Billion Dollar Brows Universal Brow Pencil Review

This was included in the March beauty box and I was skeptical to begin with having never used eyebrow products before. Once a friend taught me how to actually use it, I used it every day.

This is nicely pigmented wax that blends easily and holds errant hairs without looking too fake. The built in brush is a nice size without being too unweildly since its on the other end of the pencil.

I never understood the hype behind the ABH brow wiz so when I saw the BDB pencil in the March BRBB I was excited that I would get to try something similar. I’m a regular user of the angled brush and cream eye liner / eye shadow powder for my eyebrows so it was quite different to take a pencil to my brows.

I did find it tricky to use in the first week and that’s purely because I was still getting use to it. Just like any angled brush the pencil fits nicely between my fingers so I have the control that I need to define my brows. The colour is my perfect shade and blends nicely with my skintone (reference MAC NC42-44 or Revlon Nearly Naked in Toast). Funnily enough I had no idea it was the only shade but I love the fact that it takes the guess work out of colour matching.

I haven’t had any issue with the pencil not being sharp because I tend to use it at an angle and therefore there’s always a point however I’m not too sure I agree with the claim that “it always stays sharp”. If you use it on it’s point then it will not remain sharp unless you start using it at an angle. If I make a mistake I can easily remove it with a swipe of a finger or sheer it out using the spoolie on the end.

With everyday use the BDB pencil lasted me 2 months so in terms of money; that’s approximately $15+ a month for my brows and that’s expensive to maintain. Prior to that, I had been using my elf cream liner for 4 months with barely a dent and that only cost me $5. It’s not a fair comparison because they’re different types of products but it’s just to highlight that you can still use other products to get the job done at a cheaper cost.

I would recommend this in conjunction to what you're already using. I’ve already repurchased 2 BDB pencils to use in between my elf cream liner.

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.

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.

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.

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.
