Wday is testing: new and proven eyebrow treatments

The fashion for wide and thick eyebrows makes us use all the achievements of the beauty industry to get just such.

Lumene, fixing eyebrow gel Blueberry, 819 rubles

– I have naturally thick and wide eyebrows. In high school, like everyone else, I plucked them mercilessly, but now I don’t touch the tweezers at all – the natural shape and length is at the peak of popularity. Of all the tools participating in the test, I use only fixing gels – I’ll show them.

Expectation: I specially took it for sports: the gel had to withstand both long cycling trips and swimming in a cool lake near Moscow.

Reality: a couple of years ago, Lumene underwent a rebranding: the products changed their packaging and went up significantly, jumping to the next price segment. This caused a storm of discontent among buyers, which, however, soon gave way to enthusiasm – after all, the brand also updated its formulas. Since then, I have had a couple of Lumene skincare favorites, and now, it seems, another one – a simple and uncomplicated gel does exactly what people buy it for: it firmly fixes even wide and thick eyebrows, withstanding all day. I tried it in conditions where you have to sweat – even after a light wash, the eyebrows are still in place. Good!

Evaluation: 10 out of 10, an irreplaceable thing in everyday life. An excellent thing from the category of “make up without a mirror”: the gel allows you to make your image more well-groomed in no time and at the same time does not draw attention to the eyebrows, as, for example, shadows do. It lays down evenly and without lumps, it is also washed off easily, and, by the way, there are no comedones or pimples around the eyebrows, that is, the skin does not suffer from it.

Makeup Revolution, set for eyebrow shaping Ultra Brow Palette, 1200 rubles

– I approach eyebrow shaping very responsibly. After all, how neat and well-groomed your eyebrows look depends on how others will evaluate your appearance. In addition, it is always pleasant to look at girls who prefer natural beauty, and do not draw thin threads, raised in surprise. I was not familiar with the English brand Makeup Revolution before, but I firmly decided that I would test this particular palette: the idea of ​​collecting all the eyebrow makeup products in one place seemed too tempting to me.

Expectation: what else can a girl dream of when she falls into the hands of a whole set of different means with which you can create not only everyday, but also professional makeup. I looked forward to one of the most enjoyable tests out there.

Reality: This eyebrow set has everything you need to create sophisticated HD eyebrow lines. Therefore, not only me, but any professional makeup artist would be happy to work with this product. The palette contains pigmented eyebrow shadows (4 colors), tinted eyebrow waxes, a cream fixer and highlighter, an eyebrow pencil, tweezers and two special brushes. Yes, this is a whole arsenal! For me, this is generally a godsend – now there will be no need to lug a suitcase of cosmetics on vacation. It is enough to take this palette, mascara, transparent gloss – and that’s it! In addition, there is a large mirror in the palette, so you can fix your makeup anywhere.

As for the shadows, they perfectly paint over the hairs, do not crumble, do not roll and remain in place throughout the day. For the evening version, you can also use a pencil, with which they carefully draw a contour, and then paint over with shadows of a suitable color. And don’t forget the highlighter! It perfectly brightens the areas under the eyebrows and gives the face a fresh look. If we talk about economy, then this set will definitely be enough for you for a long time!

Evaluation: 10 out of 10. I appreciated the idea of ​​manufacturers to collect everything you need in one palette that fits into any handbag and will always be at hand.

Eyebrow set MAC Great Brows, 2400 rubles

– Once, when I was a foolish girl, I took and did my eyebrow microblading! It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life, although no, the first mistake was to take the tweezers in hand and turn chic, thick eyebrows into strings. Honestly, when I look at my five-year-old photos, I have to strain to see them at all! If I knew that the ideal shape of eyebrows lies in its absence … Nature turned out to be wiser, and now I am unraveling the consequences, experimenting with eyebrow shadows …

Expectation: I do not know why, but all the means of the MAC brand are perceived by me as something that has no drawbacks. I love this brand very much, especially matte lipsticks! Eyebrow shadows have not yet come across to me, and, of course, I was expecting a stunning effect.

Reality: The eyebrow design set has everything you need to create the perfect shape. Several colors to choose from: dark brown, slightly lighter and white for the line under the eyebrow. The brushes are very comfortable, despite the fact that they are compact. I used to work with a long brush, but those in the set did not fail. In general, I liked the quality, they fit perfectly, but the color is a little different from mine.

Evaluation: 10 out of 10. For convenience and first-class quality!

Eyebrow pencil Brow Drama Pomade Crayon, 350 rubles

– I believe that facial expression depends on the shape of the eyebrows. By nature, my eyebrows are like a “house”, but when there was a fashion for eyebrows “stick out” and I constantly corrected my eyebrows, then over time they remained so. Now I pluck them out minimally, I don’t need to add color, and I have to tweak the shape a little.

Expectation: I chose a color close to my natural, light brown. I think the shape of a pencil will cope with the troubles of problems.

Reality: eyebrow pencil Brow Drama Pomade Crayon with a long-lasting creamy texture. It can be applied either from the stick or with a brush. Perfectly colors and sets eyebrows. Looks natural. Persistent enough, does not crumble, but after a few hours it turns pale. There is a small drawback: if you use the stick without a brush, then the tip is rounded and it is impossible to sharpen it, so you will not be able to achieve the grace of the eyebrow.

Evaluation: 9 out of 10. Overall, the product is not bad, the quality matches the price.

Guerlain Eyebrows Kit, set for eyebrow makeup, from 2470 rubles

– Recently I was asked: “Without which beauty product you cannot imagine your life?” I answered without hesitation: “Of course, no eyebrow shadows!” Mascara, blush, foundation – I can do without all this. Eyebrow shadows give the face a well-groomed look, make the look expressive – that’s why I love this product so much.

Expectation: there is only one thing to expect from Guerlain: magic. Such associations evoke in me the name of the brand, as soon as I hear it. Again, the tool is quite expensive. By purchasing it, you want the purchase to be justified.

The set includes three shades of brown plus pink powder. The latter helps to complete the look: the beige-pink substance, using a convenient brush, corrects irregularities, and also gives the look a shimmer.

Reality: the best review, in my opinion, is the shortest. I have been using Guerlain eyeshadow for a week now. All the while, they look perfect.

The product is easy to apply, perfectly conceals imperfections, does not crumble during the day and is easy to remove.

Evaluation: 10 out of 10 points. Excellent quality. Definitely worth the money.

LASPLASH Cosmetics, Ultra Defined Brow Mousse, 1290 rubles (Pudra.ru)

– I usually use eyebrow shadows. They, in my opinion, create the most natural effect. I have no problems with density and shape. The main goal is to make the eyebrow color a little brighter, but without blackness and reddishness. So, I was wary of eyebrow lipstick – an unusual product for me. I was afraid that the mousse would create a line that was too clear and unnatural.

Expectation: the manufacturer LASPLASH Cosmetics promises durability, rich color and ease of application. This product is also on the list of favorite eyebrow products of many popular beauty bloggers. The unique mousse texture allows you to create the most natural eyebrow shape.

Reality: shade 17210 Hydrangea Taupe, smoky gray, was perfect for my shade. I am a brown-haired woman with dark eyebrows, but usually shadows of very dark shades look foreign on me and make my eyes heavier. The same color blended well with the natural one. The application is really easy: put some mousse on the beveled brush and draw the eyebrow. The intensity of the color can be varied, and if necessary, the pigment is well blended with an eyebrow brush. Persistence is also beyond praise. The only drawback: not very convenient format, round washer and lack of brushes in the set.

Evaluation: 10 out of 10. Now this is my must-have!

MAKE UP REVOLUTION, eyebrow palette Focus & fix Eyebrow shaping kit, 400 rubles

– I have naturally light hair and skin, eyebrows generally disappear from the middle of the face, so I just show you how to use various pencils and eyebrow shadows.

Expectation: The palette contains three shades of eyeshadow, fixative wax, applicator and small tweezers. The idea of ​​mixing shades in search of yours is quite attractive.

Reality: in the Light medium palette with a very comfortable mirror, there are two working shades: light beige and light brown, as well as a block with nude shadows – by the way, they are convenient to use as a highlighter for the upper part of the eyelid under the eyebrow. I was ideally suited to a light beige shade, in some cases it can be darkened with the second color from the block, but I didn’t even bother. I applied the shadows with a brush, but the fixing wax is more convenient for me to apply with a brush, so its absence in the set became a noticeable disadvantage for me. Although, in general, I liked the shades and quality very much and ideally suited the declared light type.

Evaluation: 9 of 10.

Sleek MakeUp, set for eyebrows Brow Kit, about 900 rubles

– I had a lot of eyebrow shadows, but more often out of habit, almost every morning I pick up … a pencil. With him I am both more familiar and more comfortable. Shadows, in my opinion, fall too unnaturally, and they are always noticeable with the naked eye. The only palette I use at times is the Brow Kit from Taiwan’s Sleek MakeUp in Light, which I would like to talk about.

Expectation: in eyebrow shadows texture is extremely important for me. It should fit perfectly on the skin and wash off easily. I would also like to get the desired shade. All this was done by the Brow Kit manufacturers.

Reality: It should be noted right away that the Brow Kit palette is incredibly comfortable. It seems to have it all: eyebrow powder, wax, two brushes (one for mixing, the other for applying), and also … tweezers. True, it is too small, which makes it not very convenient to use. But powder, wax and brushes are just a dream! Especially the application brush. By the way, I am not the only one who thinks so. There are many positive comments about her on all kinds of beauty forums.
