use, and combs the colour nicely through the brows. In a lighter colour I think this would be the perfect brow product for me.
