Spotlight | Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil in Brown.

I have really sparse eyebrows, and there are days when I wish I had fuller eyebrows like say, Keira Knightley. That way, I do not have to spend so much time 'drawing' my brows each and every morning.

Yes, they're THAT sparse. So sparse that filling them in just wouldn't do the trick. And that is why I prefer eyebrow pencils over powders or gels.

Now here's an eyebrow pencil that's slowly becoming a favorite of mine - the Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil. Bought this a few months back from OneStephShop, the same online store where I buy my supply of Kabaya Collagen Gummies (will blog about this later).
Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil.
Here's a brief description of the product, which I found online:
Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil glides on the skin smoothly and delicately to precisely draw in individual brows, achieving perfect, defined brows. Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil has natural color and does not contain any fragrances to avoid damaging the skin. The compact size is easy to carry around in cosmetic pouch.
#3 Brown.
This product comes in four shades - #1 Black#2 Dark Brown#3 Brown, and #4 Gray. I normally go for light to medium brown when it comes to eyebrow products, hence I chose #3.
Shade reference at the bottom.
Although slightly darker than Ever Bilena's Eyebrow Pencil in Brown (the one that I normally use), this shade still matches my current hair color. The texture is also harder so it's easy to achieve precise lines, and you get a lot of color even with the softest, lightest strokes.
And here's the pencil.
Here are the swatches:
Left, swatched once. Right, swatched twice.
And how it looks like when worn:
Products Used:
FACE: Etude House Correct & Care CC Cream #1 Silky, Missha Under Eye Brightener.
EYES: Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil in Brown, BYS Waterproof Eyeliner,
Forever21 Love & Beauty Eyeliner in Dark Brown, Fairy Drops Volume Burst Mascara.
CHEEKS: Tony Moly Cat Chu Wink Tony Tint in #2 Red.
LIPS: Korres Cherry Lip Gloss in Light Purple.
What I love:
- Easy to use.
- Buildable color.
- Fills in color evenly.
- Just a little goes a long way.
- Waterproof, but nothing a good makeup remover can handle. 
- Four shades to choose from.
- Affordable price. (Got mine for just Php 150!)

What you might not like:
- Not available locally. 
(I think the stores here in the Philippines sell the 'Natural Eyebrow Pencil', 
the one with the brush at the end.)

Have you tried this product before? What's your HG eyebrow product? :)

  6. I love the shade on you. I would have never guessed that your eyebrows were thin based on your photos. The pencil makes it look very natural.

  9. I can't tell what the color looks like on you but your eyes are bright and happy so the color liner must have added something. :-)
