Let's face it: Brows ARE the frames of our eyes. So, they either make or break our whole look.
The shape, the color, the density of our brows can turn us from a fairy princess to a villain, just like that.
Of course, opinions differ on how "perfect" our brows should be, when made-up. Others claim they should look like sisters, others they should look like twins.
It's a matter of personal taste, really. There are plenty of videos and posts on how to pluck/groom your eyebrows, so you can go ahead and just google them up if that is what you need. Because what we will do, is put some easy-to-perfect-your-brow-pencils to the test.
Shall we?
I'm showcasing 4 pencils today. The 3 of them are brow pencils the other one is a normal eye pencil that I have also used to style my brows.
#1: Essence Kalinka (LE)- Babushka me eyebrow styler
Pros: Great color, all-in-one pencil with a brush and wax tip, cheap, long lasting
Cons: Limited edition, regular to small size pencil (since there's the wax end)
#2: MAC- Lingering
Pros: Propelling packaging-needs no sharpening, great color/pigmentation, user friendly, long lasting
Cons: Finishes quickly, on the pricier side
#3: Radiant Professional Powdery Brow Definer 04 Chocolate
Pros: Huuuge, great pigmentation, brush included, reasonable price
Cons: Color runs darker, and warmer toned, too pigmented (?)
#4: Dorothy L Waterproof eyeliner 062
Pros: Nice color/pigmentation
Cons: Not so long lasting
#1: essence : brown, leans olive #2: MAC : brown taupe-y #3: Radiant: dark brown #4: Dorothy L : taupe gray |
It's not easy to grade them, so I'll just admit that from the above pros&cons, and mainly on how they show/last on me, I prefer the Essence one the best!
Correction: I like the Lingering the best, but Essence comes first because I get the same result with the 1/5 of the price!
What do you think?
Tried the above already?
What's your holy grail eyebrow pencil?
