If you know me…like really know me, you KNOW I’m completely obsessed with wonderfully groomed brows. I’m telling you, I’m all over every new brow product upon its release so, of course I was beyond stoked when saw that Anastasia (Yes, Ms. Beverly Hills) had completely revamped her Brow Pro Palette. The old palette was comprised of a concealer, brow wax and the 6 original shades of two-tone brow powders. Since then, Anastasia has practically doubled her choices of brow powders. Thankfully, she decided to include them all in the latest version of this palette. I can’t tell you how amazingly convenient it is for a makeup artist to have all of these options in one, compact palette. She skipped the concealer this time around but, I’m not mad at that. I’m going on record to say this palette is KIT APPROVED! Please get one for yours!
I also decided to order two shades of the ever-popular waterproof, and smudge-free Dip Brow pomades and a concealer. As I mentioned before, I have nearly every brow product but, I’ve been pretty much married to Make Up For Ever’s Aqua Brow (in #30 and #40) for the longest. I do have to squeeze it into a separate container to dry out a bit for a preferred consistency so, I was happy to try out the “ready to use” Dip Brow pomades to try to skip that step. I picked up the Dark Brown and Ebony shades and love them. I use them both alone and together. When I use them together, I use the Dark Brown shade to sculpt most of my brow, then use the Ebony on the tail. I definitely recommend these – especially if you’re oily like me! I wasn’t as in love with the Concealer, which I purchased in Shade #4. Anastasia BH promises that its concealer provides full coverage, long wear and doesn’t settle into fine lines. I think the concealer lives up to those promises but I found it to be thick and paste-like – and while it doesn’t settle in fine lines, it definitely accentuates them as the formula is extremely drying. I now only use it to perfect the shape of my brows, instead of concealing imperfections on my face. I won’t say this concealer is a complete fail but, I doubt I’ll be purchasing another.
