Juice Beauty

Tried in desert glow. No coverage at all. Just made my skin look oily

I really love this product. I was worried the first time I used it and saw the initial white cast it left on my skin (I'm naturally very olive/medium-toned) - but thankfully had read the reviews here first so expected it to pass, and it did. A few minutes after applying, I find it sinks in and leaves a nice subtle glow to my skin. I actually find I really like the thicker consistency, particularly now as it's turning colder. Makes my skin feel a bit more nourished, but I also feel more protected...like it's not just going to evaporate off my face. This is my new go-to and I'll be re-purchasing.

The product itself is pretty good. It's a not-goopy, smudge-resistant brow gel that is easy to apply and gives a nice, natural result. It's better if you have some eyebrow to work with, as it clings to the hairs as opposed to sticking to your skin and filling in gaps. I bought this in Medium-Dark, which is a neutral dark brown (no hints of red). The reason I am giving it such low marks, however, and will not purchase it again, is that I purchased a full-sized tube and got maybe 10 applications out of it before the product was gone/dried up. I thought I was imagining things, but then read a review from another frustrated customer who declared that the shorting of product was "criminal" and couldn't understand how this brand was so popular. I went to my local Ulta to purchase an Anastasia brow gel after working my way through DS options, and not finding anything remotely as good as ABH. The SA who approached me said she preferred something less gloppy and steered me toward the Juice Beauty shelves. She tried the brow envy gel on me and I was sold. I also bought a lip crayon which I now have buyers remorse over (that's for another review). The first couple of applications at home were fine, looked great....then after a week or so the brush seemed to be drier and I was really scraping around inside the barrel for more product. My eyebrows are not heavy, in fact they are about half the width/depth of what you see on Millenials. So I don't understand why I paid $22 for about two weeks' worth of eyebrows. Never again.
