MAC just launched their new collection Brows Are It that has all the brow products that you will ever need to get your perfect brow shape, from brow pencils to brow gel creme, they have it all.
I received some of the brow products that got released to test out and I can report that I like them all. I prefer a more natural looking brow that doesn’t look very harsh and drawn out and you can do that will all the products that I will mention.
First we have the Brow Duo (available in three different shades) in Blonde. It’s a pairing of two complimentary powders that you can use to highlight and fill in the brows. The Blonde shade has the shades in Omega and Soba which are perfect for people with light blonde hair who prefer their brows to be on the cooler side.
The best thing about using brow powder is that you get the most natural looking brows. I suggest using brow powder to people who don’t have a lot of sparse areas and they don’t need a lot of precise drawing. It’s a super easy way to fill in your brows and it is also very quick. Of course since it’s powder you have to make sure you set your brows so they don’t smudge.
The second product that I tried is the Big Brow Pencil (available in 5 different shades), a chubby mechanical pencil that is used to create an unstructured full size brow. I got the shade in Fling which is a nice taupe blonde shade also perfect for people with light blonde hair.
The Big Brow Pencil is also a faster way of filling in your brows. It has a waxy texture that clings well to your brow hairs and looks very natural. Since it’s a chubby pencil you can only use this to fill in any gaps that you have. Again if you need a more precise filling, example if you need to draw a lot of hairs this is not the product to use. I use this pencil when I’m going for a natural look and don’t have a lot of time to spend on my brows, it literally takes me a minute to fill in my brows.
And last but not least, the Fluidline Brow Gelcreme (available in 5 different shades) in Dirty Blonde, a long wearing waterproof gel in a pot form that gives a precise definition to your brows. You need a brow brush for application, I recommend using the MAC 208 Angled Brow Brush for creating real looking hairs to your brows. What’s good about this gel is that you can go the natural way or you can also use a heavier hand if you like stronger looking brows. You can easily create real looking hairs to your brows and they will last you all day without smudging since the product is waterproof.
I recommend using a lighter hand and a tiny bit of product if you’re looking to create natural looking brows, like with every gel, you can easily go overboard so practice makes perfect.
The MAC Brows Are It Collection also has Brow Sets (brow mascara), Eye Brows (mechanical brow pencils) and Veluxe Brow Liners (brow pencils with a spoolie). They also have step by step tutorials and what products to use to get your desired brows.
