Pleased with product
Date:January 18, 2012
The brow compact powder is terrific. Make sure you go for the lighter shade. The shade is darker than I expected. The brush leaves a lot to be desired, it is really useless.

Still Using and Still loving it.
Date:January 3, 2012
I ordered this in May of 2010 and still using it. For those who think it's a little pricey, you will get your money's worth. I found it stays on all day and looks very natural. I often receive compliments on my eyebrows, and 1/3 or more brow is missing. They're actually seeing the brow color. I do, however, agree with most comments. They need to create a smaller, better brush.
I only give it 4 stars because of the brush. This purchase for me, has proved to be a great one.

This is the best product I have ever used on my eye brows. Looks natural and feels natural. You cannot tell that you have anythng on your brows but they are enhanced and look like they did when I was young.

Not worth it
Date:May 4, 2011
I prefer a brow brush that is stiffer than a regular eyelid brush for color. The shape of the brush was good, but the brush arrived bent (fromt the mailing box) and then did not hold up to my brow line.
Very disappointing.

okay
Date:April 16, 2011
I read the other reviews and found them helpful. I thought twice about getting this after reading about the brush problem. I'm torn in half with the product. The brush broke the first time I used it. The part that you use to for the powder just fell right off. I glued it back on. Other than that I do like the powder. I am a brunette and ordered the color for blondes and am happy with the color. I usually have my hairdresser color my eyebrows when I go in for highlights. The powder is a nice way to fill in the thin areas of the brow.

Brow powder
Date:February 10, 2011
Nice packaging, if a bit small, useless brush,
excellent color and coverage. I don't think it stays on all day, but then, what does? Nicer than a pencil, but a bit more work.

Winning product
Date:October 20, 2010
I love the performance of this product. It looks far more natural than the pencils I was using before. It stays on all day as promised. I have very thin brows and it does a fine job of filling in. I will have to agree with other reviewers to say that the applicator brush is not thin or stiff enough. I like the prep end of the brush though. I think I will need to buy this for my daughter, as she wants to take mine back to college with her! I will definitely be using this brow product from now on.

Beware of the REAL cost!
Date:July 20, 2010
I ordered the blonde shade for my very blonde brows & loved the color!
Not too light & not too dark.
One of the few products of this sort that does not present alot of red,it's much more "taupe-y", which I like.
The consistency is also very good & it does stay on without any extra product throughout the day.
On the other hand,I agree with the reviews that stated that the brush was worthless!
Plan to spend another $15-$20 for a good brush!!!
Therefore,it becomes an expensive product...just so you know.

Mixed Review
Date:July 14, 2010
The product itself seems to work well. However the brush is rather cheap and am using another brush from a drug store eye brow kit that has stiffer bristles and more shaping capability. Frankly, it is rather pricey for the small amount of product received. Need to adjust the packaging to combine the brush and the powder together to make it more portable.

Really works!
Date:June 26, 2010
I've tried so many different brow filler products as I have extremely sparse eyebrows, due to many years of electrolosis. This goes on effortlessly and doesn't make my eyebrows look like I've plastered on eyebrow powder to make them look full. Not sure if it will help grow my brows, but seeing how I've had electrolosis when I was young nothing will ever bring back my eyebrow hairs.

I have very thin brows and use an eyebrow pencil. This product filled in the pencil lines making my brows look more natural.

Good news/bad news
Date:June 17, 2010
The brunette color is excellent for my darker hair with blonde highlights. The quality of the powder is excellent. Goes on smoothly and covers well. However, the brush is basically useless for applying the product. I had to purchase another brush. It should be thinner and more firm to do the job. Also, it would be nice to have a container large enough to store the brush. I give five stars to the cosmetic product and no stars to the brush.

Bravo for Brows
Date:May 22, 2010
I have light brown hair with blond highlights, so I selected the light brown shade. It looks like a warm taupe color which appears natural on my brows. The product is easy to use (follow directions!) and looks better than any pencil form of brow filler I've tried. (And I've used some really expensive ones.)
I was less than impressed with the applicator brush. The bristle end works fine to prep brows for shading and for smoothing them again, but the angled brush end isn't of high enough quality to really be as precise as I'd like, so I ended up using a brush I already own.
Overall, I like this product; I'm glad I bought it and I'd buy it again.

needs a rework on brush
Date:May 11, 2010
I'm a redhead so I do love the color and I like the part of the brush that you brush your eyebrows with, however, the soft part of the brush (the application end), is too wide for my brows. I end up with the powder all over my brow area. Guess everybody's brows are different but mine aren't that wide.

Great Brow Liner Brunette/Salt Pepper
Date:May 11, 2010
I'm quite pleased with the liner. Easy to use, does not smear or smudge and I actually use it as an eye liner too. I found the brush to line the brow, a bit large and use a smaller one. My hair is salt and pepper, leaning more on the "salt" side, I would like to have the option of something a little lighter than the Brunette/Salt Pepper. With that aside, I'm enjoying the liner and would recommend it's use.

Great brow color
Date:May 6, 2010
What I like best about this product is the color. Most brow browns tend to be on the reddish side, but not this one. I usually use Bare Escentuals brow powder but this compact is very convenient, especially for travel (and the product doesn't end up on my cheekbones!). It does seem to add a bit of volume to my thinning brows and their overall appearance is very natural. The application end of the brush is a bit large, so I use another one I have, but as a whole, I am sure I'll order this product again.
