Purchased this kit at Beauty Brands after having a certified Anastasia esthetician wax my eyebrows. I don't have a full set of eyebrows and the hairs are thin and all over the place. The kit itself is great because it allows a newbie like me to try all the basic Anastasia products at once. The kit comes with the stencils, angled brush, two shades of brunette which i mix to create a closer to my nature color shade. the brow highlighter is useful on days I'm on the run but I wouldn't purchase it by itself so this is why i like the kit 'cause now i know what i'll be purchasing when i run out: the wax and the duo shadows. the packaging is not bad you just have to keep the instruction matte paper inside and you will not have a mix of wax and shadows, it includes a strong magnet so it doesn't fly open or anything like that. I do have oily skin and noticed the wax stops working on my crazy eyebrows after a whole day of wearing but it's funny that even after wearing all day my eyebrows look better and better as the day goes on, as if the shadow powder blends better after a while.
Overall a great product!!!

I use this kit along with the pencil. I use the perfect brow pencil to draw the shape - then fill with a bit of wax and powder from the brows in bloom kit. Its one of those things you never think you need until you try it. Anastasia has a great specialty here, and does eyebrows wonderfully. I use the gold to highlight brow bone, gives a very sublte lifting effect for my warm toned skin.

I found this kit at TJMaxx for a very good price. it comes with two shades of brunette brow powder, a golden shimmery highlighting cream and some brow wax. The kit comes with an angeled brush, but really should have had a brow brush instead. The brush that it has is a bit too wide for me so I tend to use my own instead. I like the brow powders and find the wax helpful. I don't think that the highlighter has very good staying power. Also, the powders tend to get into the wax and highlighter making them rather muddy. Not sure the packaging was a good idea on that end. However, I do reach for this everyday and am overall happy that I got it. Would I pay full price for this though? No. I would recommend getting two shades of inexpensive matte brown shadow and using those instead. you'd get the same result.
