NYX Cosmetics Micro Brow Pencil: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz Dupe?



Ever since I discovered NYX brow products, I've been hooked.
Shown here is the micro brow pencil in black.

The pencil allows you to make thin, med, or thick strokes.
There are about 8 other shade options currently available for every hair color.
You also get a brow spoolie on the other end of the pencil for a soft look.

So here are my untamed, bushy brows. Let's make them presentable, shall we?

I'm going to start by taking the spoolie and combing through the hairs.
This makes the wild hairs that are out of place in line with your natural shape.

I like to start in the middle and trace along the natural shape.

Use light pressure when you get to the front.
You don't want to go heavy here because it can look very harsh and scary.

Use feather-like, short strokes to fill in the top arch and portion.

Don't forget to use your spoolie to soften the brows if you get heavy handed.
Taking your time is the best way to achieve the look you're going for.

If you see any bald spots, just go over that area until you are satisfied.


This part is optional but now I'm going to set my brows in place.
I love how affordable this brow gel is and how well it works.
I never have crunchy looking brows with this product. I'm in love!
I just use my finger to tap in the gel if I get too much on and...voila! Done.
It was 105 today and even in this summer heat, my brows stayed put.
I like these products equal to or even better than my brow wiz by Anastasia.

Don't forget to use your ulta coupons or points to save more $$.

NYX is doing great things for the makeup industry my friends.
