I love Maybelline so I was delighted to try this product.
It comes under plastic on a cardboard backing with Maybelline branding. For some reason, there was a gold sticker stuck over the instructions.
The product itself has a hard wire brush on one end, which is ideal for a brisk strong brush that gets my unruly brows back in place. On the other end, is the pigmented product which looks like a felt pin with a fatter tip.
The product is easy to apply, though my complete lack of artistic skills is obvious. So easy to apply even if my application isn't prefect. It is too dark for my pale skin and leaves me with a surprised look, but that isn't due to any fault in the pencil.
What I love about it is that it is easy to apply, easy to remove (if you make a mistake), and lasts the 36 hours, so it does what says it will. Once applied, it looks exactly the same as my friend's tattooed brows, only darker. At around $22 it is also a good price.
I highly recommend it.
I really enjoyed reviewing this product in deep brown shade. It's alot different from a previous Maybelline brow pencil I tried that smudged. This product stays on and is smudge proof and you're basically good to go until you cleanse. The product itself is great, and worked well to make my thin eyebrows appear naturally fuller/ thicker. If there was a small improvement to be made it would be to make the brown cap on the end of the pencil tighter so it stays on as mine keeps falling off.
Tips: Tips: keep your pencil sharp for fine defined strokes, use the spool to straighten eyebrows first, then apply in light strokes to fill in the brows as the pigment is strong in this one. Finish by using the spool to smudge the pigment if required and you're done!
