Shu Uemura Brow Ink Review

I know my last post was about an eyebrow product that I loved, so I thought I would continue with the eyebrow thing because I found something new!

It was time to do my eyebrows again last week and the person doing my brows introduced me to this this new Shu Uemura Brow Ink product.  It is a waterproof liquid eyebrow colour and when she put it on, it made my eyebrows look so natural and full looking.  It looked so good, I had to get one.  I got the colour Palm Beige, which is the same shade that I have in the Brow Manicure and have been using it everyday since I got it.  It lasts all day and does not rub off easily.  

The product itself is quite small and would be great for travelling.  It has a thin but sturdy brush applicator which applies the ink to brows perfectly.  The only thing that I don't like about it is that I feel like a lot of the brow ink goes to waste as the brush picks up so much ink and even though I try to remove most of the colour on the side of the package before taking the brush completely out, there is still too much colour on the brush to directly use on my brows.  I usually swipe the brush the back of my hand to remove the excess colour before filling in my brows, otherwise I end up with brows that have spots of dark colour from too much ink.

I have found that this has made my brow routine much quicker, as I use this brow ink to fill in my brows and then go in with an eyebrow pencil to define the shape.  Using a pencil takes much longer for me!  I then follow with the brow manicure to hold my brow hairs in place.

I would definitely be repurchasing if and when I run out.  But I think it will last me quite a long time!

Shu Uemura Eyebrow Manicure Review

I've been using the Shu Uemura Eyebrow Manicure for the past 3-4 years now and am still in love with it.  It's basically a mascara for your eyebrows and keeps your eyebrows in place.  I have it in two colours, Ash Brown and Palm Beige.  I use Ash Brown when I have darker hair, but now that I've dyed my hair a lighter brown shade, I'm using Palm Beige.  It's perfect as it lightens my eyebrows just enough so that they match perfectly with my hair colour.

I love how the applicator is a roundish, small ball shape which makes it so easy to apply.  I do notice that I sometimes get colour on the skin outside of my eyebrow area (if that makes sense) if I'm not careful.  But that's easily fixed with a cotton tip and makeup remover or with some concealer.

I've used other brands before and found that they either didn't last long or were too glittery/shiny and unnatural looking.  Plus this works perfectly with the Shu Uemura Eyebrow Pencils that I use and love!
