Battle Of The Brow Kits




Over the past few years eyebrows have become big in the beauty world, almost everyone has upped the brow game and they've become a vital part of  doing your make-up. A couple of years ago there wasn't much out their for doing your eyebrows the odd brow gel and pencil but that was about it now almost every drugstore brand has some sort of brow product even some of the most budget friendly brands boasts some brow product. When it comes to doing your brows there are endless products you can reach for and today I'm going to focus on brow kits as I've collected a fair few up. All the brow kits featured in todays post are all from drugstore brands and all under £10.


 
Collection Work The Colour Eye Brow Kit £3.99 I got this ages ago and I'm sure I go it for free because I spent over a certain amount on Collection products. I don't love the packaging I think it looks cheap but then it is £3.99! In the kit you get 3 powders, a clear brow gel and a doubled ended brush, this kit is only available in one shade but the 3 powders are all different colours there a blonde, a medium brown and a dark brown. The mirror inside the kit is really thin and if I'm honest I think it's pointless it needed to be bigger, the pigment in the powder isn't that great and the brow gel is ok. Overall I wouldn't buy this again I've save the money and invest in something better.

Sleek Brow Kit £8.49 this one is the most expensive brow kit out of the lot, it comes in a sleek black square compact with a mirror inside and it comes complete with a wax, a powder, mini tweezers and an angled and a blending brush. It's small enough to slot in your makeup bag and carry around with you. This is the brow kit I've used the most, I really like it, the brushes are a good size they might look small but the angled one is great for defining and creating shape. The powder and wax are highly pigmented and they last for ages, the tweezers aren't the best but that's just a little grumble overall this is a really great brow kit! The Sleek Brow Kit comes in 4 shades: light, dark, extra dark and black.

SEVENTEEN Brows That Brow Kit £5.99 this brow kit from SEVENTEEN comes with a wax, a powder, a highlighter, a mini eyebrow pencil and a mini brush plus it's got a good sized mirror inside. The wax and powder are good but not as pigmented as the Sleek Brow Kit, the highlighter is good but a little bit of the shimmery side, the mini pencil is ok and the brush is good. This brow kit only comes in one shade and it's middle of the road if your blonde this will be too dark and if your dark this will be too light. Overall this isn't a bad brow kit if your a medium brunette but any lighter or darker then it probably won't do, it's not the best but it's not the worst.

MUA Eye Brow Kit £3.50 this is the cheapest kit and comes from Superdrugs budget friendly range MUA and the packaging isn't great it's chunky and doesn't close properly, there no where for it to click into place so it if it's bashed about the lid will open and the brush will fall out on the plus side though it has a large mirror inside. Within the kit you get mini tweezers, a double ended brush, two powder shades, a highlight and a wax. The brush isn't great one side is very stiff and the double ended brush it tiny making it hard to use, the tweezers aren't too bad, the powder pigments are ok the dark powder pigment is the strongest and the wax is good. I think what you get for £3.50 is good since you get powder, wax, a brush and tweezers and this is good for someone just trying out a brow kit again it's not the best available but for the price its good value for money.

Out of all the brow kits I've tried I always go back to Sleek, it might be the pricier out of the four but it's the best one. It's compact enough to fit in your makeup bag, easy to use and gives the best quality. Do you use a brow kit? What do you use?

  1. I use the MUA almost every day. I love it so much. Even after trying smashbox new brow pen I find it much quicker with this killer pot! Such a good price for a long lasting brow product. Sham the lid is pants tho. Lol.
