REVIEW: ELF eyebrow TREAT&TAME

ELF eyebrow TREAT&TAME  $3.00 USA is part of my WEEKLY REVIEW

ELF IS NOT available in CANADA in STORES, BUT is available ONLINE. The SHIPPING is around $14.95CAD to CANADA

Most items on the site vary from $1CAD~$15 CAD I usually order on BLACK FRIDAY where there is EVERYTHING is HALF OFF (UP TO $100 of savings)


THIS one is in the colour DEEP(#81205)
(This product comes in a TOTAL of 5 SHADES)
  • The product is DOUBLE ENDED 
  • The TOP RIGHT shows the EYEBROW BRUSH/"TAME" end brush has SHORT and SPIRALS DOWN in the SAME LENGTH
  • The other end is the "TREAT" end is a STRAIGHT brush, it IS somewhat flexible 

The "TREAT" end is suppose to help with the RE-GROWTH of your eyebrow







PROS:
  • The colour is VERY PIGMENTED
  • The "TAME" brush has FIBRE like materials attached to it, making it easier for the formula to adhere to your eyebrow (even if you don't have a lot of hair)
  • The "TREAT" end acts as a BROW GEL 
  • The colour WILL NOT rub off once it is DRY
  • DOES NOT dry out/ or make your eyebrows "crispy"
CONS:
  • The product can get GOUPY at the END of the "TAME" brush
OVERALL: I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND this product to EVERYONE!!! There is enough colour selection that I think everyone will be able to find their own brow shade. The product WORKS BEST if you BRUSH through your brows AFTER.

I would this RECOMMEND this EVEN to BEGINNERS. I would probably say that it will WORK BETTER if you already have some eyebrow hairs to work with, as the formula sticks to HAIR better. It still DOES FILL in the areas where you LACK HAIR.

This is a PERFECT product for those days when you don't want to take the time (in my case I just lack the skills) to DRAW your brow and FILL them in neatly with a powder product. 

I have the Benefit Gimme Brow ($26CAD) AND the SEVERAL ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS (anywhere from $20~60CAD) and I REACH for this product A LOT more often. It is sooo much easier to use and you CAN NOT BEAT the price ($3)

REVIEW: STAYS no matter what- Waterproof eye (pencil 02 stunning brown)-$1.99

I purchased ESSENCE STAY no matter what- Waterproof eye pencil NOT to use as a eye pencil...but for my eye brows. 

The WATERPROOF part really caught my eyes. 


  • I wore this in my eyebrow (I did not include a picture...as my eyebrows were pretty UNTAMED) for about 6 hours, it did not FADE
  • You DO have to brush through it, as it will ball up a tiny tiny tiny bit
  • DOES NOT have a RED undertone
  • PERFECT for my BLACK eyebrows- NOT TOO DARK

PROS:

  • Very creamy - would be a good eye liner 
  • DOES NOT smudge
  • I wore it to the gym, and the sweat DID NOT make it run
  • ONLY $1.99 CAD
CONS:
  • IS NOT a TWIST UP- You will have to SHARPEN- This could be a hassle- The surrounding is HARD PLASTIC
  • If NOT careful (REMEMBER I WENT over the same SPOT OVER AND OVER) it will ball up a tiny tiny tiny bit.
OVERALL: I would HIGHLY recommend this product, both as a eye liner OR alternatively as a EYE BROW PENCIL. I have both the Anastasia Brow pencil AS well as the Benifit Brow Pencil-THIS ONE is just as good- especially the PRICE!!! JUST REMEMBER to BRUSH through your brows!

I hope you TRY IT for yourselves!
