Greetings!
Honestly, I was surprised when I bought this brow compact. You know, I stopped using an eyebrow pencil a while ago and now I’m more into brow pomades. That was the day I headed to a store for a new brow pomade for me when something went wrong and after testing different brow products, I stopped on this magical palette.
Price: $43
Product description
Clarins' everyday eyebrow essential for beginners and pros.
Clarins easy-to-use eyebrow kit has all the tools for creating perfectly-groomed brows—in one, sleek mirrored compact. Contains brow powders in black, brown and blond, transparent holding wax to tame unruly brows, powder eyeshadow in nude pink, an eyebrow brush, double-sided applicator, and precision mini tweezers.
Made in Italy, even though the brand is French.
As you can see, the compact includes all the eyebrow essentials: small tweezers, eyebrow brush, double-sided applicator, three brow powders from fair to dark, holding wax and a powder eyeshadow for the brow bone.
The compact is really stylish - it’s golden, heavy with a mirror inside. It isn’t scratched or worn out now, even though I’ve been carrying it with me in my purse sometimes.
The small tweezers are really tiny. Even though it’s small, it’s still handy to use when I discover some undesired hairs on my eyebrows.
The applicator is handy. The soft side is handy to apply the powders on my eyes and to the crease. The slanted brush is perfect for filling in my eyebrows. I especially love filling in the tip of my eyebrow with it. I use only this one and never need any other brushes.
The eyebrow brush is also nice. I use it to apply the holding wax on my hairs. It does its job well.
The brow powders are of cool colors, in my book. Most frequently, I use those ones at sides. One is a classy taupe shade, while another one is a cool-toned brown.
The shade in the middle is too red for me.
The nude powder is barely detectable on my skin.
The holding wax is transparent.
My non-made-up brows: black thick and unruly hairs.
The tip of the brow is a little bit bold, while the rest is okay.
Most frequently, I use the darkest shade and the holding wax for my eyebrows makeup. The outcome result looks like this:
The products look natural, like there’s no makeup at all. I love it. The shades are truly matte without any hint of glossy finish.
I don’t experience any discomforting feelings - I don’t detect the wax or the powders. I was impressed with their staying power. Even if I rub my eyebrow a little, it’ll still stay put.
Definitely recommended! Given the quality, you get a small pro eyebrow studio in one compact, so the price is okay.
