Brows are important. And no matter how they look, we always want to improve something about them. Either fill in or shape, darken or teach them to do the differential equation, anything. So as not to be taken crazy, I’ll stop on the first two points and tell you about the Benefit Foolproof Brow Powder in the color 03 Medium
Benefit Foolproof Brow Powder 03
Benefit is Benefit. This brand is famous for their packages when you just look at them and already feel like you desperately need it. But I tried to be wise and restrained myself and bought this one only after finishing the previous brow product.
That’s why I was super conscious and attentive to what I was buying because I’m sure that such a product will be enough to use for a year or maybe even more.

I wanted to use brow powder again because it’s the quickest and easiest option for an everyday brow makeup. And this kit actually provides everything to make me happy.

The design is just the bomb! I want to hold this little box in my hands all the time!
Inside there are two matchy powder shades waiting for us. They are placed as a brow shape (sighs). Moreover, it also provides a sponge and a brush there. The applicator is unusually shaped, but it’ll be so fine for thin lines once you get used to it. But the main feature of this sponge is that it applies and blends out the product so good that I want to buy it in a full size now. But I know that it’s priced as much as this full kit, so I’d better not. 
Yes, the inside of the kit also offers a mirror, which is of nice quality and initially the kit was wrapped with a paper cover. I usually throw such papers away, because I don’t see any point in using them.
My shade is 03 Medium and it’s warm-toned. Such warm undertones can frighten a lot of brow junkies. But I’m head over heels with it and I think that it beautifully flatters my skin and brow tones. So, I’m pleased with the shade I have.

If you’re not, then there are many other shades in the collection, which also have perfect cool undertones, so everyone will find an ideal match!
The maker was wise when he/she took care of the buyers and included a guidance instruction to follow and show which shade to apply and where to. The shades are intuitively logical where to apply so you won’t screw up, even if you’re in a hurry in the early morning.

But there are some options of use. The first thought that crosses my mind is to use only this kit and a provided sponge for the application. This is naturally the laziest option because the sponge itself is rather big and it won’t give out graphical lines. In general, I like those “lazy” brows that I get and I can even sometimes set them with a clear brow gel.

The other two options require brow brushes. The thing is that it’s for the brushes to arch your brows and then fill them in with a sponge:

And as a result, you can get beautiful sharp insta brows, with the help of a brush and a kit (such insta brows tend to look more like a squirrel, glued to the skin, as we all know, though). I can shape them more naturally and I like the outcome indeed.

The third option is 50/50. I use a brush to fill in the lower line and then blend it out with a sponge. The most frequent option of mine.

In general, I like it and wear a lot:

I adore what I see. In fact, one can use any tool or product for filling in brows and the most important thing is to make them look good.
If you use a brow powder, then there are some advantageous things like it always blends out with ease.
And all the blemishes which you can see in the pictures are only due to my skills and hastiness. It doesn’t mean that the powder is bad. One more thing, usually all powders have a buildable texture, which makes it possible to vary the color payoff and intensity.
And the most pleasant thing is that a pressed powder will never dust. It won’t dust regardless of the tool that you’re using, for instance with a brush or sponge. That’s why a brow makeup can be a finishing part of your makeup in total and you can be sure that your face won’t be covered with a thousand tiny powder crumbles…
And yeah, one more thing that I almost forgot to mention is that a brow powder will never be budged with brow gels. Even the sticky AHB clear gel doesn’t ruin the shape of my brows. And it’s a hit, I mean it.
The powder brow makeup is the least long-wearing out of all. That’s why it’s a good option for newbies because it won’t be a problem to correct all the mishaps if there are any.
But thanks to the fine grain of this very brow powder from Benefit, the product can easily live through wear and tear even with my hat, which is phenomenal for a brow powder. In all other respects, the staying power here is standard.
But at the same time, the maker didn’t promise us any super staying power or a waterfall-proof formula.

This kit will be a great start for any newbie in the world of brow makeup because the sponge and a brush here are so cute and efficient.
And even if you’re a mature brow artist, who has already gotten a good dose of brow powders, tints, and pomades, you’ll still find it a nice option. This kit makes me so nostalgic about those times when I just started getting to know the lazy brow makeup technique.
So, I highly recommend it to you as well!
