And BEHOLD the most amazing thing I have ever used on my patchy old caterpillars E V E R R R R

my brows have never looked better

It is so fine, finer than any pencil, it fills in but not in a blocky powdery way, I am in love

happy sigh

Er. One of the colours is green....

Confused
cybbo · 09/07/2012 22:56

Yes, I was waiting for someone to notice that...it's called green but is in fact a dark brownish grey...I opted for the brown colour

Eyebrow felt tip, is it? Hmm...

cybbo · 09/07/2012 22:58

It's waterproof, smudge proof, oil proof

It's simply the best

Better than all the rest

Odd.

Anyway...

I have sparse brows, but have never pencilled or shaded. I'm afraid of the block brow thing.

cybbo · 09/07/2012 23:00

You won't get with this, tis so fine

TheFallenMadonna · 09/07/2012 23:02

In brown...

cybbo · 09/07/2012 23:03

Im getting my brows tattooed on, hopefully. But this is intriguing. Hmm...

cybbo · 09/07/2012 23:50

I'm too scared to tatoo

Yes! Thanks for the reminder - I saw the same tutorial. Can't wait to get one. My brows are sparser than everyone elses so ner.

AnnaMosity · 10/07/2012 07:07

Aha. I'd heard of this.
I use Bobbi brown mahogany eye shadow as reccyed by Assustsnt. With special brush (eBay)

AnnaMosity · 10/07/2012 07:08

I fear tattoos too. Fashions change so fast and you'll be left with last years eyebrows.

Plus is a bit tranny

QuinnFabray · 10/07/2012 07:09

According to youtube make up people, GOSH do a very similar one for a quarter of the price.

cybbo · 10/07/2012 08:14

Yes just googled that, they do. Doesn't look quite as fine but may try as I think pens are the way forward

I have a mac one. I draw a really fine line under the natural brow line and then brush through my brows with a very light brown mascara The tattoos look horrendous! Groucho stylie

MrsAlexanderSkarsgard · 10/07/2012 13:28

Anyone like me and have no eyebrows at all?

I have never had any (have several embarassing school photos where they were drawn in all wonky by my DM), had them tattooed and my body rejected the pigment so am left to draw them on, every blimin day . . .

Pinot4Pattykins · 10/07/2012 13:32

I'm willing to give it a go.

Where do I buy it? Not heard of suqqo or whatever they're called

Mally one from QVC also v good

MrsRogerSterling · 10/07/2012 13:35

Looks good, have never seen that brand before, will hunt around.

Just a funny story, my garnny, also sparse of brow has always drawn her brows on with a brown pencil, in one continuous line like a semi circle. One day realising she was late for an appointment she quickly got ready. When out she wondered why people kept staring at her, when she got home and looked in the mirror she was horrified to discover she had drawn her brows on with a bright pink lip pencil!

lubeybooby · 10/07/2012 13:38

Oh wow thanks. I really need this due to being very very sparse of brow... and I'm also fed up with having to keep putting my eyebrows back on after about 5/6 hours. Be interesting to see if it really does last!

JuliaScurr · 10/07/2012 13:44
Grin arf! at thread title
cybbo · 10/07/2012 16:32

Lubey yes it really really does last, and I have one of the greasiest faces known to man.

I got mine in selfishness but you can order from suqquu online

I will give the gosh one a go and report back with comparisons and contrasts

I've been meaning to get that Suqqu eyebrow pen for a while. I spotted the GOSH ones and got all excited and bought two different shades to try but I don't rate them actually. They are a bit wishy washy. With the Suqqu one you can pretty much draw individual hair strokes. Don't be scared of the green though. Most people with light brown or fair brows have more green in the hairs than they would care to realise! It will basically be a brown that has more ashy tones than red, which is a good thing. You don't want ginger brows, unless that's actually your colouring.

cybbo · 10/07/2012 16:50

It's weird isn't it having kittens? When I drew on the back ofy hand to test it looked like there was hardly any pigment but when it goes on your brows it just builds up enough colour to look so natural yet gives brows a really groomed look
