Review on πŸ–€ MINA iBrow Henna in Black - Regular Pack for Hair Coloring (Up to 30 Applications) by Keith Mertz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use works on my skin with sparse hair

Very easy to use! It worked really well on the tips of my eyebrows where my hair is very sparse and mostly skin. I decided to order this product because most of the reviews were positive and it cost under $13 so it wouldn't be a big loss if it resulted in the same experience as the negative reviews. Can't comment on longevity yet as this was my first use this morning but it was very easy to use and the color stayed on my skin as well as it did on my hair. What I did: - Used an angled brow brush and bobbin for application - For fuller parts of the brows, I mixed the henna powder with a few drops of water at a time until I had the consistency of brownie batter - For the ends of my Brows where they are thinner and the hairs a bit, I added more water until I had a liquid eyeliner consistency - I had qtips ready and I used Neosporin (I didn't have petroleum jelly or petroleum jelly so I had to get creative) on the skin above and below my eyebrows so I can easily clean any areas where there shouldn't be color - I left the henna for 20 minutes and immediately did a second application - instead of washing the dried henna after 20 minutes, As per the instructions I used a spool to clean it up just like I would do with a henna tattoo on the body. I will update my review tomorrow and now talk about longevity at this time. Update: The color has faded more than I hoped, but I've applied 3 coats in a row (2 coats each) in the morning and it's holding up a bit better now. If you take a closer look you will understand but if you just look at yourself in the mirror they look great, more like natural brows than the trendy filled/sculpted brows which I prefer. I've included a photo from this morning (a week after first use) so you can see what I mean. I'm guessing for people like me with little or no hair it will take about a week or two depending on your skin and by the latter I mean the updated photo. It's not perfect, but it's still better for me than painting them every morning, especially as summer brings warmer weather. I don't have to worry about touching up my makeup or sweating in the afternoon.

Pros
  • Easy to use and lasts up to 6 weeks.
Cons
  • Not sure
