I am a real stickler when it comes to eyebrows. They HAVE to be perfect. I can't count how many times I've plucked/waxed my brows, wasn't satisfied with how they looked and grew them out just to repeat the same process.
Prior to finding Too Faced Brow Envy, I was always drooling over Anastasia's brow kit, you know the one with stencils, a brow pencil, etc. Well, I didn't want to $65 for it and luckily I found Too Faced Brow Envy for a fraction of the price.
TFBE has 3 stencils, 2 brow powders, one setting wax, one highlighter, one mini spoolie, one mini pair of tweezers, one mini slanted eyeliner brush, and one mini brow pencil. Although I like the stencils that it comes with, they're not a perfect fit for me. The brow powder, pencil, spoolie and eyeliner brush are great to achieve the brow look you want.
I recommend this to anyone that has eyebrow OCD like I do, and is looking for a similar but inexpensive option to the Anastasia brow kit.

Let me preface this by saying that I am a budding brow product hoarder. I have powders, gels, creams, pencils. My favorite combo is using a MAC Brows pencil with a matching MAC shadow, depending on my hair color at the time. Well, I am out of my MAC pencil HATE going to the mall where I live so I have been trying other things. Enter this. I have gone though two hair colors since I've purchased and have been able to find a mix for both. Redheads are out of luck. (What is with the Ginger discrimination in brow products?) I love everything but the stencils. The shapes are fierce but I would have to completely shave off my brows and draw them in...which is NOT going to happen (again...*shudder). They just don't fit my face. The pencil is too dark for me now (blonde), so that just sits there. It was nice for brow tails when my hair was darker. I love having everything together in a nice little OCD box. It still doesn't hold a candle to the MAC combo, but it's the next best thing...so far!

I love this! I took one lippie off b/c like a lot of the reviews I found the color of the powder to be a bit off and I'm not a big fan of the pencil. I love the stencils!
I was warned on the boards that stencils do not work but the Femme Fatale happened to suit me really well. I was a bit too long but I just didn't color in that far. My makeup tends to go away to some magical place by the end of the day but this stayed really well. I liked the brow wax. I also think that the packaging is super adorable for all Too Faced products.

Best palette! the blonde color is perfect for my brows although they're really bold but i still find it dark enough for me. The stencils I never use because my brows are triple the size but my mom and my sister LOVE them they say they're perfect for arching and stuff. The pencil is quite dark so i like to only fill the "tail" with it and I only dot it and then blend it in with a brush (MAC 263!) so ya the only thing is that if you are blonde or fair then the "Blonde" color is probably too dark for you!

i was out of my regular matte eyeshadow that i used to fill in the brows for like 3 years or even more. first of all, this kit is really expensive. i should say that for me, i really like both brow powders (blonde and brunette), i mix them together to get the prefect shade, angled brush is surprisingly usable. the brow pensil is good and has a long staying power, but too dark for my eyebrows, so i use it as an eyeliner. wax is ok, but i can go without it or use a clear mascara. stencils and pinky highlighter - totally useless. if they sold the brow powders seprately or in duo kit, it would be more convenient, cheaper and useful. this packaging is too big.

This is one of the few products I've ever returned. I hated the packaging; it's bulky and the little drawer is inconvenient to pull out. Apparently my brows are uneven so I couldn't use the stencils. (Nothing better than a beauty product that SHOWS you flaws you didn't even know existed, then fails to fix them. Thanks, Too Faced!) All of the colors were too dark for my blonde eyebrows and very fair skin.
PS I was really down on this brand since I was so disappointed with this brow product. However, I've since tried their eye shadows and they're really good.

I originally bought this to help me shape my brows with the help of the stencils.
The wax in this product doesn't really "set" my eyebrows so much as makes them look really greasy. I usually just use the brow liner and smear it to fill in my eyebrows.
I also don't find the powders in the box to be of any help, it says you're supposed to mix them to get the shade you need for your brows but the dark powder has a slight red tint to it which doesn't work for me.

At first I loved this palette, and I still do for the most part.
The brown has red undertones so it always looks like I have a reddish tone to my brows which I do NOT like. The stencils are amazing and so helpful. The wax is okay but I really don't notice a difference when I don't use it.
I can't comment on the lighter brow color as I dont use it. Overall ,if I had to repurchase I would just buy the stencils.

Lets see, I found that the most useful thing in this whole kit is the brow stencils. I didn't care for the wax, it seemed to make my brows look glued on my face- eww. The brush is absolutely useless to me, the bristles are too thin. The tweezers worked ok but are too small. The brow powders are ok quality but it was difficult for me to find the right mix of color. The brow pencil was way too dark and made my brows look harsh and fake. I like the stencils and use them everyday but with MAC automatic brow pencil in Lingering. The packaging is adorable though, but should never be the main reason for purchasing a product.

Pros
1. The are three brow shapes to chose from
2. The tweezers are small, but works well
3. Made my brows look amazing
Cons
2. I have a hard time making the right shade with the powder.
3. The wax works so so
I used the "girl next store" stencil which is the smallest. It somewhat fit the shape I already had. I am trying to grow my brows to femme fatale. I use Revlon brow Fantasy in Brunette

Great value on all the things you're getting in such cute packaging. I think the brow powders feel very silky and good stay power.
However, I was disappointed with most things:
-angle brush: weak and cheap
-stencil: awkward (does anybody have brows shaped like that?)
-wax: doesn't hold the hairs in place
-brow pencil: too soft and the color (reddish brown) is not very versatile
The package is very well designed and I really like the idea of Brow Envy being an all inclusive kit but I think they are brands with better formulas out there.

AMAZING product. Just outstanding.
I have rather big eye brows - wide and relatively thick. I do not think they look overpowering (I trimmed them over the years anyway) I am just the somewhat Mediterranean type with pronounced brows, black hair, black eye brows.
I can only use Femme Fatale, and I am so pleased to see it almost identically matches my shape as it is right now!
I cannot use the powder in the kit, it is too light. I have the Stila Dark eye brow powder, and this one works fine. The stencil worked fine right away, and I am not so talented with precision work normally, so it must be really easy.
The tweezer is a GREAT one, much better than my previous ones.
The angled liner brush is a really good one also for lining the eyes. Really good quality.
I am not sure if I will use the wax, or rather resort to clean brow gel again.
Overall I am SO pleased with this kit - friends had highly recommended it, and it really is amazing! I can see how my brows will be in much better shape now that I have a gorgeous stencil and can slowly shape them when I believe plucking is necessary. My friends who used the kit have perfect brows now that they used it for months - they do not even need to fill them in all the time anymore.
the only thing I regret: had I smaller brows could I experiment with brow looks. But well I like my own shape a lot better with Femme Fatale! btw a good hint is one should select the stencil closest to one's natural shape. So they rather do not advise to pluck down to a small stencil (which I would not have done anyway).
Great product!

I love this product! I never knew how to shape my eyebrows before purchasing this product. I used to spend a lot of time shading them and filling them in before I purchased Too Faced Brow Envy. I use the Girl Next Door stencil, the others are a bit too bold and I don't have enough eyebrow to pull them off. Anyway, after some practice, I have the technique down and it only takes me a few minutes to do each brow. I love how you can mix the two powders to find the right shade. I have dark brown hair but my eyebrows are a shade or two lighter than my (dyed) hair color. With this kit, I can match my brows perfectly and it looks a lot more natural with my hair color. I love the idea of stencils and I am so excited about this product! And it comes in an adorable case that stays very nice and neat. Definitely worth the price! The only thing I would change is the eyebrow wax. I would prefer it in a tube because the brush can get a little messy. But overall, its a must have.

I love this product! It comes in a really cute package, and everything stays really clean too! I use the girl next door stencil, and I love it! I never really knew what to do with my eyebrows before. i was going to buy the Anastasia kit as well, for $65, but ended up buying this one for $32, so for half the price, I think it does as good a job as the other kit. The only real difference is that the Anastasia kit comes with 4 stencils, this one just comes with three, and Anastasia kit has brow jell, this one has brow wax, which I actually like better. I'm supper confident with my eyebrows now just because I never had any idea how to shape them before.
Really cool product, use it every day! and the Girl Next Door stencil fit me almost perfectly! I just had to tweeze a little. The powder stays on all day, and makes my eyebrows look super full!
Love love love it!

I was about to buy the Anastasia kit but went with the Too Faced due to the price. Plus it came with tweezers, a spoole and liner! So for the price it was a great deal. I tried using the girl next door stencil and it made me look so weird. It was too wide set and thick. The other stencils are just to big. I'm an average girl but who's eye brows come out that far?? The pencils seemed to soft and smudgy. I liked the powers and wax and will end up using those. I doubt I'll ever get this again.

I love the Brow Envy kit! I used to do my brows with a pencil, but after using this kit I could never go back to a pencil. I thought the powder would not stay on all day, but it does! I use the "Girl Next Door" stencil. It is the thinnest one and it does not have to big of an arch. It is really easy to use because you don't have to try to create the same shape everyday, they always look the same. After applying the wax, I brush on a little powder over them and they stay all day. It gives you two different colors of powders...A light one and a dark one so you can blend to get your perfect color. I have fair skin and I use the light powder and it matches great. I will definitely continue to use this. Love it!

I love this little kit! The stencils actually worked alright for me, but I improvised a little because if I would've followed them exactly, they would have made my eyebrows too thin...yes, I have naturally thick eyebrows with a really high arch. I used the "fatale" stencil. So, I just traced only the stencil under my eyebrows, plucked, and then didn't pluck too much above my eyebrows, just where it was needed. They look amazing though! With and without the brow powder and wax, which I admit would be a little too dramatic for everyday, but the powder is good for naturally filling in those sparse areas for everyday use.
For going out, I'll be using the powder free hand, and defintely not using the stencil, just powdering in areas that need it and setting it with the wax. I have really dark brown hair and black eyebrows, and the dark brown powder in the perfect color. It looks so natural, and I have the darkest eyebrows you could possibly have and this brow powder still works. I personally haven't used the pencil yet, because I've always thought the powder works better and looks more natural, but maybe on a special night out or when I need things to be picture perfect I will use it.
The tweezers are AMAZING too! They are so precise. And the kit itself is so cute and convenient. I can easily travel with it because it's so thin and everything fits inside the case with it's own place, and it will literally last forever! This is definitely a must have item because eyebrows are so often underated in creating the perfect look, and they are probably one of THE most important aspects of the face. If your eyebrows aren't in tip top shape, that could kill any look, and this cute little kit helps to create picture perfect eyebrows.

I am very untalented when it comes to eyebrows. This kit is my HG of eyebrows. The stencils are a bit weird and take getting used to. The only one I like is Girl Next Door. I also really don't like the pencil it's too soft and smudges easily. But everything else, the powder, the wax, the tweezers and the brush on the pencil are great. This kit really makes brows idiot proof, mine look good for the first time.
