This was my first brow pencil that I have ever used, I generally stick to Browtox by Napoleon Perdis which is an eyebrow gel. I received this in my March beauty box, and at first I didn't like it as I wasn't used to it. But after I have played around with it, I love it for a quick everyday natural brow look and save my 'Browtox' for a more precise brow look. I love the fact you can just wind the product up, hate having to sharpen beauty products as I feel you lose so much product. It is amazing how it is universal and even though I have blonde hair it still looked amazing on my brows. The formula is very creamy and I find it easy to create my desired look. I will always use the brush at the other end to smooth it all out at the end and I find this helps to create a more natural look with the product. It does last all day but I would recommend using another product to set your brow hairs if needed.

I received this brow pencil in the "Take Back Your Brows" kit from the Billion Dollar Brows website and it has replaced all other brow pencils in my makeup collection.
It's a nice, soft pencil with a somewhat creamy-wax formula. I'm not sure how much pencil is in it exactly as I haven't hit pan on it and there is a spoolie on the other end but it seems to be lasting well so far!
I use it lightly on my brows and the spaces between the brow hairs so there hasn't really been much need for the pencil to have a sharp point but I do appreciate that I'm not losing any product by having to use a sharpener on it.
The thing I don't like about the BDB brow pencil is the overall length. Having the spoolie on the end makes it really long so I quite often hit my mirror with the end during application. Having the pencil without a spoolie would make a huge difference, making it so much more manageable.
I recommend using it with a light touch and then building up to the colour you want as it's easier to add more than it is to take away.
I'll definitely repurchase this pencil, especially if they every bring out a version with no spoolie on the end.
Tips: Apply lightly and build up to your desired colour.
I received this eye pencil in my March beauty box, this is the first eyebrow pencil I have used, in the past I've only used an eyebrow gel as I get my eyebrows tinted. This pencil works really well with my eyebrow colour, it helps shade in the gaps in my brows and makes my brows have more definition and shape. I find it lasts all day. This blends really well with my eyebrows and the formula is nice and creamy. I would definitely repurchase this eye pencil, it does everything I need in an eyebrow pencil!
I'm a newbie to brow things, but I love this pencil. It is creamy without making your eyebrows look silly, and the perfect colour. You simply use more if you have darker eyebrows, which is perfect for a blonde like me!
The spoolie on the end is what really makes it worth it, as it is perfect for brushing the product through your brows, and making them look great!
Brows have been something that I have been trying to work on recently. It's not my strong point. I was stoked to see this pencil in the BRBB as it was another product to try.
The pencil is slim and sleek...but it's really long. Too long for my make up bag. There is a spooley at one end and the pencil winds out the other end. It's a nice formula, hard to explain it being just right - some are to soft and smear everywhere and some are too tough and don't seem to put any product out. This one is a happy middle.
The idea behind the colour is using a gentle application to build up to darker - unfortunately for someone just starting out with brows this wasn't the right thing for me. I was heavy handed and even when I tried my best to be light handed it just felt like my brows were so much darker.
Based on the formula itself I would be keen to try it in a lighter colour, I liked working with it, but it just looked to bold for me. I happily gave this away to a friend that I'm sure it will work much better for.
This universal brow pencil packs a quick punch to your eyebrows if you wany something quick and on the go.
I recieved this in the BRBB
I have quite dark thick eyebrows so fortunately for me i have never really felt the need to use brow pencils or fillers, although seeing this in the box i gave it a try and was impressed with how easy it was to apply.
I found it very functional, easy to use it is water resistant therefore it doesnt smear and suprisingly was a match for my dark brows!!
I liked this pencil for its functinality.
Tips: If you have light brows this product is probably not for you but for the darker fuller brow girls i reccomend to try this product out.
Haven't regularly used an eyebrow pencil but my eyebrows seem to be thinning as I get older!! Also decided to reshape eyebrows into an arch so needed a pencil and dug out the one supplied in BRBB. Didn't quite believe that the colour would be universal but does seem to work. The consistency is quite waxy so as well as adding gives some control. Added extra if spoolie in the other end helps with shaping and evening out the colour.
Tips: Long lasting but mistakes are easy to remove
Being blonde and having fair eyebrows, I have never used an brow pencil before as I always thought it would look too dark. But recently, and to my horror, I have noticed that my eyebrows are starting to turn grey. I received the bdb pencil in my beauty box and decided it was a sign. I was pleased with the softness of the pencil and it was very easy to apply - although I was very careful to apply lightly as I still don't want a dark colour. I was surprised with what a difference it made - it covered the grey strands really well. I liked the roll up pencil and the brush was great too and smoothed everything into place. The two downsides for me were the colour and the length of the pencil. Although I applied the pencil VERY lightly, the colour was still a bit too dark so I would have preferred a lighter colour. The pencil was just too long to fit in my makeup bag but this is not a deal breaker for me.
Tips: . Apply very lightly until you reach your desired colour
Ok, I'm probably too old to get away with saying fleek but this pencil does amazing things for my brows. I've used this every single day since I got it and have not wanted to use any of my other brow products. That's saying something because I usually get bored using the same product everyday. I have just over a cm of product left and already repurchased a back up about a month ago.
The packaging of this is really nice. It's silver and sturdy. It has a spoolie brush on one end and the twist up product on the other end. The spoolie works perfectly to comb my brows before I start and is also great for combing in the product at the end so it looks more natural.
The color is a perfect match for me. It's a slightly cool toned medium brown. You can build it up to get it a bit darker too. I have dyed black hair and I don't think my brows look too light for my hair with this product. This I supposed to be a universal pencil but I don't think it would work that we'll for blonde hair unless you use a butterfly touch and comb it out well. If you have any shade of brown hair, this product is for you.
I do use an eyebrow gel to set my brows but on the times that I've forgotten it, my brows still say in place. I think the product is slightly waxy so it keeps the hair in place.
I don't really have downsides to this product, on it ison the expensive side but if you search you can find it cheaper online plus it will last ages. I've been using this for 2 or 3 months now. The tip is thin, slightly thinner might be better to get a sharper point at the tips but this isn't a deal breaker for me. I really do love this pencil and won't cheat on it anytime soon.
This product was recommended to me by a friend - and I wasn't sure how easy it was going to be to use, and to ensure even brows each time. Its very easy to apply and the colour match to my natural colour is perfect. The brush applicator really helps to create a natural look and its now become the only beauty application I use even on makeup free days.
The only downside is that it wipes off a little too easily, however there are applications to set brows so that will be my next purchase.
