How to choose?

The most important thing is to choose the right shade of the composition, which will match the tone of the hair or will be 1-2 tones different from it. When choosing a shade, you should pay attention to your own hair roots and select a product in accordance with it or 1 tone darker / lighter. Today, black eyebrows are relevant only if your hair color is black.

When choosing a lipstick color for eyebrows for blondes, rely on swatches; in the line of professional brands there are 2-3 shades of blond - warm and cold.

What to do if it's dry?

To prevent the lipstick from drying out, close the lid tightly after using the product and store it at room temperature. If the lipstick is dry, it can be diluted.

What to dilute?

Add a drop of almond oil to the jar, spread it over the surface of the product, but do not mix the composition completely. The oil will be absorbed into the product and make its texture softer and more pliable.

Which is better - lipstick or eyebrow shadow?

The preferences of women are so different from each other that it is impossible to say exactly what is better and what is worse. Eyebrow shadows have a dry texture and allow you to fill in the space between the hairs well, creating pigment. You can change its saturation with the help of layers, but the duration of their wearing is much less than the period that eyebrow lipstick provides.

The advantage of eyebrow lipstick is that with its help you can draw hairs and it will look as natural as possible (you won’t be able to do this with the help of shadows - the shadows will simply crumble). The advantage of lipstick is that it additionally fixes the hairs due to its creamy texture, does not roll down and does not lose saturation during wearing, and especially in hot or humid climates.When it's hot, the shadows "float away" from the face and stay worse on oily skin.

Verdict: eyebrow pomade is better for those with oily skin, because this product does not roll and does not “leak” from the face; for use in hot countries and regions with high humidity, while playing sports and even swimming (since many lipsticks have a moisture resistant formula).

Eyebrow pomade has been appreciated by women and young girls all over the world, and here's what they say about this cosmetic product.

The best manufacturers are professional brands. Professional lipsticks have a different texture and stay on the skin for a long time. For example, you can consider a gel base, as in Inglot and Anastasia Beverly Hills or cream matte, like MAC and Benefit. Women love both textures. They note that the gel is more natural, while the cream contains more saturated pigment.

Eyebrow lipstick, as a novelty, has managed to interest young girls and women, because it allows you to draw hairs naturally. It lasts for a very long time, regardless of the weather or the excessive work of the sebaceous glands. Girls with oily skin types are especially satisfied with the product, when not a single decorative composition lingers on the eyebrows for a long time.

There are also reviews of more budget-friendly eyebrow lipsticks, for example, women note lipstick in a stick Maybelline "Brow Drama Pomade", which does not require the use of an angled brush and is perfectly applied to the skin, creating the effect of voluminous eyebrows. Another budget favorite NYX with a wide palette of shades and excellent creamy texture. the most inexpensive product - brand lipstick Essence. Reviews of the latter are excellent, consumers note the low price and its ability to stay on the skin for a whole day. The only drawback they consider to be too dense texture, which does not allow fixing the hairs.
