REVIEW: ANASTASIA DIPBROW POMADE



ANASTASIA DIPBROW POMADE - SEPHORA OR CULT BEAUTY 

I recently got back from America, it's gone so fast! Whilst I was there I did some serious shopping most of which was in Sephora, we don't have a Sephora here in the UK so there was some must have products that I wanted to pick up one of which was Anastasia dipbrow pomade. I now know you can also get on Cult Beauty and they deliver to the UK which is great. Sephora do ship to the UK but I think theres a minimum spend.

Dipbrow Pomade is one of those blogger must haves that everyone seems to rave about but then you read some mehh reviews about. I had heard mixed reviews so I wasn't sure about buying it however I went rather CRAZY whilst in the US and just bought everything on my list haha. 

Dipbrow Pomade is a brow product, It's kind of like a wax. You apply it to your brows for that filled in effect. I use the Ecotools brush to apply it, the brush is from one of the Starter sets, I'm pretty sure its an angled liner brush however its perfect for brow products. You literally need a tidy bit of product, a little goes a long way! I tend to start mid brow because you don't want loads of product at the start of your brow, I then pull the product along the brow to create my arch and then fill in the start of the brow so its not really filled in as much.

It's seriously so so easy to use! I have been using Anastasia Brow Wiz aswell, so I start with Brow Wiz to draw the lines I want to stay within, this creates that neat line under the brow and then use dipbrow to fill. 

I have to say I love both products and I will repurchase! I know there's similar products that are easier to get hold of but now i've found Cult Beauty stock them I know I will be buying both products again. 







REVIEW: COLLECTION WORK THE COLOUR EYEBROW KIT



Collection work the collection eyebrow kit - £3.99 - Boots 


I picked up this eyebrow kit the other day because I'm always on the look out for a good brow kit. I don't tend to spend much on brow kits because once the wax is gone I tend to buy a new one. This brow kit is a little bit different, it comes with a clear mascara rather than a wax. The kit instructs to apply the powder and then use the mascara to set.

The powder is really easy to apply and you only need a small amount, i've been using the middle shade.  The mascara then sets the powder. It lasts all day long, and looks as good as other brow kits i've tried.

At only £3.99 its a great price and a good product. I don't think I would use the other colours however i'm sure other people may use them as eyeshadows or contours maybe?

I'm really happy with this little kit for the money, i'm loving some of Collections products right now, I think they have stepped it up abit.

The packaging is simple, the plastic case isn't the best, mine doesn't actually shut properly however theres a handy little mirror and its a nice size.

REVIEW : MUA PRO-BRO KIT

MUA PRO BROW KIT - £3.50


 I've used a few different brow kits before, i've used the Sleek one and the Gosh one and was a fan of both. I find the wax always runs out too quickly so I don't want to spend loads of money when I buy brow kits because once the wax is gone I end up replacing it. The Mua one was always sold out so thats why I spent the extra money and bought the Sleek one. 

It comes with a little brush, some cute little tweezers, a wax and 3 shades of powder. There's a mirror on the compact which is very handy and its rather big. 


I started by using the dark shade but now im using a mixture of the dark and medium shade for my brows. The colours are not very pigmented but I didn't really expect the best formula for the price. I apply the wax using the little brush thats included and then use my ecoTOOLS brow brush to apply the powder over the top. I'm impressed with the quality for the money as I think it's very similar to the quality of the Gosh kit and Sleek kit and they were both over double the price of the Mua kit. 


For £3.50 I will repurchase this again, hopefully I am able to get it as I've noticed superdrug is lacking in stock again. 


Have you tried this Brow Kit or is there a kit you would recommend? 

Review : Sleek Brow Kit

Sleek Brow Kit : Light 817 £8.50 

This is the first thing from Sleek that I've ever tried - It's also the first brow kit I've tried! I picked this up from the clothes show. I like to get my eyebrows threaded and I keep on top of them with the tweezers but i've never been one for using eyebrow pencils or other products. I really wanted to try the HD brows palette but have never got round to buying it. Anyway at the clothes show on friday Gemma told me about this and I bought it because I really wanted to try a brow kit. First of all the packaging !!! I love matte black make up packaging! Read any of my MAC reviews I always mention black matte packaging :) so this was a yay for me. I really love how you get the brushes and the mini tweezers making this an essential in your make up bag. I got my eyebrows done at the Clothes Show - They use the powder and the stencils and I really can't believe how much better they look because I do have really light eyebrows. My eyebrow lady is always trying to make me get them tinted but now I have this kit I really don't think its nessecary. I'll take some pictures of my brows before and after :) 
It lasts all day which is really good because you don't want your eyebrows wearing away. Overall I'm so happy I bought this and Thank you Gemma because your gorgeous brows made me want to do something with mine :) 

If you have a Brow kit and don't know what to do or you might buy this one but think it looks difficult this kit gives you a couple of easy tips and steps. 

1. Use the pigmented wax to define and shape the brow using the angled brush - this just keeps the hairs in place and makes the powder stick easier 
2. Use the blending brush to set the brow with powder
3. Use the tweezers to do any tidying up.
