Hi guys.. There's another product I'd like to share with you.. Please welcome *drumroll* ELF Eyebrow Kit! Take a look!
Elf is a drugstore brand known for their affordable prices. Some of their products showing average quality, but some products surprisingly give quite awesome result. Personally, i kinda in love with their Studio Line. I've heard good reviews about this line so now i' m going to try one of the Studio Line : The Eyebrow Kit
What
The Eyebrow kit from ELF contains 2 pans. One contains a formula appears to be wax or gel. The other one is an eyebrow powder. Elf launched 4 shade of eyebrow kit: Dark, Medium, Light and Ash.

Details
What i have here is the eyebrow kit in
medium. The size of this product is quite small. It's half size of my
palm. And my palm is quite small, if you're interested.. (lol)
On
the back of the box written the direction on how to use it and the
ingredients. What i love about this, ELF didn't put any of the parabeans
familiy in here. And as far is i checked on their studio blushes they didn't contains any parabeans either. Bravo :)
Why i choose the medium color was because i think it suits most of Asian's hair color which is dark. And i think the Light kit is great for you who had a brighter hair color.
Claim
Creates brows that are fuller, thicker, and more defined.
Shapes and sets your eyebrow. Gives lasting color definition for a beautiful natural look
How
Since the product is quite small, the brushes that comes with it is also
small. It' s a double-ended brush. One is somehow created to look like
an angle brush, is made to apply the wax. The second brush is a blending
brush, of course, to blend the brow powder. Since on the box gives the direction on how to use it so it's very foolproof. Let's take a look!

make sure there's nothing on your eyebrow, then with the tiny angle brush apply the brow gel |

after applying the brow gel, use the blending brush and apply the brow powder |

so now after applying both gel and powder, you can see the difference , right :D |

apply on both brow, and you're done. Check the before and after picture :) |
different light
so, it still matte, doesn't look greasy and still look natural.

staying power
so, i tried to wipe it gently with some water. On the first picture, you can see that the outline of my brow is quite faded. The second attempt, the outline is more faded, but that's it. It doesn't create any mess or create some brown stain on my eye area. But now we know it doesn't water proof. Best advice i can give is, if you make any contact with water, do not touch your eyebrow until the water dried and the color won't disappear. If you didn't have contact with water, i would say this last quite long. At least on me, it last more than 4 to 6 hours.
conclusion
- As promised, it does give you the fuller, thicker and natural eyebrow. How i love it makes my eyebrow look matte, and doesn't greasy or glossy.
- However, it doesn't waterproof so if you want to wear it during your holiday trip to beaches, i would pass.
- The price on their web is around $3, or IDR 60.000. who can beat that!?
- The kit is lightweight, easy to carry, easy to use and the kit comes with a small mirror. So i have to say this kit is quite practical.
- Compared to The Body Shop Eyebrow Kit, which is more pricey, this ELF eyebrow kit gives a similar result so i guess we don't need to spend another penny to achieve practically a same thing.
- The brushes included are very tiny, especially the angle brush. So it takes time to fill your brow with the brow gel. The blending brush is okay. In fact, the brow powder and the blending brush are perfect to contouring nose. seriously, no kidding :))
- Since i already have a quite thick brow, achieving a fuller and thicker eyebrow with this kit is very easy. So for those of you who doesn't have much hair in your eyebrow, i suggest you to outline your eyebrow with a brow pencil first.
If you don't have any eyebrow kit and want to create the awesome eyebrow too, you can check my post about emergency eyebrow trick here :)

kalo dibandingin eyebrow pencil, kak Vitrie suka yang mana?
ReplyDeleteHi, Gadis!
DeleteKarena alisku sudah cukup tebal aku pilih eyebrow kit ini. hehe.
Tapi kalo alis kamu tipis banget, untuk mendapatkan alis yang hits aku saranin untuk pake pensil sebagai outline kemudian fillingnya pake eyebrow powder.
good luck :)
