I've been lusting over the Anastasia Beverly Hills dip brow pomade for ages, but it was very hard to find here in Australia, also the $ online put me off but I found it for a very affordable price and I thought I'd share it with you all. I've never really considered filling my brows as I have naturally thick eyebrows, I used to get them threaded but now I do them myself.
- Shade I own : Chocolate
- Okay so at the beginning I was confused whether I should get this or dark brown. Another beauty blogger suggested chocolate as she said it was deeper than dark brown and works well for almost everyone. When I looked up the shade chocolate, it appeared very warm toned and looked like it had a red undertone in some people's brows. But that's not the case at all, I actually found that this has a mix between a warm and a cool undertone. My eyebrows look grey(in photos) and this is literally the perfect shade, I thought the chocolate wouldn't work but surprisingly it did, I recommend this to all NC40+ girls who have dark brown - almost black hair.
- Application :
- I use an angled brush to apply this with a very very LIGHT hand. I just dip the brush once into the dip brow as it's very pigmented. I only fill in the sparse areas and that's it. After that I blend it with a spoolie brush. Then I apply concealer below and above my eyebrow and my eyebrows look like I just got them threaded! Honestly this product is AMAZING.
- Pigmentation :
- The dip brow is so pigmented, I am so amazed by how pigmented it is, you just need to dip your brush once and then fill in your brows. I've read online that the dip brow dries overtime, when this happens use a bit of baby oil and it will go back to normal.
- Consistency:
- This has a mousse-y kind of consistency. It's very creamy and it goes on creamy but when it sets and you blend it, it almost feels like a powder, which is amazing. I thought this would be sticky on the brows but it doesn't even feel like I have anything on.
- Lasting power :
- Okay so this stuff doesn't move at all! I usually touch my eyebrows like 20 times a day and the product doesn't move one bit and at the end of the day it looked like I had just filled them in.
- Price :
- Okay so i found this on net-a-porter for A$15!! Which is amazing as in most online stores which I looked at it's A$39. The shipping is $10 and it arrived within 2 days. Also this apparently lasts for 2 years, so you're getting so much for it's value. I'm in love with this product so much.
