NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in Black/Grey |
I am the laziest person when it comes to filling eyebrows while doing my makeup. I kind of skip it if the occasion is not an important one and do it light handed if the need arises. The reason why I dread filling eyebrows is that one small mistake, your face would look totally funny. Moreover, I have naturally asymmetrical eyebrows which are quite tough to be tamed. Since I started attending makeup classes, I have worked with more complicated eyebrows and hence gained confidence in shaping them. I was using NYX's eyebrow pencil in dark brown which I felt was a bit lighter for my dark black hair and decided to try out a black eyebrow filling powder. NYX offers really affordable products and there was no element of doubt in choosing the brand.
Our recipe for cooking up exquisite eyebrows includes wax tools and a pair of complementary powders which can be customized to create the ideal shade. Each Eyebrow Cake Powder kit includes a slanted brush and a spoolie to shape style and tame eyebrows.
Review of NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder :
The eyebrow powder comes in a small , compact container with a black , a grey and a cream base to hold the lashes in place. The kit also has an eyebrow filling brush and a spoolie to shape the brows. The eyebrow brush has thick bristles and it might not be ideal for thinner regions of the eyebrows. I prefer using a thin slanted brush to fill the sparse areas and then shape it using the provided brush.
The black shade is ideal for Indian dark eyebrows because the shade is neither too dark nor too light. The grey is of no use to me and the white cream is ideal for holding the eyebrows intact to create a defined brow. I first use the cream base to gently shape the hair and then draw the outline using a pencil. Once the shape is defined, I then fill up the eyebrows with the black powder to give it a fuller look. The powder does not have any fallouts and the powder stays intact for about 4 to 5 hours after which the gaps begin to appear again in my brows.
I would use an eyebrow powder only for certain important occasions wherein I would not mind if it disappears after 4 to 5 hours.
