I am picky with brow pencils mainly because most can look fake or wear out quickly. I originally used a brow pencil I got from sephora for $12. Although it was a great brow pencil, it was quickly used and I was wanting to find a pencil that would last much longer. The NYX brow pencil works just as well as other expensive pencils. I have been using it for about 2 months and it still has ways to go before I throw it away. It stays on all day and it does not look fake. It blends very well.Thursday, July 31, 2014
Review of NYX Auto Eyebrow Pencil
I have always used the little wax/powder combo kit from N.Y.C. for my eyebrows, and it worked alright, but I tend to have a heavy hand and my brows usually looked too dark... even though my eyebrows are actually black, they just looked kind of fake if I wasn't super careful. Who has the time in the morning to dedicate to that? I just received this yesterday, and used it this morning... wow. I will never go back to the wax/powder kit. You have so much control using the pencil. I purchased this NYX pencil in dark brown. I have very sparse brows. They look good using this. My hair is dark brown, so it really looks natural on me. You can't really distinguish the difference between the pencil and my real eyebrow hairs (brown vs. black). You can really use a heavy hand with this, and it takes a while to darken. Not very waxy either, but it doesn't distribute a lot of color either. The wax also helps my eyebrows keep their shape. It just gives you a lot of control. Maybe I'm being too detailed, but I had never used an eyebrow pencil before this, so I'm amazed at how much simpler my makeup routine (and some confidence) could have been for the last few years if I had used something like this. And it's so affordable, and sharpens itself, which is a huge plus to me. The tip is thick; not thin or sharp. As I think I remember one reviewer stating, it's like coloring with a crayon. It gives you the ability to really control how dark or light you want your brows to look; gives you lots of control. I almost spent $15 on the MAC eyebrow pencil, but I'm glad now that I didn't. Maybe the MAC pencil would be better, but this gets the job done for 1/3 of the price. I'm very happy with it. I should also mention that I have extremely oily skin, and it has held up for over 9 hours now, so I'm confident that it will hold up all day without a problem. The wax kit I was using would sometimes get sort of goopy as my skin got oily throughout the day. This is holding up very well. Definitely worth the purchase!
