Not Sold On It

I was initially really stoked to be chosen to trial the L'Oréal Paris Brow Artist Plumper, i selected the dark brunette colour as my eyebrows tend to fizzle out into blonde at the end and become non existent. I use an eyebrow pencil to fill them in everyday and was hoping the plumper would replace my current eyebrow regime. However, when it arrived I was surprised to see I had received the clear one instead of brunette as requested, im guessing it was a popular shade. I knew right off I would still have to use my brow pencil for definition. The thin mascara like bottle did not come In a package so I can't comment of that, but the bottle itself is sleek, elegant and a fairly decent size for the price. Since I had never used an eye brow plumper before I had no idea how to apply it, and with no instructions with it, I pretty much had to go online to find out what how to apply it properly. The brush is just like a mini maraca wand, small and easy to use, and once I found out how to apply correctly, was very easy. The gel felt light on my brows and dried quickly. Unfortunately, it made no difference to my eyebrows at all. I didn't feel it added any volume and being clear In colour, I still had to apply my eyebrow pencil first for definition. Not something I would be keen on doing everyday. It did work well in keeping my brows in place but there are cheaper eye brow gels on the market if that's what I was looking for. I so wanted to love this product and if it was the right colour for me or my brows happened to be defined (and not fizzle into blonde) in the first place then I may have. Overall disappointing but still happy to have trialled it :)

Tips: For best effect, try a shade that matches your brows.

L'Oreal Paris Brow Artist Plumper

Ok. So I have quite sparse brows, that and brown and blonde just like my lashes.

I tend to darken my brows to make them look fuller and one colour.

I received the transperant shade to trial.

I was really hoping for the Brunette, so I could fill in my brows.

So I thought I would try the gel under my usual brow powder.

Unfortunately it leaves the gel in pieces along my brows, I do not think this would be good on dark brows alone the gel is left behind.

Best for light brows.

The gel doesn't seem to set quickly and applying powder over top works ok.

I am going to purchase the Brunette to see how that one fills in the gaps in my brows.

The gel has a pleasant scent and is very easy to apply , the short mascara wand is very easy to use along the curve of the brow.

It's really like hair gel for the brows. :)

Tips: Wait for it to set before applying brow powder lol.

Meh.

As someone who has naturally full brows, this probably wasn't a perfect product for me to purchase. However I wanted something that I could use for those days where I felt too lazy to use my Anastasia dip brow to make my brows look a little less unruly and tidier.

I have the shade medium/dark, which is a good match for my very dark brows.

The packaging for this is the same as a mascara except this has a much smaller brush than a mascara wand. This makes it ideal for getting into your brows without smearing the product everywhere. Once I have used this product up I will keep the brush as I do really like it.

This isn't super pigmented - which is kind of good as it makes it almost foolproof to use. When I use this it helps fill my brows in a little but not a whole lot. If you are looking for something to really fill them in then I wouldn't suggest this.

The biggest gripe I have with this product is the fact that it makes my brows feel crunchy after using it. I really don't like this as I like my brows for feel soft and natural - not hard and stiff.

Keeps things in place but no added plump

I own this in the transparant version and I just didn't find that it lived up to the hype. To me this is just clear gel, I didn't see any extra added to my brow. So to use it up I just apply it over another brow product to set things in place,

Tips: Might be good for people who just want to groom unruly brows, or for teens who can't wear makeup at school.

L'Oreal Paris Brow Artist Plumper Review

I was really looking foward to trying this product. I haven't tried anything like it before & the whole idea of it was pretty exciting. I had opted for the Brown, but recieved Translucent. No instructions - but wasn't worried as looked straightfoward. Liked the little wand applicator - not too big & way easier than a brush etc. I was pleasantly suprised that there wasn't any smell too. I noticed it went on kind of like a gel...but didn't really notice any plumping as such. I did notice once it dried, there were afew dired out white bits through my eyebrows - not heaps, but enough for me to notice & have to clean off. So sadly - noting really happened that I could notice...would happily try it again in a colour maybe instead of translucent, but at this stage I certainly wouldn't consider buying it or recommending it. Thanks!! :o)

Not for me - Clear Gel

I was so excited when I got the chance to try this product. Ive recently upped my brow game by getting my eyebrows tattooed.

I received the clear gel. I thought this product would just add even more awesomeness and really plump them up, after all that's in the name but it didn't do that at all.

I tried it fr a few day in a row, with and without a pencil product to see if there were better ways of using it. Unfortunately the results were all the same.

The gel felt sticky but dried ok, wasn't too stiff. I was worried it would go crispy like hairspray but it didn't. I even tested a few girls at work and the husband by just doing it to one brow, no-one could tell the difference.

I did like one thing about it, which was it does get the hairs nicely sculpted. I have long eyebrow hairs and I did keep them super tidy but that's not enough for me to re-purchase.

I would be interested to get the brown gel one to see if that's any better for me, but i'm not racing out to buy it.

not that great

I trialled the transparent brow plumper at first sight of product its very similar to mascara just a smaller brush i trialled this product for about 3 days in a row and as much as it is easy to apply i didnt find it did much apart from make my eyebrows a bit sticky i would be interested to go try the brunette as i think it would be worth a try but as a dark brunette transparent is not for me

Tips: Dont apply to much as it will make ur eyebrows sticky

Transparent Tidy Brows

I received this product to trial and requested dark, but alas was sent transparent ( I have very sparse eyebrows and was keen to see the colour build up) I actually had to google the purpose of transparent eye brow gel as I was not sure why one would need it!! My quick research led me reframing my expectations - transparent gel should set the brows and keep them tidy during the day.

The brow plumper comes in a tube and is very similar to mascara. I really liked the short stiff brush for applying the product but if it were coloured, I would have liked it to have more of an angle so that you could apply colour precisely. The product reminded me of hair gel- it felt wet and took about ten minutes to dry. Upon drying, my eyebrows felt quite stiff and almost crunchy. My eyebrows looked neat and tidy for the whole day, but I needed to add a coloured pencil so that I could fill in where my eyebrows are sparse. Would I add this to my beauty routine? The transparent one- nope. It didn't add enough magic for me to want to add yet another step to my routine. I am keen to read other reviews of the coloured brow plumpers to see if I should buy that instead.

Tips: Make sure not to apply too much- it takes awhile to dry.

Not Sold On It

I was so excited to be accepted into this trial! The L'Oreal Paris Brow Artist Plumper seemed like the perfect product! Fast, easy and would make my brows look amazeballs. Unfortunately, I found it anything but!

When it arrived, it came with no instructions at all so if you haven't used a brow product like this before you'll need to wing it or Google tutorials to get the application right. The packaging however was great. I love that the colour of the product is on the lid.

I chose the dark brown and I was very happy that it was a true cool toned dark brown. A lot of other products I've tried are very warm toned, almost reddy which isn't the look I'm going for! The wand itself I personally thought could be a smidge smaller. Maybe I just have smaller brows than most, but I struggled to apply the product to just my brows and not the skin around them also.

I found the L'Oreal Paris Brow Artist Plumper formulation to be wetter than I had imagined. It was hard to work with as it didn't go on evenly and I ended up looking like I'd wet my brows and chucked a bit of car engine grease in them LOL!

I don't know, maybe I just need more practise but I am not sold on this product. The idea of it is great, but it's just not right for me unfortunately.

Tips: - This product might not be right for you if you have thinner brows.

- Definitely Google tutorials before just diving in if you've not had any experience with this type of product before

Not too fussed.

I was lucky enough to be given the Medium/dark brow plumper, and was excited that i could try it before it hit the shelves. I love the thought of quick easy brows, as im lazy at the best of times with them. At first i didnt really know if i was using it correctly, as i didnt see any difference, other than my brows were stuck in place. After a couple of weeks or so of using it, i really couldnt love it, i watched tutorials on how to apply it, and i was using it correctly, but for me it was just not cutting the mustard unfortunalty. It may have been my brows that were the problem, but i couldnt see any more 'fullness' that i was hoping for. it was like the fibres didnt stick. another thing is if you look really closely, i could see sparkles, yes i said sparkles, well more like a really fine glitter on my brows. I asked my workmate as well if she saw them on hers and yes, she had glitter too. My guess is the fibres are the sparkly things which is meant to give you the 3D look, but it just wasnt what i was expecting. I really wanted to love this, but i cant. I will However, reccommend to people, as i think i am just one person with an opinion, I do no of others who love this. This product had potential of been amazing 'for me', but not at this moment. I may give it another go one day, but for now, i will stick to lazy brows. I hope this is better for others xx

Tips: Try before you buy, use small strokes and take your time. xx

I kind of like this product, but found that when I was taking photos with my eye up to the camera, that the little fibres rubbled off onto my camera! Such a shame...I think that I would have worn it daily if that didn't happen!

I noticed that when I swatched the blonde one but hopefully the medium/dark is sparkly on my brows. I am looking forward to trying this product as I have the australis tint my brows which is good for the price
