Absolutely love this nifty little product, it really has become an essential staple for my everyday on-the-go makeup routine.
This gel definitely helps me tame and maintain my unruly eyebrows! I only use this as a brow gel at the moment and it works best when I apply it before any other product, shape and colour and then a bit more to set it in place. This usually keeps my brows in place the entire day. Personally, I prefer a more natural daytime look and thus enjoy the lightweight gel, I wouldn’t recommend this for evening makeup where one would want a slightly more set brows and a less natural look.
At a price point of about R45.00 I would say it’s great value for money that you can easily integrate into your everyday routine.
I found that this product works especially well for my brows. It keeps them neat and in place pretty much all day. I also found that this product works quite well as a builder for eyelashes. If I apply it first and then let it dry before applying my usual black mascara over it - my lashes appear slightly fuller. :)
Its a good product but nothing about it had me writing home.
It applied easily and the original newly bought see through packaging are so beautiful until you start using it for a while and it gets product in it like foundation, powder, pencil and you end up with something you which you couldn't see through.
But other than that its a good old trusty product!
It gives a very natural look and its perfect if you dont like dark mascara on your eyes or if you are scared that your make up will spoil throughout the day! If a natural look is what you are looking for this product is perfect!
Ive been using this product for more than a year now, I really love the formula . it makes my brows stay in place all day without it looking and feeling hard. the price is really good also
I have been using this product since it was first available in South Africa. I have never even bothered to try any other brands because this one is just so affordable and effective. It really keeps my brows in place without discomfort and is very well priced. It can even be used on lashes but I only ever use it on my brows to keep stray hairs at bay and the shape stays neat all day. I love this product a lot. I usually get mine at Clicks and they always have stock.
I found this clear mascara really great for keeping my brows in place. I do think a little too much of the formula comes onto the brush but overall great value for money.
I must say when I saw this product it wasn't love at first side. Well, trying it was the best thing I could have done for my eyebrow and lashes. I normally experience some irritating moment with my eye lashes because they will be all over the place and getting into my eyes. This product is just amazing and helpful and put my tinny lashes intact. I haven't tried it on my brows and will definitely do that tomorrow!
I use this on my brows only. I use it to "set" my filled-in brows. It keeps them locked in place, without making them hard. It's cost effective and last long. I like the packaging,the packing caught my eye before I even knew what was inside. Only after reading the label did I think to myself "I might need this". Definite earned a repurchase in by book!
I use this product as my last step when it comes to doing my eyebrows. After filling them in, I apply one coat of brow gel and voila! I have that perfectly groomed brow look, that lasts!
For R39 -95 you cannot go wrong with this Brow Gel! I love using it to set my brows once I have filled them in and I also use it to separate my Lashes before applying my mascara. A Total winner!
After filling in my brows, I swipe this product through them. It effectively sets them for the day while neatening up. Great value for money. (The only downside - the clear tube. The brush picks up a bit of colour each time, which makes your clear gel change colour slowly - the clear tube means you see your product going yucky. Still, for R30, I can live with chucking it out and buying a new one when it gets too bad!)
I have been looking for this for a while. I have read rave reviews about it. Clicks finally restocked and I bought one. I usually use an old, clean mascara wand to brush my eyebrows. I have very thin eyebrows (naturally), so they don't need much taming. :) I love Essence products as well as their price tags. I like this product as well. It does brush your eyebrows into place and it does keep them there for the most part. It just doesn't do anything amazing, but I guess it doesn't really claim to.
I noticed some white gooey bits in this clear mascara and when you wash your makeup off it comes off as white gooey liquid. I don't touch my eyebrows so I didn't notice if they were sticky or flaky during the day. But I find I don't need to brush them more than once. I have a feeling this will last forever as you don't use much. I haven't tried using this on my lashes as I don't see any reason for this.
