Packaging:

Black plastic packaging with a brow brush in one end and the brow pencil at the other end.

















What I love most from this product is its triangle shaped tip ( I'm a big fan of using angle brush to apply my old brow powder and this tip acts the same as the angle brush. Smart!).

My Review:

I bought this product mainly because my NYX's Eyebrow Cake Powder crushed when I brought it out in my cosmetic purse. I was thinking about buying a new NYX's but then, I thought it'd be best to buy an efficient product that isn't as fragile as my NYX's so I can bring it on my purse without being afraid that it would get crushed again.

So I ended up with this product. And it's not a regret.

In a single sentence, I TOTALLY LOVE THIS PRODUCT.

Starting from the packaging,

As I have mentioned above, I love the triangle shaped tip of the product ( it acts similar to an angle brush, I noticed), making it easier for me to draw my brows. And the brow brush in one packaging is also a bonus point. It's a very efficient product in one packaging, I must say. Just like what I was searching for.

Moving on to the product itself,

First, I love the color. I have black/ dark brown hair and hairy brows so it's not easy for me to find a perfect color of eyebrow pencil. I tried a brown brow pencil from a local product ( I think it's "Viva") and the color is too reddish brown for my eyebrows so I dropped it off. Then came my NYX's Eyebrow Cake Powder in "Black/Gray", it worked well, but I had to mix both of the colors to get the sharp yet natural eyebrow's color ( using black itself gave me a harsh lined eyebrows). And then came this product. The color is just perfect for my eyebrows. Not too dark, yet it looked natural. So it really works for me.

































The next good thing about this product is that it's easy to use. Despite the hard consistency of the pencil, it glides easily on my eyebrows and doesn't get clumpy or cakey, giving my brows a soft yet defined natural look.











At a closer look,











However this product is not "waterproof" as it claimed. But I don't really care since it doesn't smudge and it stays on perfectly during my outdoor hours ( around 6 hours or so) in a hot and humid weather of this capital city of Indonesia ( means sweats and etc).

My review:

First, I really hate the packaging. The transparent plastic cover is fragile. I accidentally broke it when I opened it.

The good things about this product are: 1. It is unscented, 2. The powder shadows have enough pigments, 3. It comes with 2 functional mini brushes ( I really love the slanted brush! It makes the application easier).

I bought the product at the official NYX counter in MKG. The SA girl was quite an idiot. She didn't understand about the product at all. I asked her about the gray powder shadow ( since I don't want to have gray brows, and she said that I could use the gray as eyeshadow while the description on the web is quite clear, "Shades can also be blended for a natural match". Girl, please... Pay attention to stuffs you sell!).

The mini brushes are very easy to use. The round brush used to refine brows shape and the slanted brush used to apply the powder shadows.

I only need small amount of the powder shadow to fill in my brows.
