ModelCo Instant Brows Brow Pencil Light/Medium 0,3 g Review


Ingredients:


Microcrystalline Wax, Ozokerite Wax, Isopropyl Palmitate, Castor Oil, Mica, Cetyl Alcohol, BHT, Propylparaben. MAY CONTAIN: Titanium Dioxide (CI77891), Iron Oxides (CI77491, CI77492, CI77499).

I try to mark the sunscreen ingredients in red and other possible irritants in lilac. Ingredients thought to be good and useful for skin I mark green.  Learning as I go, google is my friend etc...





Thoughts:


3 months use time after opening? That's ridiculously short. That being said, it's been open now for a year and it hasn't dried.

I think the tip of the pencil could be smaller, sharper

I didn't fall in love with this pencil? Is the color, the formula or just my laziness?




Very creamy and smooth to apply, no tugging.

Versatile shade, not too dark or light. Blends in quite well.

Sturdy enough packaging, easy to handle, doesn't feel cheap. For some reason thought the pencil was more expensive than what it actually is.




* I'm lazy when it comes to my eyebrows. I barely have energy to pluck them. And it irritates my skin a lot too. I found a mini eyebrow razor that was like 1 €, it's surprisingly easy to use. I think I'll get another (better) razor.

I think this is my second eyebrow pencil, ever. So I'm not really sure what I'm looking for in one. I have naturally a bit bushy eyebrows, but they have started to thin. They are also quite ashy compared to my natural hair, that is also ashy/light brown/golden highlights. Should I try to match my eyebrows or try to get something lighter, darker, more warm?




Price: 

Around 10-15 € / 0,3 g

Bought from: 

Got in Lookfantastic Advent Calendar

Buy again? 

No.

Worth the money? 

Honestly can't tell because I have no experience with eyebrow products. Model Co's brow pencil are not exactly expensive but for me, I think I would rather bye cheap ones (under 5 €) for practising and testing different colors and formulas. So I'm happy I got this in the calendar, but I wouldn't have bought it myself.
