Estée Lauder's Artist's Brow Stylist Mobile Essentials - any opinions?

[user2]

Hi!

I've been lemming for this thing for months right now and I want to get it for Christmas but I want to her some opinions first!

So what do you think of it??

Personally I think it's crap. The tweezers do nothing the pencil is the wrong color and the gel is too sticky.

First, I'll say that I work for EL. I would recommend it if you are just going to be using it for touchups during the day or travel. I don't think it is good enough to use all the time, I mean, I wouldn't actually pluck my brows with the tweezers, but I would love to have it in my purse just in case I found a vagrant hair. The gel works ok, and the pencil is pretty good for touchups, as well. HTHS!

I have this and never use it. I need to pull this out and play with it some more! I agree that the tweezers are terrible, but okay for a stray hair or two. I would try the pencils at the counter to make sure you get a decent color match B4 you buy. Bottom line, it's adorable, but I don't find myself using it. I think I would get more use out of it if I put it in my travel case.

To be honest I feel that anything that has to brand itself "essential" to get attention is usually eminently missable!

If anyone needs very small portable tweezers that are good enough for touch-ups then get yourself a Victorinox SwissCard

In a word...crap. Totally not worth the $25.
Tweezers are completely useless, the pencil dried up and got chalky really quickly, and the brow gel is nothing special. You can get a tube of drugstore clear mascara for under $5 and it'll be the same thing.

I totally regret buying this.
