Hey Lovelies ♥
Wax on the left & Powder on the right
You may have seen this pop up in my favourite's post last week (here), I’ve
been using this for a couple of months so I feel like I can give a nice
fair review on this now.
Before I got this I
had always used the Rimmel brow pencil in extra dark, My hair is actually not that dark
but if I go for a lighter colour it always looks orangey on me and unnatural.
Does anyone else find that?
With this kit you get a nice thickish wax to set them naughty
eyebrows, which don’t do as they’re told, and also a powder to set the wax.
These swatches are super heavy which is why they look so dark but
you can also get a nice natural finish if you use a lighter hand which is what i opt for.
I don’t use the powder all that much, I use the tiniest bit to
settle the wax to help it last that little bit longer but i prefer the wax to the powder. So does it last all day?
Well honestly - no not really, a good several hours I’d say if you don’t touch or smudge it.
You get two little brushes and the cutest pair of tweezers which aren’t
actually that bad. The brushes are ok, they are usable but they are just so
tiny it’s hard to get a good grip on them.
This is really good stuff, I use it most days (some days I’m just
a lazy bum) and it hasn't made a dent at all yet so I see it lasting for absolutely
ages - years? decades? This is so much better than a brow pencil its gives a nice finish whether it's natural or bold.
I haven’t tried the elf brow kit or the benefit browzings but this
one is in the middle at £7.99 and I’m happy with it and would repurchase :)
I'm going to have to try this brow kit! I really like filling mine in, I use the Wet n Wild brow kit $3.00

aww thank you ill check it out :~) xx
DeleteThe colors come out beautifully strong, I like that. I also find with lighter pencils, it can turn orange :/ I've tried benefit's browzings and IMO it isn't worth the price tag. You can get much cheaper alternatives like this one or MUA's Pro Brow kit.

In the winter I use a matte brown eye shadow to fill in my brows but since it's been going into warmer weather here I just use a clear brow gel and I'm all good :D
