The Brow Game is ON!

This is my second ever eyebrow pencil (i'm 39). And I love it! the first required sharpening, wonderful I dont need to worry about that any more. The real winning points are: no more worrying about buying the exact right colour - it just works! Super thin 'lead' so easy to target just the right places & build up. Clear cap on the brush. Good click for the pencil end cap. The pencil won't get smaller as you use it up, so the appication feels the same in your hand EVERY day! I'm not sure I would pay $33 for it, but if it was on special... have to see how long it lasts.

Surprising All Rounder

I will be honest. I didn't think this would work for every colour. I didn't think colour would be buildable. But here I am. A week ago with brown hair, now with red hair, using the same pencil, and it still matches. How that happens, I have no idea, but it really does seem to match any colour. I don't love pencils, especially since I can't 'sharpen' it so don't find I can always get the cleanest line or precise point, but for a pencil, if I had to use one, it would be this.

Tips: It does seem to fade a bit if you don't set it, a bit of brow gel or hairspray if you're a cheap ass like me, will work wonders :)

Ideal for non-blonde brows

I think the thing that I love the most about the BRBB is that you get to try products that you probably wouldn't have picked otherwise. I love what I have seen of the Billion Dollar Brows brand from what I have seen online but have never actually purchased anything. I certainly wouldn't have purchased this as I love my brow products but wouldn't have thought a universal shade would suit me at all.

I really like the thin pencil packaging of this. I have never bought the Anastasia Brow Wiz product but this really reminds me of it. I love that the spoolie end has a clear cap and the other end a opaque lid, it means that I know what end is which when I am going to use it. Genius. The lids click on well and overall it just feels nice and high end. Good quality.

The spoolie itself works really well, brushes out your brows nicely. The pencil side initially scared me, it looks really dark. It is very thin though which is great size for drawing your brows on. The pencil is extremely waxy so it doesn't take much pressure to get the colour onto your brows. I find I do one pass of this then have to do a really aggressive brush through to get most of it off to get to a nice shade on my brows. I find the shade quite a cool tone, like it is a browny grey. This might be a wee bit too cool toned on me but I do still like it and impressed with the range of shades you can get from this one pencil. Do be careful when applying to make sure to get your shape right as I found the product is soooo pigmented it kind of makes it hard to get off, and it is attracted to every straggely hair I have if it has been a while between getting them shaped.

I am really impressed by this product and have seen it work really well on so many different skin tones and brow shades, although I think ideally it is made for darker brows than mine. On a day to day basis I am still planning on using my Benefit Brow Zings powder and wax. BUT when I am travelling this is a great all in one product and also a great product for beginners.

Makes me feel like a Billion Dollars

So before I got this product in my beauty box, I have to admit I had never actually heard of this company, but boy that is one of the reasons I am so glad I invested in the BRBB, because it gave me the opportunity to try a product I wouldn’t have known about otherwise.

This eyebrow pencil is actually the first eyebrow pencil I have ever used, and the only other eyebrow product I have use is the elf eyebrow gel/powder duo which I love. I have to admit, I find the packaging of this product cheap. It feels a bit plastic and frail and that’s something I don’t really like. Plus the silver colour of the packaging looks cheap as well. This is just my personal opinion. However thankfully, it’s what’s on the inside the counts, plus there are some design aspects that I do appreciate about this product such as the fact that this eyebrow pencil has two ends. One end has a brush, and the other end has the eyebrow pencil itself (and mine is in a dark brown colour), which works together like peanut butter and jam. Plus the pencil is retractable which means no need for sharpeners, which is awesome because who has the time for that.

The pencil itself is a dark matte brown, and creamy in consistency. It’s so easy to apply to my eyebrows and just glides so smoothly. I find it so easy to do different looks with this product as it can be used as a more natural filler, or a product to create more intense brows. I myself personally like to go for the more natural look most days, and I have to admit, I have been reaching for this product more than my Elf brow gel, which is a huge thing for me to say since I considered that an awesome product.

Overall, I think this product is pretty great. It’s easy to apply, and gives you the look your actually going for as well as being easy enough to use on a daily basis. I can’t give this a 5/5 simply because I can’t compare it to any other eyebrow pencils. However, I have an Anastasia brow wiz on my way, so once I try that, I will be able to compare this product to something, and will be able to update my review.

Oh yes

Another product from the March beauty box (and wasn't that brilliant). I would never in a million years have gone out and bought a brow pencil, even though my brows have been plucked to 'extinction' over the years leaving me with a fairly thin line to frame the eyes. (I think I have come to terms with them and have given up). The packaging is simple, but robust. No fear of popping this in your bag and lids flying off leaving make up all over. One end of the brush is a very soft wind up colour and a bristle brush on the other end to brush the brows into place. I brushed the brows and started to apply very lightly as I thought it was be very dark. Using fine stokes I 'thickened and filled' the brows ever so lightly and then used the bristle end again just to 'smudge' them. Overall effect - astounding. Definitely places emphasis on the eyes. What an amazing product.

Tips: Be gentle when colouring the brows as the colour comes out being a lot darker than you think. To avoid 'caterpillar' brows I suggest very light application (which can always be repeated if you want) at first.

holy grail pencil

I received this eyebrow pencil in the March beauty box and I have been reaching for this product every day I put on makeup.When I first read on the card it was a universal brow pencil I instantly thought it would be too light for my dark brows.

This is a retractable pencil one end and the other end has a twist brush (spooly) which you use first to brush your brows in place. I than started to fill in my brows lightly as you don't want to press too hard with this product as it is creamy and waxy. I was amazed with how the pencil matched my eyebrows perfectly. The pencil is also quite thin which makes it perfect for small detailing and even better if your a beginner to brow pencils.

I love this product to bits and will definitely be repurchasing.

Tips: Fill in your brows lightly with little stroaks as it helps to keep them looking natural and not too harsh. Also, be careful when winding up the product as it's creamy and can get stuck in the wonder. And also don't press down the product hard as that could also damage it and you don't want that

SO GOOD I OWN 3!!

Where do i begin!! this is now my HG brow product! i love the design, having the spoolie at one end, and the creamy windup pencil on the other end. Its sleek, VERY easy to use and just awesome!! I can achieve different depths of colour depending on the look im going for, lighter strokes for more natural brows, and sharper strokes for deeper 'on point' brows. its seriously so easy to use, and i think i would be lost without this in my life. totally reccomend!!

Tips: spoolie, feather stroke, spoolie again, and top with a gel!! MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN

Essential

I always seem to forget my brows in my daily routine so receiving this in my beauty box was the reminder I needed.

I loved it, the colour matches easily. The spoolie became my oppsie remover because whenever I over did it it would be lightened with enough brushing.

Sooo good

I've seen this brand advertised before and kind of scoffed at the price as I thought it was a little on the high side. After using it for just on a week I would definitely repurchase this for $33 as it works so well for me and is super easy to use.

I like that it comes in a silver tube (for ease of identification in amongst all my black tubes) and that it has a spoolie attached to the pencil.

Not having to sharpen it is another bonus, as is its creamy texture. It makes application so easy.

The colour is perfect for me, I have medium skin with dark hair and brows. As my brows are quite sparse I wondered if the formula would look too overdone but it really doesn't, unless you apply it very heavily that is. I reckon you could easily draw your brows on too thick with this, so remember to keep your strokes nice and light and you should be happy with the results. Colourwise, I wondered if universal was stretching the truth but after reading some of the other reviews, it would pretty spot on. I'm happy with the colour and the fact it doesn't have any red tones in it, its a true brown.

Thanks BR, this was just one of the gems in the March box.

For a billion dollar look

Love this brow pencil, and well worth the money. Due to illness I have very sparce eyebrows, but with this pencil I can easily build up my brows. Quick and easy to colour and groom my eyebrows every morning. Stays until I take it off. Will certainly recommend to others.

Tips: Gently strokes to build up the look.
