A review of the Benefit high brow


A swatch of the pencil when applied and another blended out

My thoughts on the high brow pencil:
I first purchased this after watching a makeup tutorial of Pixiwoo on youtube and saw that Nic had used this in a tutorial. It looked so pretty and I really wanted to try it out for myself. It is easy to use as it comes in a pencil form. You can use just the right amount of product and be quite precise under the brow. It can also be blended out nicely with a finger/ brush. I would definitely use this to add definition to the brow bone. It also looked very pretty as an inner corner eye highlight and on the waterline to add brightness.

A lovely addition to my collection

A review of Benefit's roller lash and gimme brow


The Roller lash mascara
At the weekend I went to Boots for the long awaited launch of Benefit's new Roller lash mascara. I have been a fan of the 'They're real' mascara and wanted to see if this was worth the hype or now. As you can see, the results are pretty impressive AND they last. I think I actually prefer this to the 'They're real' mascara. Not only does it give you length and volume but the curl stays put. Something that I struggle to get with a mascara and half way through the day, my lashes are slumped!
Well done benefit!

Benefit gimme brow

I also purchased the gimme brow in the medium/dark shade. I am wearing this in the picture above. Normally I use MAC's clear brow gel and fill it my brows with the Soap and glory brow archery and MAC's eyeshadow in Omega. By using the gimme brow it gives a good coverage and fills it my brows without the need for the eyeshadow swell. Bonus! One less step in the morning. I still use the brow pencil to fill in spare areas and to draw individual hairs but I am a definite fan of this product. It also leaves your brows feeling normal and not crispy!

I hope you found this review helpful
