Hauled It But How Was It? NYX Micro Brow Pencil

Brow pencil products are great. I honestly believe they are a godsend. When you're in a hurry and you need your brows filled in right away, brow pencils are absolutely the way to go! And filling out your brows is a definite must. After all, you don't want them to disappear under your foundation or BB cream. And, regardless if you're wearing base make up or not, brows define the way you look because they frame your eyes, which are the windows to your soul. Sounds cheesy, I know, lol!


I purchased the NYX Micro Brow Pencil in MBP06 Brunette (Php 650) last month during my August haul. I've heard good things about this product, including it being a dupe for another famous brow product, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz. The ABH Brow Wiz is just a bit too much for me right now so I decided to try this NYX one instead.








Yes, it's fantabulous! I love how convenient this product is! The pencil itself is on one end and is retractable, while there is a spoolie on the other end. The pencil is also small which makes for a very precise application while still looking very natural. 




The pigmentation is also not too in your face too much. You can be a little heavy handed with this and it won't look too much. And since there's a spoolie, you can just always blend it out.

The only thing I don't like about this is that I picked the wrong damn shade! I assumed that because the pomade in Brunette was a shade match for me, this would be as well. I should've gotten it in Espresso, which is a shade darker. This shade is not the same as the pomade at all. It pulls a bit red on me as can be seen in the photo above.

Other than that, this is an amazing product overall. Inspite of its surprisingly hefty cost at Php 650 (there is so little product!), I'd have to say I'm willing to purchase it again in the right shade. Yep, that's how good it is.
