Review: Fashion 21 Eyebrow Duo
120 pesos, half the price or less of those eyebrow kit available in the market. I hurriedly grab this and paid it at the counter. My nichido brow pencil in medium brown looks reddish on me. It screams FAKE and UNNATURAL! I decided to give this a shot. I love trying local products that are really budget friendly..
What I like about this product:
- The price!! 120 pesos for a brow kit is a steal but this is the only thing I like about it because the product is not good at all!
What I hate about it:
- This is very sheer. The color pay off is so poor.
- The brush that comes with it is not really useful!
- The product itself does not adhere really well on my brows. I have swiped a lot of times on my brow but nothing dramatic happened. Applying this is a waste of time!
- It is very powdery too.
This is my bare brow. I am not fond of my brows, honestly. They are very thin and I usually have a hard time fixing them. I am envious of those girls gifted with thick brows. They look more attractive and younger plus thick brows provides more protection for your eyes against the sweat and dust.. Too bad, I aint gifted at all. I specifically wanted a taupe brow pencil but I cannot find one from our local brands. Any recommendations?

The eyebrow duo has a very light coverage and after a lot of swiping it just gives me a natural look. I am so frustrated.:C
This is a swatch of the brow duo. I already swiped that thrice and look how light the colors are. I will never buy this product again.
Right now, I will be making this product work.. I will be using this together with my All Natural Face Eyeshadow Primer to make the color more vibrant and the angled brush that comes with it.ALl bought from ETsy.com. Next buy will prolly be Nichido brow kit or the Skinfood brow kit .

it looks sheer nga parang eyeshadow..but hey its the cheapest brow powder there is.i want to try skinfood as well
ReplyDeletehehe sad naman. yung elf eyebrow kit na gamit ko pwede na.
ReplyDeleteTry Etude House's dear. :) It's also cheap but get the Black one instead of the gray one because the gray one is rather sheer.
ReplyDeleteaaw! kung nakita ko yan baka binili ko just cuz i like the shades.. un nichido dark for me..tried it yesterday
ReplyDeleteit seems to be a good product, very natural effect!
ReplyDeleteI don't know this brand, and even don't know if we have it in France ^^

i fell for this one sometime ago.. yeah it sucks, it doesnt stick :( but i think applying it slightly wet is a bit of a remedy.. i havent touched mine since i first tried it ^^

try In2it's brow color, ito gamit ko and i really love it! =)
ReplyDeletei hate my brows too so thin! I use elf's studio eyebrow kit in dark and i loooove it =) Too bad the fashion 21 one didn't work out. My mom brings home that brand all the time frm the phils when she goes back.
ReplyDeletei purchased this few years back and walang lalabas na kulay sa kilay ko. sayang kasi i really love the darker shade because it looks like grayish and i have been looking for gray eyebrow color for twenty million years already.
ReplyDeletethis is gorgeous! I love how natural it looks!
ReplyDeleteI also have this, sa akin sis it worked quite well buti naman, but you're right about the brush no being useful :)
ReplyDeleteTry In2It, Donna. I've been using it for years now and it never failed me. Not even once. :P
ReplyDeleteIt does look very powdery. Have you tried th sorme eyebrow powder? I can def recoomend it :)
ReplyDeleteDonna,
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry it hadn't worked out the way you wanted it to. I'm not too good with brow powders but revlon has a really good one that comes with a wax, and two colors.
The wax coating helps keep them in place. May be worth a shot someday~
ooh my friend swears by this, I mean she uses it and it looks great. I personally use fanny serranos eyebrow kit though, and it works great for me. You have better brows than me, you should see my face naked haha. I dont like pencils as much cause they really do tend to look fake, the only eyebrow pencil that i like is M.A.C.'s lingering but its quite expensive and lasts me around a month (max!!)
ReplyDeleteIt's really looks a bit light! Try to put it on top of your eyebrow pencil...
