To Eyebrow or Not To Eyebrow

So I am... Currently back? Maybe? I'm not sure for how long, but I thought I would try and get this post done and out of the way. So whilst packing and unpacking I bought a couple of new things. So I once had a eyebrow pencil that I had purchased from Loreal I think. I thought it was AMAZING!... That was until I found this little beaut from Collection.

Now I've never had a 'Eyebrow Kit' before. They just made me wonder if they were really worth it. Especially with the prices that they are going for. I just didn't understand, why not just use a pencil, or even if you wanted to change the colour slightly, use eyeshadow.

That was until I got this. It is just a little kit, but there are three different shades of brown (As I am a brunette), dark, medium and light. It also had a cute little two ended brush to help style and fill those eyebrows, and a clear mascara for your eyebrows to help style and keep them in place.

Now my eyebrows are not the best. I don't get them professionally done (I don't have money to waste on something I can easily do myself at home), so they are probably a little thicker than people would like them. On the left is the eyebrow that I used this kit on, and the other, is in it's glorious natural state.

I used the lighter shade as I am not a dark brunette, and I originally was blonde before my hair got darker. I think it might still be a little dark, but I think I will maybe try the blonde one if I find one, and see how that works. I think for my first try I did an OK job. I have to say it was a little easier than I thought. I was a little unsure about the gel stuff, but it does give you clear instructions on the back to show how to use. (I didn't look until after I had done this). I do quite like how it ended up. Lighter than a pencil I have used before, and I felt I had a little more control over my eyebrows. Which was nice. So overall. I think it was a great purchase I found. Pros: Cheap! At under £5 I think a good investment. Small and handbag sized.

Instructions on the back of the package. Comes with brush and gel.

Easy to find at a drug store like Boots or Superdrug.

Comes with a tiny mirror.

Cons: A little too dark for me.

If you only need one colour, you have to waste the other two colours.

The gels seems to almost look like it's clumping after a few uses.

The gel gets coloured by the pigment you use. Other than that I think it's good. For a beginner, again something you can try out before looking at the big leagues of Eyebrow kits. Anyway, have a good day/night and hopefully see you all again soon.
