Hi there lovely faces! To be honest with you, I never
ever filled in my brows until a couple of days ago. I have quite strong brows
myself en never had the need to. I did notice that I have some sparse bits
though, so I thought; why not give it a go?
I decided to go with a cheaper option first, instead
of going straight to MAC or Anastasia. I bought the Sleek Brow Kit in Light. I
have quite dark brows considering I have naturally blonde hair, but knowing
that most “cheaper” brands don’t have the greatest colour selection for fair
coloured brows, I went for light.
The Kit contains a wax to shape your brows and give a
bit of colour and a powder to set that. I think the wax is a bit too dark to
fit most “light” brows. It also has a slight warm undertone, what isn’t that
great for blonde people, as their brows tend to be more ash-toned.
There’s an angled brush to put on the wax.
I’ve compared the thickness of this brush to a brush people
would normally use to fill in their brows (I read enough reviews to know that
haha). Even though it is almost twice as thick, I do not think it’s a bad
brush. However, I don’t think you’ll get the most natural effect from it if you
have really fair brows.
There’s a shader brush (Sleek
calls it a blending brush, but I don’t really get that).
I don’t think there’s anything wrong about this brush.
And last but not least, a pair of tweezers. I think it’s
the cutest pair of tweezers ever! Look how tiny it is. I wouldn’t use this for
my brows that often though, but you can easily throw this in a bag or purse.
Information on the back of the box the kit comes in. I
think it’s nice of them to tell you how to use it.
As said before, I have quite strong, dark brows
considering I’m blonde. So for me, the colour is quite good. It’s just a tiny
bit too warm for my brows, but I can get away with it. The first day I tried it
out, I had dinner with my parents and they didn’t notice any difference, but I
don’t think it’s suitable for most blonde people out there.

Forgetting about the colour, it works fine. It doesn’t
smudge that easily, even when you accidentally touch your brows.
Get
this: If you have light brown hair – or naturally darker
brows as me - with a warm undertone.
Skip:
If you’re really fair, this just wouldn’t look good on you at all.
Lots of love,
Laurie

ReplyDeleteis the colour of the actual product different to the colour of the product on the superdrug website? xx

Yes, I think it's definitely darker compared to the product picture on the superdrug website. If you have very light hair/brows I wouldn't recommend getting this one as the waxy bit is quite dark..
DeleteHope this answers your question! <3
