Ok, I usually start with my brows when I do my makeup, and I've never used a brow kit before, so for my first time using it, the instructions are fairly simple. You mix the grooming wax (which I didn't particularly care for) with the brow powder and apply to the brow. Eh...I wasn't too impressed with it actually. I felt like the brow powder was too dark and gave me a very harsh and artificial look, especially now that my hair color is lighter. And the grooming wax just made my eyebrows feel heavy and gunky. I was also a little disappointed with the price. Maybe I'm being cheap, but I could have used that four bucks for something else, but hey, trial and error, right? Now, I'm not saying its a bad product, perhaps there is a better way to work with it, but it's just not for me. At least the kit comes with an applicator brush and a set of mini tweezers. Now on to the eyeshadow!!!
Ya'll forgive my asymmetrical eyebrows...! |
First, let me start by saying, I didn't use the NYC Brow Kit in these pictures because I didn't like how it made my brows look, but I really liked the LA Colors eyeshadow! I was impressed with the fact that it was so pigmented for such an inexpensive product, and the colors were smooth and really easy to blend!

For this look, I used my Urban Decay primer potion and my NYX Jumbo Pencil in Yogurt as a base, but clearly this eyeshadow can look just as good as any other high-end makeup when combined with the right products and techniques. I think I got awesome results with this product and I would definitely consider purchasing more in the near future!
