Insta Live 3 – All about Lashes and Brows

Insta Live 3 – All about Lashes and Brows

 

In this second eye-based Instagram live, over at @gracebensonmua, we looked at lashes and brows. Here are the treatments and products we favour…

 

Nouveau Lashes LVL treatment, £39.50 (with Penny, price varies with others)

Great for: Those who like a low maintenance, curled and separated lash look.

Not so good for:  Those who like a voluminous false lash effect all the time

Penny loves it because: Not only does LVL curl, separate and lengthen your lashes because of the tinting process, but it also lasts 6-8 weeks with no maintenance except avoiding immersing your lashes in water for 24 hours after treatment. What’s not to love?!

 

Illamasqua Mascara in Raven, £18:

Great for:  Those that like buildable volume in their mascaras.

Not so good for:  Those that like different colour mascaras as this only comes in Black (or Raven!)

Grace loves it because:  It gives really intense black, volumised lashes without smudging all day.

 

Revolution Focus and Fix brow palette, £2.50

Great for:  Those who like high performance budget beauty.

Not so good for:  Those who have very sparse brows.

Penny loves it because: It comes with three brow powders, a brow wax to keep them in place, a mini pair of tweezers and an application brush.

 

Beauty Pie Super Brow Luxe Precision Pencil, £20:

Great for:  Giving hair like definition for your brows.

Not so good for:  Those who have to fill in their whole brows – such a precise, small pencil could be quite tricky.

Grace loves it because:  The really small tip makes it easy to draw soft, feather-like strokes to fill your brows.

 

MAC Eyebrows Styler, £16.50

Great for:  Those who need to fill in any gaps in their brows

Not so good for: Those who like a very strong, blocked out brow.

Penny loves it because:  The pencil is very hard and extremely thin allowing you to mimic the individual hairs of the brow. It also comes with a spookiest to brush through the brows.

 

Glossier Boy Brow, £14:

Great for:  Those who want really easy, fluffy, full brows.

Not so good for:  Those who want to use it every day – the size of it is not huge so it won’t last long.

Grace loves it because: It keeps your brows in place all day.  It can also be added over the top of other products (like Superbrow above) or worn on its own.
