Benefits Brow Wow - Gimme Brow Review.

Benefit Gimme Brow, £17.50
 
I've had my eye set on this product for a while now. I spotted it on a US Bloggers Instagram and then had to wait a gruelling month or so for it to be released in the UK. However, the wait was well worth it because these dropped through my postbox on Friday and I can confirm, they're pretty amazing.
These are everything I wanted the Mac brow sets to be and more. This product contains little fibres in the formula so as you deposit colour on to your brows it adds little fibres to your existing hairs to make your eyebrows look fuller and thicker. Who doesn't want that? The brush is teeny tiny, similar in size to the Clinique botom lash mascara but this works ideally for evenly spreading the product through your brows and ensuring you don't apply too much. Depending on how heavy you like to go with your brows you can always add another layer, although I wouldn't personally go in with more than two. This leaves your eyebrows looking naturally groomed but a better version of themselves.
This retails for £17.50, comes in two shades - Light/Medium or Medium/Dark and most importantly for me, doesn't contain any shimmer. YAY. Mac - what's up with that? I really have fallen head over heels for this brow beauty - it's now available in stores so if you fancy a try head to a Benefit counter and ask them to apply a little for you. 
 
In the photo below I'm wearing the Medium/Dark version.

    1. Thank you :) I know, such a cool idea - they've been doing it with mascaras for a while but to put it in brow products, genius! x

  10. This looks so good - it sounded great from the promo email from Benefit.

    Your eyebrows look fantastic! I have my brows done in a salon (HD Brows), quite tempted to pick this up to use for in between treatments :) x

    1. Thank you, I'm so envious of your HD treatments, I wish I was brave enough to let someone else near my brows but a past experience has scared me off haha. I love Gimme Brow though, amazing product xx

  11. I've just bought Maybelline's BrowDrama but I'm not quite sure about it yet (I've only given it a very quick swatch so far) but I prefer the sound of this to be honest as I like the sound of the fibres to add volume to your brows. It's just a shame this is over 3 times the price of BrowDrama :(

    1. I know, it's worth the money though I promise you. I have Maybellines Brow Drama and I like it but it leaves my eyebrows feeling a little heavy and dare I say it, crusty?! Plus I definitely need a little added volume in the brow department, especially now I've ran out of RapidLash! xx

  12. Well your eyebrows just look PERFECT here!! I am thinking about buying Maybelline's BrowDrama.. Even though there are some rants about it, I've also seen some pretty good reviews!

    1. Thank you! How nice of you, the Maybelline is a good alternative if you already have quite thick eyebrows, it adds a nice amount of colour and sets them in place xx
