NYX Professional Makeup Brow Blade and Shade Nano Brow Mechanical Pencil

Their micro brow pencil? Best pencil out there. Better than the ABH brow pencils. The nyx brow blade? I am a professional makeup artist every single time I went to try to fill in my browse this would snap no matter how much pressure I was applying, even if it was just the lightest amount it would break. The actual bulk fell out of its component, and I bought three of these now and it happened to each and everyone. Because I thought maybe the first one was user error the second one maybe it was still user error, but this pencil isn't good. The shades also aren't good. They deviate from their other brow, pencil shades. So mine in their micro pencil is taupe— taupe in this one? Warm and almost brown not cool and ashy. I don't understand how this product is so highly rated because again I am a professional makeup artist and I can't get this to work on me. I cannot get it to work on clients. The formula is bad. It's fragile. The component itself is shaped in such a way that the bulk of the product falls out and once you lose the edge on it, there's no way to get it back. If you want a pencil like this— thats actually good even though its pricy? Dominique cosmetics. Same premise, but can also actually be sharpened. And the formula isnt bad. And they have a better color range than this.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The packaging is cute & the brown shade on the outside of the packaging is almost the exact same color of the actual product. I love the sleek blade applicator; it makes filling in sparse hairs and drawing small hairs super simple. It goes on very easy and the standard brush attached to pencil makes blending a breeze. Beginner friendly and also perfect for those with more experience. This just might replace my old NYX brow pencil!!

The color is really nice, but there is only so much product in the elongated tube.

Was looking forward to trying the liquid pen + pencil combo, and wasn't disappointed with the pencil formula. But after only 5 hours of wear the ink side turned my brows blue-green! My hair is currently green so it wasn't as noticeable, but it still looks Very Not Good. Maybe some other shades don't have this problem, but the Cool Cookie oxidized on my skin so bad I'm not even going to chance using it again.

I picked this up because I wanted a clean eyebrow pencil that I tend to use on my under eye for definition. This pencil was way too thin, was great for the browse, but not for under the eye. I won't buy again.
