Hi lovelies!
I went to Sephora a couple
weeks ago to pick up the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Pomade because I had
been seeing all the big “beauty gurus” on YouTube basically sucking this
product’s dick so I thought I’d try it out myself and see if it was worth all
the hype it’s been getting. Now, I’m not going to lie, those biggies on YouTube
have fucking fuh-lawless eyebrows when they use this product, but I have
discovered that I am a powder girl at heart when it comes to my brows. I think
it’s partly because I have light blonde hair and my eyebrows are really “barely
there” and I’m not a goddamn magician so those “Instagram eyebrows” are not
something I can easily achieve.
I decided to pick up the Blonde
shade and unfortunately it’s too warm for my hair color so I looked at the next
darker shade which is Taupe and I felt that shade was darker than I was
wanting. It’s not that I don’t like the product, I think the formula is
amazing; incredibly pigmented, super long lasting, and you get a crazy generous
amount of product (seriously, I’m willing to bet if you keep the lid on tight it’ll
last wayyy over a year). I just like my
brows to look a pretty natural and I’m not ready for the fully sculpted brow
since I get the results I like with powder. I may use it to really define the
tail of my brow/underbrow and use powder for the rest because I know I like how
the tails turn out when I use this.
*UPDATE* After I had written
this post I returned the brow pomade to Sephora because I was sure I just
wanted to be a brow powder girl and then I had a conversation with a girl on
Instagram and she gave me a few tips and really inspired me to give it another
try. I re-ordered the pomade in the damn Blonde shade that day and started playing
around with it. I took my own advice to define the tails and bottoms of my
brows with the pomade and filling the rest of my brow in with powder and I
think that’s the combination that works for me. Yaaaay.
Overall, this is a great
product and if you like a strong, well defined brow then this is the product
for you! And I think it is in part the product for me. My brows have never been
so happy.
xoxo Heather
