Revlon ColorStay Brow Enhancer

Hello, everyone! It's been more than a week since I last blogged because I've been swamped with school work! I also moved back to our old house, which is pretty far from my school. My school days usually end at 6 PM so I get home a little past dinner time, giving me no time to blog because of school work. I actually have an impossible task to finish by Monday, but since it's a Saturday, I'll take it easy and write a review of one of my favorite products.

The Revlon ColorStay Brow Enhancer is one of the first brow products I ever used. I absolutely love this because it's a no-brainer product. Among all of the ones I've tried, this actually made it to my face routine basket (the one I pull out from my collection everyday!). I only have to non-face products there, the Revlon Brow Enhancer and the NARS Multiple in Copacabana for highlighting.

The Revlon ColorStay Brow Enhancer is a dual ended retractable pen that has a stick form brow wax on one end, and a cream highlighter on the other. The one I have is in Light Brown/Champagne. The brow wax end comes in various variations of brown, and the highlighter end comes in various neutral and non-neutral tones (I remember seeing a pink highlighter).

The brow wax end of the product is the only thing I ever use (will tell you why later). I love how it's not super super pigmented, which makes it easy for me to build the color without worrying about overdoing it.

It also glides on smoothly. You can apply this with a light hand and still get decent color payoff.

Now on to the highlighter end of the product. I only use this when I'm too lazy to put on eyeshadow. I'm not a fan of this end because the flecks of glitter are too big (for me at least) for a brow bone highlighter. It also looks blotchy. If they made the formulation a little big creamier, maybe I wouldn't have that problem.

I suggest applying this with your finger. That way it'll warm up a bit before you apply it on your brow bone.

PROS:

• Available in most Revlon counters
• The brow wax has just the right amount of pigmentation
• It's a no-brainer product
• Convenient double ended packaging
• Lasts all day

CONS:

• The highlighter end could be creamier
• The highlighter leaves a blotchy finish when applied directly to the brow bone
• The highlighter's flecks of glitter are too big
• A bit expensive for a drugstore product (as all Revlon products)

VERDICT:

• Although I showed a lot of disappointment towards the highlighter, the brow wax makes up for it. I love everything about the brow wax. I am definitely re-purchasing this the moment I run out. I highly recommend this for "brow beginners" like me!
