Wise She Mega NYX Giveaway Entry 4 By Misha,

Hi Ladies

Today I am going to review the NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder.

I’ve been looking for something that allows me to fill in my eyebrows naturally. While browsing the makeup alleys abroad I came across this eyebrow cake powder. I didn’t expect much out of it but it proved me wrong

Here’s what I think:
The packaging says “For those movie star brows” which movie star are you talking about lol

Each palette comes with 2 shades, one slightly darker than the other. This way you can blend the powders together to create the shade that goes with your hair color.

I tried my best while clicking the pictures but somehow my camera couldn’t capture the right color

Everything you need is packed into this tiny little purse-friendly set!

I got this kit in the color 02 Dark Brown/Brown. This has 2 powder brow colors. Both are dark brown in color and pack in the right amount of pigmentation. The round thing on the left side is the brow wax.

ECP01- Black/Gray
ECP02-Dark Brown/Brown
ECP03-Taupe/Ash
ECPO4-Auburn/Red
ECP05-Brunetle
ECP06-Blonde

Price $6

How it works:

Apply a very little amount of wax on brows and then apply the powders using an angled brush this helps the powder to adhere better. Then comb the brows using the small spooly applicator and you are done.

Company claims:

Our recipe for cooking up exquisite eyebrows includes wax, tools and a pair of complementary powders, which can be customized to create the ideal shade. Each Eyebrow Cake Powder kit includes a slanted brush and a round wand to shape, style and tame eyebrows. Available in 6 different shades.

Before

After:-

You can buildup the color as dark as you want but for me I think this much is ok

My Experience:-

I fill my brows with brown toned colors most times, black looks a little harsh to me. Brown is softer and makes mistakes less obvious.
I find the angled brush too stiff. It doesn’t pick up the powder very well so I use my own angled brush.
You might initially think the wax is a bit thick. But it doesn’t feel sticky on the brows. In fact, it’s so lightweight and feels so natural
All in all I like it as it helps you enjoy neat, groomed and more-even brows.
