Mellow Brow Definers Review

Great tapered angled definer. I loved using the Mellow Brow Definer as I found the angled head made the product easy to apply. It covers a large area of brow at a time so you only need to be light when applying and not press too hard. It was super creamy, (I find with a lot of creamy products they slip through the day BUT NOT THIS ONE!) I did find it difficult getting a sharp crisp edge with this product however when trying it with a thinner tip pencil on the outline the definer looked stunning. The twisting function for extra product is a great idea as you don’t use too much and you don’t need a sharpener! The spoolie on the opposite end makes it easy to give a more natural look and helps blend the product through from tip to end.

I have this in the shade Caramel which is a beautiful, neutral-toned medium brown. After using this for a while my verdict is: Meh, it's okay.

The positives: The formula is very creamy and smooth. I find that the colour lasts well and survives through a full day of work plus a cardio workout without smudging. I love that the spoolie on the end has its own cap which keeps it nice and clean and better to travel with.

The negatives: The problem I found with this product is that it's only good if you want a really soft looking brow. If you want defined edges, hair-like brush strokes or sharp lines you're out of luck as the tip of the gel pencil gets very rounded after the first use. The formula is not the easiest to blend out if you accidentally overdo it and end up depositing too much colour in one spot. This is the kind of gel pencil that will run out quickly. I will use the whole thing up but will most likely not repurchase (but I'll definitely keep the spoolie!)

Use it if: you want natural but full-looking brows. I wear it to work when I want a softer look.

Don't use it if: you want sharp, well defined brows.

Now I love a good brow pencil and I don't just settle for anything for myself. I really liked the classic black packaging and the winding up and down of the pencil was effortless. The pencil has a triangular tip to suit to which part of the brow you are applying it to which made it very easy to use. The colour glided on very smoothly and a light hand is needed to get great results. I usually like to give myself a natural but semi defined look and I achieved this very quickly and it looked fab! The colour didn't smudge or move all day but can smudge a little if you're a face toucher. You can build up from the nice soft look that looks super natural or a stronger more derfined look quickly and easily. I have used many different brow pencils in the past and I was extremely happy with the look that this pencil gave me. The price point is great and I will definately be recommending this to this to my friends and colleagues.

Being someone who overplucked their brows in the thin trend days of the 90’s, I always love a good brow product. There are a few out there but unfortunately in my opinion, this isn’t one of them! The triangular tip just doesn’t do the trick for me and doesn’t give the precise application that I want. It is quite a thick, dry formula which is fine but when applying with a wedge tip, it is difficult to manouvre. At $18 Rrp, I feel there are way easier to apply pencils that deliver a more precise and polished look.

The mellow brow Definer is a nice wee product. It has a wind up triangular shaped pencil on one end and a built-in brow brush on the other - super handy. This product is or a much more gentle colour fill than a pomard, so it is really designed to consolidate a already well shaped brow rather than creating a bold sharp "insta" brow. I personally didn't find the triangular shape to be helpful as it dulls very quickly, but it didn't hinder application either. The pencil has quite a waxy texture so I found it best to use a light touch and work in small strokes rather than attempt any bold sharp lines. In terms of price I think it's fair and stands up well to others of the price point. Whilst I don't love this product for myself, I can see using it for my clients who already have s good shape and fullness. Good for a soft brow look.

We were sent this in the shade caramel - too light for my natural brows, but I still had fun trialing it, and have already repurchase in my dark shade!

The triangle tip seems a bit divisive among reviewers. Personally I loved it - it allowed me to pencil and fill in my brows from all angles.

The colour payout is easy to control, from deep and full, to light, feathery flicks. Its easy to blend out with a spoolie if you are a little heavy handed.

The colours lasts until its makeup removing time, but removes easily with minimal rubbing.

I was lucky enough to pick this up in this vault and just in time too because I had run out of my brow pencil.

It comes in a beautiful box and looks super luxurious. It comes in a wind up triangular shape which is the first time I've used this. I was initially not the biggest fan but I'm getting used to it and quite enjoy the longer strokes it makes.

I like that it's a bit of a drier, waxy consistency, it means it is harder to over apply and get thick, dark eyebrows. I like making small strokes rather than just colouring them in. The drier consistency also helps it last, and I find that it lasts through some showering too which is unheard of for me!

The winding up is effortless and it comes in sleek packaging. I like the spoolie on the end so you can brush it through to reduce harsh lines.

Overall a fantastic brow product, with a good shade range and am definitely repurchasing after I run out!

I picked this up in the last vault and was delighted to find it was the perfect shade for my brows.

It comes in the same style long black rectangular box as several of Mellow's products and the definer is encased in a shiny black plastic with lids at each end.

At one end is a brow brush and at the other end is the crayon, which is triangular tipped, but becomes less so over time when using the crayon. The crayon goes on with a mid-intensity but can be made bolder or softer easily. It is also easy to control and remove.

I found it only just lasted me the day, but that it also gave me the best look in the shortest amount of time.

I would probably try a different brand next time, but would consider repurchasing.

I don't at all know why, but I wasn't expecting much from this product, which I picked up in the August vault.

Low expectations, but within a few uses I was reaching for it quite often over my usual two step routine of brow mascara and a finer pencil. I still go that option for a proper face, but for every day, this is fantastic.

I have black brows, and the shade 'mocha' works nicely to fill them in without it being a solid line of Bert-the-muppet black.

The triangular shape allows for easy shaping, as a small flick of your wrist brings either the point or the flat to the front. The waxy formula transfers easily but also stays well, and cleans up easily with a cotton bud or finger tip if it gets on skin.

Results are natural looking, but still relatively polished, and super simple to achieve.

I'll be repurchasing, and am pleasantly surprised to find something i like for such a good price.

Love this, just finished my first pencil,stayed on all day until makeup off time, non greasy, definitely will be repurchasing
