REVIEW : Nichido Eyebrow Liner Duo Kit

Hello ladies! :)

If you have read my last haul, I included Nichido Eyebrow Liner Duo Kit in my shopping bag. And after using it for a couple of times, I've decided to share my review now to give you some info that may help you ( i wish :p ), in case you are planning to buy an eyebrow kit or if you are eyeing to get this particular product. ;)

so this is how it looks like, 

and the shades,

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: The eyebrow liner is in compact mirror. It has a mini angle brush and also a mini tweezer. It comes out in a square plastic brownish box and at the back of it, it says, Nichido Eyebrow Liner Duo Kit contains two shades of easy to blend compact powder, mini tweezer and eyebrow/liner brush. Color, shape & define your brows with 2 complimentary shades of powder in 1 kit.

DIRECTION (to use): Use flat end of brush to apply brow powder. Apply dry to make brows look natural or wet for dramatic look. For eyeliner, apply to lash base. Softly follow the curve of your eyes for a perfect look. 

I've already use this product ( twice :D ) two days before doing this review. And for the sake of this review, I took some photos for you to see how it looks like while wearing it. ;)

Hello to my no make-up eyebrow look :D  

My Eyebrows with the coffee shade ( this photo was taken nighttime )

My eyebrows with the black shade ( this photo was taken daytime )

As you can see, my brows aren't that thick but somehow,  it is growing in the right place. :p (I dunno but I would always hear that from beauticians whenever I go to the salon. lol Anyways, most of the time, I just wear a thinner line on my brows and not as dramatic as seen in this pictures. :D Here, I just followed the shape of my brows.

Pros :

*the color blends easily.

*the color is quiet flexible; when you apply it dry, it leaves a soft finish; when you apply it wet, the color goes a bit intense, which is good because it could easily compliment on any type of skin tone and hair color. 

*it works good as an eyeliner ( I used it on my pics above ).

*it can also use as a substitute for dark brown matte eyeshadow ( I used it on my pics above ). :D

*it does not grease easily (in case your sweat is running on your face)

*can also use for contouring ( also, I used it on my pics above )

*natural finish

*the price is ok. P238.00 @Watsons

Cons :

*the mini tweezer and angle brush are lame. The tweezer is really hard to use while the brush is too weak.

*it's a bit powdery. If it mess up in palette, it will surely ruin the shades.

TIPS: In choosing the right shade for eyebrow; if you're blonde go to two shades darker than your hair color; brunettes should go one to two shades lighter; and if you're a redhead,picking the right intensity and tone is key. If you're blessed with raven-toned locks, however, a coordinating deep black eyebrow product can not only look too severe, but can add a starkness to the complexion as well. Instead, dark-haired beauties, smoke up. Think shades of charcoal, soft black, gray, almost black, and even mahogany, deep taupe, or dark brown. (from bellasugar beauty tips)

What about you? What do you use for your eyebrows? :)

HAUL : Get prettified inexpensively! :)

Hello beauties!

So, What did I missed? :D  It's been two weeks since I last posted here in my blog and I feel like I owe you girls a lot. :D I gotta blame the pictorial in Ever Bilena for my buzzing sched. LOL

Anyways, I can't wait to show you now the things I bought from visiting malls these past two weeks. :)

Pretty Pink and Gold Bangles

Pink+Gold = Pretty elegant. ( P175.00 @Genevieve Gozum )

 Wish Nail Polishes Beach Babe

The shades that I got are baby blue, hot pink, and ube shake. :D  The nail brush and flower designed finger/toe separator thing is really really cute. I found the colors so pretty so I decided to buy a set. ( P69.00 @Watsons)

Marionnaud Angle Brush N38

It's my first time to try one of their brushes and since I don't have this type of brush in my make-up kit yet, I decided to get this particular brush. It's called N38 Slanted Eyeline and Eyebrow double side brush. What I love about this is the tiny brush which is perfect for the eyeliner and correcting eyebrows. ( P56.00 @Watsons )

False Eyelashes

Can you believe that this very cheap pair of false lashes can be found in a local grocery store? Yes. Surprisingly, it is more cheaper than the one I found in a local store nearby our house which costs P35. :D ( P24.95 @Robinsons  grocery store )

 

Ever Bilena Pro Flawless Finish Foundation

I remember when I was asked by the marketing manager of Ever Bilena about my favorite among their product lines. I said "I'm inlove with the liquid foundation pro flawless". :D 

The funny and amazing thing about this product was I hadn't read the labels or the desription written on it's box yet, but then I told the marketing manager (and I also kept telling my friends) that I'm in love with the liquid foundation *sshhh* :D The crazy truth behind was, as soon as I bought the item, I would instantly throw the box where the bottle comes out and just proceed using it (I dunno what made me feel like always-in-a-hurry back in college days or maybe I was just too excited whenever I get new stuff :p) and when it works perfectly on my skin, then I would definitely repurchase another one. 

The amazing part is when I finally read the product's labels/description after using it for almost two years! :D Then I only have two words to say: SO. TRUE. :) ( P165.00 @Watsons )

Nichido Eyebrow Liner Duo Kit
Aside from it's gorgeous shades which are so perfect for my thin eyebrows :D and very cute mini tweezer, the ultimate reason why I actually bought this kit was because I found the deep matte brown so perfect for contouring purposes. How multifunctional is that?! So awesome, right? It's a compact powder that is so easy to blend on your face. I really can't wait to use this. :) ( P238.00 @Watsons)

HENGFANG Pure Witchery Dip Liner

As you ladies know, I've been quiet experimental when it comes to eyeliner looks. It was my first time to see this eyeliner at the store and I instantly got captivated by the design. It looks like a witch potion which I found really cute. :D I actually didn't noticed the pencil liner(the one you see on the left). But what I noticed first is the liquid liner(the one you see on the right) which is most likely made of a hard pointed material and not a brush. I've been quiet used to on working with an eyeliner brush and not this one although this one is good when you want to extend your eye lining on the corner of your eyes. You can easily work your hand with this particular liner.

The only thing that disappoints me with this product is the alcohol smell in the liquid liner part. Although it doesn't hurt my eyes whenever I apply it, the alcohol smell is way disturbing. :( I wonder how much percent of alcohol do they have to use for this product. :/ ( P57.95 @Robinsons grocery store )

So there, beauties. Another cheap buys that can somehow make you pretty! :) Btw, have you tried any of these products? How did it work on you?  :)
