Maybelline Brow Satin Review

I love this product, i've never been very good at the brow game, I have fair and thin eyebrows and the 'power' brow just looks ridiculous on me! So I needed a product that was a light colour and just something to fill in my patchy thin eyebrows. I bought this after the hype of Maybelline's brow product came and so I thought why not give it a shot, Maybelline is usually my saviour! The product comes double ended, one is like a crayon that you use to fill in, and the other end is a more richer darker colour if you want it to go over. I only use the crayon as i don't need to have darker brows. It really works for me, its easy to use, just a twist top. The thin crayon makes it easy to apply in a natural way, it doesn't go on too heavy, so if you want a heavier look you can use the other end. I've had this product for a few months now and use it every day, super happy with it!

Amazing, I wear this every time I go to an occasion, it's easy to apply. This is one of the products on my top 5 cosmetics list.

I've never really been a fan of traditional brow pencils as I feel like product is wasted when it is sharpened. I love that this minimises wasted as it's a twist up. It's so easy to use! If I'm short on time, I love using the sponge end to just fill in my brows - it looks so flawless and natural!

I found this on special when I needed a new brow pencil, and it's actually quite impressive for a 'drugstore' brand!

When I use this I use it to outline my brows and the Chi Chi Brow Pomade to fill them in. The powder end is not very useful (for me at least) as it's quite messy to use but the pencil end is perfect as it goes on easily, nice formula not too hard or easy to blend, and lasts all day easily.

Because it is a twist up pencil you never need to sharpen it, which is great for me however I do find if you drop it the pencil breaks and can fall out easily.

One thing I don't like is the range of colours, although it works for me some people just need a different sort of colour. This isn't too much of an issue as this product is 'drugstore', but I thought I'd still mention that.

I will for sure be buying this again, it's really easy to use and definitely a dupe for some more expensive brow pencils I've tried in the past.

I found the Maybelline Brow Satin to work okay - it recommends outlining with the pencil and 'colouring in' with the powder fill but I didn't find this technique worked too well for me as the powder filler was too thick and made my eyebrows look too chunky and not as defined as I like them. The lead on the pencil part broke quite easily so I ended up wasting a bit and overall the combo only lasted barely a quarter of the time a normal pencil would last. I wouldn't buy this again for these reasons. On the other hand the colour was nice and idea itself quite cool - the sponge end did work quite well for blending the insides of brows near nose but thats about it.

I got this from pak save. There was only one colour theree so I got it thinking it looked about right but it probably is a tiny bit too dark. But ignoring that, this products is a time saver for me, I either don't do my brows, or I perfect them and spend 15 mins on them, no inbetween! So now I can have an in between, I can use the sponge end and a brush and have decent looking brows in less than a minute!

I grabbed this product quickly as I had run out of my last brow pencil and needed something for the next day. I loved the sponge bit of the pencil and found the powder delivered through the brush gave the brow a more natural look while the pencil helped define the brow. I loved the color but unfortunately the pencil was brittle and pieces kept breaking off. This was a bummer as I ended up with wasted product, other than this I enjoyed this pencil.

This product makes getting awesome brows easy! The setting pencil is great for creating a clean line at the bottom of the brow, and the powder sponge tip is perfect for filling the brow in. I've always struggled using just a pencil or just powder, but this is the ideal combination of both.

This is a very slick little pencil that comes with enclosed lids at both ends - one end has a sponge tip with brow powder inside the cap and the other end has a propelling pencil that you can rotate. I like the way the powder end requires you to unscrew it to reveal a sponge tip which is dipped in the powder the sits inside the lid. The pencil end rotates and the lid clicks nicely in place. I found the pencil very effective for lightly shaping and outlining my eye brows but I found the powder tip a bit tricky. I like my eye brows to look natural and it was hard to get the right amount of powder without making my brows look overdone. So I didn’t really use the powder but used the pencil to ‘feather’ my brows. Like the other brow pencils I have tried, it smudges if you wipe your brows at the gym so you need to reapply. I found also that it didn’t last the day and did need to be reapplied to maintain the colour and shape. Pricewise I feel it is value for money and would use again even though I don’t use the powder as the pencil is a reasonably good product for outlining and creating shape and if you use it to ‘feather’ the gaps, it works okay.
