Product Review: ELF Eyebrow Kit


Well, well, well. I'm back with a product review again -- ELF's eyebrow Kit! =) ELF (Eyes, Lips, Face) is a makeup brand which offers affordable makeup products. Personally, I have a few of their blushes, concealer and my most recent purchase - the ELF eyebrow kit for Php249.75. 

Let's start the review:

On their website, the product is described like this: Create brows that are fuller, thicker, and more defined! The pigmented wax defines and shapes brows and the color complementing setting powder keeps them looking arched and perfected. The doubled sided taklon brush has one side to help arch your brows while the other side aids in filling them in. This duo provides lasting color definition for a naturally beautiful look.

The eyebrow kit is available in 4 shades: Light, medium, dark and ash. I bought the medium shade since it's the color closest to my hair color. One palette is for the gel and the other one is for the powder.

The kit comes with its black, sleek case which is similar to the other ELF makeup products.



I love the fact that ELF included a small mirror which you can use when you are out on the road. It also has two-sided brush for the gel and the powder.



For the results:
The first picture are my bare eyebrows. After putting the gel and the powder I got brown brows. (2nd picture) =) I love how it made my brows look fuller but soft at the same time. The saleslady said that you can still adjust the shade depending on the amount of gel you put. (I don't know if it's true though. Lol!)

The only thing I think that needs improvement is the brush. I had a bit of a challenge in applying because it's too short but I still managed. =) It takes some getting used to.

Pros:

  • Relatively affordable
  • Comes in four shades
  • Handy (can easily fir into your pocket or small pouc)
  • Blends well because of the gel
Cons
  • The brush can be improved
I hope you find this review useful. :) This is a cheaper alternative to Fanny Serrano's eyebrow kit (which I also love)

  2. Well done on the eyebrows! I'm always amazed when girls use wax and powder brow kits because I never really learned to use them :) I think I'll pick a palette up and learn to use it because of you

  4. Thanks Rae! For me, it's easier to apply than the eyebrow pencil. :)
