Pros: stays on the entire day without touch-ups, unusual product
Cons: inconvenient brush, looks yellow, pulls out my eyebrows, takes a lot of time to set

I’m always on the lookout for trying something new. Once there’s a new product launched on the market, I immediately want to buy and test it. When I saw this Tint Gel on Instagram pages of Asian beauty-bloggers, of course I was eager to buy it at once. I was hoping that it would be a product which will provide me with long-lasting brow tinting, like of lips’ tints and that this product wouldn’t take so much time to get dried. I was so wrong…

So, my color is #1 Brown. I wish I chose the Grey Brown one Sad

Packaging:

The tube is made of opaque plastic with a black screw-on brush top. It was packed in a cardboard box with information in Korean and (surprise!) English.

The brush is like of a lip gloss with soft material. It’s wide and inconvenient in use. I expected it to be like an eyeliner.

The texture is goopy and sticky. The product dries out well, but still stains everything around.

The scent is pleasant and muted.

 

 

 

 

Use:

I followed all the instructions on the box and applied the product on my clean brows. I first degreased them with alcohol containing lotion. I didn’t apply much to remove it that easily. The gel was difficult to work with, as it was goopy and the brush was too wide. I tried to give them a more precised look with a Q-tip, but it was such a bad idea, as the gel was dragging to it, staining my skin around. What’s more, I had to sit and wait for 2 hours! Guys, I don’t have so much free time.

After two 2 hours of misery had passed, I started to peel the dried product off, keeping my skin in place with fingers. It was difficult and hurtful. Between my eyebrows’ hairs there were pieces of dried gel and besides my hairs got stuck to the gel dreadfully. I was so desperate and already had started swearing.

When I removed the gel from eyebrows completely, I looked in the mirror and gasped: my eyebrows were red and rusty! And as you can remember they advise not to use any cleansing products around the eyebrow area for the following 24 hours!

 

 

 

 

Result:

Thank God, the next day my rusty red brows didn't look as red! And since my hair is a tad red, the brows looked rather harmonious on my face. And they looked good for the following 5 days. I’m confused and totally at sea.

 

Why the hell have I done it at all? I have my favourite eyebrow paint and I like it very much, as during 30 minutes it gives me a decent result for the following few weeks without any fuss and pulling out my brows. No more experiments. Now I have to bring my brows to their normal condition and usual state.

I wasted so much time, money, self-confidence and some of my precious brow hairs. And all that for the result of nothing.

 

I absolutely DO NOT RECOMMEND this tint. Only if you have no brows at all and you need to tint your skin only for a couple of days.

 

I ordered it on eBay, but the link is already unavailable.
