i've heard so many good things about this eyebrow pencil, so when i saw them in singapore, i grabbed two of them since i had no idea which shade that's suitable for me. i've tried the brunette one and now i tried the medium brown one. let's see which one is better for me.
this is the description from their website: shady slim brow pencil is the perfect way to get fuller, beautifully sculpted brows. shape and fill brows with the retractable super skinny tip to create natural looking hair-like strokes. use the opposite end spoolie to brush and blend brow color for a finished look.
the packaging: it only comes in pen shape, covered with transparent plastic sealing. they also put sticker over it, so it's annoying and troublesome to rip the sealing. since the pencil is so slim, it's hard to get a good grip. i do hope they put the sealing some other way, or at least give a lid to make it easier to get rid of the sealing. on the body, you can see the shade name. and the cap of the pencil part is colored according to the pencil shade. the other part is the spoolie end which covered with transparent plastic cap.

the shade: this one is medium brown. it's quite dark and might suit dark-brown hair to black hair. but this has slightly reddish undertone compare to the brunette one which is more cool tone. if i just use this slightly, i can get away with it.

the product: just like the other one, it's a really slim brow pencil, automatic so you just need to twist it to get it out. the other side is a really slim spoolie. since it's so small and slim, it's hard on my eyebrows so i just use separate spoolie and never use it. the pencil is really small so you can draw hair like strokes. but on the other side, it's too small so it finishes up quickly.

the result: well, it does what it does. it can draw eyebrow really good even if you're a beginner. the pencil is small so you can draw hair like strokes. and it's not super hard either. but it washes off easily, so keep that in mind. unfortunately, i don't like the spoolie because it's too small. but other than that, it's okay for me.

i would like to repurchase if it's as cheap as the one in the US. here the price is almost doubled. so i don't think it's worth it. especially since i finish it very quickly. but the shade range is still doable for people here. considering most people here have dark hair, i bet they can find somewhere within the brown range that has several options. as for me, i'm glad i bought this one, but i won't repurchase unless it's on sale. i think i'll try some local brand next.
