Sonia Kashuk Brow Definer - Taupe

I have very ashy blond hair, and I've had a hard time finding an eyebrow product that doesn't have any red tones but also isn't too dark for my fair skin/hair. I tried this based on recs from the MU Board and I'm in love! Previously, I've sampled Define-a-Brow, Anastasia's Taupe/Blond, NYX's dupe, Physician's Formula, Maybelline's Expert Eyes 2-pack eye pencils, using taupe powder to fill in brows, as well as a Benefit gel. They were all okay, but they still had something that didn't look quite natural on my face. This pencil is quite pigmented and I find that I don't need to press very hard to get a good line. It's not overly creamy so it works very well for controlling the shape, but also isn't dry or crumbly that it looks unnatural. When I was at Target, there were 2 versions of a taupe pencil, this "Brow Definer" and an automatic one, but I bought the one you have to manually sharpen. I'm definitely using this from now on, and I'm glad that it was so cheap at $5.99!

I got the shade taupe for my sparse brows so it wouldn't look so harsh. I didn't like the product at all. It's really waxy, not soft, tugs on my skin, makes my brow hair stick together, and requires a hard hand for the color to show. I had to sharpen everytime before each use because it dried up too fast even a day later, very wasteful! I would skip this brow pencil, better ones out there. I like the Shiseido and Shu Uemura brow pencils.

Why did I not try this pencil sooner??? I'm completely in love with it. I used to use the same pencil in Haze about ten years ago. Haze has more of a warmer tone. They must have reformulated because I recall them not being at all waxy or as long wearing. I was looking for a cheaper replacement of my Anastasia Brow Wiz and thought I'd give Sonia Kashuk another try. First, I love the color. It's ashy but not too dark or grey. It looks really natural and I'm sure can be used on a variety of skin tones and hair color. Second, it has a more waxy consistency but not as much as other pencils I've tried. I think it helps the color adhere better and last longer. It still glides on smoothly with no tugging or having to press so hard. I seal it with a bit of Anastasia brow gel and my brows look great the entire day. I can't remember how much I paid but I'm sure it's under $10. This has completely replaced my Anastasia Brow Wiz from now on. HG material.

I usually use the Avon brow pencil which I love. However, I wasn't paying attention to my supply and I ran out. It takes my Avon lady 2 weeks to get orders. I couldn't wait so I ran to Target to get this. I read so many rave reviews so I thought I might prefer this to Avon. That was not the case. This does not glide on. I feel like I was damaging skin and eyebrows using this. I had to push down so hard to get this product to stick. I will never use again...not even as a back up. I don't know if I just got a bad pencil or what. But it was awful!

OH! LOORRDD!! This is the most beautiful natural taupe (Grayish brown) light color that fills in the eyebrows flawlessley, Now I ave really big eyebrows and I don't tweez or anything because I like my natural shape but I have a little bit of sparse areas at the very beginning of my brows and every single product I've used looks SUPER fake but this doesn't! In fact my mom (Who has eyes that can detect any tiny bit of makeup) couldn't tell I ad anything on she just though i finally grew thicker hair at the front ^_^

If I could give this 10 lipsticks, I would - that's how wonderful this is. It's a perfect light ashy brown that blends seamlessly into my own brows. It's not too yellow, or pale, or waxy looking. I have very oily skin, and this does not wear off or rub off. I've tried so many brow products - Lancome, Maybelline, Revlon, Smashbox, Urban Decay, Clinique, Cover Girl, Estee Lauder, Lorac, Anastasia, Elizabeth Arden - this beats them all. for reference, I am NC25, dark blonde/light brown hair with golden highlights.

Fantastic-- I was trying to find a cheaper alternative to Christian Dior's Brow Styler, and this totally seems to do the trick! It's a nice light, natural color that can be easily layered and as well as go with a variety of complexions. On top of that, it's inexpensive and of superb quality! Love it!

Like the reviewer below I am recovering from the Dior BrowStyler. Great pencil but so expensive. I tried a number of brow pencils trying to replace it, this is the one! Great color, no redness at all, nice texture to the pencil & lasts for hours. It would be nice if it were a twist up rather than having to sharpen it but that is the only down side for me.

I had been using the Anastasia brow pencil with the sppolie on the other end, and I liked it but it was a little harsh for my face. I was going through some things I had never used, found this pencil in taupe and wondered if it would be too light. I tried it anyway, and I am very pleased. It fills in without being so dark and unnatural - looks soft but still defines. Best I've used so far!

Love Love Love this brow pencil! I have tried soooo many products from pencils, to mousee, to loose powder, pressed powder, eye shadows, etc. I have med brown hair with highlights and med brown eyebrows with no red in them. So many brown pencils and powders have too much red and the taupe is perfect! Fills in eyebrow area from overplucking perfectly and looks natural.

Pros:
-Price
-Easy to apply
-Easy to carry in makeup bag
-Lasts all day
-Looks natural

Cons:
-Wish it was not a pencil that has to be sharpened and instead was a twist type pencil.
