Wow! Eyes on Eyes

Due to some reviews I was a bit skeptical about this product. But I'm so glad I tried! I have very oily skin and hair loss/alopecia due to severe PCOS. I have almost no eyebrows and the part I have is very thin so drawing the eyebrows completely can be a challenge. I used my favorite primer (it's called Save Me Later) with my brow pencils (just a couple of basic drugstore Maybelline pencils) to line the shape, then filled in with this product. It looked wonderful. This is exactly the shade I was hoping for. Beautiful, deep brunette/auburn colour. Unfortunately, after a long night, I fell asleep with my makeup on. I just woke up a little over 14 hours since I put it on. My foundation is a bit shiny and needs a touch up, but my brows are actually still MATT. Normally my brows and the whole "T-zone" are very oily and shiny now. But not my eyebrows. Wow! They don't rub off at all, which is almost unknown for me and my way of sleeping. As already mentioned, it dries very quickly. I had a bit of trouble applying it as I'm not used to using brow gels like this. It can be "unforgivable" if you get it wrong. But it's easy to learn how to apply and it stays on really well, even on my terribly oily skin. It seems easiest to use a thin, straight brow brush, patience, and a small amount of product at a time to apply. I would highly recommend it to anyone; Eyebrows or not, oily skin or not. (4:00 p.m. vs 6:00 a.m.)
