I thought about trying it, but based in colour swatches, it's so hard to tel which one to get. There doesn't seem to be a colour that fits right to what i need-one that matches MAC's lingering brow pencil. Blonde seems too light and dark brown and chocolate are too dark.

I understand what you mean! I got dark brown, because Chocolate seemed darker in the swatches. It seems like Chocolate is just a bit warmer than Dark Brown, but I'm discovering that you can make the color appear lighter the more you blend it out... so maybe you could try that. I'm thinking about using an Ulta coupon when it hits stores and getting Auburn to mix with Dark Brown to match my brows a little better (lighten the color and give some warmth) but honestly, I can't see going back to using pencil or powder after getting this product, it's just too easy and fool proof. I want to try this as an eyeliner since I know the color is so rich and it's 100% waterproof.

Maybe i could mix blonde and dark brown...

I ordered the darkest brow gel and the catwalk palette. I should have it by Monday or Tuesday. Can't wait. I had bought the tarte brow gel, but then I found out Anastasia was coming out with one so I returned that thing ASAP.

I heard it's more mousse-like and not so creamy like mac's. That'd be great so it doesn't make the brows look stenciled on. I hate that look!

It's still VERY creamy, but the consistency overall is lighter like a mousse. I think you'd get a good color with the blonde and dark brown mix too. I barely dipped an angle brush in the pot and that was enough to fill in both brows... it's sooooo pigment rich and gives you enough time to blend and shape before setting. My brows are still in place over 24 hours later, and this is after a full night out, a shower and my nightly face wash routine.

Do you mean the regular brow gel with the brush or the new product in the pot? If you ordered the pot, I'd like to know how you like the ebony color, I find they run kind of dark

Has anyone else picked up the new Dipbrow Pomandes yet? I swear it's like the best thing ever invented for eyebrows! It took me a matter of seconds to fill in my brows and hit the door today. The texture is so creamy, and a little goes a very long way because they are SUPER pigmented. I almost passed, because I figured it wasn't much different from my inglot gel liner that I use for my brows(or any other gel liner for that matter) but honestly there's no comparison... it's hard to describe, but the texture, pigment and consistency is just ideal for the brows. And this stuff does not budge once it's set... at all! I still had perfect brows after washing my face for the night

I definitely want to try this product... but Tarte brow mousse is my go-to product and I'm almost through my jar with a backup waiting... so it may be awhile before I get around to trying this. The Tarte product is a very small jar and it last FOREVER!! Glad to hear you like it! I've added it to my "products to try" list.

That's even better! I just can't wait to get my little hands on it.

I mean the new product in the pot. My hair is dark brown, but my brows are black. Anytime I've tried a brown product for my brows it hasn't worked. I get black and with a light hand I don't look like groucho marx.

I've got a few eyebrow liner shades in the Anastasia line. But I can't ever seem to find a good match for my eyebrows. @ erine is lingering a good match for blonde/light brown eyebrows but black hair?

I ordered my dipbrow gel on Cyber Monday and received my package yesterday. The only things I've ever used to fill my brows in were powder and pencil and I was a little hesitant that I'd suck at applying the dipbrow liner but I absolutely love it! I ended up choosing dark brown and it's a pretty good match for my brows. I was torn between that one and chocolate but it looked a little too warm for my taste and I surmised that ebony would have been too dark. Looks like I made a good choice with dark brown! I only tried it on one brow but that was enough to win me over. I also received a free brow gel but I handed that over to my Mom (who just recently bought Brow Wiz in soft brown!).

With black hair you normally want your brows to be a shade or two lighter for the most natural look. Do you dye your hair black? Some women who dye their hair black like to keep their brows their natural colour, so if this is you, then yes, lingering would be the colour you'd want.

Yeah I dye my hair black, Naturally my hair is like a dirt dish blonde. I don't ever change the color of my eyebrows I just fill in sparse parts. Thank you though! I'll have to give it a try.

The dark brown is actually really dark, I think it would work fine for you. I wish they had something in between Auburn and Dark Brown... maybe a medium/light brown, because it is a really deep/dark brown, almost off black

The free brow gel was a nice surprise for me as well

I think you'll like it. I'm a light brunette with natural blonde highlights and use lingering.

See! This is exactly what they need! They're missing that inbetween shade for light brunettes!

I see on Anastasia's site they have a contour kit. It says out of stock, but I'm going to assume it's coming soon. Not that I need a contouring kit, but I'd probably buy it anyway since I've been really happy with this brand so far.

Nope, it launched today and sold out already. It'll restock next week tho.
