Have you ever tried Gimme Brow? I'd be interested to know how this compares because paying $18 for Gimme Brow causes me physical pain, but it's so good for the quick brow so I will never be able to quit it unless I find a dupe. The new Maybelline dupe apparently sucks, which is so disappointing.
I use Gimme Brow. When my eyebrows are totally blonde and transparent, it really makes them visible. I usually tint my eyebrows, though, so I use it now to just fill in the sparse areas. Other than that, it's not much different than a regular pencil. I hear people love Anastasia Dipbrow? I haven't tried it, but it's got good reviews on the internet.

I love, love, love the Clinique Repairwear Laser Focus Serum. It seriously has helped my lines and my skin feels so smooth. You need so little of the stuff so it lasts for ages.
So I changed my mind about the Bare Skin foundation. It's everything I said it was, but it sinks into every crease in my skin making my look tired and old.
It did the same for me. I was really disappointed with it. It just has a weird consistency on my skin...sometimes when I applied it, it would look great right away; other times it felt like it never sank into my skin and was just this slick layer on top. Regardless, after having it on for some time it would always dry out areas of my skin and highlight dry patches, and settle horribly.
OP: I have always had my brows waxed, and never really done anything else to them. I just wasn't sure what to do. LOL! So, I am off to Target to buy this. WOOT!
It is like a BB, CC, and tinted moisturizer (with natural SPF 30) all in one. It is supposed to be a gel/cream...that helps hydrate, and fix your complexion progressively with use. It is super light, and feels amazing on. I got the combo from QVC because the brush is included, and just the makeup alone is $30 in stores. The brush was almost the same, so it is a good deal. It is waitlisted now, but with $3 shipping, it still makes a good deal. They are only showing 4 colors now, on QVC, but there are more. It should come back soon.
I live in the desert, so hydration in a face product is hard for me to love. This let my skin shine through, but covered my redness pretty good. It is perfect for daytime, or just when you don't need a heavy face. You can build it, as well.
ETA: I tried to do a normal link, but it kept taking me to a Timewarner cable site. SO weird. This one takes you there, it is just not pretty. LOL!
I too never really got into the eyebrow game. I've been getting threaded for years and before that waxed but that was pretty much all i did. I got that IT Cosmetics eyebrow pencil thing and I was like hmmm i like this. So i'm on the fence about the maybelline one or going with the Dipbrow pomade from Anastasia.
The other thing i'm loving lately that is newish to me. Is Blinc mascara! It doesn't flake or cause racoon eyes for me which is the best!
The other thing i finally gave in and bought was a beauty blender. I fought it for a long time and I wish I got it sooner- I LOVE IT! My foundation looks great and i can even blend my concealer in like a pro.
I have 2! I'm late on the eyebrow game, but I just started using this and LOVE! OMG what a game changer, people were right all these years about a nicely shaped and filled in brow. lol It deposits just enough color/fibers to fill it in w/out having crazy "instagram brows".
I bought this yesterday. Love!! It goes on so easily and my brows look fuller, but very natural. Definitely recommend! Much better than an eyebrow pencil.

I just bought this and can't wait to try it.
I finally tried this. I LOVE it!!! It is so easy to use and it doesn't rub off during the day. My eyebrows are naturally think and practically invisible. This makes them more defined but not fake looking.
