Overall Beauty for Everyone Rating: 4 out of 4 stars


1. Affordable: Absolutely!  At only $6.99 it is a steal.
2. Easily Available: Yes, it is available at most drugstores including CVS, Riteaid, and Walgreens, and anywhere else Milani is sold.  It comes in 3 different tones, light, medium and dark. I've purchased it twice now, and have never had a problem finding it again.  Although I've never seen the darkest tone, and and didn't know it existed until I went to the website. 

3. Effortless Application: Lets break this down tool by tool.  
-The straight edge tweezers require a little more pressure than what I would like and not particularly sharp.  But in a pinch it will do.  (Like when you are driving to work look in the mirror and notice one or two rogue eyebrow hairs).  
- The slanted brow filler works surprisingly well.  I am used to just throwing out those little brushes right away, or saving them up as disposable spares.  It isn't as firm as most slanted brushes, and it's miniature 2 inch handle makes it not as comfortable as a full size brush, but it applies powder well, with minimal fallout and pretty precisely too.
- The sponge applicator I can do without, but I generally don't use this kind of tool anyway.
-The mirror- while I like that they included it, it is so small it is pretty hard to use, especially when you have all those little tools poking out of the top.

Paddington says, "Careful now, don't poke your eye out!"

-Brow bone powder (Top) is a tad too sparkly.  I'd skip it on the brow bone but I don't mind it so much as a brightener on the inside corners.  The two tone brown powders work well together, stay put, and most importantly are easy to apply, I often do this in my car mirror right before going into work.


4. Wearable: Yes 
I am not a fan of the overly painted brow.  I think I will leave that for these girls. 

But I am a big fan of really strong well shaped natural looking brows. I think there is something ultra feminine about it. A prominent brow exudes confidence. Pair it with a red lip and you are unstoppable.

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

I have a fairly strong brow, but I do like a little help and this kit helps me get there.  Medium works well for me, especially when I mix the colors together. I think it works well for a done, but not too overdone look.

Hooray for eyebrows
