If you like a fine point brow pencil to really define and create natural strokes, I recommend both the Maybelline Brow Precise and the Mac Brow Pencil. Both are very similar and have been my "go to" brow pencils lately. I have very sparse brows and I really like a precise pencil to fill them in and shape my brows. I like a natural looking, feathery brow. Both formulas are not too creamy, but still smooth. They're also very long lasting throughout the day.
The Maybelline Brow Precise Pencil is an affordable option that comes in 4 colors. It is a mechanical pencil that does not need to be sharpened. The tip is ultra fine and has a spoolie on the opposite end. The spoolie is small and works very well. The Mac Pencil is very much the same however, it does not have a spoolie which is disappointing. If you're traveling, you'll need to remember to bring one. Mac has 10 colors to choose from and it does have more product. The Maybelline has 0.002 oz while the Mac pencil has 0.003 oz.
Overall, I like both pencils equally. They make filling in my brows easy. If you have issues finding a color match, you may have better luck with Mac's color selection. Again, I would love if the Mac pencil had a spoolie but it would not stop me from repurchasing. I have noticed that the Maybelline pencil has broken off a few times when I was using it. I haven't had that issue with the Mac pencil. Again, I don't think you can go wrong with either pencil. I really do enjoy using them both.
Have you used either pencil? What do you think? What it your "go to" brow product?
I swear by the MAC eyebrow pencil. I must have used about 3 or 4 now. I just can't find another pencil that has brown shades that don't turn out looking reddish when they're applied.

I find the MAC brow pencils to be a little stiff & the lack of spoolie bothers me! xx

I rarely use brow pencils as I have thicker brows. But I have used the Maybelline one a few times just to try and I liked it. But right now its gone missing can't find it. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Maybelline Pencil sounds terrific, I have the L'Oreal pencil but it is quite blunt so this sounds like a better option, thank you for sharing xx

I've never really been a fan of the brow pencil and opt more for a powder brow product and some clear brow gel but the mac seems quite nice

I don't use brow pencils generally, I tend to prefer powder but I'll look out for these, especially the maybelline to see if they have an appropriate shade!

It's great you use and enjoy both of these! :) I don't really do anything with my brows - I'm not a big makeup wearer, but when I do wear it to the office it helps me look more pulled together :)
ReplyDeleteI hope that you are having a lovely weekend! We have the sun back again after a pretty rainy week which is nice! :)

I just started filling in my brows and now I do it everyday. It makes a difference. I haven't tried but one IT Cosmetics Brow Power and love it. Will definitely try these and ABH.

I have used the MAC one exclusively for years, but found a color match in essence, so I switched to save some money. Maybelline has no color for me.
